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 1. 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 2 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 3 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 4?


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,这是你的跑车吗?

是的,你觉得怎么样?

我喜欢它!我以前一直想要一辆绿色的捷豹.这车的车况怎么样?

从外面看起来很不错,不过一面就大不一样了.再上路的话可能需要好好保养一下.

有什么毛病?

嗯,首先,需要换一个新引擎,那个可能会很贵.

你上一次保养是什么时候?

大概是好几年钱了.

我觉得每辆车最好每年都做一些定期的基础保养.

没错.只要我儿子一出生就没有理由再开这辆车了,要知道,毕竟它是两人座的!

还有什么其它毛病吗?

空调坏了,所以车里从感觉像是有100度,尤其是在夏天!

还有吗?

刹车也不太灵了.

你为什么不大修一次?

养一辆车比你想象的要费钱得多,特别是有很多零件都不好用的时候.

你修好之后告诉我一声,我非常喜欢坐车旅行的感觉.
