Question

【题目】 For many years, man couldn’t fly. Birds can fly with their wings. It’s very easy for them to fly but it was very difficult for man because man hasn’t got wings.

The first plane was made of pieces of wood and some other things. Two brothers, Wilbur and Orville Wright, built it.

When the two brothers were still very young, they often watched birds flying in the sky. When they were older, they started to “make the thing that can fly”.

In 1903, Wright brothers did their flying test at Kitty Hawk. The date was December 17. The time was the middle of winter. It was fine that day and the sky was clear.

At half past ten in the morning, the two brothers began their flying test. Orville lay on the bottom wing of his plane and started to fly. The plane went higher and higher into the sky!
