Bom in 1835, Twain grew up in th

14、e Mississippi River town of Hannibal, Missouri. As did many other boys of his day, Twain dreamed of traveling on river boats and of someday becoming a riverboat pilot. Twain used his memories of the life of a river town in his two most famous books, Huckleberry Finn and Torn Sawyer.As a young man, T

15、wain held many jobs. He was a printer, a good miner, and, for a time, he was a riverboat pilot. During his pilot days, he adopted the name Mark Twain. This was a term used by the boatmen to mean that the water measured two fathoms, or twelve feet, which was deep enough for safe passage.Finally Twain

16、 became a successful writer. He traveled a great deal, writing and speaking, and became very popular both in the United States and in Europe.Twains style of writing was simple and direct. Among the things he wrote about were superstitious (迷信的) people and people who were easily fooled. He used his u

In New York City, only abo

20、ut 50 percent of students manage to graduate in four years. At Bedford Academy, 63 percent of the students qualify for free lunch, a majority of which are being raised by a single mother and another significant number are being raised by someone other than a parent. Yet close to 95 percent of studen

21、ts graduate, and actually, every one of those goes on to college.Mr. Leonard does not achieve those results by admitting only high-testing students into his school. Of the students arriving with lower test scores, Mr. Leonard says that he is not looking for the students with the highest grades, or e

22、ven the best behavior. Hes looking for the ones who understand his basic mission of discipline and respect, and are willing to devote themselves to his regular training course.The Bedford Academy High School is famous for its autonomy. For Mr. Leonard, autonomy means insisting that all entering stud

23、ents spend their Saturday mornings in preparatory classes tile summer before they enroll. Autonomy also means an automatic weeklong suspension for any student who “disrespects a female,“ said Mr. Leonard. It means requiring struggling students, in the weeks before the Regents exams, to attend studyi

24、ng sessions on Saturday from 9 a. m. until 9 p. m. It means the most senior, experienced teachers, including Mr. Leonard, teach not the schools academic jewels, but the most struggling students.And autonomy also means the schools teachers administer almost no homework.

Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years

29、ago, it was considered impolite behaviour for a man to smoke on the street. No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking When a lady was in a room.Customs are also different from country to country. Does a man Walk on the left or the right of a woman in

30、your country? Or doesnt it matter? What about table manner? Should you use both hands when you are eating?The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each ot

31、her for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 oclock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls

32、up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a dinner party. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat

33、 his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way.

None of the above.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.Before a new type of airplane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.The first is c

37、alled the “tank test“. A modern airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure(结构) of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin of the plane i

38、nside. The pressure (压力) on a small window is like a huge foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane would explode in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, the plane is lowered into a huge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. The pr

39、essure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.The mo

40、st dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flights in the air. The test pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines (发动机) are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilots job to find out how he can get control of the plane again.

41、 These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.（分数：12.00）(1).By doing the “tank test“, the engineers can find out_.A. the amount of air in the planeB. the strength of the plane structureC. the pressure inside and outside the planeD. the power of the airpl

42、ane engines（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What will happen to the plane under the “tank test“?A. It will be broken.B. It will be made stronger.C. It will be filled with water.D. It wilt be tested by pilots.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).According to the text, why are test flights most dangerous?A. The plane may explode

43、 in the air.B. The pilot may lose control of the plane.C. The engines may be damaged.D. Too much air may get into the plane.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).What might be the most suitable title for the text?A. Two Important Tests on AirplanesB. The Importance of Flying SafelyC. The Danger of Testing AirplanesD

44、 How Airplanes Are Made and Tested（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.Design of all the new tools and implements is based on careful experiments with electronic instruments. First, a human “guinea pig“ is tested using a regular tool. Measurements are taken of the amount Of work done, and the buildup of heat in the bo

45、dy. Twisted joints and stretched muscles can not perform as well, it has been found, as joints and muscles in their normal positions. The same person is then tested again, using a tool designed according to the suggestions made by Dr. Tichauer. All these tests have shown the great improvement of the

46、 new designs over the old.One of the electronic instruments used by Dr. Tichauer, the myograph (肌动记器), makes visible through electrical signals the work done by human muscle.Another machine measures any dangerous features of tools, thus proving information upon which to base a new design. One conclu

47、sion of tests made with this machine is that a tripod (三脚架) stepladder is more stable and safer to use than one with four legs.This work has attracted the attention of efficiency experts and time-and-motion-study engineer, but its value goes far beyond that. Dr. Tichauers first thought is for the he

48、alth of the tool user. With the repeated use of the same tool all day long on production lines and in other jobs, even light manual work can put a heavy stress on one small area of the body. In time, such stress can cause a disabling disease. Furthermore, muscle fatigue is a serious safety hazard.Ef

49、ficiency is the by-product of comfort, Dr. Tichauer believes, and his new designs for traditional tools have proved his point.（分数：12.00）(1).From the passage we know that joints and muscles perform best when _ .A. they are twisted and stretchedB. they are in their normal positionsC. they are tested with a human “guinea pig“D. they are tested with electronic instruments（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).A “myograph“ (Para. 2, Line 1) is an electronic instrument
