第一次到机场
张伟第一次坐飞机，所以他很早就到了机场。他的朋友李娜在门口等他，因为李娜经常旅行。张伟拿着他的护照和签证，还有一个大行李箱。李娜说：“我们先去找到你的航班信息。”他们一起走进了很大的机场。
机场里有很多人，张伟觉得有点紧张。他看到了一个很大的屏幕，上面写着很多航班信息。李娜指着屏幕说：“看，你的航班是CA1234，去北京的。”张伟很高兴找到了他的航班。然后，他听到了广播里的飞机起飞通知。
虽然张伟是第一次坐飞机，但是他很兴奋。李娜告诉他：“你需要先去办理登机手续，拿到登机牌。”张伟问：“我的大行李箱怎么办？”李娜回答：“大行李箱需要托运，小包可以带上飞机。”张伟明白了。
他们走向办理登机手续的地方。张伟看到了很多人在排队。李娜说：“别担心，我们有时间。”张伟看着他的护照和机票，心里想着他的第一次飞行。机场的广播一直在响，提醒旅客注意时间。张伟觉得机场真是一个有趣的地方。

First Time at the Airport
It was Zhang Wei’s first time flying, so he arrived at the airport very early. His friend Li Na was waiting for him at the entrance because Li Na travels often. Zhang Wei was holding his passport and visa, along with a large suitcase. Li Na said, ‘First, let’s find your flight information.’ They walked together into the very large airport.
There were many people inside the airport, and Zhang Wei felt a little nervous. He saw a large screen displaying a lot of flight information. Li Na pointed at the screen and said, ‘Look, your flight is CA1234 to Beijing.’ Zhang Wei was happy to have found his flight. Then, he heard the announcement for a plane’s departure over the broadcast system.
Although it was Zhang Wei’s first time flying, he was very excited. Li Na told him, ‘You need to go check in first to get your boarding pass.’ Zhang Wei asked, ‘What about my large suitcase?’ Li Na replied, ‘The large suitcase needs to be checked, and the small bag can be taken on the plane.’ Zhang Wei understood.
They walked towards the check-in area. Zhang Wei saw many people in line. Li Na said, ‘Don’t worry, we have time.’ Zhang Wei looked at his passport and ticket, thinking about his first flight. The airport announcements kept sounding, reminding passengers to pay attention to the time. Zhang Wei thought the airport was a really interesting place.
