露西的一天 第55期:乘坐公共交通工具去上班講解(5)

Lucy gets "on and since it's so crowded," or because there are so many people there, 露西“上車(chē)之后”，因?yàn)檐?chē)上“太擁擠了，”或者因?yàn)檐?chē)上人很多，

"there aren't any seats" and so she has to stand, and she stands by "holding onto a handrail," "handrail," (one word). “沒(méi)有座位”，所以她不得不站著，“抓住扶手(handrail)”站著。

A handrail is a piece of metal that is in a subway train that you can grab onto. 扶手是一塊金屬，在地鐵里你可以抓著它。

You can hold your hand around this piece of metal so that you don't fall when the train goes forward and stops; 你可以抓住這塊金屬，這樣當(dāng)列車(chē)發(fā)動(dòng)和停下的時(shí)候你就不會(huì)摔倒;

this is called a handrail because it's where you put your hand. 這叫做扶手，因?yàn)槟愕氖址鲈诹松厦妗?/p>

Of course, you could also put your hand on the person next to you, but they may not like that, so use the handrail! 當(dāng)然，你也可以把你的手放在你旁邊的人身上，但他們可能不喜歡，所以用扶手吧!
