A：Are you ready for your first driving lesson?准备好上第一节驾驶课了吗?
B：Yes. Which one is the brake again?准备好了.再告诉我一遍哪个是刹车?
A：The pedal on your left is the brake and the one on your right is the gas.你左脚边那个踏板是刹车,右边那个踏板是油门.
B：I’m glad this car is an automatic. I don't like having to change gears.我很高兴这辆车是自动档的.我可不喜欢换挡.
A：Automatics are very simple to drive. The first thing you should do is put your seat belt on.自动挡的车很好开.你要做的头一件事就是要系好安全带.
B：You should also put yours on. you never know what will happen with me in the driver’s seat!你应该把你那边也系上.你永远也不会知道驾驶员这边会发生什么事!
A：Very funny. Next you should check your side mirrors and your rear view mirror. Can you see out of them?真好笑.下一步,你要记得检查两边的侧镜和后视镜.你都能看见吗?
B：I can’t see anything out of the side mirror on your side of the car. Could you move it forward a bit, please?你那边的侧镜我一点都看不见.你能帮我往前调一点吗?
A：How’s that?怎么样?
B：That’s better. Now what?好多了.现在干什么?
A：Check your petrol situation.查看一下你的油表.
B：The tank is almost empty. I guess I’ll drive to the petrol station to fill it up.油箱几乎空了.我想我得开到加油站去加油.
A：That’s a good idea. Put your keys in the ignition, start it up, put the car in reserve, wait for the road to be clear, and then back out of the driveway.你说的对.把钥匙插进点火开关里.发动车,把档位调到倒车档,等路面的车都通过后,慢慢倒出机动车道.
B：I got it. Don’t worry. I’ll get you there in one piece.我开到了.别担心.我保证你能安全到达.
A：Remember, no honking this time. The horn is only for emergencies!记住,这时候不要按喇叭.喇叭只是遇到紧急情况的时候才能用.
B：Why does that cop car behind me have its red lights on?我后面的警车为什么亮起了红灯?
