Carolyn is writing a report about how the Wright brothers reacted when they achieved the first real flight in a plane.

Which information from “Wilbur and Orville: Men with Wings” could be integrated with the information from “The Inventive Wright Brothers” to achieve this?


A “Bishop Wright looked up from the slip of yellow paper that had just been delivered to him. He was smiling. ‘It’s from Orville,' he said. ‘They flew their airplane. It says here that they made four flights in it!’”

B “Will grinned at them as they puffed across the dune and crowded around him. ‘I’m just fine,’ he said. ‘And, Orv, we did it! I just checked the watch. I was up fifty-nine seconds, and’—he looked back at the starting track—'covered something more than eight hundred feet!’”

C “‘Which of the Wright brothers,’ people sometimes ask, ‘was more responsible for inventing the airplane?’ The brothers would have laughed at such a question. For the answer is: one was as responsible as the other!”

D “After they had their plane built, they decided to take it to Kitty Hawk to test it. ‘The winds there are usually steady at this time of year,’ they said. 'And besides—the sand is soft, if we should have an accident!’”
