A
If you ask someone why he or she wears clothes, the answer will probably be
warm and to cover my body.
want to look attractive and appear successful to others!
If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies, most clothing would
be
simple
and
cheap.
In
most
Western
countries,
however,
clothing
is
sometimes
very
expensive.
The
main
reason
for
this
is
not
the
cost
of
the
fabric
(
布料
)
or
the
cost
of
making the clothes. The clothes are expensive because of fashion. Successful businessmen,
for
example,
often
wear
very
expensive
suits,
shirts
and
ties.
Sometimes
they
pay
thousands of dollars for a suit and hundreds of dollars for a tie. It's still just a suit and tie
but
they
pay
these

prices

because

of
the
famous

name

of
the
designer.
A
suit
costing much less would be just as warm and would cover the wearer's body just
Fashion
is
constantly

(
不断地
)
changing,
which
means
that
people
who
want
to
be
fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months, even if last month's clothes have
only
been
worn
once
or
twice.
Some
people
have
wardrobes

(
衣柜
)
full
of
clothes
that
have hardly been worn but are no longer in fashion. Being fashionable, therefore, can be a
very expensive pastime!

Questions
56-58:
Choose
the
best
answer
from
A,
B,
C
and
D
according
to
the
passage.
56. Why do people wear clothes?







A. Only to cover themselves.





B. Just to make themselves attractive.







C. Just because of fashion.







D. For a variety of reasons.
57. Successful businessmen buy very expensive suits because of the________.






A. cost of the fabric













B. famous name of the designer






C. cost of making them










D. good packages
58. According to the passage, fashionable people have to________.






A. wear their clothes only once




B. buy new clothes regularly






C. wear last month's clothes






D. buy new Clothes once or twice

Questions 59-60: Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F)
according to the passage.
59. Successful businessmen pay thousands of dollars for a tie.
60. Some clothes are no longer in fashion though they have hardly been worn.

B
There're
two
main
things
that
make
aircraft
engineering
difficult:
the
need
to
make
every part as reliable

(
可靠的
) as possible and the need to build everything as light as
possible.

（
61
）
_____________________
Given
a
certain
power
of
engine
and
a
certain
fuel
consumption

(
消耗

),
there
is
a
practical
limit
to
the
total
weight
of
the
aircraft
that
can
be
made
to
fly.
(62)













So the structure of the aircraft has to be as small and light as safety and
efficiency
(
效能
)
will allow. The designer must calculate (
计算
) the normal
load
(
负荷

that each part will
bear. This specialist is called the
may be put on the part.
The
stress
man's
calculations
go
to
the
designer
of
the
part,
and
he
must
make
it
as
strong
as
the
stress
man
says
is
necessary.
(63)




















Each
separate
part is tested, then a whole
assembly
(
装配
) --for example, a complete wing, and finally
the whole aeroplane. When a new type of aeroplane is being made. normally only one of
the first three made will be flown. Two will be destroyed on the ground in structural tests.
(64)______________
(65)

















The
first
is
to
find
the
resistance

(
阻力
)
to
loading
of
the
wings, tail, etc. until they reach their largest amount of load and
collapse
(
崩溃
). The other
test
is
for
fatigue

(
疲乏

)
strength.
When
a
plane
has
passed
all
the
tests
it
can
get
a
government
certificate
(
证书
) of airworthiness, without which it is illegal to fly, except for
test flying.
Questions 61-65: Choose from the sentences A-G to complete the passage. There are
two extra sentences which you do not need to use.
A, Two kinds of ground strength tests are carried out.
B. One or two samples are always tested to prove that they are as strong as the designer
intended.
C. Each may be well under what the structure could stand as a single load, but many
repetitions can result in collapse.
D. The third one will be tested in the air.
E.
Making
the
working
parts
reliable
is
as
difficult
as
making
the
structure
strong
enough:
F. The fact that an aeroplane is up in the air and cannot stop if anything goes wrong,
makes it




perhaps a matter of life or death that its performance is completely dependable.
G
.
Out
of
that
weight
as
much
as
possible
is
wanted
for
fuel,
radio
navigational
instruments
(
导航设备
),
passenger
seats,
or
freight

(
货物
)
room,
and,
of
course,
the
passengers or freight themselves.
C
Auctions
(
拍卖
)
are
public
sales
of
goods,
conducted
by
an
officially
approved
auctioneer. He asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or
the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names
the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called
the bidding ends when the auctioneer bangs a small hammer on a table at which he stands.
