现在因公或因私出国都已司空见惯,不像在改革开放前被视为“高不可攀”了。五月下旬,几位老朋友知道我已退休赋闲在家,就邀我“到韩国玩儿几天吧!”。我原以为不过说说而已。“这么短时间,能办成吗?”因为当时离出境日期只剩三四天时间了。谁知两天后,朋友通知我“后天就走了,准备行囊吧!” It is now commonplace to go abroad for business or private reasons, unlike being “unmanaged” before the reform and opening up. In late May, a few old friends know that I have retired at home and invited me to “play in Korea for a few days!” I thought I could only talk about it. “So short period of time, can do it?” Because only three or four days left from the date of departure. Surprisingly, two days later, my friend informed me that “the day after tomorrow is gone, prepare the luggage!”
