Doctor are known to be terrible pilots. They don't listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn't realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather. I learned about crew resource management (機(jī)組資源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.
I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot - and my boss - so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I've used it in the operating room ever since.
CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they're not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them , someday someone will keep me from “landing gear up”.
【小題1】What dose the author say about doctors in general?

A.They like flying by themselves.
B.They are unwilling to take advice.
C.They pretend to be good pilots.
D.They are quick learners of CRM.
【小題2】The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when_______.
A.he saved the plane by speaking up
B.he was in charge of a flying task
C.his boss landed the plane too late
D.his boss operated on a patient
【小題3】In the last paragraph”landing gear up” probably means ______.
A.following flying requirements.
B.overreacting to different opinions.
C.listening to what fellow doctors say
D.making a mistake that may cost lives
【小題4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying Safe
B.Flying Makes Me a Better Doctor
C.The Making of a Good Pilot
D.A Pilot-Tumed Doctor

Anger at the practice of demanding dowries,which can lead to violence against brides,has prompted a takeoff of “Angry Birds” called “Angry Brides” that aims to highlight the illegal practice still prevalent in many South Asian countries.

Dowries—such as jewelry,clothes,cars and money—are traditionally given by the bride’s family to the groom and his parents to ensure she is taken care of in her new home.

The custom was outlawed more than five decades ago.But it is still widely practiced,with the groom’s family demanding even more money after marriage,leading to mental and physical annoyance that can drive the woman to suicide.

To play the gameusers have to try and hit three dodging grooms—a pilota builder and a doctor.There are a variety of weapons to choose from,including a frying pan,broomsticktomato and loafer.

Each groom has a price tag,starting at 1.5 million rupees($29,165)Every time the player hits a groom,his value decreases and money is added to the player’s Anti?Dowry Fundwhich is saved posted on their Facebook page.

“Since we launched the game last week,more than 270,000 people have liked the app.Both men and women seem to be playing it,” said Bhamidi.

1.What caused “Angry Brides” to appear online?

BAnger at the practice of demanding dowries.

CThe bride’s giving a great many dowries.

DThe popularity of “Angry Birds” online.
