　　The line is fuzzy.

　　电话线路不清楚。

　　line在句子中指的是“电话线路”，而fuzzy的意思是“模糊不清的”。这句话的正确意思是：“电话线路不清楚”。因此，当美国人说"The line is fuzzy."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"The line is vague¹."、"We cannot hear clearly through the line."。

　　情景对白：

　　Benjamin: I'm sorry. Would you please say it again? The line is fuzzy.

　　本杰明：对不起。您能再说一遍吗？电话线路不清楚。

　　Client²: Sure. Can we meet at 2 p.m. this afternoon?

　　客户：好的。我们下午两点见面好吗？

　　②It's really strange since I had it repaired not long ago.

　　真奇怪，我不久前才找人修过啊。

　　③It is always like that. I am tired of it.

　　④You can ask someone to check it.

　　你可以找人来检查一下。
