Lesson 29 Taxi! 出租汽車 Does Captain Fawcett think any trip is too dangerous? Captain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service. The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'. This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers. The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field. Captain Fawcett's first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains. Since then, Captain Fawcett has flown passengers to many unusual places. Once he landed on the roof of a block of flats and on another occasion, he landed in a deserted car park. Captain Fawcett has just refused a strange request from a businessman. The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonely island in the Atlantic Ocean, but Captain Fawcett did not take him because the trip was too dangerous.參照譯文本.弗西特機(jī)長買了一輛不同尋常的出租汽車，并開始了一項(xiàng)新的業(yè)務(wù)。這輛“出租汽車”是一架小型瑞士飛機(jī)，叫“皮勒特斯.波特“號。這架奇妙的飛機(jī)可以載7名乘客。然而，最令人驚奇的是它可以在任何地方降落：雪地上，水面上，甚至剛耕過的田里。弗西特機(jī)長的第一名乘客是位醫(yī)生，她從伯明翰飛往威爾士山區(qū)一種偏僻的村莊。從那時(shí)開始，弗西特機(jī)長已經(jīng)載送乘客到過許多不尋常的地方。一次，她把飛機(jī)降落在了一棟公寓樓的屋頂上；尚有一次，降落在了一種廢棄的停車場上。弗西特機(jī)長剛剛回絕了一位商人的奇怪規(guī)定。這個(gè)人想要飛往大西洋上的一種孤島 - 羅卡爾島，弗西特機(jī)長之因此不送她去，是由于那段飛行太危險(xiǎn)了。 【New words and expressions】（10）1 taxi'tæksi n.出租汽車2 Pilatus Porter皮勒特斯·波特(飛機(jī)機(jī)名)3 landlænd v.著陸4 ploughplau v.耕地5 lonely'lunli a.偏僻的，人跡罕至的6 Welshwel a.威爾士的7 roofru:f n.樓頂8 blockblk n.一座大樓9 flatflæt n.公寓房10 desert'dezt v.廢棄一單詞解說：taxi   n. 出租車take a taxi to     打的去cab kæb n.出租車；(公共汽車、火車等的)司機(jī)室, 駕駛室；出租馬車(Am)by taxi      by cabtaxi stand  出租車站（美）taxi driver=cab driverland1) n.U 陸地，土地，地landsea， water     groundskyfarming land 農(nóng)業(yè)用地building land 建筑用地C 祖國（喻）mother landhome landnative 'neitiv landthe land of the dead 黃泉路by land 由陸路 by air, by sealandlord店主，房東 landlady  女店主，女房東2) v. （使）著陸The plane can land anywhere. 這架飛機(jī)能在任何地方著陸。（不及物，無賓語）The pilot was trying to land the damaged plane safely. 這個(gè)飛行員試圖使這架損壞的飛機(jī)安全著陸。（及物）land on ones feet  化險(xiǎn)為夷land in / land up 陷入We landed in a lot of trouble. 我們陷入了許多麻煩。plough  plau v. 用犁耕plow plau  (Am)plough a field/plough up a field  耕田They plough in spring. 她們在春天耕種田地。plough a lonely furrow   孤單無援地工作furrow  'f:r, 'fr n.犁溝；(臉上的)皺紋 vt.犁田,開溝plough through a dull textbook 費(fèi)力地讀一本枯燥的教科書the Plough 北斗七星  the Big Dipper (Am)lonely  adj.1) adj. 孤寂的，寂寞的 alone; unhappy because of being alone or without friendsAlthough he lives in a big family, he feels very lonely. 盡管她住在一種人們庭里，她還是覺得很孤單。I live alone but I never feel lonely. 我一種人住但是我不覺得孤單。2) adj. 指地方偏僻的，人跡罕至的of places far from inhabited places; without people; unvisitedAntarctic is the loneliest place on the earth. 南極是世界上最偏僻的地方。Antarctic  æn't:ktik 南極區(qū); 南極地方a lonely village in Africa 在非洲一種偏僻的小村莊alone adj. / adv. 獨(dú)自的（地）；單獨(dú)的（地）He lives alone.
