Lesson 29 Taxi🌻Part 1: TextCaptain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service. The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'. This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers. The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field. Captain Fawcett's first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains. Since then, Captain Fawcett has flown passengers to many unusual places. Once he landed on the roof of a block of flats and on another occasion, he landed in a deserted car park. Captain Fawcett has just refused a strange request from a businessman. The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonely island in the Atlantic Ocean, but Captain Fawcett did not take him because the trip was too dangerous.🌻Part 2: New words and expressions1 taxi['tæksi] n.出租汽车2 Pilatus Porter皮勒特斯·波特(飞机机名)3 land[lænd] v.着陆4 plough[plau] v.耕地5 lonely['ləunli] a.偏僻的，人迹罕至的6 Welsh[welʃ] a.威尔士的7 roof[ru:f] n.楼顶8 block[blɔk] n.一座大楼9 flat[flæt] n.公寓房10 desert ['dezət] v.废弃★taxi['tæksi] n.出租汽车take a taxi to…     打的去…cab [kæb] n.出租车(美)；(公共汽车、火车等的)司机室, 驾驶室；出租马车(Am)by taxi      by cab 打车★ land[lænd] v.着陆1) n.
