Don't be chicken / Не будь трусишкой
Alice: Алиса: | I have to get my California driver's license, but I'm too freaked out to drive. |

Tammy: Тэмми: | Are you that nervous? |
Alice: Алиса: | Yes. |
Tammy: Тэмми: | Don't be chicken. After you get more experience, you'll be used to it. |
Alice: Алиса: | People get on my nerves when they cut me off on the freeway. |
Tammy: Тэмми: | I know what you mean. When I was sixteen, I kept dragging my feet about signing up for a driving class. |
Alice: Алиса: | I wish I had someone to keep me company and show me the ropes. |
Tammy: Тэмми: | Honestly, I'm not a good teacher. What about Steve? He's a back-seat driver and loves to tell others how to drive. |
Alice: Алиса: | Oh, I'm afraid I'll trouble him. |
Tammy: Тэмми: | You mean you'd hate to put him on the spot. |
Alice: Алиса: | No, I don't hate him at all. |
Tammy: Тэмми: | What I mean is that you don't want to put him to any trouble, right? |
Alice: Алиса: | Yeah, that's what I mean. |
Tammy: Тэмми: | We're all buddies. I'm sure he'd love to help you out. Besides, he owes me a favor. |
Alice: Алиса: | Thanks! You sure know how to cheer up a friend. |
