Vanessa:Stop thief!

Police Officer:What happened?

Vanessa:I just got mugged.

That guy stole my purse, jewelry, camera-all of my valuables!

Police Officer:Were you wearing flashy jewelry and carrying an expensive camera?

Those are big enticements for muggers.

Vanessa:I didn't have anything on that was flashy and I was minding my own business.

地道美语听力练习:遭遇抢劫

Police Officer:Well, you should never go out alone at night, and if you have to, stay in well-lighted areas.

Traveling on dim streets makes you a target for thieves.

Vanessa:Thanks for that insight.

Police Officer:Can you describe the person who mugged you?

Vanessa:No, it happened in a flash.

I didn't get a good look at his face, but I'm sure it was a man.

Police Officer:It's a good thing you weren't hurt.

You should probably learn self-defense in case it happens again.

Vanessa:Thanks a lot. I think I've had as much advice as I can take in one night.

Are you going to do anything to find that mugger?

Police Officer:Sure, I'll file a report, but don't get your hopes up.

Vanessa:Believe me, I won't.
