534　When it quits leaking 当它不再漏的时候

Boarding a military transport plane, I noticed hydraulic fluid pouring from the tail section. “Excuse me,” I said to a crewmember. “Do you know the aircraft has a leak?” “Yep,” he said as he continued on his way. “Aren't you concerned?” He shrugged. “Well,” I asked, “how do you know when you're out of fluid?” “When it quits leaking,” he answered.

在登上军用运输机的时候，我注意到液压液从飞机尾部不断流出来。我对一个机组人员说：“对不起，你知道不知道这架飞机有渗漏？”“知道。”他一边说一边继续走。“那你担心吗？”他耸耸肩膀。我又问：“那你怎么知道它什么时候漏完了呢？”他回答：“当它不再漏的时候。”
