K: Kyle E: Eric
Kyle just returned from his trip to Turkey.
E: Hey, Kyle. How was your trip to Turkey? Judging from your posts, it looked like you had an amazing time.
K: I sure did. But actually, I was struggling with jet lag back then.
E: That’s because traveling several time zones to the east causes worse jet lag than flying to the west.
K: Totally. During the day in Turkey, all I wanted to do was sleep. And at night, my mind was racing.
E: You should’ve slept on the plane. That’s supposed to help.
凱爾剛從土耳其之旅回來。
艾瑞克: 嘿,凱爾。你的土耳其之旅怎麼樣?從你的貼文看來,你玩得很開心。
凱 爾: 確實很開心。但實際上,當時的時差讓我難受死了。
艾瑞克: 那是因為向東跨越好幾個時區所導致的時差比向西飛行更嚴重。
凱 爾: 完全沒錯。在土耳其時,白天我只想睡覺。到了晚上,我的思緒轉個不停。
艾瑞克: 你應該在飛機上睡覺的。那應該會有幫助。
