   No Smoking请勿吸烟

  For the past week Elizabeth would come home from work and discover that her apartment smelled like cigarette smoke. She did not know where the smell was coming from. Elizabeth didn't smoke. No one else had the key to her apartment to smoke inside while she was at work. The smell of smoke especially bothered her because she had asthma.

  在过去的一周里,伊丽莎白下班回家后,发现她的公寓里散发着一股烟味,她不知道那气味来自哪里。伊丽莎白从不吸烟。她外出工作时,没有人有她公寓的钥匙而到她家吸烟。这股特殊的烟味使她不舒服,因为她有哮喘病。

  One day Elizabeth stayed home from work because she was expecting a package. When she woke up that morning, the apartment smelled fine. At one in the afternoon, Elizabeth went into the kitchen to make a sandwich for lunch. That was when she noticed the smell of cigarette smoke. She called the building's superintendent. By the time he arrived at Elizabeth's apartment, the whole place smelled like cigarette smoke. The super told Elizabeth he was pretty sure the smoke was coming up though the vents from her new downstairs neighbor. The new neighbor was a smoker. The super told Elizabeth there was nothing to be done. The building was really old and the vents couldn't be sealed. It was also perfectly legal for the downstairs neighbor to smoke in his apartment. He suggested that Elizabeth buy an air filter and see if that would help.

  一天,伊丽莎白留在家里办公,因为她在等一个快递。当她那天早上醒来的时候,公寓里的烟味不见了。下午,伊丽莎白走进厨房做了一个三明治当午餐。那个时候,她又闻到了香烟的味道。她打电话给了公寓的管理员,当他到达伊丽莎白的公寓时,整个地方闻起来像是香烟的味道。管理员对伊丽莎白说,他非常肯定这烟是从她的新邻居德尔家中出来的,新邻居是个烟民。他告诉伊丽莎白也没办法了。这个建筑真的很旧,而且通风孔不能密封。楼下的邻居在他的公寓里吸烟,这也是完全合法的。他建议伊丽莎白买一个空气过滤器,看看是否有帮助。

  Elizabeth bought an air filter but didn't find it to be enough. Her asthma was getting worse. Her clothes and furniture were beginning to smell like cigarette smoke, too. Elizabeth decided to go downstairs to talk to the neighbor. She was going to ask him not to smoke in his apartment. Elizabeth knocked on the door. When he opened the door, a huge wave of cigarette smoke came out. Elizabeth began coughing violently. The neighbor gave Elizabeth a disgusted look. "Are you trying to get me sick?" the neighbor asked her. Elizabeth couldn't believe what he was saying. "No, but you are," she said.

  伊丽莎白买了一个空气过滤器,但没什么用。她的哮喘变得越来越严重了,她的衣服和家具也开始散发着烟味。伊丽莎白决定下楼去跟邻居谈话,她要请他在他的公寓里不要抽烟。伊丽莎白敲了敲门,当他打开门时,一股巨大的香烟烟雾冒出了出来。伊丽莎白开始剧烈地咳嗽,邻居给了伊丽莎白一个白眼。”你是在恶心我吗?”邻居问她。伊丽莎白不敢相信他在说什么。“不,但你是。”她说。
