The Airplane

Bill wanted to see his grandparents, but there was a problem. They lived in New York. He lived in Oregon. Bill was afraid to fly in an airplane.

“It’s fun,” said George. “It’s like being a bird.”

“You can have whatever you want to drink on an airplane,” said Lola. “Even soda!”

“It’s too high,” Bill said. “I like to be on the ground.”

Then one day, Grandpa invited Bill for his birthday. “I will pay for your plane ticket,” he said.

Bill tried to be brave. He walked behind his parents up to the plane. He sat down in his seat. Then, the plane took off. Bill’s hands were wet with sweat. But outside, he saw fluffy white clouds. They were pretty! A woman brought him ginger ale. Flying wasn’t so scary after all!

飞机

比尔想见他的祖父母，但有个问题。他们住在纽约，而他住在俄勒冈州。比尔害怕坐飞机。

乔治说：“坐飞机很有趣，就像是变身一只鸟。”

萝拉说：“你可以在飞机上喝任何你想喝的东西，甚至是汽水！”

“太高了，我喜欢在地上。”比尔说。

然后有一天，爷爷邀请比尔去给他过生日。“我会支付你的机票。”他说。

比尔努力表现得勇敢。他跟在父母身后走向飞机。他在座位上坐下。然后，飞机起飞了。比尔紧张得手上都是汗。但他向外看到了轻软的白云。很漂亮！一位女士给他拿来了姜汁汽水。飞行还是没那么可怕！
