Lesson 79 By Air?【Text 】I used to travel by air a great deal when I was a boy. My parents used to live in South America andI 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 traveling 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 theplane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport. While we were waiting to land, a flightattendant 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.【课文翻译】我在幼年的时候， 曾多次乘飞机旅行。
