文档简介
倒数第6天(5月31日)Time was running out,and Mark Dickinson wasnt sure whether hed get to see his dying 2yearold grandson one last time.A long line at Los Angeles International Airports security checkpoint had kept him from getting to his gate on time.His grandson Caden would be taken off life support in a matter of hours in Denver,Colorado,with or without his grandfathers presence.“I was kind of panicking(惊慌)because I was running late,and I really thought I wasnt going to make the flight,”Dickinson said.Thats when a pilot from Southwest Airlines stepped up and held the flight at the gate until Dickinson arrived.The pilot was standing by the gate waiting for him when Dickinson arrived in socks,so rushed that he just grabbed his shoes at security and ran through the boarding gate.“I told him.Thank you so much.I cant tell you how much I appreciated that.And he said,No problem.They cant leave without me anyway,”Dickinson said.Dickinsons grandson,Caden Rodgers,suffered a head injury in an accident.Dickinsons wife called Southwest and asked them to hold the plane.After the flight,Dickinson said,he wanted to thank the pilot again for his sincere display of sympathy(表示同情)but didnt get the chance.Most airlines would punish any staff member who holds up a flight.However,a Southwest spokeswoman said the pilots actions were exemplary.“You cant hold a plane for every late customer,but I think we would all agree that the pilot absolutely made the right decision,”Southwest spokeswoman Marilee McInnis said.“I dont think you could ask for a better example of great service for our customers.It gives you a sense of pride that our pilot took such an action.”【语篇解读】 对于航空公司来说,乘客就是上帝。1What caused Dickinson to arrive late?AA terrible accident on his way to the airport.BToo many passengers in the airport.CA panic at the airport.DHis old age and slow movement.解析事实细节题。“A long line at Los Angeles International Airports security checkpoint had kept him from getting to his gate on time.”说明当时过安检的人很多,影响了他按时登机。答案B2The underlined word “exemplary” in the seventh paragraph means “_”Aadmirable BblamableCsympathetic Dshocking解析猜测词义题。从上文的however以及下文航空公司发言人的话中我们可以看出“虽然一般情况下飞行员是不能这么做的,但对于特殊情况下飞行员的特殊处理公司是理解和支持的。”答案A3It can be inferred from the passage that the pilot _.Acould receive a big rewardBcould have lost his jobCcould escape punishmentDwouldnt do it again解析推理判断题。从最后一段中的“It gives you a sense of pride that our pilot took such an action.”可以看出“公司对飞行员的做法是感到自豪的。”所以应该不会处罚飞行员。答案C4Whats the main idea of the passage?AThe mans wife called the airline and asked them to hold the plane.BMany airlines would punish a staff member who holds up a flight.CA pilot holds up a flight for a man g
