然后微笑著揮手讓他進(jìn)去了。
When I played with a symphony orchestra, our union reached an agreement with a major airline about which instruments we could carry on board, and which had to be shipped as luggage. A cellist was dismayed to find that his delicate, expensive wood instrument was consigned to the rougher handling and cold temperatures of the baggage hold.
He neatly solved the problem. Cello in hand, he approached the flight attendant at the gate and asked, "May I bring my clarinet on board?" Scanning her list, she replied, "Clarinets are okay. Have a good trip," and, smiling, waved him on.
我在一個(gè)交響樂團(tuán)演奏時(shí)，我們樂團(tuán)與一家大航空公司達(dá)成協(xié)議，哪些樂器可以帶上飛機(jī)，哪些樂器要作為行李托運(yùn)。一個(gè)大提琴手驚愕地發(fā)現(xiàn)他那精致、昂貴的木質(zhì)樂器竟要托運(yùn)，經(jīng)受行李艙內(nèi)的低溫以及野蠻的裝缷。
他干凈利落地解決了這個(gè)問題。他手里拿著大提琴，走到門口的空中小姐跟前，問道：“我可以將我單簧管帶上飛機(jī)嗎？”她檢視了一下單子，答道，“單簧管可以。祝你旅途愉快。”然后微笑著揮手讓他進(jìn)去了。
