A small plane had some trouble with its engine while still in the high sky.
The pilot knew that there was nothing he could do to keep the plane long in the air. So he rushed back to where his passengers sat and explained the dangerous situation. In the end he said, “I’m a married man with two small children. I’m sorry to tell you that there are only three parachutes(降落伞) in the plane.” And with that he took up one and jumped out.
One of the passengers reacted quickly. “I’m a great statesman(政治家)!” he said. “I’ve a very bright brain and the world can’t do without me!” And with that he jumped out too.
The other two passengers, an old man and a young soldier, were quiet for a moment. “Son,” the man said, “I’m old and have lived a full life. I’m ready to meet my God.”
“You’ll have to give up that,” the young man said, smiling. “The world’s smartest man just jumped out with my backpack.”
66. What can we say about the statesman?
A. Clever but unlucky. B. Stupid but lucky.
C. Selfless. D. A great man.
67. The pilot told the passengers that ________.
A. there were three people in his family
B. it was dangerous for them to take his plane
C. he was sorry for what had happened
D. there were not enough parachutes for them all
68. By saying “I’m ready to meet my God.” the old man meant ________.
A. he didn’t want to die
B. God would come and save him
C. the young man could use the last parachute
D. the young man should give him the last parachute
69. According to the passage, who would be sure to lose his life?
A. The pilot. B. The old man.
C. The young solider. D. The great statesman.

An altimeter is an instrument used in an airplane to tell the pilot how high he is flying. The altimeter used in most airplanes is a kind of barometer, which, like barometers found in ordinary homes, is a measuring instrument for air atmosphere presses downwards everywhere. At sea level this pressure is more than 14 pounds on every square inch of the surface. The higher you go into the air, the lower the air pressure is. An altimeter measures this air pressure to show the altitude of the airplane, or, how high it is above sea level. But the altimeter does not show how high the plane is above the ground. A plane might, be flying at an altitude(高度)of 15000 feet, but, it would be only a thousand feet or so above the ground if the land in that area happened to be 14000 feet above sea level.
The pilot adjusts(调整)his altimeter to the actual sea－level pressure before leaving the airport and then corrects it in flight by new information given to him by radio. He flies high enough to above any mountain he may pass on his course. The barometer altimeter is correct within about 300 feet.
Another kind of altimeter, the radio altimeter, makes use of radio reflection. It calculates the height of the flying plane by sending out electrical signals to the surface below and measuring the time required for them to bounce back(弹回). It is correct within 15 feet over water, but is not reliable(可信的)over land. Big planes usually have both kinds of altimeter.
1．The passage mainly introduces ________.
[ ]
A．the barometer altimeter and air altimeter
B．the sea－level altimeter and the radio altimeter
C．the barometer altimeter and the radio altimeter
D．the air altimeter and the sea－level altimeter
2．Suppose a plane using a radio altimeter is flying 10 000 meters above a highland which is 4 000 meters above sea level. What reading will be given by the altimeter?
[ ]
3．Suppose a plane using both kinds of altimeters is flying over a mountainous area where the land rises and falls very abruptly. The pilot keeps his plane steady at the same height. What kind of reading will you get on each of the altimeters?
[ ]
A．The readings on both altimeters will remain steady.
B．The readings on both altimeters will rise and fall abruptly.
C．The reading on the barometer altimeter will rise and fall abruptly, while that on the radio altimeter will remain steady.
D．The reading on the radio altimeter will rise and fall abruptly, while that on the barometer altimeter will remain steady:
4．How does the radio altimeter compare with the barometer altimeter when a plane is flying over an ocean?
[ ]
