Hi, I have a reservation to pick up a car. The name is Wang, confirmation number RC-7742.

你好,我预订了一辆车来取。姓王,确认号 RC-7742。

Welcome, Mr. Wang! Let me pull that up. I see a mid-size sedan reserved for five days. May I have your driver's license and a credit card?

欢迎,王先生!让我查一下。我看到预订了一辆中型轿车,五天。请出示驾照和信用卡。

Here's my international driver's license and my passport. And here's my credit card.

这是我的国际驾照和护照。这是信用卡。

Thank you. Now, your reservation includes basic liability coverage. Would you like to add our Collision Damage Waiver? It's $19 per day and covers any damage to the vehicle.

Yes, I'd like to add the collision waiver. Better safe than sorry.

Smart choice. A couple of things to go over: the car comes with a full tank. Please return it with a full tank, or we'll charge $8.99 per gallon for refueling.

明智的选择。说几个注意事项:车是满油取车,请满油还车,不然加油费是每加仑8.99美元。

Understood. What kind of fuel does it take?

明白。加什么油?

Regular unleaded. There's a gas station about half a mile from here on the way back, which is very convenient for filling up before you return.

I filled up the tank at the gas station down the road. Here's the receipt.
