【在生活中學習語言】Paying a Ticket 繳罰單
2008年10月12日蘋果日報
Customer︰I received a traffic ticket today for running a red light. Can I pay the fine here?
顧客︰我今天因為闖紅燈被開了一張罰單。我可以在這裡繳罰款嗎？
Clerk︰Yes, but you can't pay it today. We don't have record of your ticket in our computer system yet. You'll need to come back in five days.
行員︰可以，不過您今天無法繳費。我們電腦系統裡目前還沒有您罰單的檔案。您必須5天後再來繳費。
Customer︰Five days? I won't be in town then. Is there any way that I can pay the fine today?
顧客︰5天？但我那時不在城內耶。有沒有其他方式可以讓我在今天繳罰款？
Clerk︰You can go to the Traffic Adjudication Office on Roosevelt Road.
行員︰您可以到羅斯福路上的交通事件裁決所去繳費。
