We arrived in Naples on the Sunday
night, and spent the night on the ship. The next morning we went ashore. We
weren't leaving again till six o'clock that evening, so we had the day to see
Naples. Well, we walked around the streets a bit, and looked at this and that.
And then I wanted to see the ruins of Pompeii, of course. I saw
a taxi, and we stopped it, and asked the taxi-driver to take us to Pompeii. He
said something, and shook his head. We couldn't understand what was going on.
You know what taxi-drivers are alike, all over the world. Eitherit's too far, or
too close, or the wrong dis- trict, or they're just going home to dinner, or
they don't know the place you are talking about, or they can only take you there
if you pay a special rate. I tried to find out what the reason was this time,
but I' m afraid my Italian isn't as good as it should be.
Anyway, in the end he agreed to take us and finally we got there. He was
right all along, though. Pompeii was closed. Apparent- ly everything in Italy
closes on Mondays. It was a pity, because we only had Monday there, but never
mind, I thought, we'll go some- where else instead. "Take us to see Vesuvius,
then," I said. The taxi-driver shook his head again. "Don't tell me the
volcanoes are closed as well," I asked. He nodded vigorously.
Apparently they were.

单选题Frank Webb, an American pilot who first flew a glider at the age of 14, made his first flight alone on his 16th birthday and got his commercial pilot"s license(执照) on his 18th birthday.
After
serving
in the U. S. Navy (海军) for 20 years, being a Boeing flight instructor, and working with Alaska Airlines for more than three years, Webb signed a contract with Shenzhen Airlines last May to captain domestic routes in China. Though he is an experienced pilot, he feels the same nervousness as he did on his first flight.
Captain Webb said that the "Sept. 11" incident did not have a direct influence on his decision to move to China to work. "Safety is in fact tighter in the United States and I am not worried about a terrorist attack," he said. "The main reason I came to China was that my children would have a chance to see the world and experience international living."
Webb has not experienced any in-flight emergencies (紧急情况) during his term in China although he said the weather here was generally more changeable than in the United States. "The weather changes tend to be great from north to south. We may be flying in a snow storm in Harbin, and then later that same day we may be flying through a tropical rain shower approaching Shenzhen," Webb said.
While Webb had more flexibility(灵活性) to deal with the weather in the United States, he said air traffic control in China was more strict and allowed fewer deviations(偏高).
Speaking of planes often being late in China, Webb said that in America, being late was one of the few things that would get him in trouble. "In China, on the other hand, it seems there are many things that can get you in trouble with the boss, but being late is not one of them." Webb does everything in his power to keep his flights on schedule.
"They provide really excellent service during flights. Western flight attendants just serve passengers. But the Chinese attendants will also check on the crew to see if we need anything," Webb said.
