Shirley:
How safe is this area?
這個地方安全嗎?
Teylor:
Oh, well, you should lock the doors and turn the security system on when you leave, but it really isn’t too bad.
哦,當你離開家的時候要鎖好門,并且打開安全系統。但是情況不是這么糟糕。
Shirley:
Really? Do you live nearby?
是嗎,你住附近?
Teylor:
Yes. As a matter of fact, I live about two blocks north. I’ve never had any problems, although there have been a few break-ins recently.
是的。老實說,我住在北面的兩個街區之外。我還從未遇到過什么問題,雖然說近來也有出現一些入室偷錢的事件。
Shirley:
Hmm.
噢。
Teylor:
The security system should take care of that, though. The entrance to the subway is not far from here..
但是安全系統會處理這一切的。地鐵口離這兒也不遠。
Shirley:
That’s true. Is the neighborhood trying to do anything about the security?
對。對于安全問題這兒的鄰里有沒有任何措施?
Teylor:
Well, we’ve set up a neighborhood watch program. We caught a guy a couple of months ago.
噢,我們建立了一個鄰里監督項目。幾個月前還抓住了一個家伙。
Shirley:
All right, well, let me think about it.
好的,哦,讓我們再考慮考慮。
