Why did the plane turn back?
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 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 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.

我在幼年的時(shí)候，曾多次乘飛機(jī)旅行。我的父母曾經(jīng)住在南美洲，所以假期里我常從歐洲乘飛機(jī)到他們那里。我總是由一位空中乘務(wù)員照管，從未遇到過不愉快的經(jīng)歷。我習(xí)慣了乘飛機(jī)旅行，只是有把我嚇壞了。起飛之后，我們?cè)诔鞘猩峡盏偷偷仫w行，然后慢慢爬高。這時(shí)飛機(jī)突然調(diào)轉(zhuǎn)頭來，飛回了機(jī)場(chǎng)。在我們等待降落時(shí)，一位空中乘務(wù)員告訴我們要保持鎮(zhèn)靜，待飛機(jī)一著陸，就馬上不聲不響地離開飛機(jī)。飛機(jī)上的人都很著急，大家都急于想知道究竟出了什么事。后來我們才得知，飛機(jī)上坐了一位非常重要的人物。有人報(bào)告警察，說飛機(jī)上安放了一枚炸彈。我們降落之后，飛機(jī)被徹底搜查了一遍。幸運(yùn)的是，什么也沒有找到。5個(gè)小時(shí)后，我們又起飛了。

How many people visited the Great Exhibition of 1851?
Perhaps the most extraordinary building of the nineteeth century was the Crystal Palace, which was built in Hyde Park for the Great Exhibition of 1851. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass. It was one of the biggest buildings of all time and a lot of people from many countries came to see it. A great many goods were sent to the exhibition from various parts of the world. There was also a great deal of machinery on display. The most wonderful piece of machinery on show was Nasmyth's steam hammer. Though in those days, traveling was not as easy as it is today, steam boats carried thousands of visitors across the Channel from Europe. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train. There were six million visitors in all, and the profits from the exhibition were used to build museums and colleges. Later, the Crystal Palace was moved to South London. It remained one of the most famous buildings in the world until it was burnt down in 1936.

Why did the prisoner attack the driver?
When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes. Working rapidly in the darkness, he soon changed into the dead man's clothes. Now, dressed in a blue uniform and with a rifle over his shoulder, the prisoner marched boldly up and down in front of the camp. He could hear shouting in the camp itself. Lights were blazing and men were running here and there: they had just discovered that a prisoner had escaped. At that moment, a large black car with four officers inside it, stopped at the camp gates. The officers got out and the prisoner stood to attention and saluted as they passed. When they had gone, the driver of the car came towards him. The man obviously wanted to talk. He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes. The prisoner felt sorry for him, but there was nothing else he could do. As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow. Then, jumping into the car, he drove off as quickly as he could.
