A
Have you ever had a panic attack in mid-flight? Those that have will tell you it’s not fun. And there are plenty of reasons that make people panic. Some of them focus on the state of the pilot. Are they tired? Stressed? Paying enough attention?
Would these people feel any better if we could get rid of pilots altogether?
The technology already seems to be there—drones are not a new invention. Armies use drones in war zones, where they are controlled remotely. Even helicopters can be pilotless, and delivers aid supplies to dangerous locations.
Aircraft accidents are rare today, but when they happen they are getting harder and harder to solve. That’s why investigations often focus on “human factors”, identifying psychological and physiological issues as a probable cause.
At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January, Chinese company Ehang displayed the first-ever passenger drone. To fly, the passenger needs to set up a flight plan, click “take off” and “land” on a tablet, and the computer does the rest. There are other similar efforts to develop personal air transport systems in the US and the UK. But be it a plane that’s controlled remotely or by an artificial intelligence system, whether it’s just a passenger pressing a button or a ground crew pulling the wireless strings, one fundamental question hasn’t been answered yet: Would we feel at ease flying it we can’t see two smartly dressed pilots inside, calmly providing us with weather updates during a storm?
It appears that people are more comfortable with a pilot directly at the controls, and on the plane. People are of the opinion that being in the vehicle while controlling it is easier than controlling it remotely.
There is also one worry: the risk of the unmanned plane getting hacked (黑客攻击). It would be necessary to have not only preventive but also recovery measure—to stop an attack from happening and “rescue” the aircraft during a hack.
Today, it might be difficult for people to accept unmanned planes because when a plane stops, it falls out of the sky. And of course, many people are already nervous about flying, while not many of us are nervous about riding in a car or on a train.
1、Which does the passage suggest is among the advantages of pilotless planes?
A.Passengers’ safety will be ensured.
B.We’ll have exactly punctual flights.
C.Pilots’ conditions can be excluded.
D.They can offer a comfortable flight.
2、The present problem with pilotless planes seems to be ________.
A.producing appropriate planes B.cutting the cost of operation
C.improving current technology D.getting passengers on board
3、It is obvious that the passage intends to ________.
A.throw doubt upon unmanned planes
B.analyze the value of pilotless planes
C.show us a wonder of new technology
D.teach us how to fly unmanned planes
B
A few months ago, I decided that I was going to treat myself to a 4-day getaway from Los Angeles and visit Chicago. I got a free airplane ticket, but had to pay the hotel in cash, which I really couldn’t afford. I found a travel website where a discounted 3-night stay was purchased from a recently opened hotel.
About three weeks before the trip, I had to regretfully cancel and only then did I realize the room, while transferable to another person, couldn’t be changed to a later date and wasn’t refundable. For the next two weeks I tried selling it on Craig’s list with no success. Five days before the “big weekend”, I gave up trying to get any money back and decided I’d contact some acquaintances who live in Chicago and offer someone a free “staycation”. After trying a handful of people, all of whom already had their own plans, I was determined to have the room not go to waste.
That’s when it suddenly occurred to me that I was looking at the rooms in the wrong way. Instead of viewing them for vacation purposes, surely there must be a way to put them to good use, and that was when the idea that some sort of shelter might be able to use it hit me. I eventually found one whose focus is aiding victims of domestic violence. This particular one was willing to listen to my out-of-left-field story and made it easier to transfer the rooms. The shelter was working with a desperate woman and her daughter, who were fortunately able to make use of the room. I was later told by the shelter “they had a blast”.
1、We can learn from paragraph 1 that the author ______.
A.had a tight budget for his holiday
B.bought his flight ticket using cash
C.planned to go on business in Chicago
D.ordered a 4-day getaway from a website
2、What was the author’s first choice when he realized the situation?
A.Making the trip himself.
B.Doing a favor to a friend.
C.Complaining to the authority.
D.Getting his money back.
3、What did the author finally do with his room reservation?
A.He sold it to someone on vacation.
B.He donated it to needy strangers.
C.He put it off to a later holiday time.
D.He used it for domestic violence.
4、From the underlined sentence in the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.
A.the author was unhappy with the result
B.the program was shocked by the event
C.the women were grateful for the room
D.the shelter was asking for more rooms
5、What do you think of the author?
A.Rich and considerate.
B.Fortunate and humorous.
C.Kind-hearted and determined.
D.Modest and optimistic.
