英語播客初級(jí)版 第215期(外教講解):汽車故障
A: Car trouble center. How may I help you?
B: My car won’t start! Stupid old car!
A: Hold on, before you kick your car let’s go through some possible problems.
B: Fine.
A: OK, first of all, can you turn the key in the ignition?
B: Yeah! I am here with my friend and he thinks it may be the spark plug or the starter motor.
A: Those are possible problems, but tell me, when you turn the key, do you hear the starter motor crank?
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?
A: No. If you step on the accelerator pedal you can flood the carburetor and your car will never start.
B: So what do you think it is?
A: I know this may seem like a silly question, but does your car have gasoline?
B: Umm. yeah! Right! I got the car started! Thanks for your help! I told you to fill the tank!

A: 汽車修理中心，你需要什么幫助?
B: 我的車啟動(dòng)不了。真是破車。
A: 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: 好吧。
A: 首先，你轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)鑰匙來點(diǎn)了嗎?
B: 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: 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: 是的，聲音挺起啦和平時(shí)發(fā)東車子時(shí)是一樣的，但是車并沒有發(fā)哦那個(gè)。引擎并沒有發(fā)哦那個(gè)，我應(yīng)該踩油門嗎?
A: 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: 你認(rèn)為是什么問題?
A: 我知道這聽起來很愚蠢，暗示你的車還有油嗎?
B: 是的，車發(fā)動(dòng)起來了。謝謝你的幫助。我曾讓你加油的。
