It has sailed across the Atlantic many times. Captain Alison will set out at eight o'clock, so we'll have plenty of time. We'll see his boat and then we'll say goodbye to him.

Good luck! 这一祝愿语在英语中比“祝你好运!”在中文中使用的范围要宽得多。新学期开始老师会对学生说Good luck!,监考人员也会在开考前对考生说Good luck!，甚至平常的时候再见也可以在“再见”之后再加一个Good luck!，从而一起说成：Goodbye and good luck! luck [l?k] n. [u] 1. good things that happen to you by chance, not because of your own efforts or abilities好运；幸运；侥幸
