Savannah: wow, it that your sports car?

Owen: 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: what 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 can get it fixed. I’d love to go for a ride in it!

哇,這是你的跑車嗎?

是的,你覺得怎么樣?

我喜歡它!我以前一直想要一輛綠色的捷豹.這車的車況怎么樣?

從外面看起來很不錯,不過里面就大不一樣了.再上路的話可能需要好好保養(yǎng)一下.

有什么毛病?

嗯,首先,需要換一個新引擎,那個可能會很貴.

你上一次保養(yǎng)是什么時候?

大概是好幾年前了.

我覺得每輛車最好每年都做一些定期的基礎(chǔ)保養(yǎng).

沒錯.只要我兒子一出生就沒有理由再開這輛車了,要知道,畢竟它是兩人座的!

還有什么其它毛病嗎?

空調(diào)壞了,所以車里從感覺像是有100度,尤其是在夏天!

還有嗎?

剎車也不太靈了.

你為什么不大修一次?

養(yǎng)一輛車比你想象的要費錢得多,特別是有很多零件都不好用的時候.

你修好之后告訴我一聲,我非常喜歡坐車旅行的感覺.
