The First Gliding Lesson

1--What was your first gliding lesson like?
2--If was very interesting.
1--How did you start?
2--Well, the instructor showed me the controls.
1--What happened next?
2--The instructor showed me how to use them. Then
   we went for a short flight.
1--Were you nervous when you took over the
   controls for the first time?
2--Yes, very. My hands were trembling.
1--Did you have any moments of panic?
2--Yes, when the glider was rushing towards the
   ground and I suddenly forgot what to do.
1--That must have been frightening.

===================================
注解:

1)glide:滑翔。glider:滑翔机
2)show me the controls:show作“告知”或(通过示范)
“教”解。controls(多用复数):操纵装置。
3)take over the controls:take over作“接过来”解。
这里指学员从教练手中接过操纵器,自行驾驶。
4)moments of panic:感到惊慌、恐惧的时刻。

===================================
译文:

1--你第一节滑翔课上得怎么样啊?
2--非常有意思。
1--你是怎么开始的?
2--哦,教员告诉我哪些是操纵器。
1--然后呢?
2--教员给我示范如何使用这些操纵器。接着我们就飞了
一小段距离。
1--当你第一次进行操纵的时候,你紧张不紧张?
2--非常紧张。我的双手都哆嗦了。
1--你有感到惊慌失措的时候吗?
2--有。当滑翔机朝地面俯冲去的时候,我简直不知所措了。
1--那一定让人胆战心惊。
