English Original
When George was thirty-five, he bought a small plane and learned to fly it. He soon became very proficient and could perform all kinds of aerial tricks with his plane.
George had a friend named Mark. One day, George offered to take Mark up in his plane. Mark thought, "I've traveled in a big plane several times, but I've never been in a small one, so I'll go."
They went up, and George flew around for half an hour, performing various tricks in the air.
When they landed, Mark was very glad to be back safely. In a shaking voice, he said to his friend, "Well, George, thank you very much for those two trips in your plane."
George was very surprised and said, "Two trips?"
"Yes, my first and my last," answered Mark.

乔治三十五岁时买了一架小型飞机，并学会了驾驶。他很快就变得非常熟练，能用他的飞机做出各种空中特技。
乔治有个朋友名叫马克。一天，乔治主动邀请马克乘坐他的飞机上天。马克心想：“我坐大飞机旅行过好几次，但从没坐过小飞机，所以我去试试。”
他们飞上天空，乔治盘旋飞行了半个小时，在空中表演了各种特技。
当他们着陆后，马克很高兴能安全返回地面。他用颤抖的声音对朋友说：“嗯，乔治，非常感谢你让我在你的飞机上进行了那两次旅行。”
乔治非常惊讶，问道：“两次旅行？”
“是的，我的第一次和最后一次。”马克回答道。
