  Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy's surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning.It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.

  “Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office.I just know you'd be a trustworthy worker.Congratulations! ” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.

  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?

A.We are not told.

C.Way of thinking or behaving.

D.Way of positioning the body.

3.What would be the best title for the text?

[  ]

A.An unpleasant flight.

B.An interesting experience.

C.An unforgettable experience.

D.Brave cabin crew.

4.When they landed, the old lady _____.
