the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. the vehicle named the transition has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. the transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. it flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per hour in the air. on the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit（定金） to get a transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will rise after terrafugia introduces the transition to the public later this week at the new york auto show. but dont expect it to show up in too many driveways. its expected to cost as much as $279,000. and it wont help if youre stuck in traffic. the car needs a runway.inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to robert mann, an airline industry expert. but mann thinks terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. the government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. the transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.mann said terrafugia was helped by the federal aviation administrations (联邦航空管理局) decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the transition, a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.9. what is the first paragraph mainly about?a. the advantages of flying cars.b. the basic data of the

is a country of many resources. among its resources are many great rivers, which provide useful transport routes. water transport is an efficient way to carry heavy loads, such as grain. in ancient times, a waterway was needed between chinas rich farmlands and the capital city. this need inspired engineers to build a canal. according to writings by the ancient thinker confucius, work on a canal linking the yangze river with the city of huai-in began about 486 b.c. for many centuries afterward, chinese emperors worked on extending this ancient canal.this canal is now known as chinas grand canal. one thousand years after the original canal was begun, it was in extreme need of repair. this was in the year 607, during the sui dynasty. by 610 the emperor had had the canal extended. the

extend shipping. building this part of the grand canal required enormous effort and cost. neither the first attempt nor the second one was successful, so the builders chose another route. finally this link in the grand canal was finished.by the time of the ming dynasty, the grand canal had six sections. these were busy with goods until the nineteenth century. then a series of severe floods struck china. parts of the grand canal were badly damaged. by 1868 it had been largely abandoned as a means of northern route.the grand canal was mostly restored in the twentieth century. it was widened and deepened, and a new section was constructed. today the canal, which is about 1,200 miles in length, has new locks(运河的水闸). it is busy with ships and barges(驳船) carrying goods to and from cities along
