Passage One
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
　　Cabin attendants must learn about the safety equipment of the airplane in which they are flying. They must know how to get passengers out quickly and safely if there should be an accident. And，most important，they must be able to keep the passengers calm in an emergency.
　　All cabin attendants must be able to give first aid. This is the help that is given to a sick or hurt person before regular medical treatment from a doctor can be obtained. Such treatment can often save a person’s life if it is given quickly. Learning to give first-aid is an important part of a cabin attendant’s training.
　　A cabin attendant says，“What I’m doing is an interesting job，and we meet many interesting people. We get to see different places. But it’s not all fun. We live out of suitcases，and we serve hundreds of meals each day. A cabin attendant has to enjoy taking care of and serving people.” She continuesEven under the best conditions，taking care of a plane full of hungry and thirsty people is not easy. But we have to stay calm and pleasant all the time. This is especially important when bad weather makes a flight rough or bumpy，when a plane is late，or when there is an emergency.”
　　Another cabin attendant adds，“Passengers spend more time with flight attendants than with any other airline employee. The service the passengers receive on board the plane determines whether or not they will fly again on one of our airplanes. We want them to continue to be customers of our airline. So it is important that we give them good and courteous service.”

Passage Two
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
　　While catering generally received high marks from most of the cabin attendants responding，there were a number of highly critical comments.
　　Cost and packaging are generally still big issues. A catering order for breakfast and lunch for six，excluding expensive wines and imported items，can usually be a little too high for the passengers.
　　One cabin attendant listed as frequent problems spoiled and out of date dairy products，incorrect orders and late deliveries. And she added，With the prices charged by caterers in major metropolitan section，it isn’t unreasonable to expect an order to be complete，exact，fresh and of the highest quality and on time.
　　One caterer has “beautiful and delicious food，” but the packaging isn’t flight attendant friendly because they package hot and cold items together，as well as hot items together that require different heating or cooking times. Then cabin attendants have to go through the entire order and repackage it before the passengers get aboard. This happens regardless of the order request.
　　Other specific complaints included: store-bought cookies passed off as homemade and failure to make use of the Internet for placing and confirming orders.
　　In conclusion，the survey suggests that while cabin attendants are generally satisfied with the overall performance of business aviation caterers，although there are unforgiving of mistakes. And they are almost unanimous in pointing out that it takes only one mistake to ruin a flight or lose their job.
　　Catering is critical，getting the order right and getting it to the airplane on time is key. The most difficult part of a meal service is the preparation. Actually serving the meal is simple by comparison.
