Daniel is trying to arrange car insurance on the telephone.
Woman: And will you be wanting comprehensive cover?
Daniel: Well, it's a brand-new car.
Woman: OK, with full cover. If the car is stolen within the first year or if it's a complete write-off, we'll replace it with a new car of the same make.
Daniel: Right.
Woman: Maybe, you'd like to fill out a proposal form online. If that's acceptable, we'll issue you with a cover note.
Daniel: And the premium?
Woman: OK. A high voluntary excess will bring the premium down. And then it depends on how many people will be driving the car.
Daniel: I see.
Woman: You can get a quote online if you want one quickly.
Daniel: Great! I'll do that.
Explanations:
will you be wanting...- the woman's choice of the future continuous makes the question sound more polite.
