飞机餐很难吃?难以下咽?别再抱怨了!由于日益上涨的燃油价格,航空公司不得不削减飞机上几乎不必要的装备来减轻机重,降低油耗。大体积的零食、垃圾桶甚至飞机上的座位都在被精简之列。或许他们应该奖励那些正在节食的乘客,因为根据美国疾病预防控制中心的资料显示,美国人的平均体重自19世纪60年代以来增加了24磅。 Airplane meal is hard to eat? Hard to swallow? Stop complaining! Due to rising fuel prices, airlines have to cut almost unnecessary aircraft equipment to reduce machine weight and fuel consumption. Large volumes of snacks, trash cans and even seats on the aircraft are being streamlined. Perhaps they should reward those who are on a diet, as according to the CDC, the average American’s weight has increased by 24 pounds since the 1860s.
