和老外聊天的地道口語第20期:不會有人劫機吧?!

Sally: finally we're on board!

Harry: yes. It was so crowded. I'm worn-out. Let's find our seats.

S: are they Window seats or aisle seats?

H: let me see… yes, one window seat and one aisle.

S: ok. But can I trede my seat with you? I prefer the one near the window. I'm a terrible flyer. I always get airsick and can never relax until after I've landed.

H: that's fine. I'd like to be on the aisle anyway. It's easier to get in and out.

S: thanks. Where shall we put our luggage?

H: I think the smaller carry-on bag can go in the overhead compartment, and the others can go under the seat.

S: good idea.

H: don't forget to keep the seat belt on.

S: ok. Hope it's a pleasant trip.

H: yes!

S: and no hijackers.

H: oh, you have too wild of an imagination.

終於上飛機了啊！
是啊，真擠，累死我了，先找座位吧。
是靠窗的還是靠過道的座啊？
我看看，一個靠窗，一個靠過道。
那我能跟你換座位嗎？我暈機，飛機着陸前，我都會很緊張，所以想換座位。
沒問題，我正好想挨着過道呢，進出方便。
太好了，謝謝！行李放哪裏啊？
小的隨身包就放上面的行李架上，其他的放座位底下吧。
好的。
別忘了繫好安全帶。
嗯，希望旅途順利。
是啊！
可別碰上劫機的。
哦，你想得太多了。
