烟雾报警器smoke detector[英][sməuk dɪˈtektə] [美][smok dɪˈtɛktɚ] 中英文小故事:烟雾报警器和晚饭 我的烧饭手艺向来是家庭的笑柄。一天晚上,晚餐我准备得有点儿太快了,厨房里充满了烟,结果烟雾报警器报起警来。尽管我的两个孩子都在学校里接受过防火安全训练,可是他们并没有对报警声作出反应。我感到很恼火,满幢房子乱冲寻找他们。 我在洗澡间找到他们,发现他们正在洗手。我的声音盖过了烟雾警报的嗡嗡 声,我叫他们辨别那声音。 “是烟雾报警器,”他们异口同声地说。 “你们知道那声音意味着什么吗?”我责问道。 “当然,”我的大孩子回答道,“晚饭准备好了。” The Target My cooking has always been the target of family jokes. One evening, as I prepared dinner a bit too quickly,the kitchen filled with smoke and the smoke detector went off. Although both of my children had received fire-safety training at school,they did not re¬spond to the alarm. Annoyed,I stormed through the house in search of them. I found them in the bathroom, washing their hands. Over the loud buzzing of the smoke alarm, I asked them to identify the sound. “It is the smoke detector,”they replied in unison. “Do you know what that sound means?” I demanded. “Sure,” my eldest child replied. “Dinner is ready.” 中英文例句 1.
