The world's largest aircraft made its public debut last week at Europe's biggest factory，a purpose built assembly line in Toulouse, southern France.The Airbus A380 will have 50 percent more floor space than American rival Boeing's 747 Jumbo，with room for duty-free shops，restaurants and even a sauna.This new arrival is expected to change the face of air travel.
The A380 will enter service early next year with Singapore Airlines.
Airbus claims the A380 will burn less fuel，make less noise，create less pollution and cost 17 percent less per seat than the 747.It will also reduce traffic problems in the skies.
The aircraft，which cost between￡140 million(US $250m)and￡157 million(US $280m)each compared with￡84 million(US $150m)for Boeing's new Dreamliner jet，is being built at 16 factories in Germany，France，Spain and the UK.
But activists have warned of more noise and pollution from the Superjumbo，while Boeing
believes huge aircraft will not be in great demand over the next decade.
As a result，it is putting faith in the much smaller 747 Dream liner .But Airbus is pinning its hopes on the“big is beautiful”theory，gambling on size being the key factor in the US-European battle for the skies.
Airbus said it was in talks with half a dozen global airlines about buying the A380.China Eastern Airlines，already an Airbus customer，is said to be targeted，while executives made it plain that they wanted to fight for the Japanese market，which had traditionally been controlled by Boeing.
Over the next 20 years，Airbus hopes to sell 750 of the new planes into a market worth￡185 billion(US $330bil)．The company already has 129 firm orders for the A380，with 52 options. 1．According to Airbus，which of the following is not the advantage of A380 compared to Boeing 747?
A．Making less noise，causing less traffic problems.
B．Using less fuel，costing less money.
C．Creating less pollution，having less weight.
D．Having more floor space，creating less pollution.
2．From the passage，we can NOT infer that________．
A．Airbus is aiming at the Japanese market
B．Boeing is a rival of Airbus
C．A380 hasn't been used yet
D．Boeing is better than Airbus
3．In the Airbus A380，passengers cannot find________．
A．duty-free shops B．restaurants
C．banks D．a sauna
4．According to the news，the prospect of A380 may be________．
A．not so good B．cheerful
C．undesirable D．gloomy

What makes a gift special？Is it the price you see on the gift receipt？Or is it the look on the
recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value？What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was debating what to give my father .My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything .I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked .The message was from my father .My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake .The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky，inspired me .My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid .That may even be the reason why I love writing .I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back .I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift .I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it .As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind .The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe；my dad recited it as much as he did the other .I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it .The poem was focused around dreaming，and after searching I found the perfect picture .The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream .As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.
Christmas soon arrived .The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift. 1．The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was________．
A．doing shopping B．having a debate

【语篇解读】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述作者在阅读母亲的短信时无意间注意到一直储存在自己手机中的来自父亲的一条信息。

信息中的花朵和小诗给了作者灵感，让作者为父亲准备了一份特别的圣诞礼物。

1．C[细节理解题。

根据第二段第三句话“I pulled out...when I came across a message...”可知，作者在阅读来自母亲的一条短信时，看到了一直储存在自己手机里的来自父亲的一条信息，正是这条信息让作者对圣诞礼物的准备有了新的打算。

A项中的doing shopping只是作者的妈妈和作者的打算，并未发生；B项中的having a debate出现在作者想到这份特殊礼物之前；D项中怀俄明州在文中出现过，但它只是作者信息中图片的拍摄地点，拍照与准备礼物无关。

]
2．A[细节理解题。

根据第二段中“The flower...inspired me.”可知，是蒲公英花的照片启发
了“我”给父亲准备什么样的礼物。

]
3．D[推理判断题。

此处it指此句的typed that中的that，而由as well可知，此处的that 指上句中recited it中的it，it指前句中的the poem，再由The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe...推知，文中the words of it中的it应指Edgar Allan Poe写的诗歌。

]
4．D[推理判断题。

通过文中的第三段可知，作者通过看图片信息获得灵感后，在电脑上输入了父亲所喜爱的诗歌，并为这些诗歌配了寓意深刻的背景图片。

故D项“把文字与图片相搭配”符合题意。

]
5．B[主旨大意题。

本题考查考生理解全文、提炼信息、概括总结的能力。

对比四个选项，A项意为“如何为礼物设计样式”，与文章中心不符；B项意为“建议发自内心地制作礼物”，体现了作者的写作目的；C项意为“解释如何使用电脑来创造礼物”，偏离了文章的主题；
D项意为“描述作者已收到的礼物”，而文章并未提及作者收到礼物，此项本身即为错误选项。

]
(长难句分析)
The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.
分析本句是一个复合句。

句子的主句是①I_knew_I_had_given_the_perfect _gift．②the_minute引导时间状语从句，意为“一……就……”，句中as同样引导时间状语从句，意为“当……的时候”。

③placed_in_a_cheap_frame为过去分词短语作定语，
④I_had_given_the_perfect_gift是宾语从句。

译文⑤当父亲小心地打开放在一个便宜框架里的那些缠绕的黑色信件时，我看他脸上的表情，就知道我送给了他一件完美的礼物。
