I open my car door and throw my briefcase 1 in the back seat, and get comfortable for my drive. 我打开车门,把公文包扔到后座上,然后调整了一下,让我开车舒服一点。
I put my coffee mug into the cup holder 2, put the keys in the ignition, find the gas pedal, and start the car. 我把咖啡杯放在杯托上,将钥匙插入点火开关里,找到油门踏板、然后发动汽车。

I turn on the radio to listen to the drive time traffic report. 我打开收音机收听上班高峰期的路况播报。
I take the transmission out of park and into reverse, back out into the driveway into the street, 我把车档由驻车档挂到倒车档,把汽车从车道倒到大街上,
close the garage door, and put the car into drive. 关上车库门,然后把车档挂到前进档。
I used to drive a stick shift, but as I get older, I like my automatic transmission more and more. 我过去常常开手动挡的车,但当我年龄大了以后,我则越来越喜欢开自动挡的车。
I usually take the freeway to the office, so I get on the onramp for the freeway and drive to where I have to get off. 我通常走高速上班,因此,我从匝道上高速,然后开到我得下高速的地方。
My office is only a few miles from the exit. 我的工作地离高速公路出口只有几英里远。
I pull into the parking garage, swiping my key card to get in. 我把车开到停车场,然后刷钥匙卡进停车场。
I park, grab my briefcase and coffee, and head toward the elevator. 我停好车,拿上公文包和咖啡,然后前往电梯处。
