[00:00.05]I went to visit my old friend, Mina, whom I hadn’t seen in several years. It was one of the strangest afternoons of my life! [00:07.62]Hi, Mina, it’s really good to see you. Dan, come in. Hurry! [00:13.22]Uh, okay. Why do you have four locks on your door, and why are all of the curtains drawn? [00:20.25]I like my privacy. And anyway, I think there’s a peeping Tom around this apartment building and I don’t want him to get a peek into my apartment. [00:28.34]Oh, okay. I noticed that your name isn’t on your mailbox. I wasn’t sure I had the right apartment number. [00:35.93]Do you think I would voluntarily give people that information? They are constantly trying to invade my privacy. All I want is anonymity, [00:44.70]but I have to be on guard all of the time. These days, I only give out personal information on a need- to-know basis. [00:51.42]No offense, but isn’t that a little paranoid? You act as though everybody is out to get you. [00:57.33]Aren’t they? Haven’t you noticed? We constantly have to disclose our most personal information on forms and to anyone who comes to our door. [01:06.41]If I didn’t know you were coming today, I wouldn’t have opened my door at all. [01:10.08]You mean you live here in seclusion, like a hermit?Of course not! I have plenty of friends. Come and meet them all. [01:18.23]Wow, you must have 10 birds and 20 cats!Yes, that’s right. [01:24.20]But, rest assured, none of them will breathe a word of what you say here today!

I went to visit my old friend, Mina, whom I hadn’tseen in several years. It was one of the strangestafternoons of my life!

我去拜訪我的老朋友，米娜，我已經(jīng)幾年沒(méi)有見(jiàn)過(guò)她了。這是我生命中最奇怪的下午之一!

Dan: Hi, Mina, it’s really good to see you.

嗨，米娜，很高興見(jiàn)到你。

Mina: Dan, come in. Hurry!

丹，進(jìn)來(lái)，快點(diǎn)!

[Dan: Uh, okay. Why do you have four locks on your door, and why are all of the curtainsdrawn?

嗯，好的。為什么門(mén)上有4把鎖?為什么所有的窗簾都要拉上?

Mina: I like my privacy. And anyway, I think there’s a peeping Tom around this apartmentbuilding and I don’t want him to get a peek into my apartment.

我喜歡我的隱私。反正，我覺(jué)得這個(gè)公寓大樓周圍有一個(gè)偷窺者，我不讓他窺視到我的公寓。

Dan: Oh, okay. I noticed that your name isn’t on your mailbox. I wasn’t sure I had the rightapartment number.

哦，好的。我注意到，你的郵箱上沒(méi)有你的名字。我不知道我手上的公寓號(hào)碼是否正確。

Mina: Do you think I would voluntarily give people that information? They are constantlytrying to invade my privacy. All I want is anonymity, but I have to be on guard all of thetime. These days, I only give out personal information on a need- to-know basis.

你覺(jué)得我會(huì)主動(dòng)給人們那樣的信息嗎?他們不斷嘗試入侵犯我的隱私。我只想匿名，但我一直都得小心。這些天，我只在必要的時(shí)候才透露我的個(gè)人信息。

Dan: No offense, but isn’t that a little paranoid? You act as though everybody is out to getyou.

沒(méi)有冒犯的意思，但那是不是有點(diǎn)偏執(zhí)?你的行為好像每個(gè)人都想抓你。

Mina: Aren’t they? Haven’t you noticed? We constantly have to disclose our most personalinformation on forms and to anyone who comes to our door. If I didn’t know you were comingtoday, I wouldn’t have opened my door at all.

難倒不是嗎?你有沒(méi)有注意到?我們不得不在填表的時(shí)候披露我們的個(gè)人信息或任何人來(lái)到我們家的人。如果我不知道你今天來(lái)，我根本不會(huì)打開(kāi)我的門(mén)。

Dan: You mean you live here in seclusion, like a hermit?

你的意思是你像一個(gè)隱士住在這里，隱居?

Mina: Of course not! I have plenty of friends. Come and meet them all.

當(dāng)然不是!我有很多朋友?？靵?lái)見(jiàn)見(jiàn)他們。

Dan: Wow, you must have 10 birds and 20 cats!

哇，你肯定有10只鳥(niǎo)和20只貓!

Mina: Yes, that’s right. But, rest assured, none of them will breathe a word of what you sayhere today!

是的，說(shuō)對(duì)了。但是，放心吧，它們都不會(huì)說(shuō)出你今天在這里說(shuō)過(guò)的話!
