Come from Away · 2021 — 第 7 / 22 章 · 2'50" · B1

旅客摸黑进入机场:left over from

旅客被要求只带随身行李下机,走进一片漆黑的机场,谁都不敢确定接下来会怎样,一句 no one has any idea where they're taking us(没人知道他们要把我们带去哪儿)说出所有人的不安。他们看到机场像 left over from(遗留下来)冷战年代。想学描写陌生、恐惧和入境问话的英语,这段很到位。

发生了什么

旅客被要求只带随身行李下机,走进漆黑的机场:窗外是 darkness and trees(黑暗和树木),机场像 something left over from the Cold War(冷战遗留下来的东西),车灯一直对准他们。士兵逐一问 Citizenship(国籍)、Purpose of your trip(此行目的)、Destination(目的地),有人被单独带走,其他人则排队等付费电话,工作人员干脆把电话挂上 out of order(停用)的标志,好把大家赶上巴士。没人知道要被送去哪儿,只能被分送到甘德、甘博、阿普尔顿等地。想学入境盘问、描写黑暗与不安的英语,这段很真实。
