The most frightening words in the English language are “Our computer is down”. You hear it 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 at the counter and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do you usually 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 right, 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 is 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(备用的) computer, I said, “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?”
“I can’t tell without asking the computer.”
“Maybe I can just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington.” I suggested.
“I don’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot is going to Washington, he can’t take you if you don’t have a ticket.”
“Is there any other flight to Washington within the next few hours?”
“I don’t know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. But it can’t tell me now.”
By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The words spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people left, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.
24. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. When in trouble, ask the computer to help you.
B. The computer system of the airport.
C. An unpleasant experience for a passenger at an airport.
D. Getting help from others when the computer is down.
25. What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?
A. She could know how long the computer would down
B. She could do nothing
C. She could sell a ticket
D. She could write out a ticket
26. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. The girl didn’t want to write him a ticket.
B. If the writer didn’t have a ticket, the pilot wouldn’t take him.
C. The writer could go to the gate and ask the pilot to take him to Washington.
D. The computer would be OK in just 10 minutes.
27. The last paragraph suggests that ______.
A. a modern computer won’t be down
B. computers can take the place of humans
C. sometimes a computer may bring suffering to people
D. facing the situations, all the passengers kept calm
Ｃ
It’s so beautiful outside that spending the day in the office would be very boring. So why not take the vacations(假期)off? A new survey(调查)found that 31﹪of U.S workers don’t always take all of their vacation days. Americans have 12 vacation days on average(平均)each year, but they give back an average of 3 vacation days each year.
So why don’t they use up their vacation days? Some say they would rather get money back for their unused days; some busy workers say they just can’t leave their work. Americans have fewer vacation days than workers in any other country surveyed.
The French take their vacations seriously. French workers get an average of 39 vacation days, and 40﹪ plan to take at least one three-to-four-week vacation.
Workers in Sweden receive an average of 25 vacation days a year, but they can’t find time to use them all. More workers there return vacation days than any other country surveyed.
British workers have the longest working week in Europe(欧洲),with 23 vacation days --the shortest vacation. So they feel overworked.75﹪ say their weekends or vacations are too short and 40﹪ would sacrifice a day’s pay(工资)for one more vacation day.
28. How many vacation days do Americans have on average each year in fact?

D. British workers have the shortest vacation days of all the countries surveyed.
Ｄ
Three Boys and a Dad
Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,” he’d told his wife. “I’ll look after the kids, and you can go visit your mom.”
Things started well, but just after eight o’clock, his three little “good kids”—Mike, Randy, and Alex—came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.” When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat（节拍）. Mike chanted “Where’s my toast, where’s my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom, while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o’clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils. Randy, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room，but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare centre (日托所）.“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” because Brad was smiling.
32. When his wife left home, Brad expected to .
A. go out for a walk in the park B. watch TV talk show with his children
C. enjoy his first day off work D. read the newspaper to his children
33. Which of the following did Randy do?
A. Drawing on the wall B. Eating apple jam
C. Feeding the fish. D. Reading in a room
34. Why did Brad ask the daycare centre for help?
A. Because he wanted to clean up his house.
B. Because he suddenly had to go to his office
C. Because he found it hard to manage his boys home.
D. Because he had to take his wife back
35. This text is developed ______ . .
A. by space B. by comparison C. by process D. by time
