Ⅳ.阅读理解
A Canadian university student has done what Leonardo daVinci(达·芬奇)had only dreamt of: Piloting a humanpowered“ wing－flapping” plane! Called an ornithopter, and the inspiration for modern－day helicopters, the machine was first sketched by Leonardo da Vinci way back in 1485 and never actually built. X| k |B| 1 . c| O |m
Todd Reichert, an engineering student at the University of Toronto，made history by carrying out the flight in his ornithopter—named Snowbird—for 19.3 seconds and covering 475.72 feet. Snowbird is made from carbon fiber，balsa wood and foam. The 92. 59 pounds vehicle maintained an average speed of 15.91 miles per hour.
Todd and his plane made the accomplishment on August 2,2010, at the Great Lakes Gliding Clum in Tottenham, Ontario. The crew kept the achievement quiet for nearly two months to get the data finalized. Todd and some 30 other students had been working on the plane for 4 years.
Todd endured a year－long exercise program in which he lost 18 lbs，to prepare for the flight. Because the plane has a wingspan of 104 feet—which is comparable to that of a Boeing 737—the pilot had to pedal with his legs all while pulling on the wings to flap at the same time. And he had to do it fast enough to fly!
“Our original goal was to complete this sort of original aeronautical dream to fly like a bird，”said the 28­year­old Reichert yesterday. “The idea was to fly under your own power by flapping your wings.”
The flight, witnessed by the Federation Aeronautique International, is the first officially confirmed flight in an ornithopter.
“Thousands of people have tried to do this for hundreds of years ，”said Reichert. “To be honest, I don't think it's really set in yet that I'm the one who has been successful. I was pushing with everything I had. When I finally let go and landed，I was hit with great excitement. It was pretty wild.”
I bet it was, Todd !
文章大意：本文主要介绍了一位加拿大大学生和他的同伴驾驶人力飞机创造历史的经历以及这次事件的意义。
1. Why was Leonardo da Vinci referred to in the first paragraph?
A．Because he was a famous artist.
B．Because he drew a man－powered plane.
C．Because he built a man－powered plane.
D．Because he flew a man－powered plane.
答案：B　推理判断题。从第一段最后“...the machine was first sketched by Leonardo da Vinci way back in 1485...”可知作者之所以在第一段提到达·芬奇是因为是他画了一张人力飞机图。
2. For what reason did Todd and other students keep their achievement a secret at first?
A．They wanted to get all the information and checked it.
B．They wanted to be ignored by the public.
C．They wanted to protect the birds there.
D．They wanted to work on the plane wings first.
答案：A　细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句中的“The crew kept the achievement quiet for nearly two months to get the data finalized.”可知他们之所以保守成功的秘密是因为他们想先收集并核实完所有信息。
3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The human－powered plane is named Bluebird.
B．Todd and other students spent about two years preparing for the flight.
C．The human­powered plane's wingspan is much larger than a Boeing 737's wingspan.
D．After his success，Todd still remained very modest.
答案：D　正误判断题。A项飞机名字不是Bluebird，而是Snowbird。B项他们在制造飞机上花费的是四年，而不是两年；C项与文中语境“这种人造飞机机翼与波音737的差不多”不符；根据倒数第二段中的“To be honest，I don't think it's really set in yet that I'm the one who has been successful.”可知D项是正确的。
4. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A．A Canadian student makes history by flying a humanpowered plane.
B．Thousands of people were excited when seeing the performance.
C．Todd and other students were devoted to making planes.
D．It is very difficult to fly like a bird in the sky.
答案：A　主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一名加拿大学生通过驾驶人力飞机创造历史的情况，故A项最能概括文章大意。
Ⅴ.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。
Finding your dream job can be difficult. This month, the search will become even harder as new graduates start looking for work. With many companies still struggling, job hunters have a very difficult task ahead of them.
Don't be disappointed. __1__ Consider using these three methods to find and get the job of your dreams.
The Front Door
__2__ These include checking company websites and employment services. Since lots of people use the front door, make yourself stand out. This means understanding what a company really needs and creatively showing you can meet that need. __3__ Find out who is doing the hiring, and try to give them your resume (简历) in person. Then follow up with a phone call, letter or visit.
The Back Door
A back­door job search means finding a job through people you know. The back door can help you avoid the crowd of job applicants using the front door. __4__ What if you don't have any connections at your dream company? Apply for an internship (实习期)．
The Invisible Door
If you're still not getting hired, you might be running into an invisible (无形的) door. Invisible doors are things companies want from new employees but don't list as job requirements. Many companies have special company cultures. Others are looking for people with very specific skills. __5__
