2017公共英语考试PETS2对话练习（二十八）

Back at the police station

Cop: We nailed ’em!

Paul: Yes! That’s great! When can we identify them?

Cop: In a few minutes. We found $3,150 and the van. But it looks like they sold Wei’s passport.

Paul: She’s not going to like that.

Cop: Don’t worry. We can get that back.

Paul: You guys have been such a big help.

Cop: I just don’t like seeing young kids like you get ripped off.

Paul: Thanks a million. Wei wants to go take a look at those guys.

回到警察局

警察：我们逮到他们了!

保罗：太好了!我们何时可以指认他们?

警察：再一会儿。我们找到了三千一百五十美元，还有厢型车。不过他们似乎把小薇的护照卖掉了。.

保罗：她肯定不会喜欢这个消息。

警察：别担心。我们会找回来的。

保罗：你们真的帮了大忙。

警察：我只是不想看到你们这些年轻人被洗劫一空。

保罗：太感激了。小薇想去看那些家伙。

重点解说：

★ nail (v.) (口)抓住，捕获

★ be such a big help 帮了大忙

★ rip off 洗劫一空，敲竹杠
