Read the following passage carefully: Airplanes have the reputation of being dangerous and even hardened travellers are intimidated by them. They also have the grave disadvantage of being the most expensive form of transport but nothing can match them for speed and comfort, travelling at the height of 30,000 feet, far above the clouds and at over 500 miles an hour is an amazing experience. For a few hours you settle back in a deep armchair to enjoy the flight. The real escapist can watch a free film show and sip a hot or cold drink on some services. An airplane offers you an unusual breathtaking view of the world. You soar effortlessly over high mountains and deep valleys. You really see the shape of the land. If the landscape is hidden from view, you can enjoy the extraordinary sight of unbroken clouds, plains that stretch out for miles before you; while the sun shines brilliantly in a clear sky. The journey is so smooth that there's nothing to prevent you from reading or sleeping. The best advantage of an air journey is that you don't feel tired after the journey. However you decide to spend your time, one thing is certain: you will arrive at your destination fresh and uncrumpled. You will not have to spend the next few days recovering from a long and arduous journey.
