When Dave was eighteen, he bought a secondhand car for $200 so that he could travel to
and from work more easily than by bus. It worked quite well for a few years, but then it
got so old, and it was costing him so much in repairs that he decided that he had better sell it.
He asked among his friends to see if anyone was particularly anxious to buy a cheap car,
but they all knew that it was falling to pieces, so none of them had any desire to buy it. Dave's
friend Sam saw that he was upset when they met one evening, and said, "What's up, Dave?"
Dave told him, and Sam answered, "Well, what about advertising it in the paper? You may
get more for it that way than the cost of the advertisement!" Thinking that Sam's
advice was sensible(合理的), he put an advertisement in an evening paper, which read "For
sale: small car, uses very little petrol, only two owners. Bargain at 50."
For two days after the advertisement first appeared, there was no reply .But then on
Saturday evening he had an enquiry. A man rang up and said he would like to see him
about the car. "All right," Dave said, feeling happy. He asked the man whether ten o'clock the
next morning would be suitable or not. "Fine," the man said, "and I'll bring my wife. We
intend to go for a ride in it to test it."

Answer 1

当大卫十八岁的时候，他为了比搭公车上班更轻松简单点，用200美元买了部二手车，这部车在几年内很好用，但是大卫花了太多的钱去维修这部已经很老的车，他最终决定把这部车卖掉。他几乎问遍了他所有的朋友看看是不是刚刚好有人迫切的需要买一部便宜的汽车，但是大卫所有的朋友都知道这个车不值的买，所以他们都没有购买这车的欲望。大卫的朋友山姆在某天晚上见面的时候看到大卫很沮丧，于是他问：大卫你怎么了？大卫告诉了他事情始末，山姆回答他：好吧，为什么我们不试试在报纸上登广告呢 ？你可能获得的比登广告花的还要多的钱呢 ，大卫想想，觉得山姆的建议还是很合理的，他在晚报上登了个个广告---出售：小车，不费油只经手了两个主人，一口价50美元。
当他的启示登上报纸的两天后，没有任何回应，但是在礼拜六晚上他收到了一个询问消息，一个男人打电话过来说他想看看这部车，“好吧”大卫很开心的答应了，他问这个男人明天早上10点钟方便过来看车吗？“好的”这个男人说，“并且我还要带我老婆一起去，我们想试开一下来测试它的性能”

还有一段没翻译 帮下忙 The next morning, at a quarter to ten, Dave parked the car in the square outside his front door,

追答

第二天早晨，在10:15的时候，大卫把车停在门前的广场上

追问

因为字数限制 meaning to wait there for the people who had answered his advertisement. Even Dave had
to admit that the car really looked like a wreck(残骸).

追答

打算在那等着回复了他的广告信息的那个人，就算是大卫也不得不得承认那车看起来就是个残骸

Answer 2

大卫12岁的时候，花200美元买了辆二手车用来旅行和更加方便地上班。头几年车子挺好用，时间 久了就变旧了，修车会花费他很多钱，所以他考虑还是卖掉它。
他向他朋友们打听是否有谁急需买辆便宜车的，但他的朋友们都知道车况支离破碎，所以没人愿意买。大卫的朋友山姆有天晚上遇到大卫发现他很沮丧，他对大卫说：咋了，大卫？大卫告诉山姆烦心事，山姆说：哦，印纸上发广告咋样？你可能会得到比电视上做广告更好的效果。考虑到山姆的建议很合理，大卫在晚报上刊登了一则广告，上面写道：小型车，低耗油，只有两个车主用过，一口价50刀。
第一次刊登广告天天后，没有人回应。但在礼拜六晚上大卫接收了一个询价人。高兴之下，他问询价人第二天10点见面行否。“可以”。询价人说，而且我会带上我的老婆，我们要开开车测试一下车况。
