(单词翻译)

 A:     Next please! Hello sir, may I see your passport
        please?

 B:    Yes, here you go.

 A:    Will you be checking any bags.

 B:    Yes, I’d like to check three pieces.

 A:     I’m sorry, sir. Airline policy allows only two pieces
       of  checked  luggage, at  twenty  kilograms each,
        plus one piece of carry-on luggage. I will have
       to charge you extra for the additional1 suitcase.

 B:    What? Why! I am taking an intercontinental flight!
       I’m flying sixteen thousand kms! How am I sup-
       posed2 to only take two, twenty kilo bags? That’s
       absurd3!
 A:     I am sorry, sir, there’s nothing I can do. You
       cannot board the flight with that large bag either.
       Carry-on bags must fit in the over-head compart-
        ment or under your seat. That bag is clearly too
        big.

 B:     Now I see.  You charge next to nothing for an in-
       ternational ticket,  but when it comes to charging
       for any other small thing, you charge an arm and
       a leg! So tell me, miss, how much will I have to
        pay for all of this.

 A:     Let’s see... six hundred and twenty-five US dol-
        lars.

 B:    That’s more than my round-trip ticket!
