According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the average US adult put on ten pounds (4.5kg) of weight during the 1990s. transporting the extra weight cost airlines an extra $275 million in fuel costs in 2000, the report says.Earnings at airlines have already been under pressure due to the decreasing demand and a record increase in the price of crude oil. In the US, a number of airlines have gone bust while others are struggling to survive in an ever more competitive marketplace. While it is relatively easy to check the weight of a travelers luggage and charge those that burst limits, it is much harder to regulate a persons waistline. Some firms have toyed with the idea of (jokingly suggested) charging overweight travelers for two seats, but it is not a practice that has taken off industry-wide.Last year, the American Federal Aviation Administration increased the average passenger weight they use to calculate aircraft loads by ten pounds. Since then, crude oil prices have hit record levels, with many firms responding by raising the fuel charge they add to ticket prices.The rising level of obesity in the US and in Europe has prompted government health campaigns and harsh criticism of a number of food firms. Restaurant chain McDonalds has taken the main force of the attack, and has in recent months reworked its menu to include healthier option, which has helped lift profits.As with fast food restaurants, timely adjustment may be the best solution presently for American airlines. The prediction by experts, however, is that humans are set to become bigger.41. This passage is most probably taken from .A. a government reportB. a yearly economy reviewC. an airline guidebookD. a newspaper42. The underlined phrase “gone bust” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to .A. become stronger B. got banned C. failed financially D. expanded further43. What measures did many American airlines take in response to the record increase in the price of crude oil last year?A. They increased the average passenger weight when calculating aircraft loads.B. They brought up their ticket prices.C. They charged obsess travelers for two seats.D. They overcharged travelers luggage.44. What does the last paragraph of the passage imply?A. Airline profits in America will be under even greater pressure.B. The population of obsess people will increase rapidly.C. American airlines will charge more for fuels.D. Fast food restaurants will be forced to change their menus.BA device that stops drivers from falling asleep at the wheel is about to undergo testing at Department of Transport laboratories and could go on sale within 12 months.The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20% - 40% that are caused by tiredness.Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband. The device, worn by drivers, gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing the steering wheel (方向盘). A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the drivers response.Tiredness is directly related to a drivers response time. Usually a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond, but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should ou0en a window or stop for a rest. If the drivers continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible.The device has been delivered to the departments laboratories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.45. According to the text, Driver Alert .A. aims to reduce tiredness-related accidentsB. has gone through testing at laboratoriesC. aims to prevent drivers from sleepingD. has been on sale for 12 months46. How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert?A. By sounding a warning.B. By touching the wristband.C. By checking the driving time.D. By pressing the steering wheel.47. We can learn from the text that the driver needs to stop for a break when his response time is _.A. about 400 millisecondsB. below 500 millisecondsC. over 500 millisecondsD. about 4 minutes48. When the driver gets sleepy while driving, Driver Alert _.A. moves more regularlyB. stops working properlyC. opens the window for the driverD. sounds more frequently and loudlyCDesert plants fall into sorts according to the way the deal with the problem of surviving drought. There are the drought-avoiders-those which persist (存留) only as seeds, ready to spring up when it rains, to flower quickly and produce another crop of seeds, and to die again. There are also the drought-resisters-those which have evolved various methods for strong water, locating underground water, or reducing their need for water by such devices as shedding their leaves. The drought-resisters are perennials (多年生植物), they manage to live from one rainy season to another, slowly growing bigger and bigger. Of these, the succulent (肉质植物) is a small but interesting fraction (小部分). They may store water in their leaves, in their stems, or in underground containers.In the American deserts the best-known succulents are the cacti (仙人掌). They come in a wide range of sizes, from 50-foot tall giant saguaros (树形仙人掌) to tiny round cacti about the size of a thumb-nail. They take thick, cylindrical (圆柱体) or even spherical forms, thereby exposing a minimum of evaporating surface to the air and light. They are leafless, except in youth, and then the leaves are small. Typically their surfaces are spiny, discouraging thirst animals, and channeled like an accordion (手风琴), so the fleshy stem may expand quickly when the plant drinks and contracts slowly as it uses up the water. The root system is widespread and shallow, with good reason only about 3 percent of the rain that falls on the desert penetrates to any significant depth into soil.49. The passage classifies the desert plants according to _.A. the ways they take to deal with the typical climate condition in desertB. their shapeC. how they use waterD. when they produce their seeds50. According to the passage, some desert plants drop their leaves _.A. because the temperature is too highB. so that the plants can evaporate less waterC. because they are drought-resistersD. so that the plants can store more water51. What interests the author most when he or she mentions succulents is that _.A. they take thick cylindrical or even spherical shapeB. they are best-known in AmericaC. they have many ways of containing waterD. some of them can be very tiny52. The passage gives us an impression that _.A. the desert plants are shaped in a way as if they were designed by somebody on purposeB. more water is needed in desert so that more desert plants can grow thereC. more lands will be turned into desert if we do not try harder to save water in our daily lifeD. the cacti are the most famous desert plants in AmericaDSome years ago industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must be today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them; often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.Of course sometimes there were real disasters which showed the need for changes. Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments should pay attention to. At such time, there were inquiries (调查) into the cause of the disaster or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries; however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the US, for example, there is a department which tests new planes and gives warnings about possible problem. It also makes the rules that plane producers must follow. Another department controls the foods that companies sell. A third department looks at the places where people work, and then reports any companies that are breaking laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course, new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every disaster or illness, but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before.The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.53. It can be concluded from the passage that in the past _.A. companies were free to put out any products they wanted toB. workers often got ill because of the poor working conditionsC. many people were killed by the dangerous productsD. industries were not as careful in managements as they are today54. It suggests in the passage that _.A. governments and companies had different thoughts about the safety of productsB. governments paid little attention to the safety of productsC. government officials often did not listen to scientistsD. in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments55. Some years ago safety rules _.A. came into being as a result of the workers demandB. were effective enough to protect workers and customersC. were put forward because of scientists adviceD. were introduced because quite a number of people were killed56. The special departments protect customers and workers in many ways except by _.A. designing new productsB. controlling the sale of productsC. asking questionsD. testing new productsEIf it were only necessary to decide whether to teach elementary science to everyone on a mass basis or to find the gifted few and take them as far as they can, our task would be fairly simple. The public school system, however, has no such choose, for the jobs must be carried on at the same time. Because we depend so heavily on science and technology for our progress, we must produce specialists in many fields. Because we live in a democratic nation, whose citizens make the policies for the nation, large numbers of us must be educated to understand, to support, and when necessary, to judge the work of experts. The public school must educate both producers and users of scientific services.In education, there should be a good balance among the branches of knowledge that contribute to effective thinking and wise judgment. Such balance is defeated by too much emphasis on any one field. This question of balance involves not only the relation of the natural science, the social science, and the arts, but also relative emphasis among the natural science themselves.Similarly, we must have a balance between current and classical knowledge. The attention of the public is continually drawn to new possibilities in scientific fields and discovery of new knowledge; these should not be allowed to turn our attention away to the sound, established materials that form the basis of course for beginners.57. According to the first paragraph, the task of education is fairly complicated because _.A. the current public school system is too complicated to be understoodB. the public school system has no choice of what to teachC. it is difficult to decide whether elementary science should be taught in police schoolsD. the educators have to take care of both ordinary and gifted students58. Which of the following points is NOT included in the passage?A. One of the major tasks of education is to discover the most promising students.B. In order to teach effectively, educators are requested to lay emphasis on
