475　If you hurry you can still make it 如果你赶紧，还能赶得上

I was late for work when the red lights flashed behind me. Knowing I was busted, I pulled over and waited with license and registration in hand. As the trooper wrote out the ticket, he asked me where I was headed. “I'm late for an important 7:30 meeting,” I said. The officer checked his watch. “If you hurry,” he remarked, “you can still make it.”

我上班要迟到了，后面还跟来了闪着的红灯。我知道完了，就停到路边，手里拿着驾驶执照和注册证明等着。警察开完罚单，问我往哪里去。我说：“我7点30分有一个重要的会议，来不及了。”警察看了看手表说：“如果你赶紧，还能赶得上。”
