We have called for a(n) 47 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.“ 6 / 18 Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 48 . The doctor described the 49 , which caused the burns. At 6 a.m., our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they 50 the charcoal(木炭 ), it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much petrol. The flames 51 my son's shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head. 52 , one of the boys was quick-minded, gasped my son, and 53 him on the grass. While it saved his life, there was not enough 54 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars. After he 55 from the treatments, the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容 ) for 6 months 56 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So, he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns. When I was a child, my mother told my sister who had a 10-inch very 57 scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not 58 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn't matter to you.“ I 59 this wisdom on to my son. He took my advice to 60 and returned to school with his head held high glad he was alive. By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not 61 , so he made the 62 to give up any plastic surgery. We all have “scars“ that we believe 63 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better. But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 64 standards.

You may go to an airline website and buy a ticket, and get onto an airplane that has a similar name painted on it, but half the time, you're really on a regional(地方的 ) airline. The regionals aren't held to the same safety standards as the majors: their pilots aren't required to have as much training and experience, and the public doesn't know that. Captain at a major airline If you're a nervous flier, book a morning flight. The heating of the ground later causes bumpier( 颠簸的 ) air, and it's much more likely to thunderstorm in the afternoon. Jerry Johnson, pilot, Los Angeles The smoothest place to sit is often over or near the wing. The bumpiest place to sit is in the back. If you're in the middle, you don't move as much. Patrick Smith, pilot and author of Cockpit Confidential Sit in the front if you want fresher air. The general flow of air in any airplane is from front to back. So if you're really concerned about breathing the freshest possible air or not getting too hot, sit as close to the front as you can. Planes are generally warmest in the back. Tech pilot at a regional airline, Texas 8 / 18 You never know where the safest seat is. There is no safest place to sit. In one accident, the people in the back are dead; in the next, it's the people up front. John Nance, aviation safety analyst and retired airline captain, Seattle I've been struck by lightning twice. Most pilots have. Airplanes are built to take it. You hear a big boom and see a big flash and that's it. You're not going to fall out of the sky. Charlotte, pilot for a regional carrier, North Carolina People don't understand why they can't use their cell phones. Well, what can happen is 12 people will decide to call someone just before landing, and I can get a false reading on my instruments saying that we are higher than we really are. Jim Tilmon, retired American Airlines pilot, Phoenix 66. Jerry Johnson advises nervous fliers to _. A. sit in the back B. fly in the morning C. fly with major airlines D. avoid flying in bad weather 67. The best seats for those who need fresh air are _. A. in the front B. in the middle C. in the back D. near the wing 68. Passengers' use of cellphones before landing is likely to _. A. increase the risk of being struck by lightning B. make it difficult for pilots to control the plane C. cause the instruments of the plane to break down D. affect pilots' judgment about the height of the plane B My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations, is hesitant to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool.“ But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous. 9 / 18 This has been challenging for me at times. “Shy“ is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids' triathlon(三项全 能). On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son's birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she'd need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together. And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen. She dominated(主宰 ) that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face. I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn't because she did a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn't seen before. All day I would fred myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine. Shine on, sweet baby. 69. Kelly is nervous when _. A. situations are new to her B. boys are around her C. she changes into a leader D. she is away from her mom 70. We can know from Paragraph 3 _. A. the race began in the early morning B. the whole family gave Kelly support C. Kelly was eager for her turn in the race D. Kelly prepared for her brother's birthday party 71. Seeing Kelly's performance in the race, the author felt _. A. excited and proud 10 / 18 B. anxious and uneasy C. curious and concerned D. womed and hesitant C Mars on Earth Devon Island has always been a cold and uninhabited(无人居住的 ) place in the Canadian Arctic. Day after day there are high winds and the temperature is below freezing. But for the first time, despite the terrible weather conditions, Devon Island is the new home for a group of explorers from NASA. They are living here for a few months in order to train and learn how to live and work on Mars. The group's members come from various backgrounds and nationalities, but they a
