Before a new type of airplane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.

The first is called the "tank test". A modem airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure （結(jié)構(gòu)）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 （壓力） on a small window is like a huge foot that is try??ing 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 pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines （發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)） 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.

68. By doing the "tank test", the engineers can find out _______.

       A. the amount of air in the plane

       B. the strength of the plane structure

       C. the pressure inside and outside the plane

       D. the power of the airplane engines

69. What will happen to the plane under the "tank test"?

       A. It will be broken.                     B. It will be made stronger.

       C. It will be filled with water.                   D. It will be tested by pilots,

70. According to the text, why are test flights most dangerous?

       A. The plane may explode in the air.           

       B. The pilot may lose control of the plane.

       C. The engines may be damaged.              

       D. Too much air may get into the plane.

71. What might be the most suitable title for the text?

       A. Two Important Tests on Airplanes

       B. The Importance of Flying Safely

       C. The Danger of Testing Airplanes

       D. How Airplanes Are Made and Tested

Dear Editor,
I have just returned home after studying for a year in Germany. But it seems that my parents don’t understand me now. They expect me to be the same person I was before I went abroad, but I’m not! Why can’t they let me be myself?
Jimmy
Hi, Jimmy,
As far as I know, people who have lived abroad often find that the adjustment （調(diào)整） to returning home is more difficult than their adjustment to living in a foreign culture. Why? We expect to have some problems when we go to a new place, speak a different language and learn the rules of a different culture ... But home? ... we know that place!
Your parents expect that the same person who boarded the airplane one year ago will be returning. Especially if they have never been abroad themselves, your parents probably won’t understand the changes that living abroad can cause in a person. On the other hand, you may have maintained (保持) an ideal mental image of your loved ones while abroad, an image that is broken into pieces when you return.
Remember you have been living a different lifestyle in your host country, and you have probably become very independent while staying there alone. Now that you’re home, you will be expected to conform （順應(yīng)） again to the lifestyle of your family. As a result, you may be upset about your parents’ involvement in your life.
Communication is the key to overcoming this problem. Tell your parents how you are feeling. Share with them information about cultural re-entry（重歸）, and ask them to be patient. This does not mean that you have to forget your experience and give up everything you’ve learned! Learn to find a balance between the old and new, just as you did when first adjusting to your host country’s culture.
【小題1】What is Jimmy’s main purpose in writing the letter?

A．To criticize his parents.
B．To ask for advice about his studies.
C．To complain about his parents.
D．To ask for help.
【小題2】What does the editor think of Jimmy’s problem?
A．It’s unusual.B．It’s normal. C．It’s serious.D．It’s interesting.
【小題3】The editor thinks that both Jimmy and his parents ______.
A．have changed in the past year
B．have unrealistic expectations of each other
C．need to behave like they did before
D．need to find a balance between the good and bad
【小題4】The author suggests that ______ would help solve Jimmy’s problem.
A．patience and trust
B．patience and politeness
C．better communication between family members
D．a(chǎn) deeper understanding of the host country’s culture
