A: Are you filing accounts again?
你又在记账呢?
(nǐyòuzài jìzhànɡne?)
B: Yes, I had a lot of parking fees this week.
对, 这周的停车费还不少呢。
(duì, zhèzhōude tínɡchēfèi háibùshǎone.)
A: Have you heard? A new type of intelligent road parking system in downtown Shanghai was officially put into use.
你听说了吗?上海市区有种新型智能道路停车系统正式投入使用。
(nǐtīnɡshuōlema? shànɡhǎi shìqū yǒuzhǒnɡ xīnxínɡ zhìnénɡ dàolù tínɡchē xìtǒnɡ zhènɡshì tóurù shǐyònɡ.)
B: I saw the video. After parking for seven minutes, the indicator light under the parking space changed from green to red, and a metal ground lock was raised, blocking the chassis of the vehicle.
我看到视频了。停车7分钟后, 停车位下面的指示灯由绿转红, 金属地锁升起, 卡住车身底盘。

A: I don't know if there is any risk to blocking the chassis.
卡住底盘, 不知道有没有风险。
(kǎzhù dǐpán, bùzhīdào yǒuméiyǒu fēnɡxiǎn.)
B: I'm also worried about this. I drive a new energy car, the chassis is the battery. The risk is that the battery could deform and catch fire.
我也担心这个, 我开的可是新能源汽车, 底盘就是电池。风险就是电池变形着火。
