17、 years, but while most of them were fairly fast on land, they moved quite slowly when they were functioning as boats. The only truly amphibious vehicle that can move with equal ease on both land and water is the hovercraft (气垫船). The hovercraft is the invention of an electronics engineer named Chris

18、topher Cockerell. Cockerells hobby was sailing and he was interested in the problem of reducing the friction of water on the body of a boat, and hit on the idea of designing a boat which would travel on a cushion of air. The air cushion under a hovercraft is produced by a large fan which blows air d

19、ownwards between the craft and the water or ground, and so lifts up the craft. The air is main-rained at higher than atmospheric pressure by a flexible rubber skirt around the bottom edge of the hovercraft, preventing leakage of air from the cushion. Because the hovercraft floats on the air cushion

20、with no contact between the craft and the surface below, it can travel over flat, rough ground or water with ease. Hovercraft are usually driven by air screws like propellers (螺旋桨), which face back-wards and push the craft forwards, and can be turned to direct the hovercraft. Since there is no prope

21、ller dipping below the craft, hovercraft can travel up slopes out of the water, or land on beaches. Cockerells Air Cushion Vehicles, or ACVs, are now familiar to everyone and like all inventions, they have been improved upon. British Sea speed hovercraft have been carrying passengers and cars across

22、 the English Channel since 1968. They now have a stretched version of their Mountbatten Class hovercraft which can carry up to 60 cars and 416 passengers between Britain and France in a little over half an hour. A new, large-sized hovercraft, designed and built in France, called the Sedam N500 of Na

23、viplane, has now goneinto service. The 155 tonne N500 is 50 metres long (162 feet) and 23 metres wide (76 feet) and can carry 65 cars, plus five coaches, together with 400 passengers. When the sea conditions are ideal the N500 can reach 112 kph (70 mph). A variation of the hovercraft principle is th

24、e sidewall ACV, which is more economical than the flexible skirt models, and easier to control, but it cannot be used on land. The United States Navy have been experimenting with warships based on the sidewall principle, and some of these may well reach a speed of 160kph (100mph).The hovercraft _.Aa

25、re moved forward by propellersBtravel on a cushion of airCare lifted up by a flexible rubber skirtDmove faster on land than on water 28.As my father grew old he became odd. He became mean where once he had been open-handed, and complained about the bills run up by the students who sometimes lived wi

26、th him. He often woke up at four in the morning and started to go out of the house. And he mislaid things, but he had never in his life had to find anything or file anything. He told the same stories, but he had always repeated stories, absorbed in the telling and unaware of the listeners expression

27、 of recognition or boredom. Now he had fewer stories to tell. But the structure of his personality remained intact and his mind was as keen and fresh, as alert to anything new and interesting as it had ever been. The spring before he died I gave a seminar to a group who thought of themselves as avan

28、t-guard (先锋派), but he was the most searching questions. In the summer of 1956, after he had to move from the little house in which all the mementos of his life were in place, he was obviously failing. Although his grandchildren found a hotel in which he could live independently and still cause littl

29、e trouble by leaving his door open or the bath running, because there was someone to watch out for such things, he felt close to the end. When summer school was over, his club, which he had founded and in which he ate lunch every day, closed. He was more alone, but the nephew of an old friend had br

30、eakfast with him to be sure that he had one good meal a day, and he himself made a last effort to see those of his old friends who were still alive. He died in his sleep the night he knew I was crossing the Atlantic on my way home. It was my father whose career was limited by the number of his child

31、ren and his health, who defined for me my place in the world. Although I have acted on a wider stage than either my mother or my father, it is still the same stagethe same world, only with wider dimensions. I have been fortunate in being able to look up to my parents minds well past my own middle ye

32、ars. And I watched my father growhe rejected his earlier racial prejudices and came to respect new institutions of the federal government, such as Social Security and public ownership. Watching a parents grow is one of the most reassuring experiences anyone can have, a privilege that comes only to t

33、hose whose parents live beyond their children s early adulthood.It can be concluded from the passage that the authors father _.Ausually followed a strict set of rules about diet and exerciseBhad a penetrating mindCbelieved he had a right to run risks in his own wayDoften asked his neighbors to tell

34、him interesting stories 29.Questions 2325 are based on the following conversation.According to Dr. Jolly, what should a mother do with her child quietly playing on his ownATalking with the child.BWorking in the kitchen.CGetting on with her own work.DStaying with the child. 30.Questions 1922 are base

Holidays are times for eating and celebrating, especially with the c

37、ultural foods of our heritage. With proper planning, though, it is possible to maintain normal weight during the holidays. The idea is to enjoy the holidays and think in terms of moderation. Whether it is celebrating at the office party or sitting down at the traditional family dinner, approach eati

38、ng as a time for tasting or sampling a variety of foods. Here are some tips to carry you through the round of celebrations and your social calendar without feeling guilty. Set realistic goal. Unless you have special dietary needs there are no forbidden foods. Dont deny yourself the foods you enjoy,

39、but be sensible. Dont skip meals. Before you leave home, have a small, low-fat meal or snack. This can help you to avoid overindulging. Control portions. Use a small plate and avoid the large plate that may encourage you to load up. You should be most comfortable eating an amount of food about the s

40、ize of your fist. Once you have had enough, move away from the buffet. Doing so will make it less tempting to be eating constantly as your appetite is stimulated by the sight of the food. Eat slowly and savor. Look upon eating as a time for tasting or sampling different kinds of foods. Savor the fla

41、vours. Eating at a slow pace. Fill up beforehand with clear soup and raw fruit or vegetables. Put raw vegetables and fruit in a yogurt (乳酸) dressing rather than cream and cheese sauces. Drink a large glass of water before you eat to help you feel full. If you have a sweet tooth, try mints, hard cand

42、ies, and fruits. These dont have the fat content of creamy desserts and chocolate. Maintain physical activity. Dont let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute brisk walk after a meal can help burn off excess calories. Avoid high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy may have a g

43、enerous amount of fat. Choose lean meats. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.The purpose of the article is to help people _.Aenjoy eating and keep fitBgo on a dietCcelebrate traditional holidaysDchoose a variety of food 33.Amphibious vehicles, those that can move on both land and water,
