Gate closed early

美国飞机起飞前早早就关上舱门停止登机

When you've scheduled a flight in America, it's almost a written rule that you should arrive at least 2 hours ahead of time. Chinese students who study abroad in America often cite this difference as one they had to learn about the hard way. They would show up to a gate with plenty of time before take-off but because the gates closed earlier than they expected, the students would have to wait for the next flight. This is not a common issue in China, so the Chinese students couldn’t understand why the boarding gates closed so early in American airports.

在美国乘飞机出行，一般至少要在飞机起飞两小时前抵达机场，这基本上已经是一个成文的规定了。对于留美的中国学生来说，这个中美差异是他们必须要领会的。有的时候，他们会早早抵达登机口，以为在飞机起飞之前给自己留足了时间，可是往往却还得等坐下一班飞机，因为机舱门比他们意想中关闭得还要早。这种情况在中国并不常见，所以他们不理解为什么美国机场会在飞机起飞之前那么早就停止登机。
