(文.蔡曜蓮) Q:How did you get involved in the drug business? A:Well, I was raised in a ranch named La Tuna, there are no job opportunities. The only way to have money to survive is to grow poppy, marijuana, and I began to cultivate it and to sell it. Q:Are you prone to violence, or do you use it as a last resort? A:Look, all I do is defend myself, nothing more. But do I start trouble? Never. Q:What is the outlook for the business? Do you think it will disappear? Will it grow instead? A:No, it will not end because as time goes by, we are more people, and this will never end. 問:你怎麼進入販毒這門生意的? 答:這個嘛…,我在一個叫La Tuna的農莊長大,那裡沒有任何工作機會。唯一謀生賺錢的辦法就是種罌粟花、大麻,於是我開始種植、販售。 問:你傾向使用暴力嗎?或是訴諸暴力為最後手段? 答:聽好,我所做的事只是保護我自己,沒有其他。我有沒有無端惹是生非過?從來沒有。 問:(販毒)生意前景如何?你覺得它有一天會消失嗎?還是它會越來越興旺? 答:不,它不會消失,因為隨著時間過去,我們有越來越多人,這永不會消失。 看懂關鍵字 cultivate /ˋkltvet/ (v.) 耕種例句:There's a new trend among city folks to cultivate vegetables at home. 最近都市人掀起一股在家種菜的風潮。 prone / pron/ (a.) 有…傾向的例句:He’s prone to speaking sarcastically whenever he feels nervous. 他一緊張就容易出言諷刺。 resort / rɪˋzɔrt/ (n.) 訴諸、採用例句:She grained the power legally, without resort to violence. 她沒有採取暴力手段,而是通過合法途徑得到權力。 |
