Between my first and second ski lessons, I was practicing on the beginner's slope at Mammoth Mountain in Californi a. I began to pick up speed, and suddenly I realized I had forgotten how to stop. That same moment, I saw a young couple standing motionless directly in my path.″Look out! Get out of myway!″ I yelled. They did not heed my warning, and a moment later the three of us were up to our ears in snow. As we were untangling poles and recovering skis, I apologized, explaining that I did not know how to stop.″That's okay, madam,″ said the young man.″We didn't know how tomove.″
滑雪课
我刚开始上滑雪课时,在加利福尼亚猛犸山的初学者坡道上练习。我逐渐开始加速,但我突然意识到我忘了该怎么停下来。就在这时,我看到一对年轻夫妇一动不动地站在我的滑道上。 当心!让开! 我喊道。
他们根本没听到我的警告。顷刻之间,我们3人都被埋在了雪里。我们抽出扭在一起的滑雪杆,找回滑雪板。我连忙道歉,解释说我不知道如何才能停下来。
没关系,女士, 那名男子说 我们不知道怎样才能滑动。
