Throughout above and following dialogue, a portable radio carried by one of the children carries the following announcement:
在上述和以下對(duì)白進(jìn)行的過程中，一個(gè)小孩拿著的手提式收音機(jī)一直在廣播下述通告：
This is Conelrad. This is Conelrad. We are still in a state of Yellow Alert. If you are a public official or government employee with an emergency assignment, or a civil defense worker, you should report to your post immediately. If you are a public official or government employee…
這是康納雷民防廣播電臺(tái)，這是康納雷民防廣播電臺(tái)。空襲警報(bào)仍未解除。公職人員、擔(dān)負(fù)緊急備戰(zhàn)任務(wù)的政府雇員以及民防系統(tǒng)的人員，請(qǐng)立即向你所在的單位報(bào)到。公職人員、擔(dān)負(fù)緊急戰(zhàn)備任務(wù)的政府雇員……
Jerry, ask again.
杰雷，再去求求吧。
Don't waste you time. He won't let anyone in. He said he didn't have any room or supplies there and it's designed for three people.
你就別白費(fèi)口舌了。他任何人都不讓進(jìn)去。他說他騰不出地方，生活用品也不夠，他家的防空洞只能呆3個(gè)人。
What'll we do?
那咱們?cè)趺崔k啊？
Maybe we ought to pick out just one basement and go to work on it. Poll all our stuff. Food, water, everything.
也許咱們?cè)撎暨x一個(gè)地下室去收拾收拾，作好準(zhǔn)備。咱們把東西統(tǒng)統(tǒng)湊在一起，食品啦，水啦，一切應(yīng)用物件統(tǒng)統(tǒng)湊攏來。
It isn't fair.He's down there in a bomb shelter completely safe. And our kids have to just wait around for a bomb to drop and —
這不公平。他躲在防空洞里安安全全一點(diǎn)事也沒有，可咱們的孩子只好等著挨炸……
Let's just go down into his basement and break down the door?
咱們到他的地下室去，把防空洞的門撞開來。大伙說好嗎？
A chorus of voices greet this with assent.
眾人齊聲贊同。
As HENDERSON rushes through toward the basement entrance, HARLOWE overtakes him saying:
亨德森向地下室入口處奔去，哈洛追上了他，說道：
Wait a minute, wait a minute. All of us couldn't fit in there. That would be crazy to even try.
你等等，你等等。那兒怎么擠得進(jìn)這么多人。這樣做簡(jiǎn)直太愚蠢。
Why don't we draw lots? Pick out one family?
咱們何不抽簽？誰家中簽誰家進(jìn)去？
What difference would it make? He won't let us in.
何必多此一舉呢？他不會(huì)讓咱們進(jìn)去的。
We can all march down there and tell him he's got the whole street against him. We could do that.
咱們可以一起下去跟他說，他把這條街上的人都得罪了。咱們可以去這樣跟他說。
What good would that do? I keep telling you. Even if we were to break down the door, it couldn't accommodate all of us. We'd just be killing everybody and for no reason.
那又有什么用？我三番五次對(duì)你們說過，即使咱們把門砸開，那個(gè)防空洞也容納不下咱們這些人。咱們肯定會(huì)統(tǒng)統(tǒng)擠死，而且一點(diǎn)名堂也沒有。
If it saves even one of these kids out here — I call that a reason.
這兒的這些孩子，哪怕只有一個(gè)因此而得救了—依我說，這就是堂堂正正的理由。
