He wanted to be a pilot and after some months he managed to get to the air force training school, where they taught pilots to fly'.There, the first thing that new students had to do was to be taken up in a plane by an experienced pi lot, to give them some ideas what it felt like. Even those who had traveled as passengers in commercial (商业的 ) airline planes before found it strange to be in the cockpit (驾驶舱)of a small fighter plane, and most of the students felt nervous.The officer who had to take the students up for their first flight allowed them to fly the plane for a few seconds if' they wanted to and if they were not too frightened to try, but be was always ready to take over as soon as the plane started to do dangerous things.George was one of those who took over the controls of the plane when he went up in it for the first time, and after the officer had taken them [Yom him again. George thought that he had better ask a few questions to show how interested he was and how much he wanted to learn to fly. There were a number of instruments (仪表) in front of him, so he chose one and asked the officer what it was. The officer looked at him strangely for a moment and then answered, "That is the clock."44. George went to the air torte training school because he wanted ______.A. to fight the warB. to flyC. to be pilotD. to be a passenger
The journey two divers(潜水员)made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth make us realize how much of the world still remains to be studied. The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small ball to find out if there are any ocean currents(水流)or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early, so that the ball would come to the surface in daylight, and so be easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it. The divers began preparations(准备)early in the morning and soon afterwards, when all was ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.The divers felt as if they were going down steps as they passed through warm and cold layers(层)of water. In time, the temperature dropped to freezing point. They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone telling how they felt. Then, at a depth(深度)of 3,000 feet, the telephone stopped working and they were quite cut off from the outside world. All went well until some four hours later at 30,000 feet, the men were frightened by a loud, cracking(爆裂)noise: even the smallest hole in the ball would have meant instant death. Luckily, though, it was only one of the outer(外部的)windows that had broken. Soon afterwards, the ball touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of "dust" made up of small dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the great water pressure(压力). But they did not dare to leave the lights on for long , as the heat from them made the water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint(微弱的)but clear voices of the divers were heard on the mother ship seven miles away. After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up, arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience.1. The purpose of the diver's journey to the deepest point on the earth was to find _____.A. if there are water currents and life in the great depthsB. if people can stand the severe cold in the great depthsC. if there are steps in the great depthsD. if the telephone works well in the great depths2. The divers set out early in the morning so that _____.A. they could return to the surface during the dayB. they could see at the bottom of the oceanC. they could avoid the cold at nightD. they could stay long at the bottom3. Which of the following statements is true?A. The ocean water temperature decreases steadily with the depthB. There are steps on the way to the bottom of the Pacific OceanC. There are steps between the water layers of different temperatureD. The water layers of different temperatures made the divers feel as if they were going down steps4. As the divers went down to the ocean floor, the telephone _____.A. kept working all the timeB. stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again after they reached the bottomC. stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working at 30,000 feetD. stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again when they returned to the same depth5. On the ocean floor, the divers found that _____.A. there was no life but some small dead sea-creaturesB. fish were swimming as freely as they do near the surfaceC. fish were not swimming freely in the dark waterD. fish were not swimming freely under the high water pressure
