| In the past, all letters were sent by train or by ship. Now most letters still go by ship or by train, but some are sent by air. You send a letter by air so that your friend may receive it sooner. A letter takes about twelve days to go from England to India by train and by ship. A letter can get to India by air in five days now, but soon the time may be made shorter. At first, people were afraid to send letters by air. They thought that the plane may fall and their friends may not receive the letters. So they sent two letters, one by air and the other by train or ship. They wanted to make sure that the letter would be received. Planes are now almost as safe and sure as trains or ships. More and more letters are sent by air. |
