机场难忘的一早

字幕原文

The first time I came to the United States, 我第一次来美国的时候，

I had to catch a flight from California to Minnesota. 我需要从加州搭飞机去明尼苏达。

I arrived at the airport two hours early, got my boarding pass, 我提前两小时到达机场，拿到了登机牌，

passed through security, and sat down to wait. 过了安检，然后坐下来等。

After a while, I went to the restroom, taking my bag with me 过了一会儿，我带着包去了洗手间，

— ——

all my documents were inside. 我所有的证件都在里面。

I set it down in front of the stall door. 我把它放在隔间门前。

But when I opened that door, my bag was gone. 但当我打开那扇门时，我的包不见了。

I was frantic. 我心急如焚。

Tears ran down my face as I ran everywhere, searching. 我泪流满面地到处跑着找。

An airport officer stopped me. 一位机场工作人员拦住了我。

"What happened? “发生什么事了？”

How can I help?" “我能帮你什么忙？”

I told him about my bag. 我告诉了他我的包不见了。

He brought me to another officer — who had it! 他把我带到另一位工作人员那里——我的包就在他手里！

I grabbed it and ran to the gate, reaching the plane just before the door closed. 我抓起包就跑向登机口，在舱门关闭前一刻赶上了飞机。

I will never forget that morning. 我永远不会忘记那个早上。

And I have never again let my bag out of my sight. 从那以后，我再也没有让我的包离开过我的视线。
