英語笑話:飛機(jī)上的談話
I noticed one of my passengers in the coach section of the airplane
dialing her cell phone.
"Excuse me. That can't be on during the flight," I reminded her.
"Besides, we're over the ocean-you won't get a signal out here."
"That's okay," she said.
"I'm just calling my daughter. She's sitting up in first class."
在飛往夏威夷的途中，我注意到飛機(jī)普通艙里的一位乘客正在撥打手機(jī)。
"對不起。飛行途中是不可以接打手機(jī)的。"我提醒她道。
"此外，我們現(xiàn)在正處于大洋上空。您的手機(jī)是不能接收到信號的。"
"沒關(guān)系，"她回答道。
"我只是在給我的女兒打電話。她就在飛機(jī)的頭等艙里。"
逐句對照
En route to Hawaii,
I noticed one of my passengers in the coach section of the airplane
dialing her cell phone.
"Excuse me. That can't be on during the flight," I reminded her.
"Besides, we're over the ocean-you won't get a signal out here."
"That's okay," she said.
"I'm just calling my daughter. She's sitting up in first class."
多學(xué)一點(diǎn)
en route to "在去...的途中"
相當(dāng)于on the way to
例如：They will stop at Paris en route from London to Rome.
他們在從倫敦往羅馬的途中將在巴黎停留。
coach section 是飛機(jī)的"普通艙"
first class是飛機(jī)"一等艙，頭等艙"
經(jīng)濟(jì)艙即 "economy class"
"remind somebody to do something"和"remind somebody of something"
我們可以說：You should remind him to call me.
你讓他記著給我打個電話啊。
又比如：I reminded Gerald for his promise.
我提醒吉羅德不要忘記他許下的諾言。
