新世紀走遍美國 第8集 陌生人

EPISODE 8 The Stranger 陌生人

U08-01

Day one: I am driving across the United States. I am leaving the East Coast driving west for new sights, new advantures.

第一天：我開車穿越美國。我離開東岸開車去西部，尋求新事物，新冒險。

Day two: I drove all day through the Midwest.

第二天：我開了一天車穿過中西部。

Day three: I crossed over the Mississippi and into the plains.

第三天：我跨過密西西比河進入平原。

This is the fourth day of my drive across the United States. It's the desert. The land is flat and barren, but beautiful, in a strange way.

這是我穿越美國的第四天。這是一片沙漠。平坦貧瘠的土地，但有一種奇特的美麗。

The music on the radio out here sure is different from Boston. I'm really starting to like this Tex-Mex music.

收音機里地方臺的音樂與在波士頓聽到的的確不一樣。我開始喜歡這種德州墨西哥音樂。

The car has been pretty good so far, but it's a gas guzzler. I have to fill it up a lot.

這輛車依舊很好，但很費油。我必須加很多油才能灌滿油箱。

Hi. What can I do for you?

嗨。我能為你做什么?

Boy, it's a hot one.

天哪，真夠熱的。

Yeah, and I hear it's gonna get hotter . . . Fill it up?

是的，我聽說還要熱哪...加滿么?

Yeah, please. Uh, regular, unleaded . . . Oh, and can you check the oil? Do you have a restroom?

對。請做例行檢查...噢，你能再檢查一下機油嗎?這有衛(wèi)生間嗎?

Yup. It's around the corner. The key's inside.

有，在拐角處。鑰匙在里面。

Excuse me. Where's the key?

對不起，鑰匙在哪?

It's hanging near the door.

就掛在門的附近。

I don't see it.

我看不見。

On the hook . . . by the phone.

電話旁邊，鉤子上。

I put in two quarts of oil.

我加了兩夸脫機油。

Two quarts? Why so much?

兩夸脫機油?為什么這么多?

I don't know. Maybe there's a problem.

我不知道。也許有問題。

Do you really think there's a problem?

你真的認為有問題么?

I can't tell. I'm not a mechanic. But the owner, he'll be back in about an hour. He's a mechanic. You should check with him.

我不太懂。我不是修理工。但老板是修理工，他一個小時后回來，你可以讓他替你查查。

Do you think I should wait?

你認為我應該等等?

It's up to you.

由你決定。

Maybe I'll go on . . . How much do I owe you?

也許我可以繼續(xù)走...付你多少?

That'll be fifteen seventy-five for the gas . . . plus the oil . . . eighteen ninety. Cash or credit card?

15.75元加油費...機油費18.9元。現(xiàn)金還是信用卡?

Cash.

現(xiàn)金。

You drove all the way from Massachusetts by yourself?

你自己從馬薩褚塞一路開過來?

Yup.

是的。

That's a heck of a drive. How far are you going?

那可夠開的。你還要開多遠?

San Francisco.

舊金山。

Keep your eye on that oil, OK?

注意機油，好嗎?

I will. Thanks.

我會的，謝謝。

Good luck!

祝你好運!

Where am I going to sleep tonight? I hope I can find a cheap motel out here. Maybe there's something down this road?

我今晚住在什么地方?希望能找一家便宜的汽車旅館。也許路盡頭會有。

The Sundowner Motel. Great . . .

日落汽車旅館，太棒了...

Oh, no. It's out of business . . .

哦，不。這家停業(yè)了...

San Francisco is still 500 miles away. Heck, I'll drive straight through. No more motels. I'm just gonna get there.

舊金山離這還有500英里。見鬼，我要一直開下去。不再住汽車旅館，我只要一直開到那。

U08-02

Oh, don't tell me . . . Now what am I gonna do?

哦，千萬別...現(xiàn)在我該怎么辦呢?

Hi.

嗨。

Hi-eee!

嗨...

Hello.

你好。

Do you want to roll down your window?

你要搖下車窗嗎?

Car trouble, huh? Look, don't worry about me. I was just taking pictures . . . over there. Well, why don't you pop open the hood, and I'll check it out, OK?

車出問題了，啊?聽著，別擔心我。我只是照相...在那邊。好吧，為什么不打開引擎蓋，讓我來找出毛病，好嗎?

OK. Try it now. OK, start it up.

