I knew it was going to be a bad day when, on the way to the airport, the taxi driver told me he was lost.
I had booked my flight over the telephone, so when we finally arrived, I had to rush to the reservation desk to pay for my ticket. The woman at the desk told me that my name was not on the passenger list. It took fifteen minutes to realize that she had spelled my name incorrectly. She gave me the ticket and told me I'd better check in my luggage quickly or I'd miss my night. I was the last person to get on the plane.
I found my seat and discovered that I was sitting next to a four-year old boy who had a cold. I sat down and wondered if anything else could go wrong. I hate flying, especially take-off, but the plane took off and everything seemed to be all right. Then, a few minutes later, there was a funny noise and everything started to shake. I looked out of the window and – oh my God - there was smoke coming out of the wing. All I could think was "The engines are on fire. We are going to crash. I am too young to die,"
Almost immediately, the captain spoke to us in a very calm voice "Ladies and gentlement. This is your captain speaking. We are having a slight technical problem with one of our engines. There is no need to panic. We will have to return to the airport. Please remain seated and keep your seat belts fastened."
A few minutes later, we were coming on to land. The pilot made a perfect landing on
the runway. It was over. We were safe. That day I decided not to fly again. I caught
another taxi and went home. But as I closed the front door. I looked down at my case.
Somehow I had picked up the wrong suitcase.
* Questions:
1/ How long did it take her to get her ticket?
………
2/ Was there nothing wrong with her on the way to the airport?

Spring School is an informal school. It provides classes to disadvantaged children in Ho Chi Minh city.
Around 30 street children live and study at the school and about 250 children with special difficulties from District 1 regularly attend classes.
The Organization for Educational Development co-operated with Spring School to set up English classes in 1998. Dance, theatre, singing and folk music classes were set up a year later. Children from these classes participate in fundraising performances. They raise money to continue their English and performance Arts classes.
Spring School requires volunteers to help organize their fundraising dinner held annually in June. This is an exciting night in which children dance, sing and play music at one of the largest hotels in Ho Chi Minh City. They also need foreign volunteers to contact sponsors and help to expand the school activities.

It is hope that more schools like Spring School will soon be found in other cities in Vietnam.
