Many people like to travel（旅行）by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport（飛機場）is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for(等待）hours for the plane to take off（起飛） and it is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose（選擇）the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to go out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late（晚的）for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey（旅行）when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
【小題1】Why do many people like to travel by plane?

A man got a new car and he was very proud 　26　 it. One day, when he 　27　 back home, he saw his three-year-old son 　28　 hitting the new car with a toy hammer. The man was 　29　 angry that he ran to his son, grabbed the hammer from 　30　, and used the hammer to hit the little boy’s hands too hard. The 　31　 boy cried out but his father didn’t care.
　　When the father 　32　, he took his son to the 　33　 as fast as he could. Although the doctor tried his best to save the 　34　 bones（骨頭）, he had to cut the fingers from both of the boy’s hands in the end.
　　When the boy 　35　 in the hospital and saw his hands, he innocently(天真) said, “Dady, I’m sorry about your car.” Then he asked, “but 　36　 are my fingers going to grow back?” The father 　37　 very sad.
　　Think about the story when 　38　 steps on your feet or when you wish to take revenge(報復(fù)). Think first before you lose your patience with someone. Cars can 　39　, but broken bones and hurt feelings often can’t.
　　People often make mistakes. But we should remember that forgiveness is greater than revenge. 　40　 before act!
