You and your mother have just arrived at the Vancouver Airport. You follow the signs that lead to the Immigration Counters. You stand in line and wait for your turn to speak to an Immigration Officer. After a few minutes, the officer signals you to go up to the counter.

      A： Good morning. May I see your passports please？
      B： Here they are. This is mine and this is my mother's.
      A： How long have you been away？
      B：About a month. I was in Taipei to help my mother prepare for her move to Canada. She's landing today.
      A：Very well, let me have a look at her immigration paper.
      B： It's right here attached to her passport.
      A：I'm going to date it, and also stamp your passports. You can now claim your luggage and proceed to the Customs Office.
      B：Thank you.

      你母親剛抵達溫哥華機場。你跟指示牌到移民局的櫃枱去。你們排隊輪候見移民官。幾分鐘後，有一官員叫你往櫃枱去。
      甲：早上好，請讓我看你們的護照。
      乙：就在這裏。這是我的護照，這是我母親的。
      甲：你們離開多久了？
      乙：大約一個月。我往台北幫助母親準備前來加拿大。她今天是以移民身份登陸的。
      甲：很好，讓我看看她的移民入境文件吧。
      乙：文件就夾在她的護照裏。
      甲：我會在你們的護照上寫上日期和打印。你們現在可以去領取行李，然後到海關辦事處去。
      乙：謝謝。
