Ps: 52s左右有引号My brother's flight arrived and, after getting his suitcases,  we headed for my car in the parking lot. During the drive home I told him all about the briefcase. When we got home and were unloading the car, I could hardly believe my eyes when my brother took a briefcase out of the car. The briefcase I thought I had lost had never been taken into the airport. It had been on the floor in the back seat. I realized that at that moment the airline people were checking each piece of baggage on their Denver, St. Louis and Chicago flights, looking for my briefcase. The thought of having to call and tell them I had found it in my car was painful.
As we walked in the house the telephone was ringing. Answering it, I was shocked when an airline worker said, "We have good news for you. We found your briefcase in Denver. It should be here by eleven o'clock and will be delivered to you shortly after midnight."我兄弟的航班到了。我们领了他的箱子后便走向停车场找我的车。回家的路上,我把公文包的事告诉了她。到了家,我们把行李从车上卸下来。当我兄弟从车里拿出一只公文包时,我简直不敢相信自己的眼睛。原以为已丢失的公文包其实根本就没有被带进机场它一直躺在后座的地上。我意识到，此时此刻航空公司的人正在开往丹佛、圣路易斯和芝加哥的航班上逐一检查行李，寻找我的公文包。我还得打电话告诉他们，已经在自己的车里找到了包，一想到要打这个电话，心里真叫痛苦。
我们走进屋子时电话铃正响着。听电话时，我惊呆了，电话里一位航空公司的工作人员说“我们有好消息告诉你，我们在丹佛找到了你的公文包，11点前应该能到这里。午夜后不久便能送到你家。”
