After 30 years (25)as a pilot,Captain Peter Elliott got to fly holiday-makers on a Thomas Cook flight from Birmingham,UK,to Tenerife,Spain with his daughter.
Senior First Officer Laura Elliott (26)has been flying/has flown(fly) for six years but has never before got to work with her father."It's my dream to be able to fly with my Dad,"she said.
It had seemed unlikely that the pair would ever co-pilot (27)the same aircraft because Miss Elliott learned to fly on Airbus planes when she joined the company in 2009,and her father flew Boeings.However,after Peter Elliott,59,retrained to fly Airbuses,their dream of flying together came true.
Miss Elliott,30,became interested in flying when (28)inspd(inspire) by her father with a trial flight as her birthday present.Miss Elliott said:"Becoming a pilot was never something I had considered.It was only when my Dad bought me a trial flight for my 18th birthday (29)that I considered following in my Dad's footsteps."
The pair finally sat in the cockpit (驾驶员座舱) together and Mr Elliott made an announcement to passengers (30)that the flight made it a special day for him as he was flying with his daughter.
Miss Elliott recalled the flight,(31)saying(say),"I was initially nervous and he kept asking (32)whether I was nervous or not.It was like going for a driving lesson with him.Thankfully,everything went smoothly and the passengers loved it.If it ever happens again,I will definitely be a lot (33)more relaxed(relaxed)."
(B)
Has the world just witnessed its first ever robot suicide?Boring housework was seemingly too much for one cleaning robot to take,when it apparently rebelled and decided to end it all.
The robot was given the tiresome task of cleaning up some spilt grain before it climbed on to a kitchen hotplate (34)where it destroyed itself,according to reports in Austria.It had reportedly grown tired of (35)being forced(force) to clean the house every day and decided to become a martyr(殉道者) to the robot cause.
"Somehow it seems (36)to have restarted(restart) itself again before it made its way along the work surface.Then it pushed a cooking pot out of the way and basically that was the end of it,"explained fireman Helmut Kniewasser,who (37)was called/had been called(call) to deal with the fire at Hinterstoder in Kirchdorf."It pretty quickly started to melt underneath and then stuck to the kitchen hotplate.It then caught fire.(38)By the time we arrived,it had become just a pile of ash."He added:"The entire building (39)Itbe evacuated (疏散) and there was severe smoke damage particularly in the flat in which the robot had been in use."It's a mystery how it came to be started and ended up making its way to the hotplate."(40)had to took an hour to clean and make the building safe.The homeowner plans to charge the robot's manufacturer.

3.Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position?There's reason for saying this.In 2012,the reality talent show,the voice of China,on the Zhejiang Television became the most popular program in China.
The reaon for its popularity was really because its excellent quality?Or can we assume that without any opponent,we can't tell a contestant is winning because he is really talented or because there's no comparison?
The administrative department really contributed a lot in the popularity of the voice of China.In the past,there was no other draft shows(选秀节目) ranked as high as Super Girl and Super Boy.Even though there were some draft shows which seemed to share the popularity,it never turned out ture.All the other draft shows were shodowed by the ones on Hunan TV.One example was that since draft shows of Hunan TV were broadcast on Friday night,the draft shows of other stations were shifted to Saturday or Sunday.However,Hunan TV didn't get their permission for broadcasting shows in 2012.
And if this were not bad enough,SARFT did a great favor for it.SARFT issued a regulation,saying that all draft shows should be broadcast after 10:30 pm at night.Zhejiang TV declared long before the regulation that since was"no audition(海选),no PK,no rise in rank,no voting,no champion",its program was never a draft show.So,in 2012,all the opponents of Zhejiang TV had to broadcast their draft shows after 10:30 pm while the voice of China was permitted to be broadcast in prime time.
If you really think about it,there's no esential different between a draft show and the voice of China.It also selected people from all over the country,how did they say this were different from a draft show?No PK,really?PK doesn't mean one versus one!A team versus a team is called PK too.And"no rise in rank?"is just a switch of concepts because at the end of every game,some left the stage and some stayed.If there was really"no champion",how come there was only one"good voice of China"at the final round?All these were rising in rank,in disguise(隐性).
Under such cimcumstance,the voice of China even got praise.We are not saying that it is not a good show:we are saying that there's regret about the show since it had no opponent.

58.The following factors are important in making the voice of China popular EXCEPTA
A.the unique quality of the voice of China
B.the policy support from SARFT and the administrative department
C.the favorable broadcasting time.
D.the shortage of good opponents
59.The passage mainly tells usC
A.the draft shows of Hunan Satellite TV still cause our attention
B.the voice of China is not a real draft show
C.the reasons for Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position
D.the advantages of the voice of China
60.What's the author's attitude towards the voice of China?D
A.supportive   B.optimistic  C.hopeful   D.doubtful.
7.Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in stock,the salesman immediately finds it,and the business of trying it on follows at once.All being well,the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes.
For a man,small problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants.In that case,the saleswoman tries to sell the customer something else."I know this jacket is not the style you want,sir,but would you like to try it for size?It happens to be the colour you mentioned."Few men have patience with this treatment,and the usual response is:"This is the right colour and may be the right size,but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on."
However,a woman in almost every respect does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on need and she is only"having a look around".She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her.She will try on any number of things.Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain.Faced with a roomful of dresses,a woman may easily spend an hour going from one room to another,often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.It is a laborious process,but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

21.The underlined part"sets great store by"in paragraph 3meansC.
A.has much information about                
B.knows nothing about
C.believes in                               
D.has her doubts about
22.What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?A
A.They welcome suggestions from others.
B.They rarely consider buying cheap clothes.
C.They predict what they want to buy.
D.They listen to advice but never take it.
23.What can we learn from the passage?B
A.Men never buy what they need.
B.A man's shopping is often based on need.
C.A woman goes shopping in order to look for cheap things.
D.A woman's shopping is never based on need.
