题干
Officer: Good morning. What can I do for you?
Louise: I want to report a theft. I had some things stolen out of my bag yesterday.
report a theft，这里的report是报案的意思，即报一个偷盗案。
stolen是steal（偷盗）的过去分词，大家一起来念起来：steal、stole、stolen。
have sth. done，有两种用法对应不同的意思：①请/派别人完成某事，举例子：We had the machine repaired. 我们请人把机器修好了。He had his hair cut. 他（请人给他）理发了。②遭受某种不幸，举例子：Yesterday I had my wallet stolen.昨天我的钱包被偷了。在本文中是第二种意思哈。
Officer: I’m sorry to hear that. Right, so I’ll need to take a few details. Can I start with your name?
take a few details，获取一些详细信息
Louise: Louise Taylor.
Officer: OK, thank you. And are you resident in the UK?
resident，名词，居民，注意发音是[ˈrezɪdənt]，而不是[ˈresɪdənt]
Louise: No, I’m actually Canadian, though my mother was British.
Canadian 加拿大人，British 英国人。
注意，题干中问Nationality应该填Canadian，而不是Canada，这个是知识点，经常会考。
Canadian的发音也要留意一下，没有答对是因为对发音不熟悉，[kəˈneɪdiən]。
Officer: And your date of birth?
date of birth，出生日期
Louise: December 14th, 1977.
注意一下日期的书写方式，有两种，另一种是14(th) December, 1977.
Officer: So you’re just visiting this country?
Louise: That’s right. I come over most summers on business. I’m an interior designer and I come over to buy old furniture, antiques you know. There are some really lovely things around here, but you need to get out to the small towns. I've had a really good trip this year, until this happened.
on business，因公出差
interior designer，室内设计师
furniture，家具，不可数名词，不加s，要表达一件家具时，可以说 a piece of furniture 或 an item of furniture
antique，古董，这里指古董家具，与old furniture是近义词。
get out to，是外出到哪里，与get out of 从哪里出去，是完全不一样的意思，需注意。
Officer: OK. So you’ve been here quite a while?
Louise: Yes, I’m here for two months. I go back next week.
Officer: So may I ask where you’re staying now?
Louise: Well at present I've got a place at Park Apartments, that’s on King Street. I was staying at the Riverside Apartments on the same street, but the apartment there was only available for six weeks so I had to find another one.
at present，目前
get a place，找到一个地方，文中指租了一个公寓房
Park Apartments公园公寓，the Riverside Apartments河畔公寓，类似于汉语的什么什么苑、什么什么家园的住宅名称，所以首字母用大写的，Apartment后面加s。
Officer: OK. And the apartment number?
Louise: Fifteen.
Officer: Right.
Officer: Now, I need to take some details of the theft. So you said you had some things stolen out of your bag?
Louise: That’s right.
Officer: And were you actually carrying the bag when the theft took place?
take place，发生
Louise: Yes. I really can’t understand it. I had my backpack on. And I went into a supermarket to buy a few things and when I opened it up my wallet wasn’t there.
backpack，名词，背包
open it up 把它打开来，比open it打开它，更加动态感
Officer: And what did your wallet have in it?
对于这句话，我们认为应该是“What was in your wallet?”，根据以前老师教的，wallet这样的物品是不能用have这个动词的。这是要颠覆我们的认知了啊！你们怎么看?
Louise: Well, fortunately I don’t keep my credit cards in that wallet—I keep them with my passport in an inside compartment in my backpack. But there was quite a bit of cash there ... about ￡250 sterling, I should think. I withdrew￡300 from my account yesterday, but I did a bit of shopping, so I must have already spent about ￡50 of that.
fortunately，副词，幸运地
credit cards，信用卡
passport，名词，护照
compartment，名词，隔层，[kəmˈpɑːtmənt]
inside compartment，里面的隔层a bit of 不可数名词：一点儿quite a bit of 不可数名词：相当多的
sterling，名词，英镑，注意sterling不是货币单位，而是货币品名。
I should think，我想、我认为、我觉得
withdraw，动词，（从银行）取（款），一起念一下：withdraw、withdrew、withdrawn，是特殊变形，需要加强记忆。
account，名词，银行账户
must have done sth. 表示对过去发生的动作接近事实的肯定推测，本文中可以翻译为“我一定是花掉了50英镑左右”
Officer: OK.
