新概念英语第二册L 16 A polite request 彬彬有礼的要求

A polite request

If you park your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it. You will be very lucky if he lets you go without a ticket. However, this does not always happen. Traffic police are sometimes very polite. During a holiday in Sweden,I found this note on my car:' Sir, we welcome you to our city. This is a "NoParking¹" area. You will enjoy your stay here if you pay attention to our street signs. This note is only a reminder².' If you receive a request⁴ like this, you can-not fail to obey it!

参考译文 

一旦你把汽车停错了地方，交通警察很快就会发现。如果他没给你罚单就放你走了，算你走运。然而，情况并不都是这样，交通警察有时也很客气。有一次在瑞典度假，我发现我的车上有这样一个字条：“先生，欢迎您光临我们的城市。此处是‘禁止停车’区。如果您对我们街上的标牌稍加注意，您在此会过得很愉快的。谨此提请注意。”如果你收到这样的恳求，你是不会不遵照执行的！
