Amelia Earhart was born in Kansas in 1897. Thirty one years later, she received a phone call that would change her life. She was invited to become the first woman passenger to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a plane. The flight took more than 20 hours – about three times longer than it routinely takes today to cross the Atlantic by plane. Earhart was twelve years old before she ever saw an airplane, and she didn’t take her first flight until 1920. But she was so thrilled by her first experience in a plane that she quickly began to take flying lessons. She wrote, “As soon as I left the ground, I knew I myself had to fly.”

After that flight Earhart became a media sensation. She was given a ticker tape parade down Broadway in New York and even president Coolidge called to congratulate her. Because her record – breaking career and physical appearance were similar to pioneering pilot and American hero Charles Lindbergh, she earned the nickname “Lady Lindy.” She wrote a book about her flight across the Atlantic, called 20 Hrs, 40 Min.

Earhart continued to break records, and also polised her skills as a speaker and writer, always advocating women’s achievements, especially in aviation. Her next goal was to achieve a transatlantic crossing alone. In 1927 Charles Lindbergh became the first person to make a solo nonstop flight across the Atlantic. Five years later, Earhart became the first woman to repeat that feat. Her popularity grew even more and she was the undisputed queen of the air. She then wanted to fly around the world, and in June 1973 she left Miami with Fred Noonan as her navigator. No one knows why she left behind important communication and navigation instruments. Perhaps it was to make room for additional fuel for the long flight. The pair made it to New Guinea in 21 days and then left for Howland Island, a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The last communication from Earhart and Noonan was on July 2, 1937 with a nearby Coast Guard ship. The United States Navy conducted a massive search for more than two week but no trace of the plane or its passengers was ever found. Many people believe they got lost simply ran out of fuel and died.

It may be inferred from the passage that Amelia Earhart __________.

A. would have continued to seek new adventures and records to break if she had not died at the age of 39 

B. would not have developed her love of flying if she had not been invited to become the first woman passenger to cross the Atlantic in a plane 

C. became too confident and took too many risks to be able to live to old age 

D. did not want to return to the Unitted States

Dịch đoạn văn:

Amelia Earhart sinh ra ở Kansas vào năm 1897. Ba mươi năm sau, cô nhận được một cuộc gọi điện thoại mà có thể thay đổi cuộc đời của cô. Cô được mời trở thành người phụ nữ đầu tiên đi ngang qua Đại Tây Dương bằng máy bay. Chuyến bay mất hơn 20 giờ - khoảng ba lần so với ngày nay thường xuyên đi qua Đại Tây Dương bằng máy bay. Earhart được 12 tuổi trước khi cô ấy nhìn thấy chiếc máy bay, và cô ấy đã không bay chuyến bay đầu tiên của mình cho đến năm 1920. Nhưng cô ấy rất kinh ngạc khi trải nghiệm đầu tiên của cô ấy trong một chiếc máy bay mà cô ấy nhanh chóng bắt đầu học lái máy bay. Cô viết: "Ngay khi tôi rời khỏi mặt đất, tôi biết mình phải bay."

Sau chuyến bay đó, Earhart đã trở thành một phương tiện truyền thông cảm giác. Cô đã được trao một cuộc diễu hành băng rôn trên sân khấu Broadway ở New York và thậm chí cả Tổng thống Coolidge đã kêu gọi chúc mừng cô. Bởi vì sự nghiệp kỷ lục và sự xuất hiện của cô ấy giống như phi công tiên phong và anh hùng người Mỹ Charles Lindbergh, cô đã có biệt danh là "Lady Lindy". Cô đã viết một cuốn sách về chuyến bay của mình qua Đại Tây Dương, gọi là 20 giờ, 40 phút.

Earhart tiếp tục phá kỷ lục, và cũng trau dồi kỹ năng của cô như là một diễn giả và nhà văn, luôn ủng hộ những thành tựu của phụ nữ, đặc biệt là trong lĩnh vực hàng không. Mục tiêu tiếp theo của cô là đạt được một mục tiêu xuyên Đại Tây Dương. Mục tiêu tiếp theo của cô là đạt được một mình vượt qua xuyên Đại Tây Dương. Năm 1927 Charles Lindbergh trở thành người đầu tiên thực hiện chuyến bay thẳng một mình trên khắp Đại Tây Dương. Năm năm sau, Earhart trở thành người phụ nữ đầu tiên lặp lại thành công đó. Sự nổi tiếng của cô càng tăng lên và cô là nữ hoàng không thể cãi được của không gian. Sau đó cô ấy muốn bay vòng quanh thế giới, và vào tháng 6 năm 1937, cô rời khỏi Miami với Fred Noonan làm người dẫn đường của cô. Không ai biết tại sao cô lại để lại các công cụ truyền thông và điều hướng quan trọng. Có lẽ nó là để làm cho chỗ cho nhiên liệu bổ sung cho các chuyến bay dài. Hai người đã đến New Guinea trong 21 ngày và sau đó rời đảo Howland, một hòn đảo nhỏ ở giữa Thái Bình Dương. Thông tin cuối cùng từ Earhart và Noonan vào ngày 2 tháng 7 năm 1937 với một chiếc tàu Coast Guard gầ.n đó. Hải quân Hoa Kỳ tiến hành cuộc tìm kiếm lớn hơn hai tuần nhưng không có dấu vết của chiếc máy bay hay hành khách của nó đã từng được tìm thấy. Nhiều người tin rằng họ đã bị mất và chỉ cần chạy ra khỏi nhiên liệu và chết

She was invited to become the first woman passenger to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a plane. The flight took more than 20 hours – about three times longer than it routinely takes today to cross the Atlantic by plane. Earhart was twelve years old before she ever saw an airplane, and she didn’t take her first flight until 1920. But she was so thrilled by her first experience in a plane that she quickly began to take flying lessons. She wrote, “As soon as I left the ground, I knew I myself had to fly.”

After that flight Earhart became a media sensation. She was given a ticker tape parade down Broadway in New York and even president Coolidge called to congratulate her. Because her record – breaking career and physical appearance were similar to pioneering pilot and American hero Charles Lindbergh, she earned the nickname “Lady Lindy.” She wrote a book about her flight across the Atlantic, called 20 Hrs, 40 Min.

Earhart continued to break records, and also polised her skills as a speaker and writer, always advocating women’s achievements, especially in aviation. Her next goal was to achieve a transatlantic crossing alone. In 1927 Charles Lindbergh became the first person to make a solo nonstop flight across the Atlantic. Five years later, Earhart became the first woman to repeat that feat. Her popularity grew even more and she was the undisputed queen of the air. She then wanted to fly around the world, and in June 1973 she left Miami with Fred Noonan as her navigator. No one knows why she left behind important communication and navigation instruments. Perhaps it was to make room for additional fuel for the long flight. The pair made it to New Guinea in 21 days and then left for Howland Island, a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The last communication from Earhart and Noonan was on July 2, 1937 with a nearby Coast Guard ship. The United States Navy conducted a massive search for more than two week but no trace of the plane or its passengers was ever found. Many people believe they got lost simply ran out of fuel and died.
