對(duì)話

Have you seen this?

你看過(guò)這則報(bào)道了嗎?

What?

什么?

They killed another hostage.

他們又殺了一個(gè)人質(zhì)。

Oh, how awful.

噢，太可怕了。

What a terrible thing to do.

這種事真令人發(fā)指。

I agree completely.

我完全同意。

I just don't understand what's wrong with them.

我真是搞不懂他們有什么毛病。

Don't they have any humanity?

他們一點(diǎn)人性都沒(méi)有嗎?

Well, maybe they've got a point.

哦，也許他們有他們的道理。

I mean, I suspect that they think the same about us.

我猜他們的想法就跟我們一樣。

Yes, but that doesn't make them right, does it?

是，不過(guò)這并不表示他們是對(duì)的。

Just because they think so?

他們只因?yàn)橄脒@么做，就可以這么做嗎?

I guess not.

當(dāng)然不是。

My view is that we should give in to their demands, so that innocent people can stop gettingkilled.

我的意思是，我們應(yīng)該接受他們的要求，這樣無(wú)辜的人就不會(huì)被殺了。

Come on, you can't be serious!

拜托，你不是說(shuō)真的吧?

We should never give in to terrorist's demands, otherwise where would we be?

我們絕對(duì)不能接受恐怖分子的要求，否則我們?cè)趺崔k?

Well, that's probably true, but I don't think we should be dogmatic about it.

嗯，這么說(shuō)也許沒(méi)錯(cuò)，不過(guò)我覺(jué)得我們不應(yīng)該固執(zhí)己見(jiàn)。

A colleague of mine was kidnapped once, so perhaps I have a different view of things.

我有一位同事被綁架過(guò)，所以我對(duì)于事情的看法可能不太一樣。

Really? What happened?

真的嗎?怎么回事?

Well, it was in the Balkans during the war.

嗯，那時(shí)候巴爾干半島在打仗。

He was only held for three days, and then they simply released him.

他只被挾持了3天，然后就被釋放了。

It was a case of mistaken identity, and they just let him go when they found out he was no useto them.

他們認(rèn)錯(cuò)了人，所以等他們發(fā)現(xiàn)他沒(méi)什么用處時(shí)，就把他給放了。

It was lucky they didn't kill him.

所幸他們沒(méi)有殺了他。

Oh, sure.

噢，是啊。
