19.Uncivilized behavior by passengers unacceptableFor the first time,airline passengers have been blacklisted for uncivilized behavior.Their names will remain on the blacklist for one or two years,according to an announcement by the China Air Transport Association on Saturday.The blacklisting means they will not be able to travel by air until their names are removed from the list.
Blacklisting passengers who disobey the rules for travelling by air and so place their own interests before everything else,including safety,has long been overdue (迟到的,延迟的).
There have been frequent reports of passengers making a scene when their flight was delayed or when they believed that they were not treated as they should be on a flight.
Yet it is natural for some flights to be delayed because of reasons such as bad weather or mechanical problems that need to be solved.However,some passengers seem to take it for granted that their flight must take off at the time stated on their ticket,and they even assume that the members of the cabin crew are simply there to do their bidding(吩咐).
They forget that they should behave themselves in the first place and that respect is reciprocal (互相给与的).There is no reason for them to be respected when they do not show enough respect for others.
Observing rules can never be over-emphasized when it comes to flight safety.No one has the right to disregard the rules for any reason.Of course,airlines should provide quality services to meet the needs of passengers.Yet,even if passengers are not satisfied with the service provided,there is still no reason for them to flout the rules that are designed for the safety of all.
The blacklisting of these three passengers should serve for others to know they have to toe the line (顺从集体).

分析 本文是有关难以让人接受的旅客的不文明行为的报道,作者认为某些乘客的做法简直是无法令人容忍.
解答 21.A.细节理解题.根据文章第一段第一句话"For the first time,airline passengers have been blacklisted for uncivilized behavior."可知,这是第一次飞机乘客会因为其不文明的行为而被列入黑名单.也就是说,在这之前从未有过这种情形.因此,正确答案为A项.
22.D.词义猜测题.下划线单词所在的句子的含义是"当谈到飞行安全的时候,乘客遵守规章制度怎么被强调都不为过".由此可知,该下划线词的含义应是"服从,遵守",与D项含义接近.
23.C.作者态度题.根据第四段中的信息"However,some passengers seem to take it for granted that their flight must take off at the time stated on their ticket,and they even assume that the members of the cabin crew are simply there to do their bidding(吩咐)."可知,作者认为某些乘客的做法简直是无法令人容忍的,所以作者对此应是持"批判"的态度.故正确答案为C项.
24.B.文章出处题.纵观全文内容可知,本文应是选自报刊上的一篇报道.故正确答案为B项.
