Flying is a fast way to travel. But it is a big headache for some people. They can’t help worrying about things like, “Is turbulence (顛簸) a bad thing?” or, “Is it dangerous if we don’t change our mobile phones to flight mode (飛行模式)?” British newspaper Daily Mail spoke to some experts to answer these questions. They also tell us other interesting things about flying.
Is turbulence dangerous?
It’s scary and uncomfortable. But it is not something you really need to worry about.
Turbulence is caused when two groups of air hit one another at different speeds. Wind, thunderstorms (暴風(fēng)雨) and being close to mountains can be reasons for this.
You may feel like turbulence is dangerous, but it won’t crash (墜毀) your plane. “Even in extremely rough air (擾動氣流), the wings (機翼) are not going to break off,” explained Patrick Smith, an airline pilot, who is also an air travel blogger and author of AskThePilot.com.
Why are plane windows round?
Round windows are for passenger safety.
As the airplane flies higher and higher, the outside atmospheric pressure (氣壓) gets lower and lower. During the flight, the pressure inside the plane becomes greater than the pressure outside.
When this happens, square windows can break. That’s because having different pressures inside and outside puts pressure on the corners of square windows. But rounded corners can spread the pressure through the window.
What happens when a phone isn’t on flight mode?
Some passengers believe mobile phones and tablets need to be turned off because they could bring the plane down. However, this is not true.
If you don’t change your phone to flight mode, pilots and air traffic controllers may hear unpleasant sounds in their headphones. It also influences radio communications. So it’s still best to put it on flight mode.

A. show what worries people may have about flying

3.Planes use round windows rather than square ones, because ____.
A. round windows can spread the pressure
B. round windows can add outside pressure
C. square windows can lower(降低) the pressure on the windows
D. the corners of square windows are difficult to make
4.What happens if a phone isn’t on flight mode?
A. The plane will crash.
B. Air traffic controllers can’t get any information.
C. It may influence radio communications.
D. It may be noisy in the plane.

Young People in Britain
Life used to be fun for “teenagers”. They used to have money to spend, and free time to while away(消磨). They used to wear teenage clothes, and meet in teenage coffee bars and discos. Some of them still do. But for many young people, life is harder now. 1. are difficult to find. There’s not so much money around. Things are 2. , and it’s hard to find a place to live in. Teachers say that students work harder than they used to. They are less 3. in politics, and more interested in 4. exams. They know that good exam results may bring them better jobs.
Most young people worry more about money than their parents did twenty years ago. They try 5. less and save more. They want to be able to get homes of their own one day.
For some, the answer to unemployment(失業(yè)) is to leave home and look for jobs in one of Britain’s big 6. . Every day hundreds of young people arrive in London from other parts of Britain, looking for jobs. Some find jobs and stay. 7. don’t, and go home again, or join the unemployed(失業(yè)者) in London.
When you read the newspapers and watch the news on television, it’s 8. to get the idea that British young people are all unemployed, angry and in trouble. But that’s not true. Three quarters of them do more or less what their parents did. They do their best at school, find some kinds of jobs in the end, and get 9. in their early twenties. They get on well with their parents, and enjoy their family life. After all, if they don’t, they 10. be British, will they
