Security guard: Excuse me, sir, I'm afraid you can't park your car here.

Benjamin: Why not？It's my parking space.

Security guard: I'm afraid not, sir.

Benjamin: Oh? That's a surprise. Let me see…D 0411 Our dog's birthday. Yes, I'm sure this my parking space!

Security guard: But I saw a red car always parking here before.

Benjamin: Oh, we've just repainted our car. It was red.

Security guard: Maybe. But the car of this space has a broken rearview mirror on the left.

Benjamin: Yeah. It used to. We got that fixed³ yesterday too.

Security guard: Could you wait for a minute, sir? I'd like to have a check.

Benjamin: Sure, go ahead.

Security guard: Sorry, sir, my mistake. This is your parking space.

Benjamin：That's all right. It's not your fault.

保安：对不起，先生，恐怕您不能把您的车停在这儿。

本杰明：为什么不能？这是我的停车位。

保安：恐怕不是的，先生。

本杰明：是吗？真叫人吃惊。我看看……D0441我们家狗的生日。是的，我肯定这就是我的停车位！

保安：但我以前都是看到一辆红色的车停在这儿来着。

本杰明：哦，我们昨天刚刚给它重新上过漆，它以前是红色的。

保安：也许吧。但这个车位的车的左后视镜是坏的。

本杰明：是啊。它以前是。我们昨天也已经把它修好了。

保安：您能等一会儿吗，先生？我得核实一下。

本杰明：可以，你核实吧。

保安：对不起，先生，我弄错了。这是您的停车位。

本杰明：没关系。这不能怪你。
