Say hello to hoverbikes – level 1
05-09-2014 15:00
A team of experts work on something really cool. It is a hoverbike. Maybe, it will fly near you soon.
The creator of the hoverbike can fly a helicopter. He knows that helicopters are very complex. They are also not very safe. He wants to make something better. That is why he works on the hoverbike.
The team has a smaller version of it. They are testing it currently. It can fly up to 45 miles per hour (72 kph).
Difficult words: creator (person who creates something and works on something), complex (too complicated), currently (now).
You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.
