Danielle: They’re at it again. Those college kids next door are having another kegger.
丹尼尔:他们又在喝酒。隔壁的那些大学生又在啤酒聚会。
Nabil: That’s what we get for buying a house this close to a college. College students will have keggers and they’ll binge drink. It’s a rite of passage.
那比尔:我们买这套房子考进大学。大学生会有啤酒聚会,他们会喝酒。这是一种成人仪式。
Danielle: It’s dangerous to their health and a menace to the neighborhood, and I’m going to do something about it.
丹尼尔:酗酒对身体有害,而且开派对会影响邻居。对于这点,我要采取点行动。
Nabil: There’s nothing we can do. If it gets out of hand, we can call the cops, but let’s not overreact.
那比尔:我们没什么能做的。如果他们玩的失控的话,我们可以打电话报警,我们不用反应过火。
Danielle: I’m not overreacting. They’re college students so I’m going to teach them about the dangers of binge drinking.
丹尼尔:我没有反应过火。他们是大学生,我要告诉他们喝酒的危害。
Nabil: What are you going to do?
那比尔:那你要怎么做?
Danielle: I’m going to wait on the sidewalk and pass out flyers as people arrive. This flyer lists the many health reasons they should moderate their drinking. It’s for their own good.
丹尼尔:我会在人行道上等到来的人,然后给他们发传单。传单上列出很多他们应该适度饮酒保持健康原因。这是为他们好。
Nabil: And you think college students are going to give you the time of day?
那比尔:你认为大学生会理睬你吗?
Danielle: I won’t let them pass unless they agree to drink responsibly.
丹尼尔:我不让他们过去,除非他们同意理性饮酒。
Nabil: I have a feeling we’ll see the cops tonight.
那比尔:我有种感觉,今晚我们会见警察。
Danielle: You think the party will get out of hand?
丹尼尔:你认为聚会会失控?
Nabil: No, I think they’ll be here to arrest the crazy lady waylaying people outside of their house!
