第13课:不重要的 - 4
【迷你小对话】
A: Just saying you did not steal it is immaterial unless you can prove it.
B: I know I will look feeble if I cannot give a good excuse for why it’s gone.
A: You may have a lowly background, but we can find a way to prove you did not steal it.
B: Well, this is no minor thing you are doing to help me!
A: 光说你没偷东西是没用的,除非你能证明才行。
B: 我知道如果我不能很好地解释那东西为什么不见了,我说什么都是站不住脚的。
A: 你的背景不太好,但我们会想办法证明你没偷。
B: 哦,那你们真是帮了我的大忙了!
