Taxi!
原文
Does Captain Fawcett think any trip is too dangerous?
Captain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service.
The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'.
This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers.
The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field.
Captain Fawcett's first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains.
Since then, Captain Fawcett has flown passengers to many unusual places.
Once he landed on the roof of a block of flats and on another occasion, he landed in a deserted car park.
Captain Fawcett has just refused a strange request from a businessman.
The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonely island in the Atlantic Ocean,
but Captain Fawcett did not take him because the trip was too dangerous.
译文
福塞特船长认为有哪次旅行是过于危险的吗？
本·福塞特船长买了一辆与众不同的出租车，并开始提供一项新的服务。
这架“出租车”其实是一架小型瑞士飞机，被称为“Pilatus Porter”。
这架出色的飞机可以搭载七名乘客。
然而，最令人惊讶的是：它可以在任何地方降落——无论是雪地上、水面上，还是已经翻耕过的田地里。
福塞特船长的第一位乘客是一位医生，他乘坐飞机从伯明翰飞往威尔士山区的一个偏远村庄。
从那以后，福塞特船长已经把乘客送到了许多不寻常的地方。
有一次，他把飞机降落在一栋公寓楼的屋顶上；还有一次，他降落在一个废弃的停车场里。
福塞特船长刚刚拒绝了一位商人的奇怪请求。
这个人想要飞往罗卡尔岛（Rockall），那是大西洋上一座孤寂的岛屿。
但是福塞特船长没有带他去，因为这次旅行太危险了。
