    and I used to fly there from Europe in the holidays. An airhostess would take charge of me and I never
    had an unpleasant experience. I am used to traveling  (习惯于某事) by air and only on one occasion
    have I ever felt frightened. After taking off, we were flying low over the city and slowly gaining height
    (逐步升高), when the plane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport. While we were waiting
    to land, an air-hostess told us to keep calm and to get off the plane quietly as soon as it had touched
    down. Everybody on board was worried and we were curious to find out what had happened. Later
    we learned that there was a very important person on board. The police had been told  (被告诉,得知)
    that a bomb had been planted on the plane. After we had landed, the plane was searched thoroughly
    (被彻底搜查). Fortunately, nothing was found and five hours later we were able to take off again.

    was a clever boy. He could answer questions cleverly in class. He was quick at thinking. It seemed
    that everything was easy to him. He never seemed to work hard. He spent much time on football or
    other games.
         Jimmy was not so clever as Tommy. He was slow in his work. But he was hard-working. He
    worked hard and steadily (扎实地) at his lessons day after day.
         In the final examination of the term, everyone thought Tommy would be the first in the class. But
    it was wrong. The slow but hard-working Jimmy got the first place.

    was just different. He was slow but hard-working. So he did well in his lessons.
