  A:Welcome to Al’s Garage. What seems to be the problem?

B:No problem at all! I am taking a long road trip and I want to make sure my car is in good mechanical condition.

A:Very wise decision.  When was the last time you had a tune 1 up?

B:Not that long ago, I think it was four months ago.

A:We usually recommend that you bring your car in every five thousand kilometers.

B:Why? I mean, what exactly do you do to a car that you need to check it so often?

A:First of all, we change the motor oil and oil filter. If you don’t do this, it can cause your engine to wear faster and that means you would probably have to change the pistons 3 and intake 4 valves.

B: I see. What else?

A: We also check your spark plugs, fuel filter, and other oil levels such as hydraulic 5 fluid.  We also check the clutch and brakes to determine when you will need new ones.

B: Ok, well, when you put it that way, it doesn’t seem like a waste of time and money.

A: Trust me, regular tune ups will keep your car running smoothly 6 and avoid break downs.

  A: 欢迎来到Al’s汽车修理厂。有什么问题?

B: 没问题。我正在开车行驶很远的路程,我想确保车子状况良好。

A: 明智的决定。你上次是什么时候保养车子的?

B: 时间不长,我想是4个月前。

A: 我们通常建议您每行驶玩5千公里就来保养下车子。

B: 为什么?我是说,为什么要经常检查车子,你们是如何来保养车子的?

A: 首先,我们更换机油和滤油器 。如果你不换这个,这会导致你的发动机耗损过快,也就是说你必须得更换活塞和进气阀。

B: 我明白了。还有别的吗?

A: 我们还会检查火花塞,燃油滤清器和其他油的指数,比如液压油。我们还会检查离合器和刹车来判断你是否需要更换新的零件。

B: 好吧,你们那样做的话,看起来不像是浪费时间和钱。

A: 相信我,定期保养,会让你的车子驾驶起来没有任何问题,而且能避免抛锚。
