ATTENDANT: Can I help you, sir?
SAM: Yes, I've been sitting here for a few minutes.
I'm waiting for someone to put gas in my car.
ATTENDANT: I'm sorry, sir. But this is the self-service pump.
SAM: Self-service?
ATTENDANT: Yes. You must fill up the car yourself.
SAM: Are you serious?
ATTENDANT: Yes. Are you traveling here?
SAM: Yes, I'm from Taiwan. I never heard of a gas station where you fill up your own car.
ATTENDANT: In America, most gas stations are like this.
SAM: Do I really have to do it? I don't know how.
ATTENDANT: Well, since this is your first time, I will do it for you.
But next time, if you want a full-service gas station, you should look at the sign.
SAM: What sign?
ATTENDANT: Under the sign for the gas station,
there will be a smaller sign that says “Self-Serve” or “Full-Service.”
And some gas stations have both.
But if they have both, some pumps will be self-serve and some will be full-serve.
You have to look at the signs.
SAM: I see.
ATTENDANT: What kind of gas does this car take?
SAM: I don't know. It's a rental.
ATTENDANT: I will give you premium unleaded. Alright?
SAM: Sure, why not?
ATTENDANT: That is the pump you are in front of.
SAM: Is it expensive?
ATTENDANT: It is the most expensive.
SAM: Well, I don't want it then. Can I move to another pump?
ATTENDANT: Yes, I can give you regular unleaded. But you have to back up the car a little.
SAM: Give me regular unleaded then. I will back up.
Can you wash my windows for me?
ATTENDANT: I'm sorry, sir. This is not a full service gas station.
I will help you fill the gas, but we don't wash windows here.
SAM: Really? Well, I guess I have to get used to it.
加油站服务员:先生,需要服务吗?
山姆:我在这里等一阵子了。
我在这里等人帮我加油。
加油站服务员:先生,抱歉,这里是自助加油站。
山姆:自助?
加油站服务员:是的,你必须自己加油。
山姆:真的吗?
加油站服务员:是的,你是来旅游的吗?
山姆:是的,我从台湾来,我从未听说过需要自己加油的加油站。
加油站服务员:美国大部份的加油站都是自助的。
山姆:我真的必须自己来吗?我不知道怎么弄。
加油站服务员:既然你没弄过,那我先帮你好了。
下一次如果你想到服务加油站,应该注意一下招牌。
山姆:什么招牌?
加油站服务员:在加油站招牌底下,
有一个小标示写着“自助加油站”或“服务加油站”。
有些加油站两种都有。
如果是两种都有的,自助式和服务式的加油管道会分开。
你要看标示。
山姆:我懂了。
加油站服务员:这辆车加什么油?
山姆:我不知道,这是租来的。
加油站服务员:我给你加优质无铅汽油好吗?
山姆:好啊。
加油站服务员:你前面的加油管就是了。
山姆:很贵吗?
加油站服务员:这是最贵的。
山姆:那我不要这种,我可以换别的吗?
加油站服务员:那我给你加一般无铅汽油,但是你要把车后退一点。
山姆:那么给我一般无铅汽油好了,我后退。
你可以帮我洗一下窗户吗?
加油站服务员:先生,抱歉,这不是服务加油站。
我只能帮你加油,无法帮你洗窗户。
山姆:真的?我想我要慢慢习惯才是。
