Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motorway. But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners(n.定期班机,客机)get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and mere crowded. If one huge airliner struck into another in midair,600 lives could be lost.
From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London Heathrow may deal with2500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.
Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets(n. 喷气式飞机)were flying towards the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided (vt. 避免；回避)each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every, year.

[ ]
A．airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier
B．a pilot does not always hear a controller' s order
C．a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes
D．airports can hardly serve the growing number of air- planes
(4)The example in the passage is to show that________.

B．air traffic controllers should pay much attention to a- voiding accidents

In many countries today, laws protect wildlife. In India, the need for such protection was realized centuries ago.
About 300 BC an Indian writer described forests that were somewhat like national parks today. The game of killing beasts was carefully supervised (vt. 监督; 管理; 负责). Some animals were fully protected. Within the forest. nobody was allowed to cut timber (wood for building), burn wood for charcoal (n. 炭, 木炭), or catch animals for their furs. Animals that became dangerous to human visitors were caught or killed outside the park so that other animals would not become uneasy.
The need for wildlife protection is greater now than ever before. About a thousand species of animals are in danger of extinction, and the rate at which they are being destroyed has increased. With mammals (n. 哺乳动物), for example, the rate of extinction was about one species every fifty years from AD 1 to 1800, but now it is about one species every year. Everywhere, men are trying to solve the problem of protecting wildlife caring for the rapid growth of the world’s population.

2．Dangerous animals were caught or killed outside the park so as to ________ .
[ ]
A．keep human visitors safe
B．free the rest of the animals from worry or fear
C．supply other animals with more food
D．control the number of wild animals
3．The underlined word“extinction”probably means ________ .
[ ]
4．The example of man's connection with wildlife protection can date back to ________ .
[ ]
A．the third century
B．more than 2000 year s ago
C．AD 1
D．over 300 years ago
