Darren:Wait a minute. What's going on? Now there's a problem with my computer! (達倫:等一下,這是怎麼回事?現在換我的電腦有問題了!)
Darren grabs the receiver and calls the IT department. (達倫抓起話筒,打給資訊部。)
Darren:Hello, this is Darren on 11. My computer is acting up. It's not working properly. (達倫:喂,我是十一樓的達倫。我的電腦出毛病了,它無法正常運作。)
IT:OK, I'll come right up and take a look. (資訊部:好,我馬上上去幫你看一下。)
Darren:Great, thanks. (達倫:太好了,謝謝。)
The moment the IT guy arrives, Darren's computer makes a loud noise and starts smoking. (當資訊部的人到的時候,達倫的電腦發出一個很大的聲響,然後開始冒煙。)
IT:Well, I think your computer is a write-off. It can't be fixed. I have a notebook computer here you can use until we get you a replacement for your desktop computer. (資訊部:呃,我想你的電腦是報銷了;它是修不好了。 在我們幫你弄來一台替換你這台桌上型電腦前, 我這兒有一台筆記型電腦你可以先用。)
Darren:OK, thanks. Hey, this notebook is broken too. It won't boot! (達倫:好,謝謝。嘿,這台筆記型電腦也故障了;它沒辦法開機!)
IT:Let me take a look. No, it's not. The battery has run out of power. Just use the power cord for now. We're short of batteries right now, so I can't give you a new one. (資訊部:讓我看看。沒有,它沒壞,是電池的電用完了。暫時先用電源線吧。 我們目前沒有電池了,所以我沒辦法給你一個新的。)
Darren:No problem. Could you show me how to use some of the software programs for making presentations? (達倫:不要緊。你能不能教我如何使用一些製作簡報的軟體程式?)
IT:Sure. Let's start by clicking this icon here. (資訊部:當然可以。我們就從按下這邊這個圖示開始吧。)
