As I drove into a parking lot, I noticed that a pickup truck with a dog sitting behind the wheel was rolling toward a female pedestrian. She seemed oblivious, so I hit my horn to get her attention. She looked up just in time to jump out of the way of the truck's path. I rushed to see if she was all right. “I'm fine,” she assured me, “but I hate to think what could have happened to me if that dog hadn't honked.”
我開車進到一個停車場的時候,看到一條狗坐在一輛小型卡車的方向盤后面,正朝著一個步行的婦女滑行過去。她似乎沒有覺察。于是我就按喇叭警告她。她及時抬起頭來,跳出卡車的行進路線。我趕緊跑過去看看她有沒有受傷。她說:“我沒事。不過我不敢想象,如果那條狗不按喇叭的話,我會出什么事?!?
