NICK: I like the Honda Accord you showed me before.
I think it's more practical for my needs.
JOHN: Alright, sir. You are making a good choice.
Honda has made a lot of design improvements in the new Accord.
NICK: What does it come with standard?
JOHN: On all our new cars, the standards include:
air conditioning, anti-lock brakes, air bags, and an AM/FM stereo with a CD player.
But on the Accord, there is another standard item as well.
The Accord comes with cruise control.
NICK: Cruise control? I don't like that.
JOHN: Why not, sir?
NICK: I think it's dangerous. What if I can't turn it off?
JOHN: Well, sir, I know some of our customers are concerned about cruise control.
But Honda has never had a single cruise control malfunction that led to an accident.
NICK: I wish it didn't have cruise control. My wife doesn't like it either.
JOHN: You know, sir, you don't have to use it.
You can turn it on or off. If you don't want to use it, you just never turn it on.
NICK: I suppose. And what about the sunroof? Is that standard?
JOHN: No, the sunroof is optional, sir.
NICK: I see. Another important question is the time I can get this car.
I need a new car rather soon.
JOHN: Well, I can say that the new models will be here in August.
If you order one now, we will have it for you in August.
NICK: That's good enough, I think. What colors does the new Accord come in?
JOHN: We have this new model in red, white, black, or silver.
These are the standard colors.
Of course you could specially order from various other colors too.
NICK: My brother has last year's Accord.
And his car is a kind of soft purple color mixed with silver.
I really like that color. I wonder if I can get that color on my Accord.
JOHN: I know the color you mean. Is this it, sir?
NICK: Yes, I think that's it. Can I get that on the Accord?
JOHN: Yes, you can.
That color is very popular with Honda buyers. So we've kept it available.
NICK: Well, I think I want to order the new Accord then.
It looks like an excellent car.
JOHN: You have made a good choice, sir.
I drive an Accord myself. They are very solidly built machines, very reliable.
NICK: Yes, I know. I think Honda is the most reliable car on the road.
I would never change to anything else.
The Honda I have now almost never has service problems. It runs smooth as silk.
JOHN: Alright, sir. I will get the paperwork ready for you. Just a moment.
尼克:我喜歡上次你介紹給我的那部本田雅閣。
它比較符合我的需求。
約翰:好的,先生。你選對了。
本田在新款雅閣的設計上做了很多改進。
尼克:基本配備是什么呢?
約翰:我們新車的基本配備包括:
空調、防死鎖煞車、氣囊和附有 AM/FM 調頻以及 CD 的音響。
但是雅閣還有另一項基本配備。
就是定速器。
尼克:定速器?我不喜歡那個。
約翰:為什么不呢?
尼克:我覺得很危險,萬一不能解除設定呢?
約翰:有些顧客很在意定速器的問題。
但是雅閣的車從來沒有因為定速器故障而導致意外事件。
尼克:我希望不要有定速器,我太太也不喜歡。
約翰:先生,你不必用到它。
你可以激活或解除設定,如果你不想用,不要激活它就好。
尼克:我想也是。那么天窗呢?是基本配備嗎?
約翰:不是。天窗是選擇性的。
尼克:這樣啊。再一個重要的問題是什么時候可以拿車。
我很快就需要車子。
約翰:新的款式八月份會到。
如果你現(xiàn)在訂購,我們八月份可以交車。
尼克:那還不錯。新款式的雅閣有什么顏色?
約翰:新款式的顏色有紅色、白色、黑色和銀色。
這些都是標準顏色。
當然你也可以特別指定其它的顏色。
尼克:我哥哥有一輛去年的雅閣車子。
是淡紫色混合銀色。
我很喜歡那個顏色,我可不可以選那個顏色?
約翰:我知道你說的顏色。是這個嗎?先生。
尼克:是的,就是那個。我可以選那種色嗎?
約翰:可以。
那個顏色在雅閣的車子中是很受歡迎的,所以我們接受指定那種顏色。
尼克:那么我想訂購一輛雅閣的新款車。
看起來像是很棒的車子。
約翰:你的選擇正確。
我自己也開雅閣的車,很堅固,很可靠。
尼克:是的。我認為雅閣是路面上最可靠的車子。
我不會改變心意的。
我現(xiàn)在開的雅閣幾乎沒有送修的問題,它跑得像絲綢一般平順。
約翰:好的,我?guī)湍闾顚戀Y料,請稍等。
