　　K:This doesn't look like the highway, does it?

　　凯西：这条路看起来不像是高速公路，像吗？

　　E:It sure doesn't. I hate to admit it, but I think I got us lost again.

　　艾凡：确实不像。虽然我不想承认，不过我想我又搞得我们迷路了。

　　K:Don't worry. I'll take out the map from the glove compartment¹ and take a look...Uh, where are we?

　　凯西：别担心。我把地图从杂物柜里拿出来看一下……嗯，我们在哪里？

　　E:Somewhere on the road to Bremen, I think.

　　艾凡：我想我们在往不来梅路上的某个地方。

　　K:Maybe we'd better find a gas station again.

　　凯西：也许我们最好再找一家加油站。

　　E:There doesn't seem to be anything on this road except farm houses. And I don't see any signs, either.

　　艾凡：这条路上除了农舍外似乎没有别的东西了。而且，我也看不到任何路标。

　　K:What should we do?

　　凯西：我们该怎么办呢？

　　E:I'll keep driving ahead. We would lose a lot of time if we backtracked.

　　艾凡：我有个主意了。前头就有家餐馆。我会下车找个会说英语的人问路。

　　K:I hope you can. Neither of us speaks German!

　　凯西：我希望你找得到。我们两个人都不会讲德语！
