Lesson 13 The Day I've Been Having
第13课 我的一天
You wouldn't believe the day I've been having. First of all, there was some kind of emergency at LAX, so my initial1 flight was delayed by more than an hour and a half on the tarmac.
你不会相信我这一天。首先,洛杉矶国际机场有紧急情况,所以我的第一次航班在停机坪上延误了一个半小时。
So, by the time I got here to O'Hare, my connecting flight was already preparing to take off. Suffice2 to say, I missed my flight out of Chicago and had to check in again for a new boarding pass.
然后,当我到达奥黑尔时,我的转机已经准备起飞了。也就是说,我错过了离开芝加哥的航班,不得不再次办理登机手续,领取新的登机牌。
And just my luck, all of the flights today are overbooked except for a red-eye that will put me in London at 4 a.m. tomorrow, just three hours before I'm supposed to do my presentation.
幸运的是,今天所有的航班都超额预定了,除了明天凌晨4点的红眼航班,也就是我要做报告的前三个小时。
Oh well. At least they bumped3 me up to executive4 class because the economy and business were already full. At least now I can get some shut eye during the flight.
哦,好吧。至少他们把我提升到了公事舱,因为经济舱和商务舱已经客满。至少现在我可以在飞行中休息一下了。
