His message for kids: “The only thing that separa tesyou from scientists is determination, hard work and a strong liking for what you want to achieve.” The secret, he believes, is having a dream in the first place, and that starts with learning experiences that inspire kids to build careers.The moment o f inspiration for Irving came at the age of 15 in his parents’ bookstore. One customer, a professional pilot, asked Irving if he’d thought about becoming a pilot. “I told him I didn’t think I was smart enough; but the next day he took me to the cockpit (驾驶舱) of the commercial airplane he flew, and just like that I was hooked.”To follow his dream, Irving turned down a football scholarship to the University of Florida. He washed airplanes to earn money for a flight school and increased his flying skills by practising at home on a $40 flight simulator (模拟) video game. Then another dream took hold: flying alone around the world. He faced more than 50 rejections for sponsorship before convincing some companies to donate aircraft components. He took off with no weather radar, no de-icing system, and just $30 in his pocket. “I like to do things people say I can’t do.”After 97 days, 26 stops and dozens of thunderstorms, he touched down to a cheering crowd in Miami. “It was seeing so many young people watching and l istening that pushed me into giving back with my knowledge and experience.” Irving has been doing it ever since. He set up his non-profit-making organization, Experience Aviation (航空), aiming to increase the numbers of youth in aviation and science-related careers. Kids attend programmes dealing with hands-on robotics projects and flight simulator challenges.“We want to create chances for students to accomplish something amazing,” he notes. Perhaps Irving’s most powerful educational tool is the example his own life provides. After landing his record-breaking flight at age 23, he said, “Everyone told me I was too young, that I didn’t have enough experience, strength, or knowledge. They told me it would take forever and I’d never come home. Well ... guess what?”24. According to Irving, what is the most important in achieving success?A. Meeting people who provide unexpected help.B. Getting a chance to study technical knowledge.C. Having something specific that you want to accomplish.D. Developing communication with different organizations.25. What Irving replied to the pilot in the bookstore suggested that ______.A. he felt embarrassed to refuse the offerB. he was doubtful about his own abilitiesC. he knew his efforts would be rewardedD. he realized immediately how lucky he was26. What can we learn about Irving in Paragraph 3?A. He chose to reduce his budget as low as possible.B. He was finally given enough money to keep going.C. He got the most useful flying tips from his video game.D. He took on a further challenge after he knew how to fly.27. Irving set up his non-profit-making organization because ______.A. he hoped to become a public figureB. he expected to start a business in other fieldsC. he saw there was great interest in what he was doingD. he thought he could teach more than flight schools couldCA company in San Francisco, California, has found a way to turn used plastic bottles into women’s shoes.Every day, millions of Americans drink water and other liquids from plastic bottles. More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothy’s, however, turns this plastic was te into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company’s co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women’s feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe’s outer part,called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rothy’s shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. “We’re not going to run out o f water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think that is a good sign for our future.” When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.28. How are used plastic bottles usually dealt with?A. They are buried or burned.B. They are used to make shoes.C. They are changed into soft materials.D. They arc returned to factories for reuse.29. What does the underlined word knitted in the third paragraph mean?A. Attached.B. Fixed.C. Combined.D. Repaired.30. Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy’s shoes?A. The design and color.B. The reasonable price.C. The company’s advertisement.D. The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.31. What is the purpose of the text?A. To advertise a new kind of shoes.B. To describe the process of making shoes.C. To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.D. To stress the importance of environmental protection.DA team of engineers at Harvard Universty in trying to create the first robotic fly. Desgned to do what a fly dos naturally, the tiny is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks. "The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of itscomponents is o ff the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own/’ said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies (相互依赖)on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it d connected to,” said Wood. While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform daia-gathering work at rescue sites,in farmers fields or on the battlefield. "Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications.“You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animal,but using these robots instead he said. "So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives ua on a day-to-day basis.”32. What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly?A. It's automatic.B. It's very small.C. It's controllable.D. It's quite powerful.33. We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can .A. act as a spy planeB. help do farm workC. fly at a very high speedD. answer many scientific questions34. What is Wood's ider about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph?A. It is highly questionable.B. It has wide practical applications.C. It gives scientists interest in flying machines.D. It points to a new direction in studying biology.35. What can be the best title for the passage?A.Harvand's Study in the Field of Insects.B. A Breakthrough in EngineeringScienceC.An Interesting Invention 一 Robotic FlyD. Robotic Fly 一 a Copy of Real Life Insect第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
