    Before a new type airplane goes service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more of into important than the others.
    The first is called the “tank test”. A modern airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin of the plane inside. The pressure(压力)on a small window is like a huge foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane would explode in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, the plane is lowered into a huge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. The pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.
    The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flights in the air. The test must find out exactly what happens when the engines(发动机) are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot’s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again. These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.

    Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you're a thin 14-year-old.That was me in 1940-the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City's Pennsyl-vania Railway Station.
    After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them, thinking, "Everyone else is doing it."
    When I got home that night, I told my dad what I wanted to do." You give an honest day's work," he said, looking at me straight in the eye."  They're paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that."
    I followed my dad's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
    Of all the jobs I've had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with people who steal. If one of my players were caught stealing, he'd be gone.
    Whether you're on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can't trust one another, there's going to be trouble

      4. D.
        They were all thin, young boys
    2. 2.

      What does the father's advice imply?

        Don't believe them if they are paying you more
      3. C.
        Don't follow others to overcharge the passengers
      4. D.
        It is difficult to work hard and live as an honest boy

    Paula Radcliffe, chasing (角逐) a third London marathon title (马拉松冠军), says she has become a stronger person after her terrible experience at the 2004 Athens Games.
    Radcliffe, who failed to complete the Olympic marathon and the 10,000m last August, said: “Athens made me a stronger person and it made me care less about criticism.”
    “In the past I wanted to please everyone, but now I am going to listen even more to the people around me.”
    She didn’t care about criticism made at the weekend by Liz McColgan, who felt Radcliffe should have rested and let her body recover after her failure in Athens.
    “Liz is someone I look up to but she hasn’t spoken to me since last year and if she really cared for me, I'm sure she would have contacted me.”
    Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens.
    “In New York I wasn’t in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race.”      Radcliffe insisted her only goal in Sunday’s race would be winning a third title and not chasing world records.
    However, Radcliffe has not ruled out (排除) in the future chasing her "final" world record time and questioned sayings that marathon runners have the ability in their career to produce only four or five world-class times.
    “I don't think that—although I can't put a number on it,” said Radcliffe. “That changes from person to person.”
    Radcliffe is sure she can better her winning London 2003 performance at some point in the future. Following a successful three-month training period in the United States, the 31-year-old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later.
    Radcliffe clocked a time of 2:18:56 in her first 42.2-kilometer race three years ago.
    Afterwards she set a "mixed course" mark of 2:17:18 five months later in Chicago before lowering that to a time of 2:15:25 in the 2003 London event

    1. 1.

      Radcliffe’s failure in Athens made her       

      1. A.
        develop respect for Liz
      2. B.
        love people around her more
      3. C.
        rest for five months
      4. D.
        face criticism calmly
    2. 2.

      Which of the following is true according to the passage?

      1. A.
        Radcliffe broke the world record in the New York City marathon
      2. B.
        Radcliffe didn't fully recover before the New York City marathon
      3. C.
        Radcliffe won her first marathon title in the New York City marathon
      4. D.
        Radcliffe had a 3-month training before the New York City marathon
    3. 3.

      By saying “I can't put a number on it,” Radcliffe means she’s not sure       

      1. A.
        if she has the ability to set a new world record
      2. B.
        if she can win another race though she has won many times
      3. C.
        how many times a marathon runner can set the world record
      4. D.
        if she has the ability to produce four or five world-class times
    4. 4.

      What can we learn from Radcliffe's story?

      1. A.
        Practice makes perfect
      2. B.
        Well begun is half done
      3. C.
        A friend in need is a friend indeed
      4. D.
        Where there is a will there is a way

    Most people who experience bad service while traveling, shopping, or dining out do no complain. They accept bad services or products without making a sound. Why? Many feel complaining won’t do any good. In fact, they’re wrong, because companies don’t want their customers unhappy. Not sure you can do it? Here are some ways to use when things go wrong.
    1.If you have a complaint, do something about it right away. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to get your complaint solved.
    2.First, complain to the servers. If they are not going to solve your problem, then ask politely to speak to a manager. And if that doesn’t work, you can always request to speak to the manager’s manager!
    3.Demand a discount(折扣). Let’s say you were promised a hotel room with an ocean view, but got a view of a brick wall instead; if you were promised a seat in the front of a plane, but got a seat in the back. You should do something about both of these situations. Ask a special discount.
    4.Don’t be passive. Offer ways you think the company can satisfy you.
    5.Insist on the price you were told. If you are refused, get a manager’s name and telephone number, and promise to follow up with a letter and a telephone call.
    6.If all else fails, wait until you get home and take action. Call the company’s head office, and speak to the most powerful person possible. Then follow up your call with a letter of complaint. If necessary, call the customer protection office in your city and complain.

    1. 1.

      1. A.
        they think complaining doesn’t work
      2. B.
        they consider it wrong to complain
      3. C.
        they don’t want to waste their time
      4. D.
        they don’t want to become unpopular
    2. 2.

      To complain about something, you should________.

