情景对话:
A: Gosh, the escalator is under repair again?
B: That means we have to take the staircase.
A: Is this the third time in the same month?
B: The third time? I think it's the fourth time, probably.
A: Why is the escalator malfunctioning so frequently?
B: I think it's still under a warranty period. The manufacturer should be held accountable.
A: Well, look. There's an elevator over there. I think we cantake it.
B: Oh, that's really a relief. God knows how tiresome it can be walking to the seventh floor.
A: Come on. We need to hurry.
B: OK, here I am.
A: Remember last time when we were trapped in a lift?
B: Yeah, it was kinda scary. I remember there were no other riders at that time. Just two of us.
A: Yes. When finally it started operating again, I was like"Oh, thank God".
