  We had hardly got above the clouds over the airport when a calm voice said over the loudspeaker:“For technical reasons we shall be returning immediately to London Airport. Please keep your seatbelts fastened.”

  I was rather surprised and glanced at the old lady next to me. She had been very chatty while we were waiting to take off.

  “I'm going to New York to visit some relatives there. I always sleep wonderfully welt whenever I get into a plane.”she had told me.

  And indeed, she seemed to he in a very deep sleep already.

  Just then a passenger behind me shouted,“Oh, my God! The wing's on fire.”

  I looked out of the window and my blood froze. Smoke and flames were pouring out of one of the engines. The plane was already turning and losing altitude fast.

  “What's happening? Are we going to crash?”an American in front of me demanded.

  The cabin crew were already moving up and down the aisle (走道), reassuring (安慰) people, saying things like,“It's just all right. There's no need to worry. Now, if you just sit still, everything will be all right. Don't get up. Don't get upset.”

  I looked out again. The ground was rushing up at us with shocking speed. We were already so low that I could make out cars and even people.

“It's only a slight emergency,”a stewardess told me with a tense smile.

Suddenly there was a sickening bump and we were rushing along the runway at a terrifying speed. The brakes screeched (发出尖锐刺耳的声音). The engines roared even more loudly. We came to a trembling stop. The cabin crew quickly opened the emergency exits and the passengers began sliding down huge, stocking-like chutes (滑道) to the ground. A fire engine was already putting out the fire in one engine. I had to shake the old lady violently to wake her up.

  “What's wrong? Surely the journey isn't over already! I mean, have we got to New York?”she asked sleepily.

1.When did the emergency occur?

  When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger.But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health.Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite(胃口)and better sleep patterns.“People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,”says Dr Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good“So it can help save on the wear and tear on, our system and allow people to feel more energetic”

  So when someone has hurt you, calm yourself first.Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure:a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love Don’t wait for an apology“Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing”says Dr Luskin“They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way.So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.”Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you.Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain.Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective(视角).You may realize that he or she-was acting out of ignorance(无知),fear-even love.To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view.

  Of course,what is an ideal(理想)holiday for one person may be a very unpleasant one for another.The sportsman likes a kind of holiday which his lazy friend would find worse than his daily work;while the lazy man’s ideal holiday would leave the sportsman quite unsatisfied.

  If I were allowed to choose my own holiday,I would have no doubts;I would go on a voyage(远航)in a modern passenger ship with a swimming bath.Even if my sportsman friend and my lazy friend came with me,they would both be happy;one would have plenty of games,swimming and dancing;the other could sit in a comfortable chair all day,looking at the sea and drinking lemonade(柠檬水)or beer.In a ship,one can do as one likes.If one day I find an interesting book in the ship’s library,I can spend the whole day reading it,and nobody will stop me.Perhaps the next day I shall want some exercise.Well,then I can play games with other passengers until I am hot and sweating and ready for a bath.I can go and sleep in my cabin at any time of the day or night,I can get cheap drinks during most of the day,and I can eat as I like,choosing among a variety of foods.

  But what I like even more about a sea voyage is the chance to meet new and interesting people from many countries.What other kind of holiday gives us such a chance?Freed from(从……解脱)all the duties of life at home,we can talk,play games,swim,drink,sing and dance with our new friends.They can tell us about their own countries,their daily lives and amusements,their hopes and their fears.And in return we can tell them all about ourselves.

  But perhaps the greatest pleasure of a sea holiday is coming to new ports in strange lands,and going ashore for a few hours to see strange places,eat strange foods and hear a strange language talked around us.Whenever I think of my ideal holiday,it is the picture of a mysterious foreign city that comes to my mind.
