Only an engine
A 747 halfway across the Atlantic when the captain got on the loud speaker, "Attention, passengers. We have lost one of our engines, but we can certainly reach London with the three we have left.Unfortunately,we will arrive an hour late as a r esult."
Shortly thereafter,the passengers heard the captain's voice again, "Guess what, folks.We just lost our third engine, but please be assured we can fly with only one.We will now arrive in London three hours late."
At this point,one passenger became furious."For Pete's sake,"he shouted,"If we lose another engine,we'll be& up here all night!"
只剩一个引擎了
一架747客机正在跨过大西洋时,喇叭里传来了机长的声音:“旅客们请注意,咱们的四个引擎中有一个坏掉了。但剩余的三个引擎会把咱们带到伦敦的。仅仅咱们要因而晚到一小时 。”
过了一瞬间,旅客们又听到机长的声音:“各位,你们猜怎么啦 ?咱们刚又坏掉了第三个引擎。但请你们信任好了。只有一个引擎咱们也能飞,但要晚三个小时了。”
正在这时,一位乘客十分愤慨地说:“看在天主的份上,假如咱们再掉一个引擎,咱们就要整夜都要呆在天上了。”
