Two Stories On Flying Test-1

The young seagull was afraid to fly because it was its first flight. It is a well-known fact that doing something for the first time is challenging. Therefore, all young birds must be afraid to make their first flights.

The young seagull was very hungry. It was this hunger that ultimately compelled it to fly. Its hunger only intensified when it saw its mother tearing at a piece of fish that lay at her feet.

The young seagull was afraid to fly. Even when it saw its brothers and sisters flying, and its parents helping and teaching them, it could not gather enough courage to make that first flight. That is why its father and mother were calling to it shrilly and scolding it.

The story “Black Aeroplane” is about a pilot who feels happy and contended to fly over a city that is sleeping (at the night time). He is flying from Paris to London.

While travelling from Paris to London, the pilot was faced with huge storm clouds. They looked like black mountains standing in front of him across the sky.

In the black clouds quite near him, the narrator saw another aeroplane. It had no lights on its wings, but he could see it flying next to him through the storm. He could also see the pilot’s face — turned towards him.

To skim is to move lightly just above a surface (here, the sea).

To fly high means be very successful or prosper.
