23、   The most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer isdown.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”

“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”

“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.”

I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?”

“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”

“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”

“That’s good, sir.”

“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.

“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.”

After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?”

“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.”

“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot(飞行员) if he’s flying to Washington,” I suggested.

“I don’t know which gate to send you to. Even if the pilot goes to Washington, he can’t take you if you don’t have a ticket.”

“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”

“I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. It can’t tell me.”

24、根据下列短文及所给单词的首字母写出所缺单词。在填写答卷时，要求写出完整单词，每空限填一词。

Posture is the way a person stands, walks or sits. Because of the cultural differences in the world, the same posture may show d【1】 meanings to others.

In America, teachers often sit on the desks when teaching. But the Chinese students cannot a【2】 it because they think this will harm the dignity（庄重）of the teachers. It is c【3】 for the American students to communicate with their teachers just sitting in their chairs. While in China, the students must s【4】   up and answer the teacher questions. This is a way of showing their r【5】. In Egypt, a man who leans on the chair with his feet pointing to others will be considered rude and impolite to the Muslim. Because of the cultural differences, one should be careful in the use of posture language in o【6】 not to make misunderstandings.
