常用应急场景
范例一：A green car
M: Lucy, what are your priorities1 when buying a car?
W: I guess the first thing is the price, the second is the size, and of course the color will play a role too. But I have to be honest. It is our today’s responsibility to take care about our environment. Therefore, I will also pay attention to the fuel consumption2 of the car. You know, the rise in gasoline3 prices is huge. So I would rather to consider a smaller car with smaller engine. For which I can also save some tax. Last of the list, I also consider the safety.
M: What about the environmental factors?
W: Well, I do prefer the lower emission4 cars as long as it doesn’t cost much. Some environmentally-friendly cars are really expensive.
M: Sure they are. Some hi-tech devices5 are built in to make sure they pollute less. Some of these green cars have not become standard. So the production costs are still high. But anyway, we should make efforts to start with.
范例二：Maintain6 my car
W: I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it. What’s worse, I just don’t trust those vehicle maintenance7 shops. Sometimes, they overcharge or don’t build those parts I have been paying for. Last week, they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed. You know, my car is just half a year old and also good brand. I was just wondering about all these.
M: There are such shops living on selling parts. I don’t like their service either. All they want is your money. But in the long run, they will be losing costumers. Anyway, car service business is new in China. We all have to control what they are doing. Otherwise, they will not improve.
W: Is it possible to make a compliant8 call to some organization what it’s someone gets rip-off.
M: Yes, there is. Those organizations exist. You always can call a lawyer if you need legal help.
