To take (something) on board 听取意见/认真考虑 Li: 大家好，欢迎收听《地道英语》现在我和 Rob 就在机场等飞机。So Rob, here we are, about to fly off on a holiday of a lifetime. Rob: Hmm, but I dont think youll be flying anywhere with those things in your hand-luggage. Li: Why? Whats wrong with this giant bottle of suntan cream - it was cheaper than buying a small one. Rob: Maybe, but you cant take that on board - its more than 100 millilitres - you wont get through security. Li: Oh, I cant take that on board - 是啊，超过一百毫升液体不能袋带上飞机。 Rob: And Li, what do you need that penknife for?! Li: In case I need to peel an apple? Maybe? Rob: Li! You cant take that on board either! Li: Oh, 水果刀也不能带上飞机。 Rob: Honestly Li, dont you ever read the notices? Look, it says here, no sharp objects and no large bottles of liquid. I really think you need to do some preparation before you fly. Li: 上飞机前要按照规定做好准备。Oh OK, Ill take that on board. Rob: Dont be stupid, you cant actually take preparation on board. Its only objects... things... that you take on board a plane, or a bus... or even a train. |
