地道美語聽力播客653:學(xué)習(xí)消防安全知識（雙語）

The apartment manager asked all of the tenants to come to a short meeting to learn about fire safety. I didn’t want to go, but the manager said that there would be free food, and who am I to turn down free pizza?

公寓管理人員要求所有房客來開一個簡短的關(guān)于學(xué)習(xí)消防安全的會議。我不想去，但是管理員說那兒提供免費食物，有免費的披薩，我怎么能夠拒絕呢?

...

Apartment manager: Thank you all for coming to this meeting about fire safety. With the rash of fires in this neighborhood recently, it seemed like a good idea to talk about fire safety with all of you.

公寓管理員：感謝大家能夠參加這次關(guān)于消防安全的會議!鑒于最近附近發(fā)生的數(shù)起著火事件，與大家一起討論一下消防安全問題是個不錯的想法。

I want to make sure we comply with the fire code, so I’ve installed new smoke alarms or replaced the batteries in the older ones in each apartment and in the hallways. The fire escapes are in good condition and there are fire extinguishers in each hallway.

希望大家遵守消防規(guī)則，每一層公寓和走廊里，我已經(jīng)安裝了新的煙霧警報器，換掉舊的里面的電池。消防通道暢通無阻，每個走廊都有五個滅火器。

Your job is to keep the inside of your apartments safe. Keep flammable items away from the fireplace and don’t overload your electrical outlets. Any questions? If not, we’re ready for a fire drill.

你們的任務(wù)就是保證你們公寓里面的消防安全。易燃易爆品遠離壁爐，別過度使用大功率電器。還有什么問題嗎?如果沒有，我們準備進行一次消防演習(xí)。

...

Nobody told me there would be fire drill. I’m guess I’m ready to stop, drop, and roll – as long as I can take the pizza with me.

沒人告訴我有消防演習(xí)啊，我想只要我能帶著披薩，我還是會停下、蹲下、匍匐前進的。
