Conversation One
对话一
Gosh, have you seen this, Richard?
糟了!理查德,你看到这个了吗?
See what?
看到什么?
In the paper, it says there's a man going round pretending he is from the electricity board.He's been calling at people's homes, saying he's come to check that all their appliances are safe. Then he gets around them to make him a cup of tea, and while they are out of the room, he steals their money, handbag, whatever, and makes off with it.
报纸上说有一个男人假装以查电表为由到处流窜作案。他进入人们家中,称他是检查居民家用设施安全的。然后他请求主人为他倒杯咖啡,趁主人离开房间的时候他偷走他们的现金,手包等值钱财务。
But you know Jean, it's partly their own fault. You should never let anyone like that in unless you are expecting them.
但是,吉恩,在一定程度上那些居民也有错。不了解的人就不能让他们这么进入。
It's all very well to say that, but someone comes to the door and says electricity or gas and you automatically think they are OK especially if they flash a card to you.
说得容易,可是有人来到门前说修电表或修煤气的话,你自然会认为他们是可信的。尤其在他们给你出示了证件后。
Does this man have an ID then?
那个男人有身份证件吗?
Yes, that's just it. It seems he used to work for the electricity board at one time. According to the paper, the police are warning people, especially pensioners, not to admit anyone unless they have an appointment.
是的,就是那样。好像他以前做过修电表的工作。报纸说警察警告市民,尤其是老人,不要让任何人进入,除非有约在先。
It's a bit sad. One old lady told them, she'd just been to the post office to draw her pension, when he called, she said he must follow her home. He stole the whole lot.
这很可悲。一位老妇人向警察抱怨说当那个人来的时候她刚去邮局领完退休金。那个人一定是跟踪她到家的。他偷走了几乎所有的财物。
But, what does he look like? Surely they must have a description.
可是,他到底长什么样子?他们一定有个印象。
Oh, yes. They have. Let's see, in his 30s, tall, bushy dark hair, slight northern accent. Sounds a bit like you actually.
是的。让我看看。他三十多岁,高大,浓密的黑头发,有点北方口音,听起来真有点像你。
