What's going on?
怎么了?
Your room cold?

Student: It's freezing in my room.
学生:我的房间冷死了。
I think the heat went out or something.
我想是暖气灭了或者什么问题。
Employee: Are you sure it's out?
雇员:你确定是灭了吗?
Maybe it just got turned out too far.
也许是调过头了。
Oh, no. I tried adjusting the, uh, the heat control, but it doesn't make any difference.
不,我试着调节过加热控制,但一点儿作用也没有。
It's so cold in my bedroom I can't sleep at night.
我的卧室太冷了,我晚上都睡不着觉。
I've actually been sleeping on the sofa in the front room. The heat still works in there.
我其实已经睡在客厅的沙发上了,那里的暖气还管用。
Actually, we get hot air in all the bedrooms except ours.
事实上,所有的卧室都有暖气,除了我们的卧室。
Employee: Wow! Do you have a roommate?
雇员:哇!你有室友吗?
Student: Yeah. But she said she isn't bothered by the cold.
学生:是的。但是她说她不怕冷。
But on the sofa, I am kept up by the noise out in the hall.
但是睡在沙发上,我总是被大堂的噪音吵醒。
The dorms can sometimes get pretty noisy.
卧室有时候会变得非常吵。
So what can be done about it?

Employee: Well, OK. There's a couple of things we can do.
雇员:好的,有一些事情我们可以做。
I can have a custodian take a look at it and see if he can do something.
我可以让管理人去看看有什么他可以做的。
Student: Actually, I asked the custodian yesterday to take a look.
学生:我昨天其实已经让管理人看过了。
But he said he couldn't find anything wrong.
但是他说他不知道哪儿出了问题。
He said that some of the other rooms have lost heat also and that if we'd come here you guys would fix it.
他说其他房间的暖气也没有了,如果我们找到这里,你们就可以修好它。
Employee: Oh, he did?
雇员:他是这么说的吗?
That's weird, because I would have...well, the custodians themselves are usually supposed to report any problems right away.
这很奇怪,因为我本想……好吧,管理人通常应该立刻报告任何问题。
OK. In that case, then what you need to do is...here, fill out this form.
好的,在这种情况下,你要做的就是在这里填好这张表。
Student: I have to fill out a form?
学生:我必须要填表吗?
Employee: Yeah, but at least that'll put your heater problem in a work order for the maintenance crew and they'll get to you as soon as possible.
雇员:是的,但是至少将你的暖气问题写在维修工作单上报告给维修队,他们会尽快联系你。
Just so you know, because it's not winter yet and it's not as cold as it could be, it may take a few days for a maintenance crew to get to you.
你要知道,因为还不是冬天,而且外面也没那么冷,所以维修队会在几天后联系你。
Student: A few days?
学生:几天?
I can't even sleep in my own room!
我甚至不能在我的房间里睡觉!
Can't we just get an electric heater?
我们不能用电暖器吗?
Employee: I am sorry.
雇员:对不起。
But students just aren't allowed.
但是不允许学生这么做。
OK. I can see that this is a problem, and not just with your room.
好的,我明白这是一个问题,而且不止是你一个人的房间。
So if you can get the form back to me this afternoon, I'll try to get a maintenance crew to look at your problem by tomorrow.
所以,如果你能在今天下午把表格交给我,我会试着让维修队明天去看看你的问题。
How's that?
怎么样?
Student: Oh, that would be great.
学生:这太棒了。
Seriously. I have to take off now.
说真的,我现在得走了。
But when I fill this form out, I give it to you, right?
但是当我一填完这张表就给你,对吗?
Employee: Right. And if I am not here, just put it in my box and I'll get it.
雇员:对。如果我不在这儿,就把它放在盒子里,我会看到的。
