501　Cab for Inmates 囚犯叫的出租车

While working at a maximum-security prison, I was assigned to the guest area one day to monitor the inmates and their visitors. I received a call from the reception desk, and was told there was a cab out front, probably waiting for one of the visitors. Sticking my head into the room, I announced, “Did anyone call for a cab?” About 40 inmates immediately raised their hands.

我在一座具有最高安全设施的监狱工作。有一天被指派到接待区去监控囚犯和他们的访客。我接到一个从前台打来的电话，说有一辆出租车在前面，可能是等哪一个访客。我把头伸进屋子问：“有人叫了出租车没有？”马上有大约40个囚犯举起了手。
