Chinese Conversation – lesson 645

女士:非常感谢您。每分每毫都有帮助。
强:我知道。这真是场前所未有的灾难。我知道有很多人想帮忙,但是不知从何帮起。
女士:世界各地的人都在捐献,许多政府也已加入。
强:我知道。我只是希望钱会用对地方。妳想台湾也会有海啸的危险吗?
女士:你或许已经知道,我们曾经发生大地震。不过,太平洋有海啸预警系统。
强:真可惜印度洋没有。

Lady: Thank you so much. Every little bit helps.
Jon: I know. This disaster is unprecedented. I know a lot of people who want to help but don’t know how.
Lady: People around the world have been donating, and many governments have gotten on board.
Jon: I know. I just hope the money is going to the right places. Do you think Taiwan could be at risk for killer waves, too?
Lady: We’ve had huge earthquakes, as you probably know. But, the Pacific has tsunami warning systems.
Jon: It’s too bad the Indian Ocean didn’t have one, too.
