考点规范练26(必修5 Module 2) .阅读理解 A My passion started decades ago as a kid on a flight to India.I was attracted by how such a large airplane was able to glide(滑翔) smoothly above the clouds.I made it a goal to become a pilot.I am now a pilot for American airlines.Though being a pilot consumes my life,it is a job worth doing. My job is slightly different compared to that of a typical pilot.Most pilots have their routes they fly.They then familiarize themselves with the routes.However,in my case,I participate in any job where a pilot is immediately required.It is true that some days I might have a workday from nine in the morning to five in the afternoon.In fact,some days,I might even begin my work at three in the morning when I am needed to fly.Sometimes,as for the typical day,I do not have one. Having been on the job for over two decades,I have learned some important life lessons.As I greet passengers boarding the airplane,I realize I,along with other airline pilots,have enhanced(提高) the lives of those who we are serving.In fact,there is one particular experience that I will never forget.A family was walking in from the gate,explaining that their beloved one was ill and had to be taken to a big hospital in another city immediately.It was at this point that I realized just how important my job was. Therefore,my life as an airline pilot is definitely not for everyone.However,my job is something I enjoy thoroughly and will continue to do till I am old enough.As a pilot,I have been able to experience so many different types of situations in different places throughout the world.For anyone interested in piloting airplanes,I would recommend going for it. |
