Apartment Manager: This is the one-bedroom apartment we have for rent. Let me show you around.

公寓管理員：這是我們要出租的單人公寓，讓我?guī)戕D(zhuǎn)轉(zhuǎn)。

Sherin: Wait! Did you see that? It looked like a mouse or a rat.

謝林：等一下，你看到了么?像是有一只老鼠。

Apartment Manager: There aren’t any rodents or any other vermin in this apartment complex. I make sure of that.

公寓管理員：我確定，這座公寓大樓不會存在任何鋸齒類動物和害蟲。

Sherin: Are you sure?

謝林：你肯定嗎?

Apartment Manager: Sure, I’m sure. Only last month, I bought some mousetraps and rat poison and got rid of them all. This complex is rodent-free.

公寓管理員：我當(dāng)然確定。就在上個月，我買了一些捕鼠器和老鼠藥，已經(jīng)把它們一網(wǎng)打盡了，現(xiàn)在這個公寓大樓沒有老鼠的。

Sherin: Oh, I see.

謝林：哦，是這樣啊。

Apartment Manager: And the month before that, we had roaches, ticks, and fleas, but I fumigated and they’re gone.

公寓管理員：一個月前，我們這有蟑螂，虱子，跳騷，但是我用煙熏消毒，把他們都消滅了。

Sherin: You called a pest control company?

謝林：你讓害蟲防治公司來處理的嗎?

Apartment Manager: I didn’t need a pest control company to get rid of a few bugs. I did it myself.

公寓管理員：我不需要害蟲防治公司來消滅幾個蟲子，我自己就做了。

Sherin: Oh, okay.

謝林：額，好吧。

Apartment Manager: And six months ago, we had bedbugs, but thanks to my diligence, they’re gone, too. So you want to see this apartment or don’t you?

公寓管理員：并且6個月前，我們這還有臭蟲，不過我已經(jīng)努力將他們也都消滅了。那么你還想不想看看這家公寓呢?

Sherin: I think I’ll pass. This conversation is making my skin crawl.

謝林：我不想看了，這段對話讓我毛骨悚然。
