阅读下面短文，然后根据短文内容判断正(T)误(F)

James was invited to go to New York to help them. He lived in Washington, which is an hour away from New York by air. The plane was going to take off at 8∶30 in the morning. So he had to be at the airport at about 7∶30. He ordered a taxi for 6∶30 and went to sleep. He forgot to mind the clock, and it stopped after midnight. The taxi driver got up very late the next morning.

James woke with the feeling that something was wrong. He looked at his clock. It stood there silently with the hands pointing to ten past twelve. He turned on the radio and knew it was ten. He was late for the plane.

He was just preparing his coffee when the radio sent out another news, “Here is a report about a plane crash near Washington airport. A Boeing 707 fly to New York crashed shortly after taking off this morning. Plane number 2234…” James suddenly turned pale（苍白）.“My plane,” he said loudly. “If I haven't been late, I'd have been on the plane!”
