II Topic: Airlines have changed the ways we travel Do you think so?

An airplane is a form of transportation that has changed people's lives Thanks to the plane, our lives are now faster, more exciting, and more convenient that before.

You cannot deny that a plane is fast For example, the Concorde flies at supersonic speed A businessman can leave Paris at 11 a.m in the morning and arrive in New York at 8 a.m the same morning in time for a day's work Many business people in Europe will fly to London for a noon meeting and then return home to Rome or Madrid for dinner.

It is always exciting to take a plane trip When you take a trip by plane, you know that you might cross many time zones, many oceans, and many countries When you get off the plane, you could be in a place that speaks a different language A plane is like a magician's trick You get in a box and you come out somewhere totally different.

Nothing can beat the convenience of a plane In the old days, it might take you days to do what the plane can do it an hour Boats, for example, only leave on certain days of the week and take a long time to get

to their destination Planes give you the option to leave several times a day and get you to your destination quickly.

Although other forms of transportation may be more comfortable, none has changed the way we do business and live our lives more than the plane Thanks to the speed, excitement, and convenience of the planes, our lives are richer.
