第一节 阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A

In some movies, you might see people traveling between cities in tubes (胶囊). These “tube trains” are even faster than planes. People can get to one place from another in minutes. One US company is working to make these trains a reality (现实).

Virgin Hyperloop is now building its own tube trains. On Nov 8, the company said that it had successfully tested its tube trains for the first time, the BBC reported. In the test, two people traveled down a 500-meter test track (轨道) in 15 seconds. They got to a speed of about 160 km per hour.

However, this isn’t the final (最终的) goal of the company. It hopes to make tube trains that can get to a speed of 1,000 km per hour, CBS News noted.

But who gets the idea? Elon Musk, founder (创始人) of US space company SpaceX, suggested building tube trains back in 2013. He said people could sit in small pods (分离舱) and travel in tubes. The company would use magnets (磁力) to move the pods.

According to Musk, the pods would be able to move quickly because they would be floating (悬浮) on air inside the tube. There would be very little fiction (摩擦力) to slow them down.

11. What do we know about the tube train?

A. It is traveling between cities in the us now.

B. It can go up to 1,000 km per hour now.

C. You can see the tube trains in movies.

D. It is slower than other trains.

12. The final goal of the company is to make tube trains that can reach the speed of _______.

A.160 km per hour      B. 500 km per hour

C. 1,000 km per hour      D.15 km per hour

13. How did the company test its tube train?

A. People traveled on the train for an hour.

B. Two people traveled 500 meters on the train.

C. People rode the train for 15 seconds between cities.

D. Two people traveled 160 km on the train.

14. Which of the following sentence is true?

A. All the “tube trains” are slower than planes.

B. Three people traveled down the test track in the test.

C. Elon Musk started the US space company SpaceX.

D. The pods would be floating on air outside the tube.

15. What is the best title of this passage?

A. Tube trains becoming a reality (现实)  B. Travelling in tube trains

C. Who build tube trains?     D. A successful company

Life in the 2050s will be different from it is now, because many changes will take place. What will the changes be?

The population is growing fast. There will be more and more people in the world and most of them will live longer.

Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least one in every home. And computer study will be one of the important subjects in schools.

People will work fewer hours, but have more free time for sports, TV and traveling. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many people will go to other countries for holiday.

There will be changes in our food, too. Because more and more people know the importance of healthy diet, maybe no one will eat meat. They will eat more vegetables and fruit. So people will be healthier. Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this, many people won’t have enough work to do.

In the 1920s and 30s the airlines were just beginning.It was unusual for people to travel by air because it was expensive and dangerous.In those days，there were no flight attendants to look after the passengers.Young men，or “stewards” helped the passengers onto the airplane and carried the passengers’ luggage (行李) but they did not provide food and drinks. But then in 1930,a woman called Ellen Church invented the “stewardess”.

Ellen Church was born in 1904 on a farm in Iowa.She was a different child.She didn’t want to work on a farm or marry a farmer—she wanted a more adventurous (冒险的) life.Ellen studied to be a nurse at the University of Minnesota and then got a job in a hospital.For the next few years she stayed at the hospital but also took flying lessons and got her pilot’s license.

Ellen was twenty-five years old when she first got in touch with Boeing Air Transport.She loved flying but she understood that airlines were a man’s world.Although women like Emelia Earheart were becoming famous,she realized it was impossible for a woman to have a career as a pilot.But she had another idea.Most people were frightened of flying because flying was still an unreliable (不可靠的) way to travel.There were often delays (延误),many crashes and the bad weathers made many passengers sick.Ellen thought nurses could take care of passengers during flights and B.A.T. agreed.

The young woman from Iowa and seven other nurses became the first air stewardesses.

At first pilots were unhappy because they did not want stewardesses on airplanes，but passengers loved the stewardesses.In 1940 there were around 1,000 of them working for different airlines.The early “stewardesses” had to be under twenty-five-year-old,single and slim.When a woman joined an airline,she had to promise not to get married or have children.It was a hard job and not well paid.They worked long hours and earned ＄1 an hour.

In the 1970s,stewardesses were unhappy in their job and airlines had to make some changes.Since the 1970s,“stewards” and “stewardesses” have been called flight attendants.They are well paid and work fewer hours than in the past.

21.The last sentence of the first paragraph suggests that ___________.

A.the word “stewardess” was made up by Ellen Church

B.Ellen Church was the first woman who flew a plane

C.Ellen Church was the first woman who worked on a plane

D.Ellen Church was the first woman passenger on a plane

22.From the second paragraph,we learn that ___________.

A.Ellen did not behave in the same way as most other girls

B.Ellen’s family was not rich enough to support her education

C.Ellen was fond of working as a nurse in the hospital

D.Ellen had an unhappy childhood that changed her completely

23.The main reason for Boeing Air Transport offering Ellen the job was ___________.

A.her flying experience

B.her university education

C.her nursing experience

D.her life attitudes

24.According to the passage,in the 1940s a woman had to ___________ if she wanted to be a stewardess.

A.be a nurse  B.be married   C.be a mother   D.be young

25.The passage mainly talks about ___________.

A.the background of early flying pilots

B.the experience of flying passengers

C. the history of early flight attendants

  D. the development of airplanes

IV.   Dear Stephen,

I am writing to tell you about my problem with my teacher. I don’t know how to deal with it and I need your help.   

You know I am crazy about space travel. In my spare time I often go to the library to find something to read. This makes my teacher very angry. To him, good marks are everything and I should spend more time on my lessons, even at weekends.

I think healthy hobbies are helpful for our studies. If I can achieve a balance between my schoolwork and my hobby, it will be of great value to my future development. But I don’t think my teacher understands me. I feel bad about that.

    What shall I do? Can you offer me some suggestions? I am looking forward to your early reply.

    Best wishes.

                                                                      Yours,
