Turn Off Your Cell Phone 关掉你的手机

Turn Off Your Cell Phone 关掉你的手机

We went to the movie the other night. I sat in an aisle¹ seat as I usually do, because it feels a little roomier. Just as the feature was about to start, a blonde from the center of the row got up and started walking her way out.  "Excuse me, sorry, oops, excuse me, pardon me, gotta hurry, oops, excuse me."  By the time she got to me, I was trying to look around her and I was feeling a little impatient², so I said, "Couldn't you have done this a little earlier"? "No!!" she said in a loud whisper. "The 'Turn Off Your Cell Phone, Please' message just flashed up on the screen and mine is out in the car."

那天晚上我们去看电影，和往常一样我坐在走廊的座位上，因为我觉得这里更宽敞。就在即将放映的时候，坐在中间位置的一位女士站起来往外走。“劳驾，噢不好意思，请原谅，噢。”她走到我旁边的时候，我试图绕过她看后面的屏幕。我有点不耐烦：“你就不能早点出去吗？”“不能！”她大声说，“屏幕上打出了‘请关掉手机’，而我的在车里。”
