Please use a sensible subject line. In short, you need help(). Most R functions have a section called "Examples" in the help file. E.g. help("plot") or even help("help"). Granted this will give you only snippets of a whole analysis but it is helpful nonetheless.
Since you have already identified the datasets you have, see the help section of help("AirPassengers") for a more complete analysis. Perhaps articles and books listed under "Contributed" and "Publications" under Documentations tab of www.R-project.org might help.
