I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film -it wanted somebody as well known as Paul - he stood up for me. I don’t know howmany people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents orthe studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its rootin the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from atradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft（技艺）and focused ondigging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualitiesand virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, andmaking fun of each other - but always with an underlying affection. Those werealso at the core（核心）of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, youshould put something back - he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in theWall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and theinstitute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all thatregularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each otherfinancially and by showing up at events.
I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in zxx.k and outof the hospital.He and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn’t talk aboutit.Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.
24.Why was the studio unwilling to givethe role to author at first?
A.Paul Newman wanted it.                 B.The studio powers didn’tlike his agent.
C.He wasn’t famous enough.              D.The director recommendedsomeone else.
25.Why did Paul and the author have alasting friendship?
A.They were of the same dge.             B.They worked in the same theater.
C.They were both good actors.            D.They han similar charactertics.
26.What does the underlined word “that” inparagraph 3 refer to?
A.Their belief.                             B.Their care forchileden.
C.Their success.                            D.Their support for each other.

   Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its newflying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to itsgoal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle-named theTransition – has two seats， four wheels and wings thatfold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on theroad and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.
Around 100 peoplehave already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go onsale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces theTransition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’texpect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000.Andit won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.
Inventors havebeen trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, anairline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyoneto making the flying car a reality. The govemment has already permitted thecompany to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. TheTransition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federalsafety standards.
Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the FederalAviation  Administration’s decision fiveyears ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, whichare lower than those pilots of larger planes Terrafugia says an owner wouldneed to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly theTransition, a requirement pilots would find redatively easy to meet.
28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The basic dataof the Transition.     B. The advantagesof flying cars.
C. The potentialmarket for flying cars.  C. The designersof the Transition.
29. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in toomany driveways?
A. It causestraffic jams.             B. It isdifficult to operate.
C. It is veryexpensive.               D. It bums toomuch fuel.
30. What is the government’s attitude to thedevelopment of the flying car?
A.Cautious                       B.Favorable.
C.Ambiguous.                     D. Disapproving.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Flying Car atAuto Show          B. The Transition’sFist Flight
C.Pilots’DreamComing True         D. Flying Car Closerto Reality

When a leafy plant is under attack ，itdoesn’t  sit quietly. Back in 1983,twoscientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees gettingbitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get.These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant  and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pumpthrough the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organiccompounds,VOCs for short.
   Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when beingattacked .It’s a plant’s way of crying out.But is anyone listening?Apparently.Becausewe can watch the neighbours react.
  Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others dodouble duty .They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects whoare natural enemies to the attackers.Once they arrive,the tables are turned.The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
  Instudy after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help theneighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but theneighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm andknew what to do.
   Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know.Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to itsown branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighborsjust happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but itwasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.
CharlesDarwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and moreintimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Oursenses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.
32. What does a plant do when it is underattack?
A. It makes noises.     B.It gets help from other plants.
C. It stands quietly    D. It sends out certain chemicals.
33. What does the author mean by “thetables are turned” in paragraph 3?
A. The attackers get attacked.
B. The insects gather under the table.
C. The plants get ready to fight back.
D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.
34.Scientists find from their studies thatplants can           .
A.predict natural disasters  B.protect themselves against insects
C.talk to one another intentionally D.helptheir neighbors when necessary
35.what can we infer from the lastparagraph?
A.The word is changing faster than ever.
B.People have stronger senses than before
C.The world is more complex than it seems
D.People in Darwin’s time were moreimaginative.
