    　　Welcome to Ontario Parks, a new body set up to manage Ontario's most treasured special places, the parks in our area.

    　　We are entering a very exciting year for Ontario Parks. Last season we asked some 15 000 visitors in 45 parks how we could im-prove our programs and services. We also looked at the thousands of comment cards we received. As a result, new comfort stations have been added, the number of campsites has been increased, and we've made other fa-cility (设施) improvements. In addition, we'll be providing more educational programs. This year, for example, more than 40 parks will offer special day and evening activities to excite your curiosity about nature and history.

    　　Through the Internet, you'll be happy to know that you can now explore all 270 parks on line. Let your family plan your park vaca-tion, study a map or canoe routes, listen to the call of a loon or find up-to-date informa-tion about programs, services and facilities.

    　　The days of multi-layer air tickets appear numbered, as the China Air Transport Association (CATA) has stopped providing paper tickets and instructed sellers to issue e-tickets. The decision is in line with an International Air Transport Association (IATA) move that requires its 261 member airlines to abandon paper tickets by the end of 2007. E-tickets will be issued once the current batch of paper tickets has been used up. The change currently only applies to domestic flights. “We haven't received notice from the CATA that paper tickets for international flights will be stopped, ”said a ticket agent in Beijing.

    　　Customers will book tickets through airlines or ticket agents as usual, and will be given a booking reference. They will then be able to use automatic check-in facilities at airports, and receive an invoice (发票) for reimbursement (报销凭证). They can also check in as normal at the counter. Special passengers like infants and those flying to airports without automatic check-in machines can still use paper tickets.

    　　The wide use of e-ticketing is expected to lower operational costs, which could lead to lower prices of air tickets, said an expert with the Safety Technology Centre of the General Administration of Civil Aviation. A survey conducted by the civil aviation website, www.CARNOC.com, between August 28 and October 15 showed widespread concern over the new system. Although they had the ability to take part in the online survey,43 percent of the people who answered questions in the survey said they would prefer to receive a paper ticket. While some feel more secure without the worry of a ticket, others said they did not trust sending personal details over the Internet, or worried they would not get reimbursed.

    (1) The underlined phrase “in line with” in the first paragraph probably means________.

    [　　]

    A．in possession of

    B．in agreement with

    C．in aid of

    D．in line for

    (2) Which of the following is a problem brought about by issuing air e-tickets ac-cording to the passage?

    [　　]

    A．It's inconvenient to use the Internet.

    B．It's unsafe to send personal informa-tion through the Internet.

    C．Some people worry that they will not get their tickets.

    D．Some people worry that they can not board the plane on time.

    (3) What would be the best title for the passage?

    [　　]

    A．The Discussion over E-tickets

    B．The Advantages of Issuing Air E-tickets

    C．How to Book Air E-tickets

    D．China to Issue Air E-tickets

         Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by pro- viding clues to who people are, who they
    are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer's back- ground, personality,
    status, mood, and social outlook.
         Since clothes are such an important source of social informa- tion,we can use them to influence people's
    impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is
    likely to occur. An elderly middle-class man or woman may be alienated (疏远) by a young adult who is
    dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person's education, background, or interests.
         People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the
    lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits (套装), including the number of boyfriends they like- ly have had
    and whether they smoke or drink. Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered
    to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conserva- tively. And college students
    who view themselves as taking an active role in their inter-personal relationships say they are concerned about
    the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in
    which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we acted. Perhaps you have
    used clothing to gain confidence when you waited for a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court
    appearance.
         In the workplace, men have long had clear precedents (先例) and role models for achieving success. It has
    been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain aboutthe suitable mixture
    of" masculine" and"feminine" charac- teristics they should express by their professional clothing. The vari- ety
    of clothing choices to women has also been greater than that available for men. Male administrators tend to
    judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" grooming (打扮)-shorter hair, moderate use of make- up, and plain tailored clothing.
    1. According to the passage, the way we dress _____.
    A. provides clues for people who are critical of us
    B. indicates our likes and dislikes in choosing a career
    C. has a direct influence on the way people regard us
    D. is of particular importance when we get on in age
    2. From Paragraph 3 we can see young adults believe certain types of clothing can _____.
    A. change people's conservative attitudes toward their lifestyle
    B. help young people make friends with the opposite sex
    C. make them competitive in the job market
    D. help them achieve success in their interpersonal relationships
    3. Many career women find themselves in difficult situations because _____.
    A. the variety of professional clothing is too wide for them to choose
    B. women are generally thought to be only good at being fashion models
    C. men are more favorably judged for managerial positions
    D. they wonder the extent for them to display the feminine qual- ities through clothing
    4. What is the passage mainly about?
    A. Dressing for effect.
    B. How to dress appropriately.
    C. Managerial positions and clothing.
    D. Dressing for the occasion.

    Just put your special clothes on in the morning and you could jump 3 meters into the air and even carry more than 60 kilograms without getting tired. The walk to school would be very , very easy. Such supercharged clothing is one of the products that could be created using “wearable robotics” technology.

    Designed to improve a person’s senses and skills, the device could be as simple as a hearing aid. Or it could be a full-body suit that senses what you’re going to do, then helps you do it better.

    “A superman suit would be the final result in wearable robotics,” said Francois Pin, head of robotics and energy systems at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory（橡树林国家实验室）, US. While these suits are at least ten years away, in some areas the technology is already in use.

    Researchers are developing artificial arms and legs that allow old, disabled or injured people to move freely. Thus US Army is interested in using wearable robot legs to help soldiers run faster, carry more equipment and be stronger in battle. Jobs that involve lifting heavy loads or saving lives from the rubble of an earthquake could also become much easier.

    A robot is a device that responds to a command. You’re probably with simple robots, such as toy cars or airplanes that respond to buttons you push on a remote control.

    Wearable robotics goes further. Instead of just receiving information through a wire or remote control, the robotic device can send information back to its controller.

    Suppose you wore a sleeve that has sensors where your joints are. Every time you move your arm, the sleeve senses your movements and sends the information to a robot, which then moves its arm just as you did. When the robot hits or touches something, it sends a signal back to the sleeve and you sense the action.

    In this way, scientists are working to wrap the robot around the person. Their goal is to make the sleeve, shoe or suit help you do what you want to do.

    Which of the following can replace the underlined word “ supercharged” in Paragraph one?

    A. expensive     B. overcharged   C. advanced    D. full of electricity

    Products resulting from this wearable robotics technology do not include ___________.

    A. remote controls               B. hearing aids 

     C. wearable robot legs          D. superman suits

    From the passage, we can infer that_______________.

    A. it will be ten years before robotic devices are in use

    B. the wearable robotics technology has been employed in some areas

    C. the robots in the robotic devices will do whatever you want to do

    D. people must become lazier and less healthier in the future
