Two days later, Amanda and Linger are making protest signs
Linger: Wow. I can't believe I'm helping Aduh make protest signs.
Amanda: Especially for a protest that he's leading.
Linger: I knew I'd think of some way to get him involved in political action.
Amanda: Yeah. But is he going to vote in the presidential election?
Linger: Oh, that's no problem. I told him I'd only help him make signs if he promised to vote.
Amanda: Wow. You know, seeing the way you care about politics has really inspired me to vote for the U.S. president in November.

玲儿: 哇,我不敢相信我在帮阿德做抗议标语。
亚曼达:尤其这个抗议还是由他领导的。
玲儿: 我就知道总会想出办法让他参与政治活动。
亚曼达:是啊。但他会在总统大选时投票吗?
玲儿: 噢,没问题的啦。我告诉他如果他答应去投票我才要帮他做标语。
亚曼达:哇,你知道吗,看到你如此关心政治,真的让我很想在十一月的美国总统选举时投下一票。

Linger brings Zinn to see Aduh and Amanda at a coffee shop
Aduh: Linger, did you hear? The school's tripling internet prices!
Linger: Wow. And that comes right after increasing tuition costs.
Aduh: I know, what should I do? If I get a job, I won't have time to study.
Linger: Let's worry about that later. First, I want you to meet someone.
Aduh: Can he solve this problem?
Linger: Maybe. This is Zinn. He has something to tell you about politics. Amanda, you should listen, too.
Aduh: OK. But make it quick. I have to go to the internet cafe.

阿德:玲儿,你听到消息了吗?学校要把网络费增至三倍!
玲儿:哇。学费调涨之后马上就调这个。
阿德:我知道,我该怎么办?如果去打工,我就没有时间念书了。
玲儿:我们等一下再来操心那个好了。我要你们先见见一个人。
阿德:他可以解决这个问题吗?
玲儿:也许吧。这位是辛。他要告诉你有关政治的事。亚曼达,你也该听听看。
阿德:好。但是要快。我还得去网咖。
