This is your captain speaking. On behalf of my crew①I’d like to welcome you aboard British Airways flight 602 from New York to London. We are currently②flying at a height of 35，000 feet midway across the Atlantic. If you look out of the windows on the starboard③side of the aircraft， you will observe that both the starboard engines are on fire. If you look out of the windows on the port side， you will observe that the port wing has fallen off. If you look down towards the Atlantic Ocean， you will see a little yellow life raft④with three people in it to waving at you. That’s me， the copilot， and one of the air stewardesses. This is a recording.
① crewn. （飞机或宇宙飞船的）全体机员，空勤人员
② currentlyadv. 现在
③ starboardadj. 右舷的
④ raftn. （救生用）橡皮艇
一段录音
这是你们机长的声音。请允许我代表全体工作人员，欢迎你们乘坐英国航空公司602号航班从纽约飞往伦敦。我们此时在大西洋上空35，000英尺的高度。如果你从飞机的右边向窗外看去，你将会发现右侧的两个引擎都已经起火。如果你从左边往外看，你就会看到那边的机翼已经脱落了。如果你俯视下面的大西洋，那么你会看到一艘黄色的救生筏，上面有三个人正在朝你挥手。那是我、副驾驶员还有我们的一名女乘务员。这是一段录音。
