（13）。Making a Telephone Call 打电话（1）     The telephone system in the United States, as in many other countries, has a special number for each region of the country. It is called as "area code". If you know the area code and the phone number, it's usually cheaper to dial the number yourself. Of course, you must go through an operator to make person-to-person or cllect calls. You can dial direct to many countries     overseas or you can ask for the overseas operator.     1.A：Operator.     B：I'd like to make a collect call to Los Angeles. That's area code 213-486-2435.     A：And what's the name of the person you want to speak to？     B：Susan Greene.     2.A：Operator.     B：Yes, Operator. I'd like to place a person-to-person call to Chicago. The number is     932-8647, but I don't know the area code.     A：Who do you want to speak to？     B：I'll speak to anyone at extension 214.     3.A：Operator.     B：I want to make a person-to-person call to 212-836-1725.     A：And the name of the person you're calling, please？     B：Ed Cooper.
