Lesson: 課文
1) Only use your horn in case of an emergency. Never beep at people to tell them you are going to pass. This is one of the biggest differences between China's driving culture and the Western.
2) Only pull the emergency brake when you park the car. Never pull the emergency break at a stoplight.
3) Get regular tune-ups and oil changes whenever your car needs it.

5) It is illegal to drive with a cracked or broken windshield.
6) Putting the pedal to the medal may be fun, but if you exceed the speed limit you will get a steep fine.

3)定期給車檢修和換油。
4)保持擋風玻璃清潔，清除死蟲和碎屑。

Dialogue(對話)
Bob: Let's get into your convertible and put the pedal to the medal.
Sue: I just got a tune up. Now my car is faster than ever.
Bob: Is that all?
Sue: No, I also got a new horn. Now in case of emergencies my horn is twice as loud, so it is twice as safe.
Bob: Safety first is the best policy. Look at that pick up truck, he is turning into oncoming traffic.
Sue: That is not safe.
Bob: Look, his windshield is also cracked, that is against the law.
Sue: I am glad I keep my car in good shape.
Bob: Some people treat their cars like their boyfriends or girlfriends. Most Americans even name their cars. Did you name yours?
Sue: Yes, I named mine Brad Pitt.
Bob: I should have guessed.

鮑勃：看，他的防風玻璃也破了，這是違章駕駛。
蘇茜：真慶幸我的車完好無損。

鮑勃：我應該猜到。

Dialogue(對話)
Present Tense Dialogue 現在時對話
Bob: Hey, Susie, that is a nice new car you have.
Sue: Thanks, I had been saving up for it for three years，ever since I heard your lecture on the benefits of automobiles.
Bob: That's great, but I thought you were going to buy the hatchback so you could transport a lot of things in the back?
Sue: I was, but the convertible is so much more attractive. Plus its normal trunk is fairly large.
Bob: If it makes you happy, you can't beat that.
Sue: That's the truth. Cars were created to make people happy and make work more convenient.
鮑勃：嗨，蘇茜，你的新車很棒。
蘇茜：謝謝，自從聽了你關于汽車優點的講座后，我積蓄了三年才買了這輛車。
鮑勃：很好，我還以為你要買一輛倉門式后背汽車，這樣你可以在后面放很多東西。
蘇茜：我本來是那樣打算的，可是敞蓬車對我更有吸引力。此外，它的車廂也比較大。
鮑勃：如果這令你高興，那最好不過了。
蘇茜：這倒是真的，車本來就是造來讓人高興和提供方便的。

Sue: You can't beat that.
Bob: You can't beat independence.
Sue: Do you need a ride back to the university?
Bob: Yes, I am late for my own lecture. Step on it! (Please drive fast)
鮑勃：接下來你要買什么樣的車?
蘇茜：我已經有一輛敞蓬車了，我想我的第二輛車應該是一輛倉門式后背汽車或輕型小貨車。
鮑勃：是嗎，你要輕型小貨車做什么?
蘇茜：可以用來幫我的朋友搬家，還可以用來運送我要買的所有新家具。
鮑勃：輕型小貨車確實給你帶來更多的獨立性。
蘇茜：那真是太好了。
鮑勃：能自立真是很好。
蘇茜：你需要搭車回學校嗎?
鮑勃：是的，我的講座要遲到了。開快點兒!
