Imagine moving to a new country. There you know almost no one and you don't speak the language. Eighty years ago, my grandmother, Jean Rizzi, did just that.
Like so many immigrants (移民) from Europe, her first stop in America was Ellis Island, in New York. The immigration station on Ellis Island opened 125 years ago. From 1892 to 1954, over 12 million foreigners entered America through Ellis Island.
My grandmother's journey started near Naples, Italy. Her father got a job in New York years earlier. After he saved enough money, he sent for his family to join him. In November 1936, his wife and three kids got on a ship to New York. At just 8 years old, my grandmother didn't know what to expect. “I was nervous,” she says. “But I was also excited about finally getting to see my new home in the big city.”
For nearly two weeks, they were at sea and couldn't see any land. They all stayed in one small room on the boat. When the boat arrived at Ellis Island, my grandmother thought the journey was over. But she and her family still had to be examined (检查) by doctors. Finally, they were off to their new home inQueens, New York. My grandmother still lives there.
Ellis Island is now a popular tourist attraction (旅游景点) in New York. More than 3 million people visit it each year. To immigrants like my grandmother, the island is a symbol of freedom (自由) and the American dream.
( ) 36. What happened in 1954?
A. The writer's grandmother was born.
B. Millions of foreigners went to America.
C. The writer's grandfather left for New York.
D. The immigration station on Ellis Island closed.
( ) 37. How did the writer's grandmother and her family get to America?
A. By car.
B. By train.
C. By ship.
D. By plane.
( ) 38. As soon as the writer's grandmother and her family arrived at Ellis Island, ________.
A. some doctors examined them
B. the writer's grandmother felt sick
C. they found their money was missing
D. one of their friends came to meet them
( ) 39. Many people visit Ellis Island probably because ________.
A. they want to buy houses there
B. they are interested in its history
C. it is the most beautiful island in New York
D. it is home to many famous American people
( ) 40. What can we learn about the writer's grandmother?

Ⅶ. 阅读表达 (共10分，每小题2分)
阅读下面短文，根据其内容完成后面各项任务。

When a plane crashes (坠毁), the first thing people do is ask, “What went wrong? How can we keep it from happening again?” At this point, someone will probably mention the “black box”.
Actually, a plane's black box is usually orange. 因为它是亮桔色，所以对于人们来说找到这个匣子比较容易。

Almost all the planes carry black boxes, and because of this, air safety has improved.
What is a black box? A black box is a data (数据) recorder. It records (记录) up to 300 different kinds of information about a flight (飞行). For example, it records a plane's speed. Also, it records things pilots say to each other and over the radio. This helps people know what happened before a crash.
In what part of a plane is a black box put? Many people are surprised to learn that a black box is not in the front of a plane. Instead, it is in a plane's tail.
How do the recording devices (设备) inside a black box survive (幸免于) a crash? A black box is made of very strong materials. This protects the devices in two ways. It gives protection from the crash itself. And it protects against very high temperatures and fire.
Why is a black box so important? A black box records important information. Without it, many questions about an accident could never be answered. The information helps people understand and explain what went wrong.
As a result, plane makers can make changes so the problem will not happen again.
