Full transcript
Good morning, I'm Constable Lee from the local police station. Can you describe exactly what happened yesterday and when you first discovered the break-in?
昨天早上我七点出门上班，晚上大约六点回家，才发现前门被撬开了，屋里东西也被翻乱了。
Did you notice anything missing from your home, and did anyone, such as a neighbour, witness who broke in?
笔记本电脑、一些首饰还有一台相机都不见了，我也不清楚具体丢了多少东西，附近好像没有人看到是谁闯进来的。
Do you have any security camera or doorbell footage at home, and did any neighbours notice something unusual around that time?
我家门口装了一个门铃摄像头，应该拍到了一些画面，我可以把录像拷贝给你参考。
I'll issue you an event number linked to NSW Police Force; keep it safe, as you'll need it for any insurance claim or follow-up enquiries.
好的，那如果你们还在继续调查，我要怎么知道案子的进展呢？
If you want an update in the future, call your local station and quote that event number—Service NSW doesn't handle criminal investigation enquiries like this.
明白了，那如果我要向保险公司理赔，除了报案证明，还需要准备什么其他资料吗？
Please keep a copy of this police report, and prepare a list of all stolen items with their estimated value for your insurer promptly.
好的，谢谢你，我会把报案证明和物品清单都准备好，尽快交给保险公司处理。
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- event number说“报案编号”或“案件编号”，视上下文可加“事件编号”。
- police report译为“警方报案记录”或“报警记录”，根据上下文选择更贴切的说法。
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
