10 分钟Hello.
Welcome back to my slow English podcast.
A comprehensible and clear way of listening to English.
Practice repeating any words you don't understand first, and try to listen without reading the subtitles.
Today, I want to talk to you about some common conversations or words you can use at the airport.
When I arrive at the airport, I always make sure I have my passports, my boarding pass, and all of my luggage.
Those three things are essential to check.
I triple check before I leave my house and when I arrive at the airport.
Once I get to the security checkpoint, I show my boarding pass to the security guard,
and they point me to which line I should go.
So, I stand in line, and I wait.
I take off my shoes, I take off my coat, and I take all my electronics out of my bag.
If I have headphones, or a laptop, or my phone, and even my chargers,
I put them all in a basket, and then I walk through the metal detector.
And I don't usually get checked for extra security,
but sometimes they check with a little metal detector to see if I have any metal on my body.
They will say, can you please step to the side, and they scan with their little metal detector.
Once, I had a big bottle of sunscreen lotion, and they threw the whole thing in the garbage.
It was my fault because it was over 100 milliliters, but I was still so angry.
They could have just kept it for themselves, or given it to somebody else.
