24、   Uber has picked Melbourne as the first city outside of the United States to test its flying taxis. Test flights in the Australian city will begin next year with a goal of commercial ride-hailing （打车） services by 2023, it announced on Tuesday, in November 2016.

“We will see other Australian cities following soon after,” Susan Anderson, Uber’s regional manager for Australia, said at the company’s annual flying car conference in Washington DC.

Melbourne will be the third city to host trials of Uber’s flying taxis, after Dallas, Texas, and Los Angeles, California. The electric taxis will be flown by a pilot.

Uber has partnered with NASA for its flying taxi program, named Elevate, and is one of several companies racing to make flying vehicles a reality. Other big names in the business include Rolls Royce and Boeing.

Even as it works on developing autonomous, electric flying vehicles, which are still several years away, Uber is taking its service to the skies in other ways.

The company will start a helicopter service on July 9, taking passengers from Manhattan to JFK Airport in eight minutes. It says customers who buy the roughly $200 ticket will save an hour of travel time during rush hour.

But the rollout（首次展示） of that service is now clouded by safety concerns about increased air traffic in cities, following two accidents in New York City in recent weeks.

A helicopter crashed onto the roof of a Manhattan building on June 10, killing the pilot. This deadly accident came weeks after a helicopter crash in the Hudson River. There were no deaths in that incident.

“For us, it shows the need to make safety the absolute base of everything we do,” said Eric Allison, Uber’s head of Elevate.

Safety will also be a concern in Australia, where Uber has nearly 4 million regular customers for its ride-hailing service.

“We will continue to work with communities and governments to ensure that we create an urban aviation（飞行） ride-share network that is safe, quiet and green,” Anderson said.

【1】What can we learn about the flying taxis from the text?

A．Most flying taxis are self-driving.

B．The flying taxi was first tried out in Melbourne.

C．Flying taxis could be used in Australia in several years.

D．The flying taxis turned out to be a failure in America.

【2】Why does the author mention Uber’s helicopter service?

A．To further introduce NASA’s cooperation with Uber.

B．To show the challenges facing the flying taxi service.

C．To explain why Uber’s technology stands out.

D．To describe the development of Uber ’s flying services.

【3】What is the author’s major concern about flying taxis?

A．Safety.

B．Management.

C．Side effects.

D．Affordability.

【4】What is the author’s attitude toward the flying taxi?

A．His information is based on facts.

B．He doubles about it.

C．He disagrees with it.

D．He is hopeful about it and expecting good things to happen on it.

25、   Many people have been making fun of Paris Hilton online recently. The 36-year-old US actress and model said on social media that she “invented” the selfie (自拍) in 2006, posting a photo of her and Britney Spears as “proof”. Internet users immediately proved her wrong, posting evidence (证据)of selfies that appeared much earlier in history.

In one example, a user posted a selfie that Buzz Aldrin, the famous astronaut, took a picture of himself in space in 1966. But perhaps the funniest example was a black-and-white selfie that was taken by American photographer Robert Cornelius in 1839. It is quite possibly the first selfie ever taken in history.

Why do people love to take selfies so much? Is it because we’re naturally vain (虚荣的) and proud? Maybe it’s actually the opposite--perhaps we feel insecure (没有安全感的) or shy. So we take photos of ourselves, post them online and wait for people to give us compliments (称赞).

Taking selfies can be dangerous, though. For example, if you take one while you’re on holiday and post it online, some thieves might see it and know that you aren’t home. They then might break into your home and steal your things while you’re away.

There are even people who have died while taking selfies. According to Forbes magazine, 127 people around the world died while taking selfies from 2014 to 2016. It can be very dangerous to take selfies while standing near high places, like roofs and cliffs (悬崖). Taking selfies underwater or on train tracks is also quite dangerous. So be careful out there if you decide to take some.

【1】The underlined word “proof” in Paragraph 1 means ________.

A.消息 B.证据 C.例子 D.历史

【2】Which may be the earliest selfie, according to the story?

A.Paris Hilton and Britney Spears’ selfie. B.Buzz Aldrin’s selfie in space.

C.A color photo taken by an American scientist. D.A black-and-white photo of Robert Cornelius.

【3】What is the main idea of the third paragraph?

A.Paris Hilton is insecure and shy. B.Why people enjoy taking selfies.

C.Why people are naturally vain. D.Taking selfies is a good way to make friends.

【4】What can we learn from paragraphs 4 and 5?

A.Taking selfies can be dangerous.

B.There are no advantages to taking selfies.

C.Every year, 127 people die from taking selfies, on average.

D.Taking selfies near cliffs is more dangerous than underwater.

【5】If you are the writer, what will you write at the end of the passage?

A.Selfies have been around for longer than you think.

B.There is no need to take selfies near high places.

C.No selfie is worth risking your life for— no matter how good it might look.

D.People will lose their lives while taking selfies.

28、   Americans with small families usually own a small car. A car can carry only four persons at most, while a big van(厢型车) can e【1】 hold as many as seven persons.

Mr. Hagen and his wife didn’t think of buying a van u【2】 they had a third child last year. They usually go on a holiday with their grandparents. Without a van, big family like the Hagens can almost go n【3】.

Therefore, in America, vans are very popular. For a big family like the Hagens, when the family members i【4】 from five to seven, the small car is usually sold and they may buy a bigger vehicle, such as a van.

I didn’t ________ any time—I took one step in the door and said, “Dad, I just came over to tell you that I ________ you.”

Believe it or not, it seemed like a magic. Before my eyes, my father’s face softened (变软), the wrinkles (皱纹) seemed to ________ and he began to cry. He hugged me and said excitedly, “I LOVE YOU too, my dear son, ________ I’ve never been able to say it.” Seeing this unforgettable sight, Mom walked by ________ tears in her eyes.
