Safety Consciousness

By Luo Qianyi

Every time my friend Hai Feng goes to the ATM to draw some money, he takes extreme care to cover the screen.

I laughed at him and said,“You’re really quite cautious, eh?”

To my surprise, Hai Feng shook his head, “Nah, I’m afraid someone will see my balance and make fun of me.”

My friend Zhilin is very concerned with safety.Even when he goes out on his bicycle he’ll wear a helmet.

It was boiling outside the other day, and I saw Zhilin still persistently wearing his helmet.I couldn’t help but exclaiming,“Your sense of safety is really quite something else!”

Unexpectedly, he sighed, “I just don’t want my Benz-drivingclassmates to know it’s me riding this bike.”

安全意識

一

朋友海峰每次在ATM機上取款時，都會非常注意遮擋。

我笑著說：“你倒是挺有安全意識的?！?/p>

不料，海峰搖搖頭說：“不，我是怕被人看到余額，讓人笑話。”

二

朋友致麟是個非常有安全意識的人，連出門騎自行車都會戴頭盔。

那天，天氣很熱，我看到致麟仍然堅持戴頭盔騎自行車出門，不由得感嘆：“你的安全意識真是太強了！”

不料，他嘆氣道：“我怕被開奔馳、寶馬的同學認出來?！?/p>
