Write a brief summary of the story "12 Walked Away."
Answers will vary but should be similar to this: |
The plane with Captain Tate and eleven passengers, on the way from Vienna to Italy,crashed in the middle of the Alps, on a snow field. The crew couldn't navigate the plane due to overcast that day. The passenger's injuries were minor, but they were wondering how they would get back to civilization. They could only communicate with others by picking up and sending out signals with the plane's radio. The survivors of the crash, along with the captain's commands, found fuel, conserved rations, and kept hope alive. After four nights inside the wrecked plane, they were spotted from the air and was rescued by a large group of mountaineers the next day. |
