零起点美语-Captain's Report

Captain's Report

机长广播
After takeoff, Kathy and Evan are reading magazines when the pilot makes an announcement.
C:Good evening, everyone. This is your captain speaking. I'm Captain Rogers, and my crew and I will be piloting this 747 aircraft from New York to Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
K:I can't believe we're on our way!
E:Shh!
C:We're presently at an altitude of 28,000 feet ascending to our cruising altitude of 35,000 feet. The weather looks pretty good over the Atlantic, but we may experience some turbulence over the British Isles.
K:Uh-oh. I hate choppy air!
E:Shh!
C:You may have noticed that I turned off the "fasten seat belt" sign a few moments ago. If you like, you may get up and move about the cabin. However, the crew and I advise you to keep that seat belt fastened in case of turbulence. We keep ours fastened, and we hope you will, too.
K:That makes sense, doesn't it?
E:Shh!
C:After we reach our cruising altitude, I'll give you the weather report for Amsterdam. Until then, sit back and relax and enjoy our famous KLM service. Thank you and out.
起飞后，凯西和艾凡正在阅读杂志时听到飞机驾驶对大家广播。
机长：各位晚安。这是机长报告，我是罗杰斯机长，我和本班机全体服务人员将驾驶这班七四七客机从纽约飞往荷兰阿姆斯特丹。
凯西：真不敢相信我们已经上路了！
艾凡：嘘！
机长：我们现在的高度是两万八千呎，正往三万五千呎的巡航高度爬升。大西洋上空的天气看起来相当不错，但是我们在经过不列颠群岛上空时可能会遇上乱流。
凯西：糟了。我讨厌不稳定的气流！
艾凡：嘘！
机长：诸位可能已注意到我在几分钟前关掉了『系好安全带』的指示灯。如果诸位愿意的话，可以起身在机舱内走动。不过，我和全体机员都希望诸位就座时系好安全带以免突然遇到乱流。我们自己随时系着安全带，希望诸位也能这样做。
凯西：很有道理，不是吗？
艾凡：嘘！
机长：在我们攀升至巡航高度时，我会向诸位报告阿姆斯特丹的天气状况。在这之前，请坐好，放松自己享受我们著名的荷兰皇家航空公司的服务。播报完毕，谢谢。
