Three Engineers


 


There were three engineers riding along in a car.


 


They were an electrical engineer, a mechanical engineer and a computer engineer.


 


Suddenly, the car broke down.


 


The electrical engineer said, "Maybe it's a dead battery."


 


The mechanical engineer said,"Maybe the fan belt broke."


 


The computer engineer said,"Let's close all the windows,open them again,and see if that fixes it."


 


Notes 1:


 


1.There were three engineers riding along in a car.


 


有3个工程师坐在一辆汽车里。


 


"ride"可以表示“骑(机动车、自行车)”或“骑马”,也可以表示“搭乘(交通工具)。这里的along不要和alone(单独地)弄混了,两者发音、字形相似,但意思完全不同。


 


engineer [ˌendʒɪˈnɪə(r)] n.工程师


 


2.They were an electrical engineer, a mechanical engineer and a computer engineer.


 


他们一个是电机工程师,一个是机械工程师、还有一个是电脑工程师,


 


electrical [ɪˈlektrɪkl] adj. 有关电气的


 


mechanical [məˈkænɪkl] adj. 机械的


 


3.Suddenly, the car broke down.


 


突然,车子抛锚了。


 


suddenly [ˈsʌdənli] adv.突然地 


 


break down 抛锚


 


4.The electrical engineer said, "Maybe it's a dead battery."


 


电机工程师说:“也许是电池没电了。”


 


battery [ˈbætri] n.电地


 


5.The mechanical engineer said,"Maybe the fan belt broke."


 


机械工程师说:“也许风扇带坏了。”


 


maybe和perhaps都是表示“可能;也许”,但是一般日常生活口语中多用前者,正式场合或书面用语则应使用后者。它们通常都放在句首。


 


6.The computer engineer said,"Let's close all the windows,open them again,and see if that fixes it."


 


电脑工程师说:“我们关掉所有的窗户,再打开,看看是否能修好它。”


 


每当电脑死机或有异常时,通常会关掉所有的视窗 (windows)或重新启动.电脑工程师也用相同的模式来处理他所面临的问题。殊不知,此windows非彼windows。


 


window [ˈwɪndəʊ] n.窗户;电脑视窗
