    When I stepped out the plane from Miami into Charlotte, North Carolina, airport for a connecting flight home, I immediately knew something was wrong. Lots of desperate people crowded the terminal. I quickly learned that flights headed to the Northeast were called off because of a storm. The earliest they could get us out of Charlotte was Tuesday. It was Friday. A gate agent stood on the counter and shouted, “Don’t ask us for help! We cannot help you!”
    I joined a crowd that ran from terminal to terminal in search of a flight out. Eventually, I found six strangers willing to rent a van with me. We drove through the night to Washington, where I took a train the rest of the way to Providence.
    The real problem, of course, is that incidents like this happen every day, to everyone who flies, more and more often. It really gets to me, though, because for eight years I was on the other side, as a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines (TWA).
    I know the days are gone when attendants could be written up if we did not put the lines napkins with the TWA logo in the lower right-hand corner of the first-class diners’ trays. As are the days when there were three dinner options on flights from Boston to Los Angeles in economy class. When, once, stuck on a tarmac（机场停机坪）in Newark for four hours, a planeload of passengers got McDonald’s hamburgers and fries by thoughtfulness of the airline. I have experienced the decline of service along with the rest of the flying public. But I believe everything will change little by little, because I remember the days when to fly was to soar (翱翔). The airlines, and their employees, took pride in how their passengers were treated. And I think the days are sure to come back one day in the near future.
    小题1:Many people crowded the terminal because _______.
    A．they were ready to board on the planes
    B．something was wrong with the terminal
    C．the flights to the Northeast were canceled
    D．the gate agent wouldn’t help the passengers
    小题2: How did the writer get to Providence at last?___
    A．by airB．by van
    C．by trainD．by underground
    小题3:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?______
    A．Incidents happened to those who fly quite often.
    B．The writer used to be a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines.
    C．Even a small mistake might cause complaints from passengers in the past.
    D．McDonald’s hamburgers and fries were among regular dinner options.
    小题4:What can be implied from the passage?____
    A．The writer lived in Charlotte, North Carolina.
    B．The writer thought the service was not as good as it used to be.
    C．The writer with other passengers waited to be picked up patiently.
    D．Passengers would feel proud of how they were treated on the plane.

    Linus Pauling，the only person who has won two undivided Nobel Prizes，was born in Portland，Oregon. He attended Washington High School but because of an unimportant detail he did not receive his diploma until 1962，long after he had received his Bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from Orgon State College in 1922. He had chosen to study his major because he could get a good job with it.
    He won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1954 for his research into the nature of the chemical bond and its application to the explanation of the structure of complex substance. His interest in the “behavior” of molecules(分子) led him from physical chemistry to biological chemistry，especially of the human body. He began with proteins and their main parts，the amino acids(氨基酸)，which are called the“building blocks of life”．In 1950，he constructed the first satisfactory model of a protein molecule，a discovery very important to the understanding of the living cell.
    During World WarⅡ，Pauling was a member of the Research Board for National Security，for which he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Merit in 1948. However，the use of the atomic bomb near the end of the war turned Pauling in a new direction. Having long worked on the structure of molecules，he took an immediate interest in the deadly effects of nuclear fallout on human molecular structures.
    From then on，Pauling protested the production of the hydrogen bomb and supported the prevention of the spread of nuclear weapons. Through his efforts，The Nuclear­Test­Ban Treaty，declaring all nuclear tests to be illegal except underground ones，came into effect on October 10,1963，the same day Linus Pauling was awarded the Nobel Peace.
    小题1:From the first Paragraph，we learn that Linus Pauling________.
    A．didn’t study hard while in Washington High School
    B．is the only scientist who has won two Nobel Prizes
    C．was once badly treated in Washington High School
    D．chose to study chemical engineering to earn his living
    小题2:Which of the following things did Pauling pay much attention to at first?
    A．The “behavior” of molecules.B．Physical chemistry.
    C．Biological chemistry.D．The human body.
    小题3:Which of the following is legal according to The Nuclear­Test­Ban Treaty?
    A．The use of nuclear weapons.
    B．Testing hydrogen bomb on the ground.
    C．Testing hydrogen bomb on underground.
    D．The production of hydrogen bombs.
    小题4:The main idea of the passage is to show________.
    A．Linus Pauling’s attitude towards nuclear weapons
    B．Linus Pauling’s contributions to the world
    C．Linus Pauling’s research on the structure of molecules
    D．Linus Pauling’s got the Nobel Prize for Peace

    Few of us haven’t read Cinderella, the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams. Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone’s heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity(默默无闻).
    Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school.
    Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes completely when a famous teenager pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.
    Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joey’s paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams. Of course, there is a wicked(邪恶的) stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn’t get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her.
    The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful. There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies.
    “The movie takes the Cinderella fairytale as its jumping off point,” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson. “The focus is firmly on following your dream.”
    小题1:The first paragraph is mainly to ____________.
    A．build interest and lead us to Mary’s secret dream
    B．remind us why Cinderella is popular all the years
    C．inform us of the main topic of the whole passage
    D．tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is
    小题2:In the movie, Mary Santiago is the main character who _____________.
    A．is brave in expressing her love
    B．is attended badly by the stepmother
    C．has a dream of meeting a prince
    D．is embarrassed by the pop singer
    小题3: What can we infer from the passage?
    A．Joey is just like other boys in Mary’s class.
    B．Mary’s mother influences her a lot in singing.
    C．Not many people have a dream to be realized.
    D．The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary.
    小题4:The passage is mainly about ___________.
    A．an introduction to a film
    B．a review about a film
    C．an essay about dreams
    D．an advertisement of Cinderella
    小题5:According to the passage, Another Cinderella Story ________.
    A．follows Cinderella with nothing new
    B．pays more attention to the looks of the actors
    C．encourages young people to follow their dreams
    D．focuses more on materialism than other films
