答案：

SECTION A CONVERSATIONS Conversation 1

M: Hello. I need to talk with someone about my driver's license.

W: Yes. How may I help you? Do you have a driver's license, or do you

need to get one? M: Well, I'm not sure. You see, I have an international

driver's

license.

W:

Uh-huh.

And

how

long

will

you

be

staying

in

the

United States? M: Probably four years, until I finish my degree.

W:

Oh.

Then

you

will need

to

get

in

Arizona

driver's

license.

M:

Do

I

have to take a driver's test to do that?

W: Yes, you do. You need to come in and take a written exam and an eye

exam, and then you need to take a road test with a parallel parking test.

Did you say that you are a student?

M: Yes, I'm a student at the university. I don't have an ID with me, but I

can go and get it.

W: Okay. Then you can apply for a limited license. Just come back and

show

your

student

ID,

and

you

can

apply

for

a

five-year

license.

The

limited license

only

costs

you

ten

dollars.

A

regular

license would

cost

you a lot more than that, but it is valid for more than five years.

M: Why can't I just use my international driver's license?

W:

You

could

if

you

were

just

visiting

a

lot

less

than

a

year.

But

as

a

student, you will be temporarily residing in our state.

M: Okay. So that's why my friend can use his international license; he is a

tourist.

W: Right.
