小编导读：本周美剧词汇选自《CSI犯罪现场调查》第15季第14集。

示例音频：

Russell: Did you report that to the police?

Narvick: No, I did not. I knew what wretched things that man Reem had done, and I thought the families deserved to believe he'd been turned to ash, after all they'd been through.

Russell: I bet you also didn't want your-your business to suffer from the reports of your negligence.

Narvick: I volunteered my services free of charge.

罗素：你报警了吗?

纳尔维克：当然没有。我知道那个恶棍做过很多坏事，但他的家人经历这一切也很痛苦，他们理应相信他已入土为安。

罗素：你肯定也不想你的生意，因为你的粗心大意而受影响。

纳尔维克：我已经免费给他提供服务。
