    MR. WOOD: Is my car ready yet?
    ATTENDANT: I don't know. sir.
    What's the number of your car?
    MR. WOOD: It's is LFZ 312G.
    ATTENDANT: When did you bring it to us?
    MR. WOOD: I brought it here three days ago.
    ATTENDANT: Ah, yes, I remember now.
    MR. WOOD: Have your mechanics finished yet?
    ATTENDANT: No, they're still working on it.
    Let's go into the garage and have a look at it.
    ATTENDANT: Isn't that your car?
    MR. WOOD: Well, it was my car.
    ATTENDANT: Didn't you have a crash?
    MR. WOOD: That's right.
    I drove it into a lamp-post.
    Can your mechanics repair it?
    ATTENDANT: Well,
    they're trying to repair it,sir.
    But to tell you the truth.you need a new car!
    伍德先生:我的汽車修好了嗎?
    服 務(wù) 員:我不知道,先生。
    您的汽車牌號(hào)是多少?
    伍德先生:是 LFZ312G。
    服 務(wù) 員:您什么時(shí)候送來的?
    伍德先生:3天前。
    服 務(wù) 員:啊,是的,我現(xiàn)在記起來了。
    伍德先生:你們的機(jī)械師修好了嗎?
    服 務(wù) 員:沒有,他們還在修呢。
    我們到車庫去看一下吧。
    服 務(wù) 員:這難道不是您的車嗎?
    伍德先生:唔,這曾是我的車。
    服 務(wù) 員:難說您沒有出車禍嗎?
    伍德先生:是啊。我把汽車撞在電線桿上了。
    你們的機(jī)械師能修好嗎?
    服 務(wù) 員:啊,他們正設(shè)法修呢,先生。
    不過說實(shí)在的,您需要一輛
    新車了。1.When did you bring it to us? 您什么時(shí)候送來的?
    bring表示“送來”、“帶來”和“拿來”的意思,在方位上多指朝說話人而來。
    2.…they're still working on it. ……他們還在修呢。
    work on 表示“從事”、“干”(某事)。 still是“仍然”、“還在”的意思,此處在句中對(duì) working on it起了強(qiáng)調(diào)的作用。
    3.have a look at it, 看一下。
    這里的 it指 car,以避免重復(fù)。這里的 look是名詞,have a look at與 look at意思是一樣的。
    4.Isn't that your car? 這難道不是您的車嗎?
    Didn't you have a crash? 難道您沒有出車禍嗎?
