880　The Rest of Your Life 你余下的生命

My army troop was learning how to parachute from a plane. At 12,000 feet, our drill instructor shouted out instructions for surviving a jump from above the clouds at more than 200 m.p.h. A young recruit raised his hand and asked, “Once we jump out, how much time do we have to pull the cord?” The instructor looked back, smiled and said, “The rest of your life.”

我的陆军部队正在学习从飞机上跳伞。在一万二千尺高空，跳伞教练喊出要在两百英里时速从云层上面往下跳的指令。一个年轻的新兵举手问道：“我们跳出去以后，有多长时间可以拉伞绳？”教练回头看了看，微笑着说：“你余下的生命。”
