The police officer

---

亜沙美と博史が自分達の仕事について話している。

Asami and Hiroshi talk about their jobs.

---

亜沙美：お仕事は何をしてるの？

Asami: What is your occupation?

---

博史：警察官だよ。

Hiroshi: I'm a police officer.

---

亜沙美：本当？ それは面白そうね！

Asami: Really? That must be exciting!

---

博史：まあ、いつもそうではないよ。書類仕事も多いし。

Hiroshi: Well, not always. There is a lot of paperwork to do.

---

亜沙美：警察官になってどのくらい？

Asami: How long have you been a police officer?

---

博史：20年以上になるよ。

Hiroshi: More than 20 years.

---

亜沙美：それは長いわね。仕事で自分は変わったと感じることはある？

Asami: That's a long time. Do you feel that your job has changed you personally?

---

博史：うん。今はもうお酒はほどほどにしてるよ。どれだけたくさんの人の人生がアルコールでだめになったかを見てきたからね。

Hiroshi: Yes. I only drink alcohol in moderation now, because I've seen how many people's lives have been destroyed because of it.

---

亜沙美：そんなにひどいの？

Asami: So bad?

---

博史：うん、残念ながらね。アルコールがなければ、警察部隊もおそらく半分に削減できるだろうね。

Hiroshi: Yes, unfortunately. You probably could cut the police force by half if it weren't for alcohol.

---

亜沙美：それじゃ、私はノンアルコール・ビールにするわ！

Asami: I guess I get the non-alcoholic beer then!

---

博史：賢明な決断だね！

Hiroshi: Good decision!
