Rupi: I don’t think I’m cut out for this. How am I supposed to chaperone a class of students on a field trip?
魯比：我覺得我不適合這份工作。我該如何陪一群學生去校外旅行呢？
Antonia: I thought you were gung-ho about being a chaperon for Nadia and the rest of her class on their trip to the children’s museum. That’s why you volunteered.
安東尼婭：我以為你對陪伴納迪亞和她的同學們前往兒童博物館這件事很熱心呢。這也是你申請志愿者的原因。
Rupi: I was, but then I started reading this material the school sent me to prepare for the trip. I have so many duties.
魯比：我確實很熱心，但是后來我讀了學校發來的準備這次旅行的材料。我的責任太多了。
Antonia: Like what?
安東尼婭：比如說呢？
Rupi: I’m supposed to supervise the children all the time, escorting them to the restrooms and making sure they don’t misbehave. I don’t know what to do if the kids get out of hand.
魯比：我要全程照看孩子們，護送他們上廁所，確保他們不會出任何差錯。如果孩子們不聽話，那我該怎么辦。
Antonia: It’s not an overnight trip, just a morning at the museum.
安東尼婭：這又不是過夜旅行，只是在博物館度過一上午。
Rupi: I know, but I’m responsible for their safety. What if I have to give first aid?
魯比：我知道，但我得為他們的安全負責。如果需要急救，我該怎么做？
Antonia: The teacher will be there. He’ll know what to do in a real emergency.
安東尼婭：會有老師隨行的。他會處理緊急情況的。
Rupi: But how am I supposed to keep track of so many kids?
魯比：可是我怎么跟這么多孩子保持聯系？
Antonia: Not all of the students are going on the trip, just the ones with signed permission slips.
安東尼婭：不是所有學生都參加這次旅行，只有簽署同意書的學生才會去。
Rupi: Even so, it’s a big responsibility. There are so many things that can go wrong.
魯比：即便如此，這也是一項艱巨的任務。隨時都有可能出岔子。
Antonia: Do you want me to go in your place?
安東尼婭：你想要我代替你去嗎？
Rupi: Yes! No, I already told Nadia I’ll be going and she’s really excited. I don't want to disappoint her.
魯比：好呀！不行，我已經告訴納迪亞要陪她去了，她很興奮。我不想讓她失望。
Antonia: You’ll be absolutely fine. I’m sure it won’t be like last time.
安東尼婭：你絕對沒問題的。我相信你不會像上次那樣的。
Rupi: Last time?
魯比：上一次？
Antonia: Never mind. Forget I mentioned it.
安東尼婭：別介意。就當我沒說好了。
