(the altimeter shows the height of the plane above the ground.) at night, and in a storm, a pilot(飞行员)is in great difficulty without an altimeter. at times, her plane nearly fell into the sea. just before daylight, there was further trouble. amelia noticed flames(火焰)coming from the engine. would she be able to reach land? there was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope.amelia earhart did reach ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in england and europe. when she returned to the united states, she was honored by president hoover at a special dinner in the white house. from that time on, amelia earhart was famous.what was so important about her flight? amelia earhart was the first woman to fly the atlantic ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes.25. amelia was _. a. an americanb. an englishwoman c. a europeand. living near the atlantic26. she ran into bad weather. here “ran into” means _. a. rushed intob.

successful than men pilotsbeverybody is afraid of quicksand(流沙). in the films, suddenly people fall into quicksand, they are pulled down and down. they disappear! no one sees them again!what is quicksand? can it really pull things down? no, it can not. quicksand can not pull things into it. quicksand is really loose sand and a lot of water. the water makes the quicksand. it is different from the sand on the beach. a person can walk on the beach. a person can not walk on the quicksand. it is too loose.falling into quicksand does not hurt. it is almost like falling into water! your body will go down. but then it will come up. people can float in quicksand. but they must not fight the sand. that would make them go down. they should move slowly until they float. quicksand is found in many places. it is found near the mouths of large rivers. the mouth of a river is where the river meets the ocean or the sea. quicksand is also found on land. in some places the water stays on the land. it does not drain(排放)or dry up. if there is sand around, the sand gets very wet. then it becomes quicksand.will you go down in quicksand? yes, but not all the way. you will float. but you should float in clean water. quicksand is too dirty!28. if you fall into quicksand, _.a. you should move fast and try your best to get outb. you will be down and no one will see you againc. it is nothing serious and dont be afraid of itd. you will be pulled down and then die quickly29. a person can not walk on quicksand because _. a. it is dangerousb. it is too softc. it will hurt himd. it will pull him down30. it is difficult to find quicksand in _. a. dry countriesb. chinac. americad. wet countriescwhat do you do if youre trapped on a lonely island？surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. your best chance of doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.body signalspilots from different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. when you wave your arms up and down in a straight line，it means “yes”. when you point downwards(向下)and swing(摆动)your arm from side to side，it means “no”. if you want the pilot to know that its safe to land，push your hands out in front of you and bend your knees. if you want to say that its not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.smoke signalsthe smoke from a fire can be seen from far away，so its a good way to draw attention. if the weather is dry，it isnt hard to start a fire. remember，however，that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. never light a fire unless youre sure that it cant spread. if the ground is dark，light smoke can be seen more easily .green grass and leaves produce light smoke.ground-to-air signalsits a good idea to build some signals, too. use large pieces of wood to make the symbols. if you cant find any wood, use earth. some useful symbols are： f “i need food and water.” ii “i need medicine.” i “i am badly hurt.” x “i am unable to move from here.”pilots repliesif the pilot lowers the planes wings from side to side，this means “message received and understood”（at night，the pilot flashes the planes green lights.）if the pilot flies the plane in a clockwise circle, this means “message received but not understood”.（at night，the pilot flashes the planes red lights.）however, there is no signal which means “message not received”. why not？31. which picture means “its not safe to land”？32. what can we learn from the passage？a. swinging your arm from side to side means “yes”.b. if the ground is dark, light smoke cant be seen.c. if you need some medicine, make a symbol “ii”.d. the pilots make replies with a blue light at night.33. what is the passage mainly about？a. the explanation of building signals on an island.b. the importance of building signals on an island.c. ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.d. ways of receiving signals from a lonely island. daustralia, the last continent, was discovered by ships belonging to some european nations in the seventeenth century. these nations were less interested in changing it into a colony (殖民地) than in exploring it. as in the early history of the united states, it was the english who set up the settlements (新拓居地)in australia. the history and the geography of these two british colonies have some other things in common as well.australia and the united states are about the same in size, and their western lands are both not rich in soil. it was the eastern coast of australia and america that the english first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west. however, this westward movement took place more because the english were searching for better land than because the population was increasing. settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in america in 1849 and in australia two years later.although the development of these two countries has a lot in common, there are some great differences as well. the united states won its independence(独立)from england by revolution (革命)while australia won its independence without having to go to war. australia, unlike the united states, was firstly turned into a colony by english prisoners and its economic development was in wheat growing and sheep raising. by 1922, for example, australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people, or almost half as many sheep as there are people today in the united states. yet, besides(除了)these and other main differences, australia and the united states have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world. 34. in the early history of america and australia, both colonies developed towards the west firstly for the reason that _.a. fewer people lived there b. the english thought there might be richer land therec. gold was discovered there d. the population was increasing quickly in the east35. in the early 1920s, _.a. the population in australia was greater than that of united statesb. there were more sheep in australia than in the united statesc. australia had one sixteenth as many people as sheepd. the united states had twice as many sheep as people36. australia, unlike the united states, _. a. won its independence in a peaceful way b. did not discover gold until the late 1840sc. was the last and biggest continent to be discovered d. was not rich in gold in its western part37. the last sentence in the last paragraph “australia and the united states have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world” means “_”.a. the united states and australia do not have any main differencesb. the united states and australia have much more in common than they have with othercountriesc. the united states and australia have nothing in common with the rest of the worldd. in common with the rest of the world, the united states and australia have a lot of differences第 ii
