赖世雄初级美语Lesson 123 An Accident

 

    Sally and her husband, Jack, have both
been driving for three years. Jack has
always driven very carefully. He has never
been in an accident. Sally, however, has
never been a good driver. She has already
gotten into four accidents this year. Each
time she has had an accident, she has
claimed that it was not her fault. Yesterday,
Sally drove into a tree. She blamed it on the
tree, saying that she honked the horn, but
the tree didn't get out of the way.
一桩事故
    萨莉和她丈夫杰克两人开车已有三年了。杰克开车总是很小
心，他从未发生过事故。然而，萨莉就一直不是个好驾驶员。她
今年已经出过四次车祸了。每次她发生事故，她总是宣称那不是
她的错。昨天萨莉撞到一棵树，她把她的错归罪于那棵树，她说
她按了喇叭，但那棵树就是不让路。
