1. 1美國緝毒局

    The DEA is a United States government agency whose job is to go after illegal drugs. The letters stand for Drug Enforcement Administration. It is not the regular city police, and it is not the FBI, who handle many kinds of federal crime. The DEA’s focus is drugs: finding traffickers, stopping drugs coming across borders, and enforcing US drug law. You will hear it in American news and films. People say the three letters one by one, D-E-A. It is an American body; Taiwan has its own police and health agencies for drug crime, so “the DEA” does not mean “the police here.” The name sounds formal because it is an official title, but the letters themselves are very common in US headlines.

組成The letters stand for Drug Enforcement Administration, the name of a US government agency.
