My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw n ewspaper advertisements for the se t at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.
Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.
When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62,
and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.
我的彩电除了头疼什么也没给我。我是在一年多前买的,因为我的亲戚在我生日时给了我钱,而不是我穿不合身的衣服。我被一个售货员骗了,买了一个停产的型号。一天后,当我在报纸上看到这台电视机的广告时,我意识到这一点,广告上的价格比我买的要低75美元。当我第一次把它带回家的时候,它工作得非常好,以至于我一直开着它,直到电视台结束了晚上的节目。幸运的是,我没有看到任何播放通宵电影的频道,否则我永远也不会上床睡觉。
然后,我开始在这台电视机上发现一个涉及静电噪音的问题。由于某种原因,当某些节目切换到商业广告时,会发出几秒钟的巨响。渐渐地,这种噪音开始在演出中出现,为了消除它,我不得不换到另一个频道,然后再换回来。有时这种方法行不通,我不得不拿起音响,摇晃它来消除声音。我实际上开始锻炼我的手臂肌肉了。
当这两种方法都不能消除静电噪音时,我会无助地坐着,等待噪音消失。最后,我用我的第一台打字机打了电视机,它完全停止工作了。我去修理店花了62美元,现在这台机器运转良好,但我一直认为会有更多的麻烦。以上翻译结果来自有道神经网络翻译(YNMT)· 通用场景
