The most important lesson I learned in high school had nothing to do with maths or American

history．It came at graduation, several minutes before I left Miramonte High School．

I was rather shy back then, content to 36 around with my few friends and to concentrate on my 37 I was doing so well that by the end of senior year I had perfect scores and enough 38 to go to college．

But my good record soon became a 39 to my well-being．In early June of senior year, the headmaster called me into his office．He asked me to give a leave-taking speech at graduation．I looked at him, my heart 40 fast．This was the _^1__ for my hard work? I said something, but not very clearly, and hurried away from the office．

I was 42 about the decision, finally agreeing to compromise．I wasn't the only speaker—I would 43 the honor with five other students．Still, it was doubtful whether the task was 44 me．How in the world would I give a speech to hundreds of people?

Graduation day soon arrived and, as 45 ．I was nervous．I'd been practicing my speech for days, and I had it 46 ．But I had never been so 47 in my life．The first half hour of the ceremony passed, and then my 48 came．My name was announced．I managed to reach the platform without falling down．But within minutes, I was 49 , heading back to my seat．

Now I still have the 50 of that speech．My voice trembled a little, but 51__ it was clear and strong．I'm proud of that tape．I achieved something I'd never _ 52 — I spoke in front of hundreds of people． 53 I didn't realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the 54 to participate in class at college, to give oral reports, and to eventually break free of my 55

I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation．But I'm glad I did．I know it may well turn out to be one of my shining moments．

A

Things Your Pilot Won't Tell You

You may not be getting the airline you paid for．

You may go to an airline website and buy a ticket, and get onto an airplane that has a similar name painted on it, but half the time, you're really on a regional （地方的） airline．The regionals aren't held to the same safety standards as the majors: their pilots aren't required to have as much training and experience, and the public doesn't know that．

—Captain at a major airline

If you're a nervous flier, book a morning flight．

The heating of the ground later causes bumpier （颠簸的） air, and it's much more likely to thunderstorm in the afternoon．

—Jerry Johnson , pilot, Los Angeles

The smoothest place to sit is often over or near the wing．

The bumpiest place to sit is in the back．If you're in the middle, you don't move as much．

—Patrick Smith, pilot, and author of Cockpit Confidential

Sit in the front if you want fresher air．

The general flow of air in any airplane is from front to back．So if you're really concerned about breathing the freshest possible air or not getting too hot, sit as close to the front as you can．Planes are generally warmest in the back．

—Tech pilot at a regional airline, Texas

You never know where the safest seat is．

There is no safest place to sit．In one accident, the people in the back are dead; in the next, it's the people up front．

—John Nance, aviation safety analyst and retired airline captain, Seattle

I've been struck by lightning twice．

Most pilots have．Airplanes are built to take it．You hear a big boom and see a big flash and that's it．You're not going to fall out of the sky．

—Charlotte, pilot for a regional earner,．North Carolina

People don't understand why they can't use their cell phones．

Well, what can happen is 12 people will decide to call someone just before landing, ．and I can get a false reading on my instruments saying that we are higher than we ideally are．

—Jim Tilmon, retired American Airlines pilot, Phoenix

56．Jerry Johnson advises nervous fliers to ______．

A．sit in the back B．fly in the morning

C．fly with major airlines D．avoid flying in bad weather

57．The best seats for those who need fresh air are ______．

A．in the, front B．in the middle C．in the back D．near the wing

58．Passengers' use of cellphones before landing is likely to ______．

A．increase the risk of being struck by lightning

B．make it difficult for pilots to control the plane

C．cause the instruments of the plane to break down

D．affect pilots' judgment about the height of the plane

B

All you have is what you bring with you

I've always felt a need to be prepare
