Charles Plumb, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, was a jet fighter pilot in Vietnam. After 75 combat missions, his plane was     by a surface-to-air missile. Plumb was     and spent six years in prison in Vietnam. He survived and now      about lessons learned from that experience.

  One day, Plumb and his wife were sitting in a restaurant when a man at another table came up and said, "You're Plumb! You    jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier (航空母舰) Kitty Hawk . You were      !"

"How in the world did you know that?" asked Plumb.

  "I      your parachute," the man replied. Plumb gasped(倒吸一口气) in surprise and     .The man pumped his hand and said, "I guess it worked!"

Plumb assured him, "It     did—if your chute hadn't worked, I wouldn't be here today."

Plumb couldn't sleep that night,thinking about that man. He says, "I wondered how many times I might have passed him      the Kitty Hawk. I wondered how many times I might have seen him and not even said 'Good morning, how are you', or anything     , you see, I was a fighter pilot and he was just a      ."

Plumb thought of the many days the sailor had spent on a long wooden table in the bowels(深处)of the ship      working on each chute, holding in his hands each time the      of someone he didn't know.

  Plumb asks his      , "Who's packing your     ? Everyone has someone who provides what they need to make it      the day." Plumb also says that he needed many kinds of parachutes when his plane was shot down—he needed his      parachute, his mental parachute, his emotional parachute, and his spiritual parachute. He called on all these      before reaching safety. His experience reminds us all to     and be kind to people who pack our daily parachutes, and strengthen us to go through      times.

 (衡阳市八中2008届高三模拟试题B篇)

Skipping classes, particularly big lectures where an absence is likely to go undetected, is a tradition among college undergraduates.

These days, however, some professors say they’re seeing more absenteeism, as students make the most of new technologies as learning aids.

Americ Azevedo taught an “ Introduction to Computers ” at the University of California, Berkeley, US last semester. By visiting the course’s website, the 200 enrolled students could download audio recordings or watch digital videos of the lectures, as well as read the instructor’s detailed lecture notes.

But there was one big problem: So many of the undergraduates relied on the technology that at times only 20 or so actually showed up for class.

Doug Suda, 19, a student in Azevedo’s class last semester, said he skipped about three-quarter of the lectures. It’s largely because he was busy with an off-campus job and was taking the course to fulfill a business major requirement.

At the end of the term, Suda prepared hurriedly for the final exam by watching videos of about 15 lectures over three days.

“ If I hadn’t that… I would probably fail the class,” said Suda, who instead received a B-plus.

Despite the concerns about absenteeism, schools are increasingly experimenting with ways to let students watch or listen to lectures on their computers or digital music players, like ipods. Last month, Harvard Medical School began “ Podcasting ”lectures. Students can download them into digital musical players, and study while they, say, go for a walk.

As many academics accept the electronic innovation, others are pushing back. To encourage attendance, they are applying low-tech tactics, like giving more surprising quizzes or cutting back their online offerings.

Lee Chanian, a UCLA economics professor, says “ too much technology leads to passive learning environment and encourage more absenteeism”. He now puts fewer lecture materials online, and provides extensive notes only for the most complicated topics.

60.The word “ absenteeism ” in the 2nd paragraph most probably means      .

A. attending classes                B. having classes

C. giving classes                   D. skipping classes

61.At times only 20 or so undergraduates showed up for Americ Azevedo’s class because     .

A. so many undergraduates relied on digital learning aids 

B. so many undergraduates have off-campus jobs.

C. his lectures were boring               D. the exam was easy to pass

62.According to the passage, to encourage attendance, some academics are applying the following lower-tech tactics EXCEPT     .

  A. giving more surprise quizzes          

B. putting fewer lecture materials online

C. providing extensive notes only for the most complicated topics 

D. cutting off their online offerings

63.What could be the best title for this passage?

A. Lectures fight digital learning aids to up class numbers   

B. Lectures apply digital learning aids to up class numbers

C. Lectures fight lower-tech tactics to up class numbers

D. Schools are encouraging more absenteeism
