  A: Car trouble center. How may I help you?

B: My car won’t start! Stupid old car!

A: Hold on, before you kick your car let’s go through some possible problems.

B: Fine.

A: OK, first of all, can you turn the key in the ignition?

B: Yeah!  I am here with my friend and he thinks it may be the spark 1 plug or the starter motor.

A: Those are possible problems, but tell me, when you turn the key, do you hear the starter motor crank?

B:  Yeah, it sounds like it usually does when I start the car, but nothing else happens. The engine won’t  start. Should I maybe press the accelerator?

A: No. If you step on the accelerator pedal 2 you can flood the carburetor and your car will never start.

B: So what do you think it is?

A: I know this may seem like a silly question, but does your car have gasoline 3?

B: Umm. yeah! Right! I got the car started! Thanks for your help! I told you to fill the tank!

B: 好吧。

A: 首先,你转动钥匙来点了吗?

B: 是的,我和朋友在一起,他认为可能是火花塞或起动电动机的问题。

A: 这些都可能存在问题。但是你先告诉我,当你转动钥匙时,你听到发动机转动了吗?

B: 是的,声音挺起啦和平时发东车子时是一样的,但是车并没有发哦那个。引擎并没有发哦那个,我应该踩油门吗?

A: 不要。如果你踩油门,汽化器会出问题,车子就启动不了。

B: 你认为是什么问题?
