NIKKY: u know, brian, my car broke down(抛锚)on the freeway yesterday
BRIAN: o, that’s so bad, how did u then get home? (那你是怎么回家的?)
NIKKY: well, we got a call box(急救电话) on the road every hundred meter and connect the freeway service patrol(巡逻)
BRIAN: and they got the spare tire(多余的轮胎)?
NIKKY: yes
BRIAN: how much for that, nikky
NIKKY: it’s free, and it’s free in the rush hour(高峰期), and they didn’t even receive the tips despite of my insistence(我一再坚持,他们还是不收我的小费)
BRIAN: does that mean if not in the rush hour, they will charge for the spare tire? (是不是如果不是在高峰期,他们就会收取轮胎的费用了?)
NIKKY: not exactly, I joined the AAA (American Automobile Association) , once u r in trouble, and just made a call to aaa, they will take the patrol for u.
BRIAN: o, I joined the CBA
【注】我想说的是Chinese Bicycle Association
NIKKY: what’s that?
BRIAN: same like AAA in America
NIKKY: o
BRIAN: and once I am in trouble, and make the phone call, a tow truck(拖车) will be there in 20 minutes
NIKKY: o, that’s cool
BRIAN: well, I think---u know, a lot of Chinese do incredible work with their career, and I think definitely that u have to be here if u want to know more about the current China.
