First Flight
第一次坐飛機
Mr. Johnson had never been up in an airplane before and he had read a lot about air accidents,
約翰遜先生從前未乘過飛機,他讀過許多關于飛行事故的報道。
so one day when a friend offered to take him for a ride in his own small plane,Mr. Johnson was very worried about accepting.
所以,有一天一位朋友邀請他乘自己的小飛機飛行時,約翰遜先生非常擔心,不敢接受。
Finally, however, his friend persuaded him that it was very safe, and Mr. Johnson boarded the plane.
不過,由于朋友不斷保證說飛行是很安全的,約翰遜先生終于被說服了,登上了飛機。
His friend started the engine and began to taxi onto the runway of the airport.
他的朋友啟動引擎開始在機場跑道上滑行。
Mr. Johnson had heard that the most dangerous part of a flight were the take-off and the landing,so he was extremely frightened and closed his eyes.
約翰遜先生聽說飛行中最危險的是起飛與降落,所以他嚇得緊閉雙眼。
After a minute or two he opened them again, looked out of the window of the plane, and said to his friend,
過了一兩分鐘,他睜開雙眼朝窗外望去,接著對朋友說道:
"Look at those people down there. They look as small as ants, don't they?"
“看下面那些人,他們看起來就象螞蟻一樣小,是不是?”
"Those are ants," answered his friend. "We're still on the ground."
“那些就是螞蟻,”他的朋友答道,“我們還在地面上。”
