When you are traveling by plane,there are some passengers you just don't want to have next to you.
A 36
Perhaps you normally like them,but when you are sitting next to them oil a plane it's a different thing. They usually spend all the flight(飛 行) moving around and dropping their toys on the floor,and when they,re drinking their orange juice it ends up on your trousers. 37 So you can't have the little sleep that you were planning.
B Conversation makers
You recognize this type as soon as you sit down. They immediately start talking about the plane,or the weather,or they ask you a personal question. It s very difficult not to talk to these people. 38
C Nervous fliers
These are the people with white faces who sit down and immediately ask for something to drink. Every five minutes they call a flight attendant (服務(wù)員) to ask if there are any problems with the
plane. 39 The best thing to do is to pretend to sleep.
D Space invaders

D. These people are not necessarily very big.
E. Then they decide they want to play with you.

plane lands.

37. E。根據(jù)下一句 So you can t have the little sleep that you were fanning 可知,由于他們又海和你玩耍,因此你睡不成覺。
38 G。根據(jù)該段的小標(biāo)題Conversation makers和上一句It's
very difficult not to talk to these people 可知,由于
身邊坐了一位非常健談的乘客, 你很可能不得不和對方一直聊到飛機(jī)著陸。
39 .C. 根據(jù)該段的小標(biāo)題NervoUS ' fliers 和上一句中的 ask if there are any problems with the plane可知,神經(jīng)緊張的乘客可能會給你講一些空難的故事。

“One thing I enjoy about my job is that I can i work on something that is actually active,” says Game McGimsey,an American volcanologist ( 火山學(xué)家) .Part of his job includes keeping an eye ; on Alaska's many active volcanoes and giving people a heads-up when a volcano might erupt(噴發(fā)) .
Like most jobs in the sciences,volcanology 1requires a lot of education. McGimsey received an undergraduate degree in geology at the University of North Carolina,then landed an zw 紀(jì)(實(shí)習(xí) 期) with a geologist at the (美國地質(zhì)勘探 局) whose area of expertise was volcanoes. After earning a graduate degree at the University of Colorado,McGimsey accepted a job with the USGS and has been with the Alaska Volcano Observatory for 25 years.
Volcanoes can influence the world in ways we might not think about. For example,on Dec. 15,1989,a 747 jetliner (a large airplane) flew through a thick ash (灰) cloud、produced by Mount Redoubt,an Alaskan volcano that hadn,t erupted in 25 years. The ash caused all four engines to die,and the plane5 s electronics went dead.a The plane was within several thousand feet of flying into the mountains below when the pilots gpt 教 couple of the engines restarted and landed safely in Anchorage,” McGimsey says. It cost nearly $80 million to repair the damage to the plane.
Such situations show just how dangerous volcanoes can be. However,volcanologists know the risks and are prepared to protect themselves.
“There is certainly a higher danger level in volcanology than some other jobs”’ McGimsey admits. aWe understand how serious the danger is,and we don't like taking unnecessary chances. We avoid getting too close to an erupting volcano,because it's not worth injury or death simply to get a rock or photograph."
32. Before working for the USGS,McGimsey
A. had been a pilot for 25 years
B. knewnothing about the organization
C. had taught at the University of North Carolina
D. had studied at the University of Colorado
33. On Dec. 15,1989,a 747 jetliner
A. had all its engines restarted
B. flew into a volcano in Europe
C. survived an air accident luckily
D. disappeared in a huge ash cloud
34. What McGimsey says in the last paragraplv
shows his .
A. pride B. carefulness
C. loneliness D. doubt
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Game McGimsey: a man of his word
B. Game McGimsey: a volcano watcher
C. The eruption of Mount Redoubt
D. Lost land of the volcano

These days,many people with cell phones prefer texting to a phone call. And that's creating a communication divide,of sorts — the talkers vs. the texters. Some would argue that' s no big deal.

“The problein is that the conversation isn,t very deep,says Joseph Grenny,co-author of the book Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High.
The problem has been there since wc ve had telephones — probably since the time of a tegrflp(電報(bào)) ,” Grenny says. Texting is just the latest way to do that. Though they may not always ’ be so good at deep conversations themselves, Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones.

科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:
Imagine being at a movie theater. You are watching a movie you* ve been waiting months to see. All of a sudden,a man's cell phone rings. Not only does the man answer it,he keeps talking on the phone for a long time. Situations like this lead many people to support cell blocking vlocking equipment(屏蔽設(shè)備) .While this is quite understandable,it's much fairer and safer to ailow people to use their cell phones in movie theaters.
Using cell phones in movie theaters is a matter of culture. If you look around a theater,most people there are not using phones and are enjoying the film they paid to see. The few bad apples are those that are rude in almost all situations. The ones that shout at waiters and cut in line. Putting in the blocking equipment would punish everyone,not just the impolite,but the well-mannered people as well.
Many theaters already have punishments in place for people who use their cell phones in a troublesome way while in movies. At theaters I have been to,they periodically have workers come in and see if there are rude phone users. If they notice anyone breaking theater rules,they have the power to remove people from the area. That's enough to prevent most movie goers from using cell phones in an unacceptable way.
Another argument against putting in cell phone blocking equipment is emergency situations. There are times when people might be getting a message that requires them to leave the theater. Some of these might be car accidents,births,deaths,or someone getting locked out etc. All of these are situations that would just require someone to immediately leave the theater.
Putting in cell phone blocking equipment would be unfair to those who know how to use their phones politely. The answer to this problem is to make sure rules are followed,not to prevent everyone in the theater from using their cell phones.
6. The man mentioned in Paragraph 1 can be
described as.
A. patient B. impolite
C. friendly D. strict
7. According to the text,the bad-mannered phone
users .
A. are rude not just in movie theaters
B. show no interest in the movies at all
C. welcome the blocking equipment
D. are much worse than a few bad apples
8. In the author,s opinion,the theater rules .
A. are already out of date
B. are proving to be unacceptable
C. can keep the theater in order
D. seldom work for most people
9. What is the author,s attitude to cell phone blocking equipment in movie theaters?
A. He pays little attention to it.
B. He feels doubtful about it.
C. He is uncertain of it.
D. He is against it.
10. Which of the following shows the structure of the text?
