ESL杰夫的一天 第55期:开车上班讲解(6)(在线收听) |
Sometimes it's called a transmission box, "box," and inside of that box there are little wheels called gears, "gears," 有时又称它为变速箱(box),变速箱里面有叫做齿轮(gears)的小轮子, and depending on the gear you are in, we would say, depending on the gear you are using, you will either go very fast or not very fast, or you will go in reverse, "reverse." 我们会说,你跑的快还是慢,还是倒车(reverse)都决于你正在使用的齿轮。
To go into reverse means to go backwards — the car moves backwards. “To go into reverse”是倒车的意思。
Well, before I go anywhere, I have to "take the transmission out of park," "park." 那个,在我出发之前,我得“挂挡”。
Park is when the car is not going forward or going backwards. “Park”是汽车既不往前开也不往后开的状态。
We say you put the transmission into park, and you take it out of park. 我们说你把车档挂到驻车档,然后你再挂挡。
And when you take it out of park, you either go forward or backwards. 你挂挡的时候,你要么往前开要么是往后开。
Well, here I'm going in reverse, and I "back out into the driveway." 那个,我在这里是挂倒车档,并且“把车倒到车道上”。
To back out means to go backwards. “Back out”是“往后开”的意思。
Usually that verb, to back out, is used when you are talking about a car or a truck that is leaving a garage, and it's going in reverse — you back out of the garage. 在谈到汽车或卡车离开车库的时候通常会用到“Back out”这个动词词组,“it's going in reverse”就是说你将车倒出车库。 |
