a very high speed, and it is said that the planes speed sensors were not the direct cause of the crash.the airbus a330-200 plane flying from rio de janeiro to paris went down with 228 people on board in a remote area of the atlantic, 1,500 km off brazils mainland, which is one of historys most challenging plane crash investigations.one of the automatic messages emitted by the air france plane indicates it was receiving incorrect speed information from the external monitoring instruments, which could destabilize the planes control systems. experts have suggested those external instruments might have iced over.the pilots apparently also did not send any mayday(求救信号) calls of historys most challenging plane crash investigations. the plane was not destroyed in flight. it seemed to have hit the surface of the water on its flight trajectory (path) with a strong vertical acceleration, and the investigators have found neither traces of fire nor traces of explosives.life vests found among the wreckage were not inflated (blown up with air), suggesting the passengers were not prepared for a crash landing in the water.36. what does this passage mainly talk about?a. an air france flight.b. a plane accident.c. a description of a plane.d. the messages emitted by the plane.37. how can we know that the passengers on board were not ready for the crash?a. the plane flew at a very high speed.b. the crash happened by accident.c. the plane didnt fly along the correct trajectory.d. the life vests were not filled with air.38. the underlined word in the third paragraph can be replaced by “”.a. sent b. releasedc. given out d. relaxedblast months chengdu bus fire that killed 27 people and injured 74 was the result of arson (set fire on). and the perpetrator (a person who does sth. wrong) was a desperate misanthrope (a person who is tired of the present world) who wanted to “die differently”. suicide is tragic, more so when it inflicts harm on others. the incident in the sichuan provincial capital turned one mans warped idea of life devastating for 101 families. thats suicide plus murder.the innocent passengers of that crowded bus can be blamed for just one thing and one thing only: they were at the wrong place at the wrong time. it wasnt their destiny. the incident was by no means inevitable (unavoidable) if someone had intervened after a phone call the arsonist made to his daughter, saying he would die the next day, or if someone had stopped him from carrying a lethal bucket of gasoline aboard the bus.theres no point regretting. we had a chance to avert (stop) the disaster, but missed it. harms already been inflicted. the loss of lives is irreparable. the local authorities have installed stricter safety standards to dispel subsequent fears among bus commuters.the authorities neglect had a role to play in the tragedy. dangerous substances like gasoline are forbidden in public places throughout china, including on buses. but no one stopped the crazy man from casually stepping into that bus holding deaths hand.it would be a great pity if this tragedy fails to open our eyes to the significance of suicide/crisis intervention.as is true in most suicide cases, there were loud and clear signals. the man had reportedly threatened to kill himself on multiple occasions after his family turned down his requests for money. and he made it even clearer on the night of june 4 with that phone call to his daughter.maybe he was like the boy who cried wolf too many times. besides, he was a compulsive gambler and visited prostitutes, whose word doesnt hold much water.like in most cases, his suicide, too, was preventable. not only his family but our entire society should learn a lesson. every year, about 280,000 people in this country commit suicide.as depression grows into an increasingly prominent social phenomenon, suicide intervention has to be incorporated in the countrys public health programs.the state council reportedly received a national suicide prevention plan years ago. whether or not the plan itself was good enough, the issue is worth a serious look.39. where can this article be probably found?a. in a guidebook.b. in a newspaper.c. in a textbook. d. in a play.40. what does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean?a. force somebody to do. b. hit somebody on the head. c. make somebody suffer.d. make somebody leave.41. when did the disaster probably happen?a. june 5. b. july 4.c. june 7.d. not mentioned.42. what can be learned from the passage?a. the perpetrator just wanted to kill others.b. the local government had taken strict measures to avoid it.c. the other passengers in the bus kept him from bringing gasoline.d. the disaster could be stopped before hand.cwhen you consider what subject to study in college, chances are that you and your parents will think about what you can make out of it after graduation. you will likely ask the question: “can i find a well-paid job or simply a job with a degree in this in the future?”this consideration also influences students when they come to choose between studying science or the humanities(人文学科) at college. people generally believe that the humanities, which include literature, history, cultural studies and philosophy(哲学), do not prepare students for a specific vocation(职业). science subjects, however, are considered vocational courses that produce scientists, engineers and economists(经济学家).“ive decided to take finance(财政学) as my college major. my parents and i think this subject will help me get a good job or start a business,” said huachen yueru, 17, a science student at wuxi no.1 high school.even those who choose a liberal arts(文科) education often pick the humanities subjects they think will best help them later find a job.