生活英語(yǔ)情景口語(yǔ)100主題 37. Driving Cars 駕車
S: Wow, is that your sports car?
O: Yes, do you like it?
S: I love it! I used to always want to drive a green jaguar. Is it in good condition?
O: It looks good on the outside, but the inside is a different story. It needs a lot of servicing before it can go out on the roads again.
S: What's wrong with it?
O: Well, first of all, it needs a new engine, which is extremely expensive.
S: When's the last time you had it serviced?
O: It must have been a few years ago now.
S: I thought all cars needed regular servicing on a yearly basis.
O: They do. Once my son was born,there was no reason to drive this car anymore. It's only a two-seater, you know!
S: Whar else is wrong with it?
O: The heating controls don't work anymore, so it always feels like it's about 100 degrees in the car-even in the summer!
S: Anything else?
O: The brakes don't really work that well anymore either.
S: Why don't you get it all fixed?
O: It costs more than you think to run a car_especially when there are so many things wrong with it?
S: Well, let me know when you get it fixed, I'd love to go for a ride in it!
Dialogue 2
O: Are you ready for your first driving lesson?
S: Yes. Which one is the brake again?
O: The pedal on your left is the brake and the one on your right is the gas.
S: I'm glad this car is an automatic. I don't like having to change gears.
O: Automatics are very simple to drive. The first thing you should do is put your seat belt on.
S: You should also put yours on. You never know what will happen with me in the driver's seat!
O: Very funny. Next you should check your side mirrors and your rear view mirror. Can you see out of them?
S: I can't see anything out of the side mirror on your side of the car. Could you move it forward a bit, please?
O: How's that?
S: That's better. Now that?
O: Check your petrol situation.
S: The tank is almost empty. I guess I'll drive to the petrol station to fill it up.
O: That's a good idea. Put your keys in the ignition, start it up, put the car in reverse, wait for the road to be clear, and then back out of the driveway.
S: I got it. Don't worry. I'll get you there in one piece.
O: Remember, no honking this time. The horn is only for emergencies!
S: Why does that cop car behind me have its red lights on?
