2-- yes, everything is fine.
1-- what took so long? I thought your flight was supposed to arrive 3 hours ago!
2-- didn't they announce that our flight was delayed?
1-- I didn't hear anything about a delay. I thought everything was running on time. What happened?
2-- we boarded the plane on time, but then we were held up for almost an hour due to a maintenance problem.
1-- then what? Your plane was three hours late!
2-- we finally took off, but about 30 minutes later, the captain came on the loudspeaker to warn us that there would be some bad turbulence for most of the flight.
1-- turbulence is pretty normal, isn't it?
2-- yes, but this was the worst turbulence I'd ever experienced in my life! Everyone started getting sick. The flight attendants had to stay in their seats. The captain decided to land early.
1-- so where did you land?
2-- we landed in Southamoton and waited an hour for the storms to pass and then took off again.
1-- that sounds like a nightmare!
2-- it wasn't too bad. At lease I'm alive.
1-- have you had anything to eat?
2-- I managed to get a sandwich from a flight attendant. How about you?
1-- I had a few coffees while I was waiting. Let's get out of here!

譯文:
1--一切都正常吧?
2--是的,都還不錯(cuò).
1--怎么花了這么長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間?你的班機(jī)三小時(shí)之前就該到了.
2--沒有廣播通知我們的班機(jī)晚點(diǎn)了嗎?
1--我沒有聽到任何關(guān)于晚點(diǎn)的廣播.我以為都會(huì)正點(diǎn)到達(dá)呢.出什么事了?
2--我們是準(zhǔn)時(shí)登記的,但是后來由于設(shè)備維修,我們整整耽誤了將近一個(gè)鐘頭.
1--那后來又出什么事了呢?你們可是晚點(diǎn)了三個(gè)鐘頭呢!
2--后來我們好不容易起飛了,可是半個(gè)小時(shí)以后,機(jī)長(zhǎng)廣播說我們這次航程將會(huì)遇到很厲害的氣流.
1--遇到氣流很平常嘛,對(duì)吧.
2--是的,可是這次是我這輩子從未遇到過的最強(qiáng)的氣流!所有人都開始暈機(jī).空乘人員也不得不在他們的位子上坐好.機(jī)長(zhǎng)決定提前降落.
1--那你們?cè)谀膬褐懥?
我們降落在南安普頓,在地面上等了一個(gè)小時(shí),等暴風(fēng)雪的氣流過去之后才再次起飛.
1--聽上去簡(jiǎn)直是場(chǎng)噩夢(mèng).
2--也不是太糟糕.至少我還活著?
1--你吃過飯了沒?
2--空姐給我送過一個(gè)三明治.你呢?
1--等你的時(shí)候我喝了一點(diǎn)咖啡.咱們離開這兒吧.
