阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

I have never traveled by plane but I would like to and I hope to have the choice very soon. Anyway, one can find advantages and disadvantages when traveling by plane.

The most important advantage is that it is the fastest way of transport when talking about longdistance travel. One can arrive in Spain in almost two hours and a half by plane. He can’t even make sure how time has passed and he has arrived. He does not have to wait three days in order to arrive in Spain by coach (长途公共汽车), which makes him feel pain in his legs and feel tired because he hasn’t slept more than three hours in the last three days.

Then, think about the conditions which are at our beck and call: we are served by a beautiful lady who will take care of us on the plane. It helps us forget about the possibility of some dangers.

Anyway, many people feel fearful when it comes to flying in a plane. They say that the risks (风险)of losing your life in plane travel are higher than in car travel.

Apart from this disadvantage, there are people who dont choose to travel by plane because they feel sick and they think air fares are too high.

One piece of advice I would like to give to people who choose to travel by plane is that they should not even think for a second about the plane crashing(坠落). Just relax, be comfortable and everything will be all right.

【1】From the text, we can learn that ________.

A. the author usually travels by plane

B. most people feel sick the first time they take a plane

C. it’s a good choice to have long distance travel by plane

D. there are often some accidents when people travel by plane

2What does the underlined phrase in the third paragraph mean?

A. Ready to serve us at any time.

The Price of Success

One problem for schools is that many students do not want to study hard. As a result, they perform (表现) poorly in their classes. This is especially true in the United States, where average scores for math and science are lower than in many other countries. In recent years, schools and charities have been looking for ways to help students get better grades in these subjects. An organization called the LMD Foundation introduced a program called Learn and Earn recently.

In the program, money was used to get a group of students to study harder in math and science. In addition to the normal school day, they went to after-school classes for four hours each week. The students were paid eight dollars for each hour of after-school class. By the end of the year, the students in the program had higher grades than a similar group of students who had not taken part.

Not everyone thinks that this is a good idea, though. TV reporter John Tulenko studied data (数据) from a similar program. He found that students’ grades went back down when they stopped getting paid. Many people are worried about this. They think that the students study because they want money, not because they enjoy learning. Also, some people believe that these types of programs are a bad idea because it is a large part of a teacher’s job to get students to study. If students are given money, some teachers might stop trying to do this.

However, others believe that these learning programs can be helpful for students from poor families. Many of these students do part-time jobs after school, and some even quit school at a young age to work. Some do this to help get money for their families. Others feel that they can learn more by working than by going to school. Programs like Learn and Earn let these students stay in school and still make money.

【1】What is true about many students in the United States?

A. They are not allowed to receive help from organizations.

B. They study more than students in other countries.

C. They are doing poorly in math and science.

D. They do not help their classmates get better grades.

2Students in the Learn and Earn program ________.

A. were asked to help other students with poor grades

B. were given money if their grades went up

C. were made to go to school during summer vacation

D. were paid to go to extra classes after school

3Why do some people think that programs like Learn and Earn are a bad idea?

A. Students’ grades only improve a little during the program.

B. Students stop studying when they are in the program.

C. Teachers might stop trying to do a big part of their job.

D. Teachers have started giving low grades to save money.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants.

Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience. In the 15th century, a greenhorn was a young cow or an ox whose horns(角)had not yet developed. A century later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had no experience in war. By the 18th century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.

Someone who is good at growing plants is said to have a green thumb(大拇指). The expression comes from the early 20th century. A person with a green thumb can make plants grow quickly and well.

Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling , jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster (怪物)is not a dangerous animal from outer space. It is an expression used about 400 years ago by the British writer William Shakespeare in his play Othello. It describes the unpleasant feeling when someone has something he wants. For example, a young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if you get a pay rise and he does not.

In most places in the world, a green light means to move ahead. In everyday speech, a green light means agree to continue with a project.
