Terry: But there haven’t been any attacks, right?
Lisa: No, not yet at least. But some things have changed. Our airports are certainly a little more careful.
Terry: That’s good. The whole world has changed a lot in the last few years.
Lisa: That’s for sure. I almost went to Spain in March for a holiday, but then there were train bombings!
Terry: What a tragedy that was. I sure hope there’s an end in sight to this horrible problem.
(续上期)

泰瑞:但到目前为止还没发生任何攻击吧?
莉莎:没有,至少还没有。但有些情况已经改变了。我们的机场的确比较小心了。
泰瑞:那很好。过去几年来全球都发生许多变化。
莉莎:的确。我三月差点去西班牙参加一个节日,结果那边就发生火车爆炸!
泰瑞:那真是一场悲剧。真希望不久之后这个骇人的问题能够结束。
