Susan: Hey, Jack, you’re an attorney. Do you know anything about DUIs? 
苏珊：嘿，杰克，你是个律师。你知道酒后驾驶的情况吗？
Jack: Sure, I’ve handled a few DUI cases. 
杰克：当然，我刚刚处理了一些酒后驾驶的案子。
Susan: I was just wondering about the penalties for a DUI. 
苏珊：我想知道酒后驾驶会罚多少钱。
Jack: Well, if it’s a first offense, you’ll be fined and may be placed on probation. You’ll need to attend DUI school, and your license will berestricted, which means you can only drive to and from work and to and from DUI school. 
杰克：呃，如果你是初犯，会罚款然后观察。你需要去酒驾学习，执照会受限，也就是说你只能开车从工作到酒驾学习。
Susan: That sounds serious, but what if it’s not your first offense? 
苏珊：听起来很严重，但若不是初犯呢？
Jack: Then the penalties get even more serious. With your second offense, you’ll probably do mandatory jail time, anywhere from 96 hours to a year, depending on the circumstances. Your driver’s license will be suspended, and you’ll be placed on probation for several years. 
杰克：那罚款就会更多了，第二次犯的话，就会被强制拘留，拘留时间大概是96个小时到一年不等，拘留时间视情况而定。你的驾照会暂停使用，你会被观察几年。
Susan: Those are some severe penalties. But what if you already have two DUIs? 
苏珊：那是严厉的惩罚，但是倘若你已经有两次酒后驾驶。
Jack: Then you’ll get several months in jail, at least. Your license will be revoked and you may be required to go into an alcohol treatment program. Why are you asking me all of these questions? You’re not in trouble, are you? 
杰克：那至少得住好几个月的监狱，驾照会被吊销，你还会被要求去参加酒精治疗计划。 为什么问我这些问题？你没有陷入什么困难中吧？
Susan: No, I’m not. I just met a guy and I really like him, but I think he just got his third DUI. 
苏珊：不，我没有。我刚认识一个男孩，我很喜欢他。我想他刚好是第三次酒驾。
Jack: If that isn’t deterrent enough, you may think about what kind of relationship you can have with him – from behind bars! 
杰克：如果那还不够有震慑力，或许可以考虑一下你跟他的关系——从狱友开始！
