Another Engine Is Down 又一个引擎出了故障
A Boeing 747 was flying in the night sky of the Pacific Ocean. The captain got on the loud speaker, "Travellers, one of our engines was out of order, therefore we'll arrive in Tokyo an hour late." After a short while, the trumpet(喇叭) rang out again,"Everybody, the second one of our four engines went wrong, we will reach Tokyo late three hours as a result." At this time, the passengers started disturbance. Someone said, "In case another engine is down again, we'll be up here all night." Moreover, a chap(小伙子,家伙) got to shouting unendurably:" I won't choose to take your awful airplane any longer, let me get off quickly." 一架波音747飞行在太平洋的夜空,喇叭里传来机长的声音:“旅客们,我们的一个引擎坏了,因此我们将晚到达东京一个小时。” 过了一会儿,喇叭再次响起:“诸位,我们四个引擎中又坏了一个引擎,为此我们将晚到三个小时。”这时,乘客开始骚动。有人说:“万一再坏一个,我们得呆在天上一整夜了。” 还有已经受不了的,大叫:“我再也不坐你们的破飞机了,快让我下去。” |
