地道美語聽力播客954：防護措施做到哪樣，小偷才不會來？

Martin: Why do you look so upset?

馬?。耗阍趺催@么失落?

Joselyn: Our neighbor’s house was broken into last night. The burglar stole her laptop and some jewelry. Like us, she doesn’t have a security system.

約瑟琳：昨晚鄰居家失竊了。丟了筆記本電腦和一些首飾。和我們一樣，她也沒有安裝安保系統(tǒng)。

Martin: Burglar alarms aren’t foolproof. Well, I’m not letting any burglars get close to our house. Let’s go.

馬?。悍辣I報警器也不能確保萬無一失。好了，我不會讓任何小偷靠近咱們的房子的，我們走吧。

Joselyn: Where are we going?

約瑟琳：去哪兒?

Martin: To the home improvement store. We need to buff up our security. I want to install motion detectors, floodlights, and security cameras to the outside of the house.

馬?。杭揖友b飾店。我們需要增強家里的防護。我打算在屋外安裝探測器，探照燈還有攝像頭。

Joselyn: I suppose that’s a good idea.

約瑟琳：好主意。

Martin: I also want to put a timer on our indoor lights and a better deadbolt for the front door.

馬丁：我還想給室內(nèi)的燈安裝一個計時器，在大門加一道更加結(jié)實的門閂。

Joselyn: Those will probably help.

約瑟琳：會很管用的。

Martin: We can find out the cost of metal bars for the windows and a security door.

馬?。何覀円部梢钥纯创皯羯涎b上金屬欄和裝上安全門要花多少錢。

Joselyn: Whoa, I think that might be a bit much.

約瑟琳：哦，我想得花不少錢。

Martin: Nonsense. If we’re going to do something, we’re going to do it right. Barbed wire on top of our fence would probably be next…

馬丁：那還用說。既然要做一件事，那就要做好。下一步給咱們家籬笆圍上鐵絲。

Joselyn: That’s not a good idea…

約瑟琳：那就不好了。

Martin: And last but not least, we’ll need an attack dog.

馬?。鹤詈螅覀円B(yǎng)一只警犬。

Joselyn: An attack dog?! This is sounding more like a military compound than a home.

約瑟琳：一只警犬?那倒像是個警局,而不是家了。

Martin: That’s right. When I’m done, Fort Knox will have nothing on us !

馬?。簺]錯。等我的杰作完工，就連諾克斯堡也拿我沒法兒!
