The first warning of the approaching problems came when the sign on the airplane flashed on: “Fasten your seat belts. ” As I looked around the aircraft, it became obvious that many of the passengers were becoming apprehensive. Later, the voice of the announcer said: “We are so sorry that we are unable to serve the meal at this time. The turbulence(骚乱) is still ahead of us. ” And then the storm broke. The ominous(预兆的) cracks of thunder could be heard even above the roar of the engines. Lightening lit up the darkening skies, one moment the airplane was lifted on terrific currents of air; the next, it dropped as if it were about to crash. I looked around the plane, and I could see that nearly all the passengers were upset and alarmed. The future seemed ominous and many were wondering if they would make it through the storm. I suddenly saw a girl to whom the storm meant nothing. She had tucked her feet beneath her as she sat on her seat and was reading a book. Everything within her small world was calm and orderly. Sometimes she closed her eyes, then she would read again; then she would straighten her legs, but worry and fear were not in her world. When all the adults were scared half to death, that marvelous(不可思议的)child was completely composed and unafraid.I could hardly believe my eyes. When the plane finally reached its destination and all the passengers were hurrying to disembark, I lingered(逗留) to speak to the girl whom he had watched for such a long time. Having commented about the storm and behavior of the plane, I asked why she had not been afraid. The sweet child replied, “Sir, my Dad is the pilot, and he is taking me home. ”56.what do you think of the announcers words ?A. humorous B. frighteningC. obvious D. calm57.Why did the people feel scared?A.

This is not surprising as the other 124 islands only total about 3 square miles in land area.Hawaii is home of the worlds most active volcano. Sandy beaches, towering volcanoes, and lush valleys attract thousands of tourists each year to this tropical paradise. Anyone who has ever visited one of the Hawaiian islands will understand why Hawaii is sometimes called the “Paradise of the Pacific. ”The natural beauty of the islands is well known.Hawaii is the most ethnically and racially diverse state of any state in the union, a mix that includes Caucasians, Americans of Japanese descent（血统）, and Polynesians, among others. Native Hawaiians have held on to many of their customs and traditions despite the influx(流入)of non-natives over the years. Hawaii is the only state that has an official native language. Statehood had been proposed（提议）many times throughout Hawaiis history, but it was not until 1959 that Hawaii became the 50th state of the United States.Though Captain Cook called the islands that he discovered in 1778 the Sandwich islands, this honor to the Earl of Sandwich would be short-lived. King Kamehameha I united the islands under his rule by 1819 as the Kingdom of Hawaii.A couple of theories exist on the origin of the name Hawaii. One theory has it that the name comes from a combination of the words “Hawa” and “ii” and means a small or new homeland; The other theory is that the name comes from the traditional discoverer of the islands, Hawaii Loa.Hawaii has also been referred to as “The Pineapple(凤梨) State” and “The Youngest State.”61. All the statements are supported by the passage except? A. Hawaii is made up of 132 islands. B. There are eight main islands which is large in Hawaii. C. Hawaii is about 3 square miles in land area.D. Hawaii is regarded as “Paradise of the Pacific ” for its beauty62. Which is not the important reason why thousands of tourists visit Hawaii ?A.

Scientists have created a new machine that harvests energy from the movement of the knees while walking. Six volunteers wore the devices on their legs while walking on a treadmill (跑步机) and were able to produce about five watts of electrical power each. Thats enough energy to run 10 cell phones at the same time. “Since muscles are the powerhouses of the body, my colleagues and I designed our device to generate electricity from the motion of the knee joint,” said Max Donelan. “It resembles a knee brace and weighs about 1.5 kilograms including the gearing (传动装置) and generator.”The apparatus (装置) captures the energy of a persons movement by coupling an electrical generator to knee motion. When the wearer extends the knee, a gear on the device turns and spins the generator, which builds up energy. When the knee is flexed, the device turns off so as not to tax the wearer. The machine senses motion and knows when to activate itself.The design allows a person to use the tool without expending much additional energy beyond the normal demands of walking. The researchers measured the volunteers oxygen intake and carbon-dioxide output to make sure it wasnt strenuous to use.People are an excellent source of portable power. An average-sized person stores as much energy in fat as a 1,000-kilogram battery. People recharge their body batteries with food.The device could be used to power computers in remote regions where electricity is scarce. The early markets are people whose lives depend on portable power, such as people with artificial limbs. On the military side, soldiers have an incredible dependence on batteries these days, so both these groups could benefit.66. The text is mainly about a new machine that _. A. can make your walking easy on a treadmill B. can generate enough electricity by walking C. can provide enough electricity for your cell phones D. can offer electricity for your physical practice67. According to the text, which parts of the body are suitable for the device? A. The knees.B. The ankles.C. The wrists.D. The neck.68. It can be inferred from the text that the amount of electricity from the device directly lies in _. A. the speed of your walkingB. the amount of food you eat C. the amount of oxygen intakeD. the extent of your knees extending69. Why did the researchers measure the volunteers carbon-dioxide output? A. To see whether the device is hard to use. B. To test the amount of electricity generated. C. To tell whether the device has enough source of energy. D. To judge what food is useful for the wearers.70. We can learn from the text that the device _. A. is a must for a soldier in the army B. will more and more change peoples ways of life C. has widely been used in remote regions D. is more useful in places with electricity unaccessibleDFoods good for your body is the topic of these timely books.
