新概念英语第二册第79课 Lesson 79 By air?乘飞机????I used to travel by air a great deal when I was a boy. My?parents?used to live in South America and I used to fly there from Europe in the holidays. A?flight?attendant?would take charge of me and I never had an?unpleasant?experience. I am used to travelling by air and only on one?occasion?have I ever felt frightened. After taking off, we were flying low over the city and slowly gaining height, when the plane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport. While we were waiting to land, a?flight attendant?told us to keep calm and to get off the plane quietly as soon as it had touched down. Everybody on board was worried and we were?curious?to find out what had happened. Later we learnt that there was a very important person on board. The police had been told that a?bomb?had been?planted?on the plane. After we had landed, the plane was searched?thoroughly. Fortunately, nothing was found and five hours later we were able to take off again.
