A half million people watched the troops march in New York's ticker tape parade.

有50万人观看了部队在纸带纷飞的纽约列队前进。

We looked out the windows. Reams of paper were flying everywhere, like a ticker-tape parade. Smoke started billowing in through the ceiling.

朝窗外看，无数纸张在漫天飞舞。浓烟开始穿过天花板滚滚而出。

In the early days, it seemed as if they threw a ticker-tape parade every time an astronaut stepped onto his front lawn.

早些时候，每当宇航员一出现就会引来人们盛大的列队欢迎。