“im going to study spanish in college, which i believe will open doors to a high-paying job for me,” said liu chao, 18, a senior 2 student at dalian no.20 high school. he said few of his classmates show interest in subjects like philosophy and history, which are seen as “less promising” in job markets. the popularity of liberal arts subjects among college students has also been decreasing in the united states. american scholars and universities are concerned that in the ongoing economic crisis liberal arts subjects will be hit hardest. as money tightens(紧缩), they worry that the humanities may become “a great luxury that many cannot afford”, according to the new york times.this concern recently led the association of american colleges and universities to issue a report aimed at selling the humanities to prospective(预期的) college students. the report argues that the humanities have both practical and economic value, as they develop personal growth, such as critical(批判性的) thinking, increase historical knowledge and sharpen reasoning skills.“the humanities have a lot to contribute to the preparation of students for their vocational lives,” derek bok, a former president of harvard, said to the new york times. he said he was referring not only to writing and analytical skills but also to the type of ethical(伦理的) issues raised by new technology like stem cell(干细胞) research.43. why do college students prefer to choose science subjects rather than the humanities as their major? a. because science subjects are easier to learn.b. because they think science subjects will help them find a good job after graduation.c. because they can spend less money if they learn science subjects.d. because their parents prefer them to learn science subjects.44. according to the report of the association of american colleges and universities the humanities have the following advantages except .a. developing personal growth b. increasing historical knowledgec. improving reasoning skillsd. preparing students for a specific vocation45. which of the following is true?a. quite a few high school students want to study subjects like philosophy and history in college.b. only chinese students prefer science subjects to liberal arts subjects.c. the association of american colleges and universities has taken some measures to promote the humanities.d. science subjects have more advantages than liberal arts subjects.46. whats derek boks attitude towards the humanities?a. positive. b. negative.c. neutral. d. indifferent.dwinter was a new experience after we moved to the farm from black lake.it seemed colder, longer, and more isolating. we couldnt run across the street to meet our friends for a day of ice skating or sledding. there was no large group of kids to play with as we waited for the school bus. our closest neighbors were now a quarter of a mile away. the first winter we spent at the farm was especially difficult.my mother developed pneumonia at christmas time, and it took her a long while to recover.minnesota winters can be brutal and i remember that one as especially cold. there were short episodes of being snowed in, waiting for several days for the country plows to get to our little road. we all went a bit stir crazy and were more than ready for spring.march finally rolled around. the snow was melting and on days when the sun was shining the air hinted at warmer weather.one sunday afternoon while my father was trying to nap, my siblings and i were encouraged to go for a hike. we decided on birch hill as our destination. it was far enough away to keep us out of doors for several hours, but not such a lengthy walk that cass, my six-year old sister, would get tired halfway there.we started off through the open alfalfa field, making our way to the adjoining meadow. we could see the faintest hint of green beneath last years dead meadow grass and buds were just beginning to swell on the red dogwood branches.we had never before paid attention to all of the changes spring brings. the meadow sloped gently upwards, rising gradually, and suddenly the bright white trunks of the birch trees were visible.as we approched the grove it appeared as though there were purple balls scattered beneath the trees, even on top of the patches of snow, but upon closer inspection we realized the puple balls were actually flowers tiny, velvet, upside down purple balls carpeted the ground beneath the trees.we were amazed. we had never seen flowers in the snow.my little sister immediately wanted to pick some to take to my mother.“no,” i said. “lets bring mother here. lets surprise her with the first spring flowers!”my brother and sister agreed this was a good idea. we knew that mother would have excuses so we let cass do the begging since she was the baby of the family.after much cajoling, my mother reluctantly agreed. when my mother saw the flowers, she just stopped and stared, then let out a quiet awestruck “oohh”.“what are they, mama?” cass asked in a near whisper.“theyre crocuses,” my mother answered softly, “tough little flowers that will bloom even in the snownatures spring miracle. im so happy you shared this special surprise with me.”from that point on, a visit to find the crocuses became a yearly rite of spring until i grew up and moved away.47. which of the following is not the reason why the first winter they spent at the farm was especially difficult?a. they had few friends to play with and they felt isolated.b. their mother was seriously ill and it took her a long time to recover.c. it was extremely cold and snowed a lot that winter.d. they were very poor and it was difficult for them to live through the winter.48. the underlined word “cajoling” means .a. persuading someone to do something by encouraging them gentlyb. persuading someone to do something by arguing with them c. hesitating to do something before making a decisiond. crying in order to persuade someone to do something49. why did a visit to find the crocuses become a yearly rite of spring in those years?a. because the crocuses were so beautiful that they wanted to see them every year. b. because each year they eagerly awaited that first miracle of the season which proved that they could survive anything.c. because their father wanted them to go out to see the tough little crocuses every year.d. because the crocuses were
