Joy: About 12:00 there. Come at 12:30 so you do not wait outside.

肯:好。我開車去。別在飛機上買薯條或巧克力,很難吃。
Boats leave at 9:00, 13:00 and 16:00 · About ninety minutes
Our group leader is able to answer any question, and the view is fantastic. Food is sold on board, but you may bring your own. Please do not feed the birds; they follow the boat for days and bother the next group.
If the sea is not calm, only the 13:00 boat will sail. We decide at 11:00 and put a note on the door. Money is given back at once if we do not sail; there is no need to ask.
船班 9:00、13:00、16:00 · 航程約九十分鐘
我們的帶隊人員能回答任何問題,風景非常棒。船上有販售食物,也可以自備。請勿餵食鳥類,牠們會跟著船好幾天,打擾下一批乘客。
若海象不佳,只開 13:00 那一班。我們在 11:00 決定並在門上張貼公告。若未開航將立即退費,不需要另外申請。
Dear Sir,
I am flying with your company from Tainan to Hong Kong on the 7th of next month, flight AS 216. I have two questions.
First, my mother is 82 and cannot walk from the gate to the aircraft. Your page says help is possible but does not say how to ask for it. Must I call, or can it be done when we arrive?
Second, we would like two seats together in the same row, near the front. I am willing to pay for this if there is a charge, but I would rather know the amount before the day.
Thank you for your help. Wu Ping
敬啟者:
我下個月七日將搭乘貴公司 AS 216 班機從台南飛往香港。我有兩個問題。
第一,我母親八十二歲,無法從登機門走到飛機。貴網頁說可以提供協助,卻沒有說明如何申請。我必須打電話,還是到現場再辦理?
第二,我們希望兩個座位在同一排、靠近前方。如果需要付費我願意付,但希望能在當天之前先知道金額。
感謝您的協助。吳萍
We think of the sea as a place for holidays. For most of the world it is a road, and almost everything we own has travelled on it.
A single ship may carry twenty thousand boxes, and one box may hold every chair in your school. Because the cost for each box is so low, a shirt can be made on one side of the world and sold on the other for less than the price of a meal.
This is why an event far away can empty a shelf near you. When one narrow sea road closed for six days a few years ago, shops in dozens of countries ran short within a month. The sea is quiet, but it is not far from your door.
我們把海想成度假的地方。但對世界上多數地區來說,它是一條道路,而我們擁有的幾乎每一樣東西都曾在上面走過。
一艘船可能載著兩萬個貨櫃,而一個貨櫃可能裝得下你學校裡所有的椅子。因為每個貨櫃的成本極低,一件襯衫可以在世界的一端製造,在另一端以不到一頓飯的價格賣出。
這就是為什麼遠方發生的一件事,會讓你附近的貨架空掉。幾年前有一條狹窄的海上通道封閉了六天,幾十個國家的商店在一個月內就開始缺貨。海洋很安靜,但它離你家門口並不遠。
