Passengers like me are fed up with the airline industry. First, they charged us more for checking a bag while discontinuing free meals during flights. That was bad enough. To add fuel to the fire, they're talking about making us tag our own luggage, too. That's why consumer complaints have increased so dramatically!
像我这样的飞机乘客实在是受够航空公司了。首先，它们给托运行李费涨价，还取消了免费飞机餐。然后它们又打算让旅客自己动手做行李签，这不是蹬鼻子上脸么！这就是为什么消费者投诉增加了这么多！
It's not surprising that Ellen broke up with Tom. At the party last weekend, she overheard him criticizing her for not watching her weight. The situation got worse when she later caught him exchanging phone numbers with one of her girlfriends. No doubt, that added fuel to fire. By the next morning, she had moved out of his apartment.
艾伦和汤姆分手一点都不让人吃惊。上个周末在派对上，艾伦无意间听见汤姆跟别人抱怨，觉得艾伦太胖，不注意体重。更糟的是，艾伦后来又发现汤姆和自己的一个女友交换电话号码。毫无疑问，这么做可是火上浇油。派对后那天的一大早，艾伦就搬出了汤姆的公寓。
