Write a story in which fear of flying is an important part. (350 and 500 words).
Answers
Answer:
My entire adult life has been hampered by a terrible fear of flying. To give you an idea of how intense that fear can be, in 2011 I abandoned an amazing three-week adventure through Central Mexico with my wife, because I couldn’t even get myself onto the first flight. Fortunately, my outlook has changed a lot since then, and I wanted to share the story of how award travel played a role in enabling me to confidently board a plane.
Answer:
The plane is full. The fat man beside me spills over his seat into mine. I lean my forehead on the window, counting the tiny houses, a splash of blue behind each one.
“Going to England for a vacation?” The man asks.
“Going home,” I say.
“I’m going to visit with my daughter.” Something in his voice makes me turn. His hands are gripping the arm-rests, sweat beading his top lip. “Scared of flying,” he says through gritted teeth.
We hold hands for the rest of the flight, while he tells me about his daughter and I try not to think about my father in the hold.
