1--I need to fly to New York.

2--When are you going?

1--During the Christmas holidays.

2--You'd better buy your ticket now.

1--You must be kidding.

2--No, I'm not. It's March. Time is running out. Seats are selling out right now.

1--I thought I would wait until October.

2--I'll bet this is the first time you've ever flown during Christmas.

1--You're right.

2--Well, listen to me. You need to buy a ticket now.

1--But maybe prices will be cheaper in October.

2--Cheaper prices won't do you any good if there are no seats.

1--我需要飞往纽约。

2--你要什么时候去？

1--圣诞假期间。

2--你最好现在买票。

1--你一定在开玩笑。

2--不是，我没有。现在是三月。时间不够用了。座位马上就销售一空。

1--我以为我可以等到10月再买。

2--我敢打赌这是你第一次在圣诞期间搭飞机。

1--是的。

2--好吧，听我的。你需要现在就买票。

1--但是10月时价格可能会更便宜。

2--如果没有票了更便宜的价格也没有用。
