双语故事:最好请个保镖(Better hire a bodyguard)
【英文原文】
Better hire a bodyguard——最好请个保镖
Guns always gave me the willies. But when my new job required me to transport valuables, I decided I needed one for protection. Since I knew next to nothing about firearms, I joined a pistol club, hoping to pick up some much-needed pointers. After watching and evaluating my technique for a few weeks, the instructor pulled me aside.
"Are you open to a suggestion?" he asked.
"Absolutely," I replied.
"Hire a bodyguard," he said.
【中文译文】
枪总是让我胆战心惊。但当我的工作需要我去运送贵重物品时，我觉得我真的需要一把枪来防身。 因为我对武器几乎一无所知，我参加了一家手枪俱乐部，希望学到一些必备的枪械知识。 经过数周对我的技巧的观察和评估后，教练把我拉到一边。“愿意接受些建议吗？” “没有任何问题，请讲”我回答。 “请个保镖吧”教练说。
