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 a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t got 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 fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.
我的彩色电视机只让我头疼。一年多前,我买了它,因为我的亲戚给了我钱作为生日礼物,而不是很多不合身的衣服。我让一个售货员骗我买了一个停产的型号。我晚了一天才意识到这一点,当时我在报纸上看到了这套比我付的少75美元的广告。当我第一次把它带回家的时候,这套电视机运行得非常漂亮,我会一直开着它,直到晚上电视台结束。幸运的是,我没有任何频道播放通宵电影,否则我就永远睡不着了。
然后我开始开发一个涉及静态的集合的问题(静电)噪音出于某种原因,当某些节目切换到广告时,会有几秒钟的巨大噪音。渐渐地,这种噪音开始出现在一个节目中,为了消除它,我不得不换到另一个频道,然后再换回来。有时这种技术不起作用,我不得不拿起电视机摇晃它来消除声音。事实上,我开始锻炼手臂肌肉(肌肉)摇晃我的电视机。
当这两种方法都没有消除静态噪音时,我会无助地坐着,等待噪音消失。最后,我用拳头打了那个片场,它完全停止了作用。我去修理厂花了62美元,这台电视机现在运行得很好,但我一直期待着更多的麻烦。
