    at the gas station給汽車加油
 

 

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen my friends Steve and Liz, and I thought this would be a good weekend to drive up to Santa Barbara to see them.

我已經(jīng)很久沒有見過我的好友斯帝文與里茲了，我想這個周末不妨開車去圣巴巴拉去看他們。

Gas prices have been through the roof, but I decided to take the short road trip anyway.

雖然現(xiàn)在油價飛漲，但我還是決定開車去看他們。

Before getting on the road, I went to the gas station to fill up my tank.

I drove past the full-service pump and parked at the first self-service one.

出發(fā)前，我先去加油站去加油我駛過了一個有人工服務(wù)的加油機(jī)，而停在了一個自助服務(wù)的加油機(jī)前。

I got out of the car and saw that there was an “out of order” sign telling customers to pay inside.

我下了車才發(fā)現(xiàn)這個機(jī)器前列了個牌子“機(jī)器損壞”，要求大家去店里付款。

I wanted to pay at the pump so I got back into the car and pulled up to the next one. Luckily for me, this one was working.

我只想在加油機(jī)前付款，于是我鉆進(jìn)汽車開到了下一個加油機(jī)前，所幸，這個機(jī)器是好的。

I swiped my credit card and took the gas cap off.

我插入了信用卡，打開油箱的蓋。

I pushed the button for the grade of unleaded gas I wanted and put the nozzle into my tank.

我在加油機(jī)上選擇了我需要的無鉛汽油，然后將加油槍插入我的油箱。

There was a sign on the pump that read, “Do not top off.”

這時加油機(jī)上閃爍著提示，“不要拔出油槍”。

After the tank was full, I replaced the nozzle and pressed the button for a receipt.

等油箱加滿后，我拔出油槍，然后按鈕打出了收據(jù)。

Right when I was about to leave, I noticed that my windows were dirty, so I got the squeegee and some paper towels and cleaned them.

當(dāng)我正要離開的時候，我發(fā)現(xiàn)我的車窗很贓，于是我拿了橡膠滾軸與紙巾擦了擦。

Now, I was ready for my drive up north. 

現(xiàn)在我已經(jīng)可以開車北上了。
