It was the first flight of a powered aircraft. Only five people witnessed the event but, luckily, one of them took a photograph.People had flown for very short periods before, using wings of different kinds. In 1678 a Frenchman built a glider and flew it over a small building. About 200 years before that, Leonardo da Vinci designed a flying machine that was never built.The flight at Kitty Hawk was the first time an engine had been used to lift an aircraft up and power it through the air. The men who built this first powered aircraft were the Wright brothers—Orville and Wilbur. It was a biplane (which means it had double wings) with a small four-cylinder engine. The Wright brothers named it the Flyer.Orville was the pilot. He flew the plane for 12 seconds at about 30 miles an hour. This was the first flight of a heavier-than-air machine that took off into the air carrying a person, and moved forward to land at a point as high as that from which it had taken off. Where it landed was important because a plane can glide to a place lower than its starting point.From this date onwards things happened quickly, and in 1919 Alcock and Brown flew an airplane across the Atlantic Ocean, a journey of 1,889 miles.1.What did five people witness at Kitty Hawk in 1903?A.Someone taking the first photograph in history.B.Someone flying a glider over a small building.C.The first flight of a powered aircraft.D.The first flight across the Atlantic Ocean.2.What did a Frenchman do in 1678?A.He flew a glider over a small building.B.He designed a flying machine.C.He jumped over a small building.D.He designed a small building.3.What is a biplane?A.It's a plane with a four-cylinder engine.B.It's a plane called the Flyer.C.It's a plane with two engines.D.It's a plane with double wings.4.Who built the Flyer?A.A Frenchman.B.Leonardo da Vinci.C.Alcock and Brown.D.Orville and Wilbur Wright.5.Why is it important that the plane landed at a place higher than where it took off?A.Because it meant that the plane didn't crash.B.Because it meant that the plane didn't just glide.C.Because it meant that everyone could see the plane.D.Because it meant that the pilot had landed safely.6.How soon after the flight at Kitty Hawk did Alcock and Brown fly across the Atlantic?A.16 years.B.12 years.C.30 years.D.17 years.CChoose the words or expressions and complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文):Listening to music can be fun, but it can also cause many problems. When I was a young girl, I used to listen to pop music while doing homework. The only problem was that I listened to it very 1 . At that time, I lived with my parents. They hated hearing my loud music, particularly at night. It was unpleasant to them. I had to use headphones in order not to 2 when I wanted to enjoy some music. I always listened to the music two or three levels too high. This brought more damage to my eardrums than listening to music in an open space.After damaging my eardrums, I felt like I was always asking people to repeat themselves. And 3 I had to do that a lot. I could no longer clearly hear what they were saying. This became a big headache to me. At university I had to sit in the front of the classroom so I could hear the lecture. This meant that 4 I was not on time for class and had to sit in the back, I couldn't hear the teacher at all. The result was that I didn't get good grades.After completing university, I began doing sales job for a living. Because I couldn't hear clearly, my customers often 5 that I wasn't paying attention when they were talking. That wasn't good for business. Finally I decided to get a hearing aid. Normally hearing aids are for 6 people, but for me loud music caused me to have one about thirty years too soon.1.A.quietlyB.loudlyC.seriouslyD.clearly2.A.make noisesB.go to sleepC.give upD.lose hope3.A.for exampleB.after allC.in that wayD.in fact4.A.ifB.unlessC.untilD.as5.A.promisedB.stoppedC.complainedD.proved6.A.sickB.oldC.youngD.middle-agedDRead the passage and fill in the blanks with suitable words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺。

Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. Newborn babies can take things with either of their hands, but after about two years they like to use their right hands. Scientists don’t know why this happens. They have studied it. They think our ancestors(祖先)are right-handed. This may not be true. Monkeys are our closest relation in the animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys like to use one of their hands more than the other, but it can be either hand. Next time you visit the zoo, watch the monkeys carefully.
