(单词翻译)

A: Hello, Tom? This is Hannah in 4C.

B: Hi, Hannah. What can I do for you?

A: My garbage disposal went south.

B: Does it turn at all?

A: There is nothing but silence when I turn on the switch.

B: Did it die suddenly?

A: It started to make a weird1 sound last week.

B: You didn't try to grind2 up a dead body, did you?

A: No, that's against the law, isn't it? I only use it on soft food, maybe once a week.

B: Strange as it seems, a disposal should be run frequently.

A: Once a week might not be enough, huh?

B: There's a key that will turn it manually to loosen3 it up.

A: Even if I could find this key, I wouldn't know how to use it.

B: How about if I bring one over and show you how to use it?

A: Great, come on over, and teach me all about garbage disposal keys.

B: The key isn't a guarantee. I still might have to call a repairman.

A: It's no big deal to me if you can fix it or not.

B: Well, we don't want the food that's in there to start to smell bad, do we?