      1. A.
        wait until you come back home
      2. B.
        prepare for a long time
      3. C.
        talk to the manager directly
      4. D.
        try to solve the problem actively
    3. 3.

      What might be the best title for the text?

      1. A.
        Get what you should get
      2. B.
        Complain as you please
      3. C.
        Take action to deal with problems

    Do you know how to prepare for and survive a major earthquake? According to Department of Conservation scientists, it is important to have the right answer to that question.
    How to Be Prepared
    Electricity, water, gas and telephones may not be working after an earthquake. The police and fire departments are likely to be tied up. You should be prepared to fend for yourself at least three days,preferably for a week. You’ll need food, water and so on. It’s also a good idea to decide ahead of time how and where your family will reunite if separated during a quake. You might choose an out-of-the-area friend or relative that family members can call to check on you.
    ________
    If you’re indoors, stay there. Get under a desk or table. The kitchen is a particularly dangerous spot. If you’re in an office building, stay away from windows and outside walls and do not use the elevator. If you’re outside, get into the open. Stay clear of buildings, power lines or anything else that could fall on you. If you’re driving, move the car out of traffic and stop. Avoid parking under or on bridges or overpasses.
    After an Earthquake
    Check for fire. If you smell gas, shut off the main gas valve(阀). If there’s sign of damage to electricial wiring, shut off the power at the control box. If the phone is working, only use it in case of emergency(紧急情况). Avoid driving if possible to keep the streets clear for emergency vehicles. Be careful that things may fall out of cupboards when the door is opened, and also that chimneys can be weakened and fall with just a touch. Listen to the radio for important information and instructions. Remember that aftershocks, sometimes large enough to cause damage in their own right, generally follow large quakes. If you leave home, leave a message telling your friends and family your location.

    Bend over, take a deep breath and drink some water! This is just one of the hundreds of tips you might get if you have the hiccups(打嗝). Hiccups are so mysterious. We really don’t know why they start and why they stop.
    Everyone has a favorite cure for a case of the hiccups. Some people think that a good scare is necessary to get well. Others eat a teaspoon of sugar. Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it.
    An American man named Jack O’Leary claimed to have hiccupped 160 million times over a period of eight years. He tried 60,000 cures, but none of them worked. Finally he prayed to Saint Jude, the saint of Hopeless cases, and his hiccupping stopped immediately.
    It took a British plumber eight months to cure his hiccups. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well. He tried them all, but the hiccups continued. Finally, he drank a “secret’’mixture someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone. Why did these cures work for these two men? No one really knows. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea. Hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.

    1. 1.

      ________might be the best cure for hiccups.

      1. A.
        Special pills

        4 hours
      2. B.
        2 days
      3. C.
        8 months
      4. D.
        8 years
    3. 3.

      1. A.
        We know why the hiccups start, but we don’t know how to stop them.
      2. B.
        Saint Jude is an expert in curing the hiccups.
      3. C.
        The British plumber drank a secret mixture given by an experienced doctor and then became well.
      4. D.
        Some people think that a good scare is a cure for a case of hiccups.
    4. 4.

    Farming is moving indoors, where the sun never shines, where rainfall is irrelevant (无关的) and where the climate is always right. The perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light, temperature，humidity，air quality and nutrition. It could be in a New York high- rise or a complex （建筑群） in the Saudi desert. It may be an answer to the world’s food problems.
    The world already is having trouble feeding itself. Half the people on Earth live in cities, and nearly half of those – about 3 billion – are hungry or ill–fed. Food prices, currently increasing, are badly affected by dryness, floods and the cost of energy required to plant, harvest and transport it. And prices will only get more unstable. Climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain. Farmers in many parts of the world already are using water available to the last drop. And the world is getting more crowded: by mid-century, the global population will grow from 6.8 billion to 9 billion.
    To feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness, or finding ways to greatly increase crop output.
    Gertjan Meeuws and three other Dutch bioengineers grow vegetables and house plants in closed and regulated environments. In their research station, water flows into the pans when needed, and the temperature is kept constant. Lights go on and off, creating “day” and “night”, but according to the rhythm of the plant.
    Meeuws says a building of 100 square meters and layers of plants could provide a daily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables for the entire population of Ken Bosch, about 140,000 people. Their idea isn’t to grow foods that require much space, like corn or potatoes.
    Sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful. Plants need only specific wavelengths of light to grow. Their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions. They use about 90 percent less water than outdoor agriculture. And city farming means producing food near the consumer, so there’s on need to transport it long distances.

    1. 1.

      According to the text, Gertjan Meeuws’ farming _______.

      1. A.
        can be used for corn production
      2. B.
        is much like greenhouse farming
      3. C.
        is adaptable to any environment
      4. D.
        uses more water than outdoor farming
    2. 2.

      What is the second paragraph mainly about ?

      1. A.
        The effect of climate
      2. B.
        The hungry people in cities.
      3. C.
        The world’s food problem.
      4. D.
        The world’s increasing population.
    3. 3.

      What is the purpose of the text ?

      1. A.
        To compare traditional and indoor farming.
