But it is a big headache for some people. They cant help worrying about things like, “Is turbulence (颠簸) a bad thing?” or, “Is it dangerous if we dont change our mobile phones to flight mode (飞行模式)?” British newspaper Daily Mail spoke to some experts to answer these questions. They also tell us other interesting things about flying.Is turbulence dangerous?Its scary and uncomfortable. But it is not something you really need to worry about.Turbulence is caused when two groups of air hit one another at different speeds. Wind, thunderstorms (暴风雨) and being close to mountains can be reasons for this.You may feel like turbulence is dangerous, but it wont crash (坠毁) your plane. “Even in extremely rough air (扰动气流), the wings (机翼) are not going to break off,” explained Patrick Smith, an airline pilot, who is also an air travel blogger and author of Ask The Pilot. com.Why are plane windows round?Round windows are for passenger safety.As the airplane flies higher and higher, the outside atmospheric pressure (气压) gets lower and lower. During the flight, the pressure inside the plane becomes greater than the pressure outside.When this happens, square windows can break. Thats because having different pressures inside and outside puts pressure on the corners of square windows. But rounded corners can spread the pressure through the window.What happens when a phone isnt on flight mode?Some passengers believe mobile phones and tablets need to be turned off because they could bring the plane down. However, this is not true.If you dont change your phone to flight mode, pilots and air traffic controllers may hear unpleasant sounds in their headphones. It also influences radio communications. So its still best to put it on flight mode.（1）According to Paragraph 1, we learn that the story is going to _.A . show what worries people may have about flyingB . interview some experts about flyingC . give people tips about how to travel by planeD . explain some interesting facts about flying（2）What will happen when there is turbulence?A . People may feel uncomfortable.B . Two planes may hit each other easily.C . It will make the plane drop suddenly.D . It can break off the plane wings.（3）Planes use round windows rather than square ones, because _.A . round windows can spread the pressureB . round windows can add outside pressureC . square windows can lower(降低) the pressure on the windowsD . the corners of square windows are difficult to make（4）What happens if a phone isnt on flight mode?A . The plane will crash.B . Air traffic controllers cant get any information.C . It may influence radio communications.D . It may be noisy in the plane.（5）The passage may be taken from _.A . A story bookB . A science magazineC . A guide travelD . A novel12. （6分）阅读理解We use passwords to keep our personal information secret and safe, but some passwords we use may not be as dependable as we think.Splash Data, a computer safety company, recently came out a list of the 25 worst passwords of 2011. This list is based on the research of hackers files including stolen passwords. According to the list, password is the worst and most common password. Many others on the list are numbers in order either forward (for example, 1234) or backward. Letters on the keyboard in order, such as qwerty are also common, as well as some first names and animals.Hackers can easily break into many users just by trying common passwords again and again, said Morgan Slain, CEO of Splash Data.How can you make a strong password? It should be eight characters or more, with a mix of letters, numbers and symbols. One way to create a long and easy-to-remember password is to separate short words with spaces or numbers.Having safe passwords is important for surfing the Internet safely. But its not the only thing you must do to keep safe online. Here are some other web safety suggestions:Never give out information that will allow someone to find you offline. That includes your full names, address and phone number.Dont include your real name as part of your online screen name.Never meet people you met on the Internet in person.

This may seem like a difficult word at first, but it can be very useful to understand.Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation. For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However, if you do this in Europe，some people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China，we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places.If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may politely give them some suggestions. One of the most polite ways is to ask someone，“Would you mind doing this” or “Would you mind not doing that”. People dont usually like to be criticized, so we have to be careful how we do this.Although rules of etiquette can often be different，some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world! For example, dropping litter is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask him，“Would you mind picking it up？”根据短文内容，完成下列任务。（1）What does the word “etiquette” mean？(根据短文内容回答问题)_（2）Find out the key sentence of Paragraph 2.(找出第二段的中心句)_（3）If your friend talks loudly in the library, what would you say to him/her？(根据你对短文 的理解，写出一个委婉的建议)_（4）请将最后一段中的画线句子译成汉语。_（5）请给短文拟个标题。_四、 根据句意和音标提示以适当形式填写正确的单词。 (共7题；共18分)15. （1分）Look, its c_.
