Attendant: Where are you flying to today?

Stephanie: Wow, Okay. Great!
Attendant: And ④what luggage are you checking in today?
Stephanie: I’ll check this one, thanks. ⑤I’ll take this one on board with me.
Attendant: ⑥Just pop it up here. Yes, that’s great. Now, you have a two-hour wait in Singapore and then the connecting flight will take you on to Shanghai.

Attendant: New York to Singapore: departs at 11:30AM, arrives at 11:30PM the same day. Singapore to Shanghai: departs 1:30AM arrives 6:30AM. It’s a long trip.

Attendant: You sure will. Okay, I’m just printing your boarding pass now. There you go. You are in seat 2B.
Stephanie: Great. Thanks for your help. Oh, which gate is that from?
Attendant: It’s A23. ⑦Head down to your left. Have a safe flight.

服务员:好的。我要看一下您的机票和护照。

服务员:好的,斯蒂芬妮,事实上我们的电脑出了点小问题,导致我们把您的座位重复安排了。但是,我刚刚纠正了,我们会把您免费调到头等舱。
斯蒂芬妮:哇,好的。太好了!
服务员:您今天有行李要托运吗?
斯蒂芬妮:就这一个,谢谢。另一个我想随身携带。
服务员:那放在这儿就好了。是的,好了。现在,您要在新加坡停留两个小时,然后转机飞往上海。
斯蒂芬妮:你能告诉我这些航班的出发和到达时间吗?
服务员:从纽约到新加坡的航班是上午11点半出发,当天晚上11点半到达。从新加坡到上海的是凌晨1点半出发,早上6点半到达。这是一趟长途旅行。
斯蒂芬妮:是的。我希望能在飞机上睡一下。回去后我需要几天才能恢复过来。
服务员:是啊。好的,我正在打印您的登机牌。给您,您的座位是2B。
斯蒂芬妮:好的。谢谢你。哦,我从哪个登机口登机啊?
服务员:A23。朝您的左边走。祝您旅途平安。
