Passage Two
段落二
A super attendant of the city municipal building, Dillia Adorno, was responsible for presenting its new security plan to the public.
市政大樓的隨員迪利亞·阿多諾向公眾提出新的安全計劃。
City employees, citizens and reporters gathered in the hall to hear her describe the plan. After outlining the main points she would cover, she assured the audience that she would be happy to answer questions at the end of her presentation.
城市的員工、公民、記者聚集到大堂聽她對計劃的描述。在她說完主要的幾點后，她保證發(fā)布會過后會很樂意回答聽眾的疑問。
Dillia realized the plan was expensive and potentially controversial. So she was not surprised to see a number of hands go up as soon as she finished speaking.
迪利亞意識到這個計劃既費錢又具有潛在的爭議性。所以當她在演講后看到許多雙提問的雙手時，她并不感到驚訝。
An employ asked, "Would the new system create long lines to get into the building like the line in the airport security checks?"
一個員工問："新系統(tǒng)會像機場安檢一樣要排很長的隊才能進到大廈里嗎？"
Dillia had anticipated this question and had an answer ready. After repeating the question, she explained that the sufficient number of security guards would be working at peak hours to speed things along.
迪利亞早猜到會有這種問題，所以她早備好了答案。在重復了一遍問題后，她解釋將會有足夠多的保安在高峰期執(zhí)勤，加快辦事效率。
The next question was more confrontational. "Where was the money come from to pay for all of this?" The journalists who ask the question seem hostile. But Dillia was careful not to adopt the defensive tone.
下一個問題更有抵抗性。"這些錢從哪里來？"記者提出的問題似乎懷有敵意。但是迪利亞盡量不采取防御態(tài)度。
She stated that the money would come from the city's general budget. "I know these are tide times", she added, "But everyone agrees on the importance of safe guarding our employees and members of the public who come into the building."
她稱錢來自城市的總預算。"我知道這是趨勢，"她補充說，"但是每個人都認同安全保衛(wèi)我們的員工和進入大廈的大眾是一件重要的事。"
Near the end of the 25 minutes she has said, Dillia said she would take two more questions. When those were finished, she concluded the session with a brief restatement of how the new system will improve security and peace of mind in the municipal building.
發(fā)布會的最后25分鐘，迪利亞說她將再回答兩個問題。結束后，她簡要的重申了一遍新系統(tǒng)是如何提高市政大廈的安全與平靜的。
