坐飛機旅行 Traveling by Plane

Nowadays, people prefer to travel byair. This is because air travel has some advantages. First of all, airplane,the miracle created by man, is the fastest means of transport. It takes theleast time for one to travel by air from one place to another. Besides,traveling by air is convenient and comfortable. Friendly air hostesses areaffectionate and considerate. They look after passengers all the way to theirdestinations. In addition, on long distance flights there are films and musicfor people to entertain themselves.

現在，人們喜歡坐飛機去旅遊。這是因爲坐飛機旅遊有一些優點。首先，飛機是人類發明的奇蹟，是最快的交通方式。坐飛機從一個地方到另一個地方花的時間最少。此外，坐飛機旅遊方便舒適。友好的空姐深情體貼。她們一路上都照顧乘客。另外，長途飛行有電影和音樂給人們自娛自樂。

As a popular saying goes,"Everything has two sides." The same is true of air travel. It hassome disadvantages, too. For one thing, air travel is expensive. The averageChinese are not rich enough to afford expensive air fares. So they prefer totake trains, which save a lot of money. For another, although passengers areassured of their safety, they are still worried about it during the journeybecause flying always involves more or less risk.

正如一句流行的話說的：“任何事物都有兩面性。”航空旅遊也一樣，它也有一些缺點。一方面，航空旅遊費用昂貴。一般的中國人都不是很富裕，付不起昂貴的航空費用。所以他們寧願坐火車，這樣能節省很多錢。另一方面，儘管乘客們有安全保障，他們在旅途中還是會擔心，因爲飛行或多或少總包括一些風險。

As far I am concerned, the advantagesmentioned above exceed the disadvantages. If I were given choice betweentraveling by air and by train, I would certainly prefer the former, especially the longdistance journey, because time is the most important thing I have to take intoconsideration whatever I do.

在我看來，上述優點多於缺點。如果讓我在火車和飛機之間選擇,我寧願選擇前者，特別是長途旅行，因爲不管我做什麼，時間是我應該考慮的最重要的東西。
