Christmas Chronicles I

I hate working on Christmas Eve! Whoa! Get a load of this guy! Come in central, I think we’ve got ourselves a situation here.

平安夜还得上班，真烦！哇，快看这家伙！呼叫总部，我们这儿可能出状况了。

License and registration please. Have you been drinking tonight, sir?

请出示驾照和行驶证。先生，您今晚喝酒了吗？

I had one or two glasses of eggnog, but nothing else.

我就喝了一两杯蛋奶酒，别的没了。

Step out of the vehicle, please. Sir, what do you have in the back?

请下车。先生，您车后面装的是什么？

Just a few Christmas gifts, ’tis the season, after all!

就是些圣诞礼物，毕竟过节嘛！

Don’t take that tone with me. Do you have an invoice for these items?

别跟我用这种口气说话。这些东西有发票吗？

Um...no...I make these in my workshop in the North Pole!

呃……没有……这些是我在北极的作坊里做的！

You are under arrest, sir. You have the right to remain silent. You better not pout, you better not cry. [1] Anything you say can and will be used against you. You have the right to an attorney; if you cannot afford one, the state will appoint one for you. Do you understand these rights that have just been read to you? [2]

先生，您被捕了。您有权保持沉默。您最好别撅嘴，也别哭。您说的每一句话都可能成为呈堂证供。您有权请律师；如果请不起，法院会为您指派一位。您明白刚刚向您宣读的这些权利了吗？

You can’t take me to jail! What about my sleigh? It’s Christmas Eve! I have Presents to deliver! Rudolph! Prancer! Dancer! Get help!

你不能抓我！我的雪橇怎么办？今晚可是平安夜！我还有礼物要送呢！鲁道夫！猛冲！舞者！快去找帮手！
