英文原文:
LL: So how long do you plan to live here?
Beth: We'd like to sign a year-long contract, if that's OK.
LL: Fine by me. Do you know how to read this kind of contract?
Beth: Yes. We've signed them before. We even brought our chops.
LL: Great. When in Rome, you guys know what to do.
Beth: We'll sign our signatures, too. And give you our passport numbers along with our ARC numbers.
LL: [After everyone has signed] That about does it. See you in a week.
參考譯文:
房東：所以你們準備在這住多久？
貝絲：如果可以的話，我們想簽一年的約。
房東：我沒問題。你們看得懂這種合約嗎？
貝絲：看得懂。我們以前簽過。我們甚至連印章都帶來了。
房東：太好了。入境隨俗，你們都懂該怎么做嘛。
貝絲：我們還要簽名。然后把我們的護照號碼跟外僑居留證號碼一起給你。
房東：（大家都簽名后）大概就這樣啦。一星期之后見啰

chop (n.)
印章
You'll need to get a chop made if you want to do business in China.
如果你要跟中國做生意的話，你需要先刻一個印章。
When in Rome
入境隨俗。因為歐美人士沒有刻印章的習慣，所以房東引用這句諺語，稱贊貝絲跟吉爾已經(jīng)是道地臺灣人了。由于整句說出來太麻煩，一般口語只會說When in Rome.
I've started eating chicken feet and lotus root. As they say, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.
我已經(jīng)開始吃雞腳跟蓮花根了。俗語說入境隨俗嘛。

都辦妥了嗎？

我聽說你有門路買到比較貧窮國家的護照，像是貝里斯跟東加。
That about does it.
大概就是這樣了。用在事情已完成一個段落，表示「差不多完成了?！?BR> That about does it for the fish, it's ready to eat.
魚差不多好了，可以吃了。
