我为我的车子操心
M: Is this table on the corner okay?
W: Sure. We can sit here.
M: Gee. You’ve hardly got anything on your tray.
W: Yeah. I guess I’m just not that hungry.
M: What’s the matter? Aren’t you feeling well?
W: Well, I’ve been really worried. It’s my car. It’s in the shop again.
M: Really? What’s wrong this time?
W: I don’t know exactly. Something’s wrong with the brakes, I think.
M: Well, at least that shouldn’t cost you much to fix. Parts are cheaper for all the American cars like yours. Did the mechanic say how much it would cost?
W: He said he would call me with an estimate later on today.
M: Watch out he doesn’t try to take advantage of you.
W: What do you mean?
M: Well, some car mechanics, if they think that someone doesn’t know much about cars, they might try to overcharge that person.
W: Maybe so. But I trust this guy. He was recommended by one of my neighbors. He has done some work for me in the past and his prices seemed to be reasonable.
M: Oh, that’s good to know. Maybe I’ll try using him in the future. By the way, do you need a ride home after class today?
W: Oh, I’ll sure appreciate it. It’s really tough getting around without a car when you live off-campus.

参考译文
M:这个角落的桌子可以吗?
W:可以。我们就坐这吧。
M:哗,你的盘子里几乎没什么东西。
W:是的。我并不怎么饿。
M:你怎么了?是不是不舒服?
W:我一直很担心,是我的车,又送去修了。
M:真的吗?这次是什么毛病?
W:我也不太清楚。我想是刹车出了问题。
M:至少修理刹车花费不会太大。美国车的零件都很便宜,像你的那辆。修车工说要花多少钱了吗?
W:他说等他看一下,今天晚些时候告诉我。
M:当心他想利用你。
W:这是什么意思?
M:你知道有些汽车修理工,如果看你对汽车知之甚少,他们可能会要你很多钱。
W:也许有这种事。但是我相信这个人。是我的一个邻居介绍我去他那修的。他以前也给我修过,而且价格还算合理。
M:哦,这还不错。也许将来我也去找他。顺便问一下,你今天放学后要不要搭我的车?
W:哦,那真是太感激你了。住在校外如果没有车的话那可太麻烦了。
