You never see him, but they're with you every time you fly. They record where you are going, how fast you're traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. They're known as the black box.
When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for identifying what went wrong. So when a French submarine (潛水艇) detected the device's homing signal five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed.
In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would track basic information like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. commercial flights by 1960. Early models often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the device was completely redesigned and moved to the back of the plane – the area least subject to impact – from its original position in the landing wells (起落架艙). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never actually black, be painted orange or yellow to aid visibility.
Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which tracks pilots' conversations, and a flight-data recorder, which monitors fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircraft's final moments. Placed in an insulated (隔絕的) case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can resist massive force and temperatures up to 2,000℉. When submerged, they're also able to emit signals from depths of 20,000 ft. Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1,2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say they're still likely to turn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one plane's black boxes were never recovered.
【小題1】What does the author say about the black box?

A．It ensures the normal functioning of an airplane.
B．The idea for its design comes from a comic book.
C．Its ability to resist disasters is incredible.
D．It is an indispensable device on an airplane.
【小題2】 What information could be found from the black box on the Yemeni airliner?
A．Data for analyzing the cause of the crash.
B．The total number of passengers on board.
C．The scene of the crash and extent of the damage.
D．Homing signals sent by the pilot before the crash.
【小題3】Why was the black box redesigned in 1965?
A．New materials became available by that time.
B．Too much space was needed for its installation.
C．The early models often got damaged in the crash.
D．The early models didn't provide the needed data.
【小題4】 Why did the Federal Aviation Authority require the black boxes be painted orange or yellow?
A．To distinguish them from the colour of the plane.
B．To caution people to handle them with care.
C．To make them easily identifiable.
D．To conform to international standards.
【小題5】What do we know about the black boxes from Air France Flight 447?
A．There is still a good chance of their being recovered.
B．There is an urgent need for them to be reconstructed.
C．They have stopped sending homing signals.
D．They were destroyed somewhere near Brazil.

The Convention(公約)concerning the protection of world cultural and natural heritage appeared from a need to call for international cooperation to protect the world's natural and scenic areas and historic sites for present and the future generations.

In 1959 there was international concern over the flooding of the Abu Simbel temples, a treasure of ancient Egyptian civilization, to build the Aswan High Dam in Egypt. Through an international campaign by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) on the request of Egypt and Sudan, resources were found to move the temples to a new site. In 1965,a conference at the White House in Washington DC, USA called for a "World Heritage Trust" and international cooperation to protect "the world's superb natural and scenic areas and historic sites for the present and the future". In 1969, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) developed similar proposals for its members .Therefore, the Convention was adopted by the General Conference of UNESCO in 1972. By regarding heritage as both cultural and natural, the Convention reminds us of the ways in which people interact with nature , and of the basic need to keep the balance between the two.

The Convention identifies the natural or cultural sites on the World Heritage List, and sets out their role in protecting them .Although the emphasis has been on sites and natural features of "outstanding universal value", each country promises not only to conserve the World Heritage sites situated in its country, but also to protect and conserve its cultural and natural heritage.

There is also a "List of World Heritage in Danger" which are sites threatened by serious and specific dangers caused by changes in the use or ownership of the land , wars or natural disasters.

1.What is the purpose of the World Heritage Convention according to the passage?

A．To call for international cooperation to help poor people.

B．To protect the world's natural and cultural heritage.

C．To save the natural resouces for next generation in the world.

D．To raise money for the endangered heritage in the world.

2.What can we infer from the second paragraph in the passage?

A．The history of the UNESCO is very long.

B．The World Heritage Convention is not accepted by people.

C．The Abu Simbel temples in Egypt are moved to a new site.

D．The adoption of the World Heritage Convention takes al long time.

3.The last two paragraphs mainly tell us __________.

A．the detailed purpose of the World Heritage Convention

B．how to make a list of world heritage in danger

C．how to make a world heritage list

D．the importance of making two lists

4.Which of the following has the same meaning as the underlined word "conserve"?

A．Pretend.          B．Prevent.          C．Preserve.         D．Prepare.

5.According to Paragraph 4, there are many sites in danger for reasons EXCEPT________.

A．a(chǎn)buse of land      B．conflicts           C．lack of money      D．natural disasters
