机场很忙。人很多,声音很大。你的飞机是八点半。时间不多了!现在是七点。登机口在哪里?你需要问路吗?今天,你将学会如何在机场找到你的登机口,顺利登机。

我今天要去上海。早上六点就起床了。现在我在机场。机场很大,人也很多。我的航班是CA188,八点半起飞。我已经办理了值机,也托运了行李。我的登机牌在我手里。上面写着我的登机口是B12。我看看周围,B12在哪里呢?我需要找到登机口。时间快到了。我有点紧张。我沿着指示牌走,但是有很多指示牌。左边是A区,右边是C区。B区在哪里?我看到一个人站在问讯处。她看起来很友好。也许她可以帮助我。

Let's take a moment to look at some useful words from our story.

  • 机场 (jīchǎng) — airport, 这是北京机场。
  • 航班 (hángbān) — flight, 我的航班是CA188。
  • 办理值机 (bànlǐ zhíjī) — to check in, 我已经办理了值机。
  • 托运 (tuōyùn) — to check luggage, 我需要托运行李。
  • 登机牌 (dēngjīpái) — boarding pass, 请给我你的登机牌。
  • 登机口 (dēngjīkǒu) — boarding gate, 登机口是B12。, 现在,我们回到故事中,看看她是否找到了登机口。

我走到问讯处,礼貌地问她,'请问,B12登机口在哪里?' 她笑了笑,说:'B12登机口在C区,你需要坐机场巴士。' 机场巴士?我之前没有看到这个信息。她指了指方向:'去C区坐摆渡车,很快就到了。' 我感谢她,然后快速走向C区。我看到很多旅客都在等摆渡车。巴士来了,我顺利上车。很快,我就到了B12登机口。我的航班正在登机。我很庆幸我提前来了机场。现在,我可以放松一下,准备登机了。下次我一定要更早出门。

现在,让我们一起练习一些重要的句子。

  • 我今天要去上海。— I am going to Shanghai today.
  • 我的航班是CA188。— My flight is CA188.
  • 我已经办理了值机。— I have already checked in.
  • 我的登机口是B12。— My boarding gate is B12.
  • 请问,B12登机口在哪里?— Excuse me, where is gate B12?
  • 我的航班正在登机。— My flight is boarding., 你做得很好!继续努力,你的中文会越来越棒。
