過去簡單式

Hey Kevin! Where were you in the morning?

Why? What happened? Is everything alright?

My car broke down today and I had to miss such an important meeting.

The mechanic said that there was a problem with the radiator.

Not yet, but the mechanic is taking care of   it. I'll get it back by Tuesday.

So, I wouldn’t worry. It’s not a major problem.   But how will you commute till Tuesday?

Why don't we share a taxi until you get your car back?

I used to have the same problem with my   old car. Did you check the battery?

Yeah. It was dead in the morning. I called   the mechanic to give my car a jump.

Well, I guess if you need to jump-start your car,   you probably need to buy a new battery.

What are you saying? I bought this battery just a couple of months ago.

I don't think I should have a problem with it every second day.

I guess the dealer sold you an old one. Did   he give you any warranty card with it?

Then call the dealer and ask him to replace it.   You are still eligible to claim the warranty

All right. Thanks for your help. I'll call the dealer right now.

Hi Burt. How is it going with the new car?

My brand new car turned out to be a piece of junk.

I got the top model and now it just doesn't run.

Didn't you take a test drive before buying it?

I did. But at that time it was running just fine. It's   just been a month and it’s given me so many headaches.

You must contact the dealer. Did you try telling him about the situation?

I have been trying his number for the past   2 days, but I can’t reach him.

I'm sorry to say this, but I think you bought a lemon.

My name is Burt Andrews. I got a   car from your showroom a month ago.

The car has been giving me trouble from the start.

I’m really sorry for the inconvenience Mr. Andrews. Can you   please confirm the make and model of the car?

All right. I’ll send our mechanic to your place in the evening today.

He’ll check your car and fix it up,   if possible. Otherwise, we’ll replace it.

I bought this battery just a couple of months ago. I don't   think I should have a problem with it every second day.

Then call the dealer and ask him to replace it.   You are still eligible to claim the warranty.
