游轮“挂羊头卖狗肉” 乘客苦不堪言

About 4,000 people are stuck aboard a Miami-based cruise ship(游轮) off the coast of Mexico. They are anxiously waiting for their return home. “It’s just terrible. I just want to go home,” said Stephanie Smith of Washington, DC. She has been on the Norwegian Escape since Sept. 2.
The ship, which is operated by Norwegian Cruise Line, tried to get a jump on the storm and had returned to Miami on Sept. 7, two days early, to unload(卸货). But many people couldn’t find hotel rooms or flights out of Florida, so when offered a chance to stay aboard for free, they took it. 
The ship has been stopped in Cozumel, with many vacationers wondering when they’ll make it back to Miami. “It’s really frustrating and extremely wet and hot here,” said Smith, a freelance(自由职业的) TV journalist. She also said that passengers were under high pressure for expensive bottled water—$54 for a 24-pack of Dasani—and Wi-Fi at $30 a day.
The ship was scheduled to head back toward Miami on Monday night in the hopes that Port Miami, where the cruise ship docks(停靠码头), would be open on Tuesday.