好啦?，F(xiàn)在試一下。好啦，發(fā)動車子。

Are you all right?

你還好嗎?

Oh, my God, I am so sorry.

哦，天哪，我，很抱歉。

Do you want to sit down? Look, I'm so . . . oh, God, I'm sorry. Let me see. It's not bleeding...

你想坐下來嗎?看，我很...哦，天哪，我很抱歉。讓我看看，沒流血...

It s, it s not your fault. It s OK.

是的，不是你的錯。沒事。

I know it's not my fault, but it's my car and I feel terrible. I should get this hood fixed.

我知道不是我的錯，可這是我的車，我覺得糟透了。我應該把引擎蓋固定住。

Yeah, that's a good idea . . . Look, look, I'm sorry I scared you.

對，這是個好主意...看，看，我很抱歉嚇著你了。

Oh . . . it's OK. It's just with all the stories you hear, you have to be careful.

哦...我沒事。只是聽過很多故事，你必須小心。

So, should we try your car one more time?

那么，我們再試一次?

Yeah.

對。

OK, start it up.

好的，發(fā)動。

I'm afraid I don't know what's wrong with your car. It's not getting any gas. It may be the fuel pump.

恐怕我找不到車子的毛病。發(fā)動機不上油，可能是汽油泵的問題。

Well . . . now what am I going to do?

那么...現(xiàn)在我怎么辦?

I see you're from Massachusetts. Boston?

我看你是從馬薩褚塞州來的。波士頓?

Mm-hmm.

是-的。

Where are you going?

你去哪?

I'm not going anywhere until I get my car fixed.

車子修好前我哪也去不了。

OK, well, why don't we take my car and . . . uh, we'll try to find a gas station or at least a pay phone.

好吧，那么，干嗎不坐我的車...呵，我們去找個加油站或者至少找個電話。

Maybe you could go . . . and I'll . . . uh, just stay here with my car.

也許你可以走了...我會...呵，就和車呆在這。

That's not a good idea. It's late, and everything's going to close soon.

這不是個好主意?，F(xiàn)在晚了，到處很快就要關門了。

Well, there has to be a twenty-four-hour place.

是嗎，總會有24小時營業(yè)的地方。

This isn't Boston. Things pretty much close at sundown.

這不是波士頓。好多地方太陽落山就關門了。

Well, there's got to be a place around here somewhere.

那么，離這不遠總該有個地方吧。

Hey. We're in the middle of nowhere. You may have to wait until morning.

嘿。這兒很偏僻。你得等到天亮。

Oh, I don't, I don't . . . I guess I don't have much choice.

哦，我不，我不...我猜我沒有太多的選擇。

So, you should take anything that's valuable. I think your car will be safe, but you never know . . .

所以，你應該拿上值錢的東西。我想你的車很安全，可誰知道……

My cars just up the road there.

我的車就排在前面。

My name's Alberto . . .

我的名字叫奧博托。

Mine's Rebecca.

我叫麗貝卡。

Nice to meet you.

見到你很高興。

Nice to meet you, too.Are you a photographer?

我也是。你是個攝影師?

No, actually I'm an architect. Photography's just my hobby.

不，實際上我是建筑師。攝影只是我的愛好。

Oh . . . What do you take pictures of?

哦，你拍什么?

Desert, sunsets, shadows . . . light.

沙漠，落日，陰影...光。

Ow.

哦。

What is it? Are you OK?

怎么了?你沒事吧?

I'm fine.

我很好。

Oh, I can drive if you're not feeling well.

哦，如果你覺得不好我來開。

Really, really, I'm fine.

真的，真的，我很好。

U08-03

Do you want me to turn the heat on? The desert gets cold at night.

需要我打開暖風嗎?沙漠在夜里很冷。

Oh, no, I'm fine. Do you have any idea where we are?

哦，不，我很好。你知道我們在哪嗎?

Yeah, Mount Eagle Road. What's that over there?

是的，山鷹公路。那邊是什么?

Looks like a hamburger stand or something. Maybe I could make a phone call from there.

看起來象漢堡包店或什么。也許我能在那打個電話。

Hello! . . . Yo . . . Hey . . .

你好!...你...你好...

Hello. We need a phone . . . We, we have car trouble . . .

你好。我們需要電話...我們，我們的車壞了...

There she goes . . .

又來了...

Ow. . . Hel . . .

哦...你好...

Great! Now what?

真好!現(xiàn)在怎樣?