Louise: At first I thought, oh I must have left the wallet back in the apartment, but then I realised my phone had gone as well. It was only a week old, and that’s when I realised I’d been robbed. Anyway at least they didn’t take the keys to my rental car.
leave sth back，留下某物
realise，动词，意识到。有人问realise和realize有什么区别，realise是英式英语，realize是美式英语，意思是一样的哈。
rob，动词，盗取，抢劫。在文中显然我们应该翻译为“盗取”。
at least，至少key to the car ，车钥匙，该钥匙是车的一部分，用to来表示配套，而不用of，这个知识点经常考。
rental car，租赁的汽车
Officer: Yes. So you say the theft occurred yesterday?
occur，动词，发生，与take place同义词
Louise: Yes.
Officer: So that was September the tenth. And do you have any idea at all of where or when the things might possibly have been stolen?
do you have any idea at all of sth. 你可能一下子被have any idea at迷惑，首先idea 后面是用of的，不是at。at是跟后面的all一起的词组，这里的at all 在疑问句里是加强疑问语气用的。
possibly，副词，可能
Louise: Well at first I couldn’t believe it because the bag had been on my back ever since I left the apartment after lunch. It’s just a small backpack, but I generally use it when I’m travelling because it seems safer than a handbag. Anyway, I met up with a friend, and we spent a couple of hours in the museum. But I do remember that as we were leaving there, at about 4 o’clock, a group of young boys ran up to us, and they were really crowding round us, and they were asking us what time it was, then all of a sudden they ran off.
ever since，自从
meet up with sb. 与sb.见面
a couple of 可数名称复数，表示几（个）
museum，名词，博物馆
I do remember ，这里do表示强调
as we were leaving there, 这里注意leave是短暂性动词，短暂性动词的进行时表示将来，所以这里翻译为“当我们正要离开（博物馆）时”。
ran up to，跑向、奔向；ran off，跑开、跑掉
crowd，动词，拥挤、簇拥
all of a sudden，突然地
Officer: Can you remember anything about them?
Louise: The one who did most of the talking was wearing a T-shirt with a picture of something...let’s see....a tiger.
let’s see，与let me see一样的意思，表示正在思考或回忆。
Officer: Right. Any idea of how old he might have been?
Louise: Around twelve years old?
Officer: And can you remember anything else about his appearance？
appearance，名词，外貌、外表
Louise: Not much. He was quite thin...
thin，形容词，瘦的，与题干中的slim（纤细、苗条）是近义词。
Officer: Colour of hair?
Louise: I do remember that—he was blond. All the others were dark-haired.
blond，形容词，（头发）金色的
Officer: And any details of the others?
Louise: Not really. They came and went so quickly.
Not really. 表示否定。
Officer: Right. So what I’m going to do now is give you a crime reference number so you can contact your insurance company. So this is ten digits: 87954 82361.
what I’m going to do now is give，这里我们都认为give前要加个to才对。经查询，只在知乎上找到了这样的解答，“如果尚未发生，建议用to；如果马上就要发生/即将发生/就是现在，可以省略 to”，你们怎么看？欢迎后台留言交流哦！
reference number，编码
crime reference number，报案编码
contact，动词，联系
insurance company，保险公司
digit，名词，数字，[ˈdɪdʒɪt]；复数digits，注意它的发音，[ˈdɪdʒɪts]，ts的发音是“次”，没有“特”的音了。
Louise: Thank you. So should I ...
