A:Car trouble center. How may I help you?汽車修理中心,你需要什么幫助?
B:My car won’t start! Stupid old car!我的車啟動(dòng)不了。真是破車。
A:Hold on, before you kick your car let’s go through some possible problems.堅(jiān)持下,在你踢車之前我們先仔細(xì)檢查下一些可能存在的問題。
B:Fine.好吧。
A:OK, first of all, can you turn the key in the ignition?首先,你轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)鑰匙來點(diǎn)了嗎?
B:Yeah! I am here with my friend and he thinks it may be the spark plug or the starter motor.是的,我和朋友在一起,他認(rèn)為可能是火花塞或起動(dòng)電動(dòng)機(jī)的問題。
A:Those are possible problems, but tell me, when you turn the key, do you hear the starter motor crank?這些都可能存在問題。但是你先告訴我,當(dāng)你轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)鑰匙時(shí),你聽到發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)了嗎?
B:Yeah, it sounds like it usually does when I start the car, but nothing else happens. The engine won’t start. Should I maybe press the accelerator?是的,聲音挺起啦和平時(shí)發(fā)動(dòng)車子時(shí)是一樣的,但是車并沒有發(fā)生什么。引擎并沒有發(fā)哦那個(gè),我應(yīng)該踩油門嗎?
A:No. If you step on the accelerator pedal you can flood the carburetor and your car will never start.不要。如果你踩油門,汽化器會(huì)出問題,車子就啟動(dòng)不了。
B:So what do you think it is?你認(rèn)為是什么問題?
