   You may have traveled by airplane before, but do you know how these big"birds" fly in the sky?

     This month, a group of US middle school students visited Mitchell International

Airport. They got the chance to see how pilots work and learn things behind thescenes.

     The students are taking part in the project Be the Spark Education Tours. Theygo to factories, IT companies, newspaper offices and other places to see what jobs arereally about. This time, they got the chance to fly.

    "It is really cool to see the pilots and to actually look inside the scenes,"saidseventh-grader Kyra Aguillard.

     Along with other students, Aguillard went through security checkpoints(安全检查处), and even went into the cockpit(驾驶舱). The buttons(开关) in the pilot's room really excited her.

    The 13-year-old girl has made her own decision to be a pilot in the future. During the trip, students were also given talks about how to build a plane and how to make it fly. Although they've all learned the basic theory, this talk was much more

vivid(生动的) and understandable.

     "We wish to offer the students a good chance to see things they are learning in math, science and even in reading class really used in the real world," said Mary Steinbrecher, director of the project,"so they can open their eyes and minds to a Successful  future."
