核心问题
For a few hours, you settle back in a deep armchair to enjoy the flight. The real escapist can watch a free film show and sip champagne on some services. (New Concept English, Book 3,
L.44)
[原译]你可以靠在深深的扶手椅内平心静气,享受几个小时飞行。真正不想享受飞行的人可以看看免费电影,或者一边呷着香槟酒,一边办理公务。(合肥工大版,p.95) on some services 是指“一边办理公务”吗?
词典解答
service 除作“服务”解之外,还可作“交通设施”解,如 train service, bus service, railway service。在上面的句子里 services 特指班机、航线(airline service)。on some services 是指:“在某些航线上”“在某些班机上”。
[试译]……在某些班机上，真正会消遣的人可以看看免费电影，品尝品尝香槟酒。
