练习 1
Complete the conversation below with the appropriate travel terms.

Travel Agent: For your departure Mr. Connors, you will be flying San Francisco International Airport.
Kevin: I suppose that's okay.
Travel Agent: And for your arrival, you will at Hong Kong International Airport.
Kevin: Listen, I hate flying. Is there any way you can me to first class? I'd feel so much better.
Travel Agent: I'm afraid not. But if you prefer not to fly, you can always go train.
Kevin: A train to Hong Kong? Are you mad? I'll take the plane thanks!
Complete the conversation below with the appropriate travel terms.

Travel Agent: For your departure Mr. Connors, you will be flying out of 1 San Francisco International Airport.
Kevin: I suppose that's okay.
Travel Agent: And for your arrival, you will land 2 at Hong Kong International Airport.
Kevin: Listen, I hate flying. Is there any way you can upgrade 3 me to first class? I'd feel so much better.
Travel Agent: I'm afraid not. But if you prefer not to fly, you can always go by 4 train.
Kevin: A train to Hong Kong? Are you mad? I'll take the plane thanks!
1 out of: This is the most suitable choice. To fly "out of" a city is to depart or leave "from" a city. Example: For my trip to the US, we flew out of Heathrow Airport.
1 by: This is incorrect. To fly "by" a place is to fly via it, or to make a stop there.
1 of: This choice is incorrect. To fly "of" a place is not grammatically correct.
2 land: This is the correct choice. The travel agent is referring to Kevin's arrival. When a plane "lands" at a destination, it arrives there. To "land (a plane)" is to bring a plane down onto the ground (or earth). The opposite is "to take off".
2 take off: This is incorrect. The travel agent is referring to Kevin's arrival (not departure). A plane "takes off" when it leaves the ground and ascends into the air.
2 fly: This is incorrect. We fly "to" a place, not "at" a place.
3 upgrade: This is the correct choice. To "upgrade (a ticket)" is to raise it to a higher grade or class (usually from second class to first class). Example: The economy section was full, so the flight crew upgraded my ticket to business class.
3 update: This is incorrect. To "update (someone)" is to inform them of the latest news. To "update (a file)" is to supply it with the latest information.
3 upscale: This is incorrect. "Upscale" is an adjective meaning "classy", "luxurious", "elegant" or "expensive". For example: The restaurants in this neighborhood are quite upscale, I prefer eating at McFooFoo's Fried Food Emporium.
4 by: This is the correct choice. The preposition "by" is used for means of transport such as trains, planes, and automobiles. Example: "Edward goes by bus to the office every day." Note that to describe "walking", both "on foot" and "by foot" are used, however never "by feet"!
4 on: This is the incorrect preposition to use. We go "on foot" but not "on train". To be "on a train" is to be inside the train.
4 in: This is the incorrect preposition to use. The preposition "in" is rarely used with means of transport, such as trains. You can "live in a train", but not "travel in a train".
