机上被困二十八小时:rumors start flying

一群人被闷在飞机上整整二十八小时,不能下机、电话大多打不通,一句 Everyone knew every inch of that plane(那架飞机的每一寸大家都摸熟了)说尽无聊,接着 Because you're freaking out, and it is freaking me out(因为你在发作,把我也搞发作了)把机舱里的崩溃演活了。想学抱怨、抓狂和报平安的说法,这段很有画面。

发生了什么

一架架航班改降甘德,乘客却被困在机上整整二十八小时:不能下机、座位电话打不通、手机电池也没电,We had no way to get information(我们没法打听到任何消息),只剩 Everyone knew every inch of that plane(那架飞机的每一寸大家都摸熟了)。机上一半人不会说英语,Even if we knew what was happening, we don't speak their language(就算我们知道发生了什么,也不会说他们的语言);机长又不敢多说,于是 rumors start flying(谣言四起),从坠机一路传成第三次世界大战。有人彻底 freaking out(抓狂),也有一对同名凯文的情侣在旁边拌嘴:We're both named Kevin(我俩都叫凯文)。想学被困、慌乱、谣言和报平安的说法,这段又好笑又真实。

关于这一章的问题

rumors start flying 是什么意思?

意思是「谣言四起」,形容消息不明时各种传言一下子传开。戏里乘客不知道发生了什么,传言就越传越离谱。

「安然无恙」英语怎么说?

safe and sound,报平安的常用说法,等于「平安无事、安然无恙」。也可以说 I arrived safe and sound。

every inch of 怎么用?

意思是「……的每一寸、整个……的每个角落」,后面接具体的东西,比如 every inch of the plane 就是「飞机的每一寸」。

freaking out 是什么语气?

意思是「吓坏了、抓狂」,口语常用,表示情绪突然失控、特别慌,比 worried 更强烈。

「整整一天」英语怎么说?

an entire day,强调完整的一整天。戏里说在飞机上待了超过一整天,就是 over an entire day。
