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 how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺) and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other—but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心) of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back—he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.
I last saw him a few months ago. He'd been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn't talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.
4. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first?
A. Paul Newman wanted it.
B. The studio powers didn't like his agent.
C. He wasn't famous enough.
D. The director recommended someone else.
5. Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?
A. They were of the same age.
B. They worked in the same theater.
C. They were both good actors.
D. They had similar characteristics.
6. What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Their belief.
B. Their care for children.
C. Their success.
D. Their support for each other.
7. What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A. To show his love of films.
B. To remember a friend.
C. To introduce a new movie.
D. To share his acting experience.

Terrafugia Inc．said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight，bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year．The vehicle-named the Transition-has two seats，four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car．The Transition，which flew at 1，400 feet for eight minutes last month，can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air．It flies using
a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air．On the ground，it gets
35 miles per gallon．
Around 100 people have already put down a﹩10，000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale，and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show．But don't expect it to show up in too many driveways．It's expected to cost﹩279，000．And it won't help if you're stuck in traffic．The car needs a runway．
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s，according to Robert Mann，an airline industry expert．But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality．The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly．The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards． Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration's decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft，which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes．Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition，a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet．
8. What is the first paragraph mainly about？
A. The basic data of the Transition．
B. The advantages of flying cars．
C. The potential market for flying cars．
D. The designers of the Transition．
9. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways？
A. It causes traffic jams．
B. It is difficult to operate．
C. It is very expensive．
D. It burns too much fuel．
10. What is the government's attitude to the development of the flying car？
A. Cautious．
B. Favorable．
C. Ambiguous．
D. Disapproving．
11. What is the best title for the text？
A. Flying Car at Auto Show
B. The Transition's Fist Flight
C. Pilots'Dream Coming True
D. Flying Car Closer to Reality．
D
When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten 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 pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It's a plant's way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbours react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew 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 its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to"overhear"the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn't a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate（亲密的） than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.
12. What does a plant do when it is under attack？
A. It makes noises．
B. It gets help from other plants．
C. It stands quietly
D. It sends out certain chemicals．
13. What does the author mean by"the tables 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．
14. Scientists find from their studies that plants can ______ ．
A. predict natural disasters
B. protect themselves against insects
C. talk to one another intentionally
D. help their neighbors when necessary
15. What can we infer from the last paragraph？
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 more imaginative．
Interruptions are one of the worst things to deal with while you're trying to get work done． (1) ，there are several ways to handle things．Let's take a look at them now．(2) ．Tell the person you're sorry and explain that you have a million things to do and then ask if the two of you can talk at a different time．
When people try to interrupt you，have set hours planned and let them know to come back during that time or that you'll find them then． (3) ．It can help to eliminate （消除） future interruptions．
When you need to talk to someone，don't do it in your own office． (4) ，it's much easier to excuse yourself to get back to your work than if you try to get someone out of your space even after explaining how busy you are．
If you have a door to your office，make good use of it． (5) ．If someone knocks and it's not an important matter，excuse yourself and let the person know you're busy so they can get the hint（暗示） that when the door is closed，you're not to be disturbed．
A．If you're busy，don't feel bad about saying no
B．When you want to avoid interruptions at work
C．Set boundaries for yourself as far as your time goes
D．If you're in the other person's office or in a public area
E．It's important that you let them know when you'll be available

【解析】1. 句意：它的运行距离不到7公里，人们在上下班路上可以避开上面道路上可怕的人群。

crowd可数名词，意为“人群”，根据句意可知，此处应用复数形式crowds，故填crowds。

2. travel to and from表示“往返于……”，固定短语，故填from。

3. 句意：这包括挖掘道路，铺设轨道……。

分析句子可知，digging, building与lay是include 并列的宾语，因此应保持形式一致，用动名词形式。

故填laying。

4. 这里的top是特指上文所提到的第一条地下客运铁路的“顶部”，故填the。

5. 句意：蒸汽机被用来拉动车厢……。

句子陈述过去发生的事情，应为一般过去时态，且Steam engines与use之间是被动关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态；主语Steam engines是复数，be 动词用were。

故填were used。

6. 句意：所有的烟雾和噪音对于顾客来说一定是相当不愉快的。

此处用副词fairly修饰形容词unpleasant，故填fairly。

7. 句意：然而，这条铁路很快就被证明是一个巨大的成功，并且在六个月之内，每天有超过2.5万人使用它。

联系上文可知，此处应用it来指代上文的the railway。

故填it。

句子陈述过去发生的事，要用一般过去时态。

故填managed。

空处用形容词作表语，the most successful表示“最成功的”，故填successful。

42.【答案】Mr. and Mrs. Zhang (1)all work in our school. They live far from the school, and it takes them about (2)a hour and a half to go to work every day. In their spare time, they are (3)interesting in planting vegetables in their garden, (4)that is on the rooftop of their house. They often get up (5)earlier and water the vegetables together. They have also bought (6)for some gardening tools. (7)Beside, they often get some useful (8)informations from the Internet.

(1)将all改为both
(2)将a改为an/one
(3)将interesting改为interested
(4)将that改为which
(5)将earlier改为early
(6)将for去掉
(7)将Beside改为Besides
(8)将informations改为information
(9)将came改为comes
(10)在pick前加上to
【解析】1.Mr. and Mrs. Zhang是“两个人”，用both，all是代指三者或三者以上的代词，而代指“两者都”的是both。

故将all改为both。

2.hour是可数名词，因其读音以元音音素开头，所以用不定冠词an，或用one表示“一”。

故将a改为an/one。

3.be interested in意为“对……感兴趣”，是固定搭配。

故将interesting改为interested。

4.分析句子结构可知，这是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词garden在从句中作主语，用关系代词which，that不可用于非限制性定语从句中。

故将that改为which。

5.语境中没有进行比较的对象就不需要用比较级，应使用原级。

故将earlier改为early。

6.buy是及物动词，可直接接名词作宾语，不需要介词for。

故将for去掉。

7.beside意为“在……旁边，在……附近”，是介词，besides意为“此外，而且”，是副词，此处应是：此外。

故将Beside改为Besides。

rmation是不可数名词，没有复数形式。

故将informations改为information。

9.根据句意：每当夏季到来的时候，讲述的是一般事实，用一般现在时态，主语为summer是单数形式，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。

故将came改为comes。

10.invite sb. to do sth. 意为“邀请某人做某事”，动词不定式作宾语补足语。

故在pick
前加to。
