Question

When I looked     the plane, I could see that nearly all the passengers were worried and afraid. The future seemed terrible and many were        if they would make it through the storm.

Then , I       saw a little girl. It seemed that the storm meant      to her. She sat on her seat reading a book. Sometimes she closed her eyes, then she would read again, with no       or fear in her eyes. When the other passengers were scared(惊恐的) half to death, that child was completely calm and       . I couldn’t believe my eyes.

When the plane finally reached New York, I was not surprised to       that all the passengers were hurrying to come out. I stopped and spoke to the girl whom I had       for such a long time. I asked        she had not been afraid.

The child replied, “My daddy is the        , and he is taking me home.”
