tips：

①May I help you? 服务业从业人员的常用语，表示“有什么可以为您效劳的吗？”相当于What can I do for you?/Is there anything I can do for you? 这三种都是稍微比较正式的表达。口语一点的我们就直接说Do you need my help?/Do you need a hand?

②confirm flight reservation “确认航班预订情况”。对话中出现的乘机时的常用短语还有：flight number（航班号），date of departure（出发日期），reservation list（预定名单）。

③bound for表示“开往，前往……的”，一般作表语。

I would be very thankful if you could reserve for me a ticket for the train bound for Wuhan tomorrow morning.

若你能为我预订一张明早上海开往武汉的火车票，将不胜感激。
