I was nearly asleep in my seat when I heard this announcement:
當我聽到廣播通知時,我快在座位上睡著了:
“Folks, this is the captain speaking from the cockpit. We are experiencing a lot of turbulence and I’m turning on the fasten seatbelt sign. Please remain in your seats.”
“各位,現在是駕駛艙里機長講話。我們正在經歷很大的顛簸,我正在打開安全帶指示燈。請各位在座位上做好。”
I didn’t think anything of it until a few minutes later when I heard this announcement:
當時我什么也沒想,直到幾分鐘后我聽到這個通知:
“This is your captain speaking again. Due to extreme weather conditions, we may need to make an emergency landing. The cabin crew will review the emergency procedures, and give you instructions on how to use the floatation devices and the oxygen masks. Please stay calm.”
“機長再次廣播。由于極端天氣,我們可能需要緊急迫降。機組人員將檢查應急程序,并指導各位乘客如何使用漂浮裝置和氧氣面罩。請大家不要慌亂。”
這會兒我開始抓狂了。如果我們迫降怎么辦?如果我們墜入海洋怎么辦?誰會來這上不著天、下不著地的地方來營救我們?
Then, I heard this announcement:
就在這時,我又聽到了廣播通知:
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is the captain again. It seems that we had an instrument malfunction, and no emergency landing will be necessary. Sorry to alarm you, and please go back to sleep.”
“女士們,先生們,還是機長廣播。可能是我們的儀器出現了故障,沒有必要緊急著陸。對不起,打擾各位了,請大家繼續(xù)休息吧。”
Go back to sleep?! Is he kidding? How can anyone sleep after that?! I’m still watching my life flash before my eyes!
繼續(xù)休息?!他是在開玩笑嗎?這下子誰還能睡得著?我現在仍然感覺自己命懸一線呢!
