Dialogue 1
|
Iris and Jim are foreign students. They are talking
about going to see a movie. |
| 艾莉絲和吉姆是外國學生。他們正在討論要去看電影的事。 |
| Iris: |
|
Let's see the new
legal thriller that started playing. |
艾莉絲： |
我們去看新上映的那部法庭懸疑片吧。 |
| Jim: |
|
Isn't that a movie
about lawyers and juries? I don't know enough about
the American legal system. |
吉姆： |
那部片是在講律師和陪審團，不是嗎？我對美國的法律制度不夠清楚。 |
| Iris: |
|
Don't worry. I'll
help you. Let's start with the basics. In an American
criminal court case, you have the judge and the
jury. |
艾莉絲： |
別擔心，我來幫你。我們先從基本的開始。美國的刑事訴訟案裡會有法官和陪審團。 |
| Jim: |
|
Stop there. What
is a jury? |
吉姆： |
等等，陪審團是什麼？ |
| Iris: |
|
A jury is a group
of twelve people that are chosen to listen to the
information in a court case and make a decision. |
艾莉絲： |
陪審團是一個由十二個人組成的群體，他們被選來聽取案件資訊，然後做決定。 |
| Jim: |
|
Who are the jury
members? Is being a jury member a job? |
吉姆： |
陪審團裡的成員是什麼樣的人？陪審人是一種職業嗎？ |
| Iris: |
|
No,
jury members, or jurors, are people like you and
me. You are required to do jury duty if you are
an American. You can only get out of doing jury
duty if you have a good excuse. |
艾莉絲： |
不是，陪審團的成員又叫陪審員，他們是像你我一樣的普通人。如果你是美國公民，就有當陪審員的義務。你必須盡陪審員的義務，除非你有正當理由才能拒絕。 |
| Jim: |
|
Um, I don't feel
well and I don't want to watch the movie. |
吉姆： |
呃，我覺得不舒服，我不想去看那部片。 |
| Iris: |
|
That's not a good
enough excuse! We're still going to see the movie! |
艾莉絲： |
這個理由不夠充分！我們還是要去看那部片！ |
|
|
|
Dialogue 2
|
Iris and Jim continue talking about the movie. |
| 艾莉絲和吉姆繼續談論那部電影。 |
| Jim: |
|
So, what are the
two different groups called? |
吉姆︰ |
那兩個不同的團體叫做什麼啊？ |
| Iris: |
|
First, one group
is the prosecution. They are the ones who have accused
someone or some organization of doing something
wrong. |
艾莉絲： |
首先，一邊叫做原告。他們對某個犯了錯的人或團體提出指控。 |
| Jim: |
|
And the
other group? |
吉姆： |
那另一邊呢？ |
| Iris: |
|
Well, the other group
is the defense. The defendant is the one accused
of doing something wrong. |
艾莉絲︰ |
另一邊叫做被告。被告人就是被指控做錯事的人。 |
| Jim: |
|
I think I'm catching
on now. What about the judge? |
吉姆： |
我想我漸漸了解了。那法官呢？ |
| Iris: |
|
The judge is the
boss in the courtroom. He or she makes important
decisions about the court case. |
艾莉絲︰ |
法官就是法庭上的老大。他可以對訴訟案做出重要的決定。 |
| Jim: |
|
Oh, and what is that
cool hammer that the judges get to hit on their
desks when they want everyone to be quiet? |
吉姆： |
喔，還有，法官們用那種很神氣的槌子敲打桌子來叫大家安靜，那叫什麼啊？ |
| Iris: |
|
That is called a
gavel. |
艾莉絲︰ |
那叫做議事鎚。 |
| Jim: |
|
Gavels are so cool.
I want to get one so that I too can have the power
to make everyone be quiet! |
吉姆： |
議事鎚好酷喔！我真想有一支議事鎚，這樣我也可以有權力叫大家閉嘴！ |
