At The Airport

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

下一位！先生您好，请出示您的护照。

Yes, here you go.

好的，给您。

Will you be checking any bags.

您有行李要托运吗？

Yes, I’d like to check three pieces.

是的，我要托运三件行李。

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 additional suitcase.

对不起，先生。航空公司规定只能托运两件行李，每件20公斤，外加一件随身行李。多出来的这件行李我需要向您收取额外费用。

What? Why! I am taking an intercontinental flight! I’m flying sixteen thousand kms! How am I supposed to only take two, twenty kilo bags? That’s absurd!

什么？为什么！我坐的是洲际航班！我要飞一万六千公里！你怎么能让我只带两个20公斤的包？太荒谬了！

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 compartment or under your seat. That bag is clearly too big.

对不起，先生，我也没有办法。您也不能带着那个大包登机。随身行李必须能放在头顶行李架或座位下面。您的包明显太大了。

Now I see. You charge next to nothing for an international 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.

我明白了。国际机票你们收费几乎不赚钱，但一涉及到其他小东西，你们就漫天要价！那么小姐，请告诉我，这些总共要付多少钱？

Let’s see... six hundred and twenty-five US dollars.

让我看看……625美元。

That’s more than my round-trip ticket!

这比我的往返机票还贵！
