Shirley:
How safe is this area?
这个地方安全吗?
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,当你离开家的时候要锁好门,并且打开安全系统。但是情况不是这么糟糕。
Shirley:
Really? Do you live nearby?
是吗,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。老实说,我住在北面的两个街区之外。我还从未遇到过什么问题,虽然说近来也有出现一些入室偷钱的事件。
Shirley:
Hmm.
噢。
Teylor:
The security system should take care of that, though. The entrance to the subway is not far from here..
但是安全系统会处理这一切的。地铁口离这儿也不远。
Shirley:
That’s true. Is the neighborhood trying to do anything about the security?
对。对于安全问题这儿的邻里有没有任何措施?
Teylor:
Well, we’ve set up a neighborhood watch program. We caught a guy a couple of months ago.
噢,我们建立了一个邻里监督项目。几个月前还抓住了一个家伙。
Shirley:
All right, well, let me think about it.
好的,哦,让我们再考虑考虑。
