一架小型飛機在馬里蘭州的鮑伊墜毀，造成三人死亡。

The plane started in New Jersey. It flew to Maryland. It crashed at 11:30 at night.

該飛機從紐澤西州起飛，飛往馬里蘭州。在深夜 11 點 30 分墜毀。

An iPhone sent a message to the police. The police found the plane in the trees. Three men died. No people on the ground were hurt.

一部 iPhone 發送訊息給警方，警方隨後在樹林中發現了飛機。三名男子死亡，地面上沒有人員受傷。

The plane was from a flight school. The men were probably practicing flying. The police did not say the names of the men.

Two government groups are now looking for the reason for the crash.

目前有兩個政府部門正在調查墜機原因。

Look at these words from the story:

How it works: To tell a story about yesterday or last night, we change the action word.

The Easy Way: Just add -ed (started, crashed).
The Special Way: Some words change completely (fly $\rightarrow$ flew, find $\rightarrow$ found).
