   The plane journey from Papa Westray to Westray in the Orkney Islands takes just 96 seconds, covering a distance of little over a mile. Six teenagers are to take the Loganair service to Westray Junior High after the local ferry (渡輪) service stopped. They are all aged 13-14 and will be flown to and from school until the end of the year when the ferry is scheduled to return.

   Papa Westray had a population of just 70 and no secondary school. Westray, home to more than 600 residents, has around 70 pupils at the Junior High and nine full-time teachers. The school provides education to Standard Grade level but pupils choosing to study for their Highers must travel to the Orkney capital Kirkwall.

   The students will fly to Westray each Tuesday and stay with host families for two nights before catching a return flight on Thursday. Loganair operating the eight-seater service has changed its schedule to ensure the children get to school on time. The company says the flight, with an average flight time of 96 seconds, is the shortest in the world.

   Jonathan Hinkles, the commercial director, said, “While it is a popular tourist route for many visitors to Scotland, it’s also an important lifeline to those residents who live, work or do business in the Orkneys and it will make all the difference to ensuring those children who live on Papa Westray can continue their schooling throughout winter.” Willie McEwen, acting head teacher at Westray Junior High, said, “we are delighted that Loganair has come forward with this solution. Our children will enjoy the flying especially as, at this time of the year, it can be quite dangerous on the boat. ”

The six students can get to school in less than a minute sometimes.

Westray has a small population though big in size.

84. What can we learn about Papa Westray from the passage?

  A. It is very poor.                                      B. It is located in Scotland.

  C. It doesn’t have any school.                     D. It will have no ferry in the future.

85. How does Willie McEwen seem to feel about the flying?

  A.       Surprised.            B. Worried.                 C. Satisfied.                  D. Disappointed.
