runway”可知因沙尘暴关闭所有的跑道，只留一条，故应为延时降落。2. 答案：a解析：因为沙尘暴迫使机场关闭跑道。 b为“警告”；c意为“打扫，席卷”；d意为“提醒”，均不符合题意3. 答案：c解析：飞机在等待降落的过程中应该是绕城市盘旋。故应选c。 a. watch用于着动态的场面； b. visit意为“参观，拜访”； d. cross意为“横穿”4. 答案：d解析：根据上下文句意可知，飞机要绕城市盘旋几分钟以便等待着陆5. 答案：c解析：句意为；“我们被告知仍在座位上坐好，系好安全带，因为飞机可能有颠簸。”此处应为because引导的原因状语从句6. 答案：b解析：makepale by comparison “使相形见绌”，此处用以强调飞机在空中极不稳定7. 答案：a解析：句意为：“象过山车一样的巨烈运动使旅客恶心而不得不用呕吐袋。a. sick 意为“恶心的”；b. nervous意为“紧张的”； c. angry 意为“生气的”；d. afraid意为“害怕的”。8答案b解析：此空前的that指的是using airsickness bags，也就是发生在飞机上狭小空间中的呕吐，因此选用narrow“狭窄的”，后面的space指的是飞机内部空间。empty 意为“空的”，secret意为“秘密的”，均不合题意。9答案a解析：在这种情形下本来就很难受，在飞机上呕吐使得这种难受更加强烈，此处serve意为“起作用，用作”。10. 答案：a解析：根据后面的 a sense of anxiety and fear可知，人们都很紧张、焦虑，在这种情形下飞机上的人一定是静悄悄的。11. 答案：d解析：飞机上的焦躁不安，应该是能够很明显的被感觉到，故选clearly12. 答案：b解析：从后文中的 “he didnt know he was supposed to be afraid and worriedthose are what we grownups have learned ”他不知道害怕和着急，那是我们成年人，可推测出应该是孩子13. 答案：d解析：应是飞机的每一次颠簸让孩子体验坐过山车一样的感受，孩子发出咯咯的笑声14. 答案：a解析：句意为我意识到孩子不知道他应该害怕和担心15. 答案：b解析：应是为他的安全担心16. 答案：c解析：成人都是从孩子时代过来的。是成人的亲身经历让他们知道孩子不知道什么是害怕和担心17. 答案：d解析：因为孩子不知道害怕，自然是在飞机的颠簸中享受坐过山车般的快乐18. 答案：a解析：sat back into my seat意为坐回到座位上19. 答案：c解析：句意应为：“我坐回到我的座位上，假装真地坐上了过山车。”a项意为“几乎”；b项意为“最后”，d项意为“突然”，均不合题意。20答案b解析：我甚至咯咯地笑了一两次。作者应该是真的笑出了声，才让邻座的手拿呕吐袋的人懊恼。做成了某事用managed to

various reasons why cancers appear to be on the increase. for one thing, though their sufferers are to be found in all age groups, cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years. naturally, since people live longer these years, there are more cancer sufferers than before. again, with better methods of diagnosis (诊断), doctors can more easily recognize cancerous growths that would formerly have passed unnoticed or that would have been wrongly diagnosed. it is also believed that certain habits and conditions of modem living, including heavy smoking and the pollution of the air, may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions than before.we all look forward to the day when a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small. researchers around the world are working on such a test. most of their work deals with the examination of the blood.researchers in boston have found something in the blood of cancer patients that does not appear in healthy persons. the test showed which persons had cancer and which did not. it was correct more than 90 percent of the time.the researchers believe the test may be able to show cancer very clearly in its development. cancers discovered early usually can be treated successfully.the test examines very small bits of fat in the blood called lipids (脂质). cancers seem to change lipids although doctors do not know why. the test showed differences between the lipids of the persons with cancer and the lipids of those without cancer.the researchers say the new test could be a step to develop a simple way to check patients for cancer before the disease shows on an x-ray.1. who will fail cancer from the study of the researchers?a. the young. b. the middle age and the older.c. the man. d. the woman.2. the underlined words such a test refer to_.a. the test that shows which persons have cancer and which dont .b. the test that may be able to show cancer very early in its development,.c. a simple medical test that cannot find cancer when it is -smalld. a new test that could be a step to develop a difficult way3. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. cancers have much to do with something in patients blood.b. people living in better conditions are most likely to be attacked by cancer.c.x-raying is the best way to determined whether a person has cancer or not.d. cancers have nothing to do with a persons habits and living conditions.4. what would be the best title for the passage?a. a simple way to cancer b. cancers can be curedc. how to find cancer d. early discovery of cancer1. b 细节题。从第一段中的cancers are particularly likely to attack persons in their middle and advanced years可以知道癌症尤其容易在中年人和老年人的身体上发生。2. b 词义题。第二段中的a simple medical test can find cancer while it is still small；test与后面的such a test指的是同样的一种方法，所以这里的test指的是上句的“用最简单的方法诊断早期的癌症”。3. a 细节题。第三段中提到了cancer病人血液中的有些东西在健康人中没有，并且百分之九十以上的情况是这样的。b项与d项的意思与文章第一段中的certain habits and conditions of modern living including heavy smoking and pollution of the air may leave people living in more cancer-causing conditions不符；c项内容与文章最后一段的意思不符。4. d 主旨题。文章在开头就交代了写作的目的，有各种不同的理由说明了为什么癌症似乎在上升，而从后面的几段我们知道科学家们正在研究一种新的早期诊断cancer的方法。完形填空-bi truly feel that my mother led me here, to morzaine, and to my future as a happy wife and business woman. when mum
