Checking the Car

检查车辆

Kathy and Evan are inside the customs building.

凯西和艾凡在海关大楼里面。

K:Gee, do you think there's any problem?

凯西:咦，你想有任何问题吗？

E:I hope not! We're not doing anything wrong. She said our papers are in order, and we're not carrying any contraband. I guess she meant what she said. They're just doing a random search.

艾凡:希望没有！我们没有做错任何事。她说我们的文件都没问题，况且我们也没有携带任何违禁品。我猜她说话算话，他们只是在做一项抽查而已。

K:I don't see anyone else's car being pulled over.

凯西:我没有看到其它人的车子被拦下来。

E:Well, we'll find out soon enough. Hey, look, Kathy! There are two officers looking through our car.

艾凡:嗯，我们很快就会知道了。嘿，凯西，瞧！有两名海关官员在检查我们的车子。

K:Are they looking in our suitcases?

凯西:他们是不是在检查我们的行李箱？

E:No, just the car. One is looking under the hood, and the other one is looking in the trunk.

艾凡:没有，只检查车子。一名海关官员检查引擎罩下面，而另外一名官员则检查后车箱。

K:Maybe they're searching for drugs. A lot of young people use drugs these days. We're from the States. Maybe they think we're drug dealers.

凯西:也许他们在搜查毒品。时下有许多年轻人嗑药。我们是美国人。也许他们认为我们是毒贩。

E:Do we look like drug dealers?

艾凡:我们看起来像是毒贩吗？

K:Who knows? Maybe they're just being careful. How long do you think they'll take?

凯西:谁知道呢？他们也许只是小心罢了。你认为他们会花多久的时间呢？

E:She said about 10 minutes. Oh, look! Now one of the officers is leaving. The other one is looking under the seats.

艾凡:她说大概十分钟左右。哦，瞧！有一名官员现在走开了。另外那个在检查车椅下面。

K:Gee, this is kind of scary.

凯西:天啊，这真有点吓人。

E:We didn't do anything wrong, so we have nothing to fear.

艾凡:我们没有做错任何事，所以没有什么好怕的。

K:Yeah, you're right. Denmark is a civilized country. We have nothing to fear.

凯西:是啊，你说的对。丹麦是一个文明国家。我们没有什么好怕的。
