[originaltext]W: I want to buy one thousand dollars’ worth of traveller’s check

W: I want to buy one thousand dollars’ worth of traveller’s check here, but I don’t know it clearly. Can you tell me about it?
M: Sure. It’s money but it’s not money.
W: Why?
M: In fact, the traveller’s check is a type of personal check that people all over the world have agreed to honor. In another word, it’s a piece of paper you use instead of cash.
W: What do you mean when you say it’s not money?
M: If you lose the checks, the value will not be replaced because they cannot be cashed by anybody but the owner of the checks.
W: What can I do if my checks are lost or stolen and my signature is copied?
M: You can call us or any branch of our bank immediately and report the numbers. We’ll direct you to the nearest location where you can get a full refund or new checks.
W: I see. Would you please tell me how to spend them?
M: Well, you can cash them in any bank, hotel, most restaurants, most shops and department stores — if you purchase items there, or you can buy tickets with them in most theaters and cinemas.
W: Thank you. It’s more comfortable for me to travel with checks than with cash.