The first United States airmail stamp has an interesting story.Printed in 1918, this 24-cent stamp with a blue plane inside rose border became the center of much attention.One hundred of the stamps sold to the public became known as "inverts", for the plane was printed upside down.Singles of these "upside down" airmail stamps are now worth over $ 100,000.The story of these stamps began on May 14, 1918, the day after they were placed on sale.In Washington D.C., W.T.Robey, a man interested in stamps, decided to buy a sheet of the new stamps and so went to the New York Avenue branch post office in Washington.When the clerk handed him a sheet of the stamps, Robey noted that they were poorly centered.He looked at other sheets and found that none was well centered.The clerk asked Robey to return later in the day when more stamps were expected.About noon Robey came back, and the same clerk was on duty.He reached for the new sheets and handed one to Robey.The collector's heart stood still as he saw that the sheet which had been offered him had inverted centers.Excited by his find, Robey shopped other branch post offices for more sheets with inverted centers but found none.Then be told his friend of his discovery, and they, too, looked in the city's post offices - also in vain.Not being a rich man, Robey decided to cash in on his good fortune.He turned down the first offer of $ 500 from a Washington stamp shop owner and took the sheet to New York.There he planned to show it to a collector, Colonel E.H.R.Green, as well as to stamp dealers.Colonel Green was out of the city, and no one else wanted to bid on the sheet for fear that Robey's might not be the only upside down sheet.As the news of his great find spread, many people said that other such sheets had been found.These stories proved to be false.Robey left New York without having made a sale, and stopped in Philadelphia on the way home.There, dealer Eugene Klein arranged to buy the sheet for $ 15,000 and finally did buy it.Within a few days, Klein sold the sheet to Colonel Green, the same collector whom Robey had failed to contact in New York.There is a tale that the Colonel was in Texas at the time, and that Klein phoned him there and sold him the sheet, sight unseen, for $ 20,000! Robey's sheet had cost him $ 24, and his profit was $ 14,976 while Klein gained $ 5,000.Of the 100 stamps first bought by Mr.Robey, stamp collectors are now able to account for 96.What has happened to the others is not known.When a copy is offered for sale it is a major event in the stamp world.A block of four stamps has been sold for sale it is a major event in the stamp world.A block of four stamps has been sold for as much as $ 500,000.Few people have ever seen a copy.Yet no matter how much this valuable stamp is bought and sold, no owner can match the thrill that W.T.Robey had on that day in 1918 when he made America's luckiest stamp find!1、This article is about().A、the first-class stamps eighty years agoB、revenue stamps in the United StatesC、the first United States airmail stampsD、special delivery stamps2、These stamps were valuable because().A、the centers of them were "upside down"B、they were the wrong colorC、they were off centerD、there were so few of them3、When Robey told his friends of the find, they().A、tried to buy his stampsB、also went to look for such stampsC、reported Robey to the governmentD、none of the above4、The dealers knew that if there were other sheets like Robey's then ().A、Robey must be lyingB、there were no perfect onesC、the stamps were no goodD、Robey's stamps would be worthless5、Robey's stamps have seen by().A、many peopleB、no oneC、few peopleD、everyone

共用题干第三篇 The Body ThievesIn the early nineteenth century in Britain,many improvements were being made in the world of medicine.Doctors and surgeons were becoming more knowledgeable about thehuman body.Illnesses that had been fatal a few years before were now curable.However, surgeons had one problem.They needed dead bodies to cut up,or dissect(解剖).This was the only way that they could learn about the flesh and bones inside the body,and the only way to teach new surgeons to carry out operations.The job of finding these dead bodies was carried out by an unpleasant group of people called "body snatchers". They went into graveyards(墓地)at night and, using woodenshovels to make less noise,dug up any recently buried bodies.Then they took the bodies to the medical schools and sold them.A body could be sold for between £5 and £10, which was a lot of money at that time.The doctors who paid the body snatchers had an agreement with them一they never asked any questions.They did not desire to know where the bodies came from,as long as they kept arriving.The most famous of these body snatchers were two men from Edinburgh called William Burke and Wil!iam Hare.Burke and Hare were different because they did not」ust dig up bodies from graveyards.They got greedy and thought of an easier way to find bodies. Instead of digging them up,they killed the poorer guests in Hare's small hotel.Dr Knox, the respected surgeon they worked for,never asked why all the bodies they brought him had been strangled(勒死).For many years Burke and Hare were not caught because,unsurprisingly,the bodies of their victims were never found by the police.They were eventually arrested and put ontrial in 1829.The judge showed mercy to Hare and he was released but Burke was found guilty and his punishment was to be hanged.Appropriately,his body was given to the medical school and he ended up on the dissecting table,just like his victims.In one small way,justice was done.Now,over 1 50 years later,surgeons do not need the help of criminals to learn their skills.However,the science of surgery could not have developed without their rather gruesome(令人毛骨惊然的)help. The problem facing British surgeons in the early 1 9th century was thatA:some ii{nesses remained incurable.B: few people were willing to work as surgeons.C: medical expenses were too high.D:dead bodies were not easily available.
