背景介绍：Penny和Howard陪着Sheldon去车管局考驾照。此刻他们正排队交申请表。

Woman：Take this to the testing area, put your name at the top, sign the bottom, answer the questions, bring it back. Next. Application?
带这个去测试区，在上面写上名字，下面签字，回答完问题交回来，下一个，申请？
Sheldon：I'm actually more of a theorist.
我实际上更多是理论家。

（application是申请表的意思，也有应用、应用学之意。工作人员是问Sheldon申请表呢？，而他却以为人家再问他是不是搞应用学的。其实他是个理论物理学家。）

Howard：The application in your hand. Give it to her.
是说你手里的申请表。给她。
Woman：Take this to the testing area, Put your name at the top, sign the bottom, answer the questions, bring it back. Next!
带这个去测试区，在上面写上名字，下面签字，回答完问题交回来，下一个！
Sheldon：Excuse me, but I have some concerns about these questions.
抱歉，对这些问题我有些疑问。

Woman：Look at that sign up there.
看看那的牌子。
Sheldon：Yes?
怎么了？
Woman：Does it say "I give a damn"?
上面写了"我在乎"吗？
Sheldon：No.
没。
Woman：That's because I don't.
那是因为我不在乎。

（give a damn 同give a shit，是一个不太礼貌的说法，表示关心、在乎）
Sheldon：Just look. See, this first question makes no sense.
看啊，第一个问题就说不通。
Should you leave in front of you when driving?
你开车时车距应该保持几个车身?
There's no possible way to answer that. A "car length" is not a standardized unit of measure.
没有可能能回答这个问题。车身长不是个标准化的度量单位。
Woman：Look at the sign.
看看那个牌子......
Penny：Sheldon, it's "c.just put down "c."
Sheldon答案是"C" ，就写"C"。
Sheldon：I don't need your help, penny.
我不需要你的帮忙Penny。
Woman：Listen to that little girl, honey. Put "c." next!
听那个小姑娘的宝贝写上"C"。下一个！
Sheldon：No, wait! No, hang on. Look at this next question.
别，等下，等等。看看下一个问题。
Howard：Sheldon, why are you arguing with the DMV?
Sheldon你为何要和车管局争执？
Sheldon：How else are they going to learn?
否则他们怎么进步？
