I: Isaac  G: Gina

Isaac just arrived at the airport and found out his flight was canceled. He asks help from Gina, who is one of the airline’s ground staff members.

I: Excuse me, I just received notice that my flight has been canceled due to the typhoon. Can you tell me what’s going on?

G: I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but due to the typhoon, several flights have been canceled for safety reasons. 

I: Oh, no. Do you know how long the typhoon will last?

G: It’s hard to say for sure, but they’re expecting heavy rain and strong winds for the next 24 hours.

I: I see. Is there any chance I can get on a flight tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?

艾薩克: 不好意思,我剛剛收到通知,我的班機因颱風被取消了。妳能告訴我發生了什麼事嗎?

吉 娜: 造成您的不便,我深表歉意,由於受颱風的影響,出於安全考量,多架班機被取消了。

艾薩克: 哦,不。妳知道颱風會持續多久嗎?

吉 娜: 這很難確定,但預計未來二十四小時會有強風豪雨。

艾薩克: 我明白了。我有機會搭乘明天或後天的班機嗎?
