128　An Incident 一个事故

Following the birth of my second child, I called our insurance company to inquire about my short-term disability policy. “I just had a baby,” I proudly announced to the representative. “Congratulations! I'll get all of your information and activate your policy,” she assured me. After taking down basic facts like my name and address, she asked, “Was this a work-related incident?”

生完第二个孩子以后，我给保险公司打电话，请求短期伤残保险金。我骄傲地对保险代表说：“我刚生了一个孩子。”她说：“祝贺你！我会记录你的全部信息，并且启动你的保险待遇。”在她记录完我的基本情况，如姓名、地址等之后，她问我：“这个事故是和工作有关的吗？”
