회화와 문법을 동시에 공부하는 Everyday English VOA 매일 영어 진행에 이은경입니다. 오늘은 훤히 꿰뚫고 있다, 어떤 것에 대해 너무 잘 알고 있다는 표현 영어로 배워보겠습니다. 대화 들어보시죠.

A: John, do you know anything about copy machines?

J: I know them backwards and forwards. What do you need help with?

A: The office copy machine is acting up again. It's making these weird noises, and the copies are coming out all distorted.

J: No worries! I've dealt with that issue before. First, check if there's a paper jam. Open all the compartments and make sure there's no stray paper causing trouble.

A: I tried that. What's next?

J: If the paper path is clear, it might be a toner issue. Check if the toner cartridge is properly seated or if it's low or empty. Sometimes, just a simple toner replacement does the trick.
