社交生活篇：找物业（4）（在线收听）

A: I'm Janet Smith in apartment 23. Is this the apartment manager?

B: Hello. What can I do for you today?

A: My living room window is broken.

B: Are you serious? Do you know what happened?

A: I am not really sure, because I was out when it occurred.

B: Do you have any idea who might have been behind this?

A: Something tells me it might be some of the kids in the complex.

B: What led you to think it might be the kids in this building?

A: I found a baseball near the broken glass.

B: Well, you can't ignore a baseball in your living room, can you?

A: I saw them in the lot just before I went out.

B: Do you know any of them?

A: No, I didn't pay any attention to who they were.

B: I'll call the window repairman, but it'll probably take a couple of days.

A: I could get fast service if I call a friend of mine.

B: I don't have a problem with that. Let me look at the damage first.

A: Okay, I'm waiting for you. But who does my friend give the bill to?

B: Since the kids broke it, your friend can bill me.

A: Whew! I was worried that I would have to pay for it.

B: Believe me, if I find out which kid broke the window, I'll bill his parents.

A:我是23号公寓的珍妮特·史密斯。这是公寓经理吗？

B:你好。我今天能为你做什么？

A:我客厅的窗户坏了。

B:你是认真的吗？你知道发生了什么事吗？

A:我不太确定，因为事情发生时我不在家。

B:你知道谁可能是幕后操纵者吗？

A:我觉得可能是大楼里的一些孩子。

B:是什么让你认为可能是这幢楼里的孩子们？

A:我在碎玻璃附近发现了一个棒球。

B:嗯，你不能忽视客厅里的棒球，是吗？

A:就在我出去之前，我在停车场看到了他们。

B:你认识他们吗？

A:不，我根本没注意他们是谁。

B:我会打电话给窗户修理工，但可能要几天时间。

A:如果我打电话给我的朋友，我可以得到快速的服务。

B:我没问题。让我先看看损坏情况。

A:好的，我在等你。但是我的朋友把账单给谁了？

B:既然孩子们把它弄坏了，你的朋友可以给我开账单。

A:哇！我担心我会为此付出代价。

B:相信我，如果我发现是哪个孩子打破了窗户，我会给他的父母开账单。
