my eye pretty quickly, ” Bloom said. “I thought it was so cute, and I knew that
some of my underclassmen friends hadn’t seen it yet because they didn’t have their

Her tweet has since been retweeted more than 2, 500 times. This very good student

adapted to the school environment so he would be prepared for this year. “He has
become a huge part of my school, coming to my classes with me, and a lot of
people know about him, ” Schalk said. So he spoke to the people in charge of the
yearbook to see if Alpha could be included in the yearbook, and they were 100
percent supportive. “All the teachers and students were 100 percent supportive, ”
Schalk said.

DUBAI (Reuters)—Dubai staged a test flight on
Monday for what it said would soon be the world’s
first flying taxi service under an ambitious plan by the
United Arab Emirates city to lead the Arab world in
innovation(革新).
The flying taxi developed by German firm
Volocopter resembles a small, two-seater helicopter
cabin with 18 propellers(螺旋桨) at its top.
It was unmanned for its first test run in a ceremony arranged for Dubai Crown
Prince Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed.
第1页共4页

Meant to fly without remote control guidance and with a maximum flight duration
(持续时间) of 30 minutes, it comes with plenty of safety measures in case of trouble:
back-up batteries, rotors(旋翼) and, for a worst situation, a couple of parachutes.
Volocopter is in a race with more than a dozen well-funded European and U. S.
firms, each aiming to create a new form of urban transport that is a cross between a
driver-less electric car and a short-haul, vertical(垂直的) takeoff-and-landing
aircraft.
These include aerospace giant Airbus, which aims to put a flying taxi in the air by
2020; Kitty Hawk, a company backed by Google co-founder Larry Page; and Uber,
which is working with partners on its own flying taxi strategy.
“You can use your smartphone, have an app, and order a Volocopter to the next
voloport near you. The volocopter would come and autonomously pick you up and
take you to your destination, ” CEO Florian Reuter said.
“It already is capable of flying based on GPS tracks today, and we will use full
sense capability, also dealing with unknown obstacles on the way, ” he added,
saying developers aimed to start the taxis within five years.
28. What can we learn about the flying taxi?
A. Its service has started. B. It is the plan of
Germany.
C. It is similar to a small helicopter. D. It was manned at its
first test.
29. What’s the character of the flying taxi?
A. It can last more than half an hour. B. It can be controlled in
the distance.
C. It needn’t any parachute. D. Some safe measures are
taken.
30. What’s the aim of Airbus?
A. To create a helicopter. B. To create a flying taxi.
C. To make a driver-less electric car. D. To make vertical
takeoff-and-landing aircraft.
31. How do you order the flying taxi?
A. By telephone.
B. By the Internet.
C. By the taxi station.
D. By app.

New drivers who are caught using a phone at the wheel will lose their licence
under new law that comes into force today.
From Wednesday anyone found calling, texting or using an app while driving
will face a 200 pounds on-the- spot fine and six points on their licence. It means that
new drivers—who can lose a maximum of six points before being banned for the first
two years after passing their test—will face an immediate ban for sending a single
text message. Previously they were able to avoid getting points on their licence by
taking part in retraining courses. More experienced motorists can lose their licence if
they receive 12 points in a three-year period.
It follows a tragic(灾难的) incident in which Polish lorry driver Tomasz Kroker
killed four members of the same family after failing to stop while scrolling (滚动)
through music on his phone. Twenty-two people were killed and 99 seriously injured
in accidents on Britain’s roads in 2019 where a motorist using a mobile was a main
cause of accidents.
Research by the RAC has found that one in four motorists admit checking texts,
emails and social media while driving. Chris Grayling, the Transport Secretary,
said increasing punishment would act as a “strong deterrent(震慑物)”. He added,
“Everyone has a part to play in encouraging their family and friends not to use their
phones while driving. It is as inexcusable(不可原谅的) as drink-driving. ”
32. People will lose six points on their licence while driving except________.
A. calling B. texting
C. using an app D. carrying phones
33. Who will lose his licence according to the passage?
A. New drivers lose 5 points for the first two years.
B. New drivers lose 6 points during three years.
C. Experienced drivers lose 12 points in three years.
D. Experienced drivers lose 6 points in three years.
34. What led to the appearance of the new law?
A. The research by the RAC.
B. A serious accident.
C. The survey of the website.
D. The news on TV.
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. More severe punishment is effective.
B. Most of drivers use phones while driving.
C. A driver’s family and friends make no difference.
D. Using phones while driving is more harmful than drink-driving.

In years past, you couldn’t talk to me before 10: 00 in the morning, much less
expect me to get anything useful done. And the weekends? Forget it. If the time had
“a. m. ” attached to the end of it, you’d better believe I was face-down in a pillow.
36 I’m mentally forming my to-do list before I even open my eyes. I find that my
best writing is done within the first few hours after I wake up. So what’s my secret?

Night time preparation is half the battle. A few minutes at night to set up the coffee
pot, lay out an outfit, and get your lunch together for the following day can be a
godsend come sunrise.
·Set two alarms.
The first one is gentle, within reach and set for five minutes before you really
need it. This comforting sound will slowly wake you up. 38
·Do something that is truly, genuinely you.
39 Enjoy your coffee slowly. Take a walk or do ten minutes of yoga. If you
walk out of the door with peace in your heart, you’ll carry it with you throughout
the day.
If you generally struggle in the evening hours, don’t push yourself too hard to go
against nature. Lean into your afternoon energy but use these tips to help you
embrace those tough mornings with a bit more grace(优雅). 40
A. Get things ready in advance.
B. Setting some exciting music for your alarm may also help.

up.

Yesterday, I got hurt in a accident in the supermarket besides our school. I was just
going around the corner while a strong man crashed into me with his shopping cart. It
was impossible see each other before the accident because the corner was very dark
and the lights didn’t even work. What’s more, the floor was very wet because it was
rainy yesterday. So I fall, got knocked out and was serious hurt. Although the
supermarket paid for the accident, but I still want to give some advices to the
supermarket. Always get the lights checking at least once a week and make sure the
floor is dry all the time, that would help make the supermarket a safer place.
