    Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle-named the Transition – has two seats， four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.

    Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000.And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.

    Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The govemment has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.

    Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those pilots of larger planes Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition, a requirement pilots would find redatively easy to meet.

    1.What is the first paragraph mainly about?

    A. The basic data of the Transition. B. The advantages of flying cars.

    C. The potential market for flying cars. C. The designers of the Transition.

    2.Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways?

    A. It causes traffic jams. B. It is difficult to operate.

    C. It is very expensive. D. It bums too much fuel.

    3.What is the government’s attitude to the development of the flying car?

    A. Cautious B. Favorable.

    C. Ambiguous. D. Disapproving.

    4.What is the best title for the text?

    A. Flying Car at Auto Show B. The Transition’s Fist Flight

    C.Pilots’Dream Coming True D. Flying Car Closer to Reality

    This habit was picked from my teacher back in 1988. Back then it seemed trivial（琐碎）and not likely to make any significant influence on my life.1.

    The habit that has made the greatest influence on my life is scheduling. In my mind, it is the tiny daily habit that indeed can be life-changing. Scheduling is not just about the ordering of tasks throughout the day. 2.If you are able to design the right schedule and follow it, you are able to gain massive rewards for your work.

    3.However, everything is likely to boil down to the most precious asset（财富）, namely time. If you are able to master your time and follow the schedule, you will not lose any minute doing things that do not matter or add no value. The tiny daily habit of scheduling your day is important. In the short term, it might seem boring and inefficient. 4.It can provide you with the greatest opportunity possible.

    5.

    A. Master your time

    B. Only time will tell.

    C. Forming tiny daily habit is not an easy task for us.

    D. However, a few years later I realized its true power.

    E. It is about the proper allocation and usage of your time and effort.

    F. One can endlessly argue about the things that have the biggest value in our lives.

    G. However, in the long run, the habit of scheduling your tasks and plans will pay off.

    Seven tips to good table manners

    Whether it’s dinner at a friend’s house or a business meeting over lunch, we judge people based on their table manners. But what can you do if your kids do not behave themselves at the dinner tables? The following are seven tips to set your children on the road to good table manners:

    ●Look for the good. Instead of pointing out(指出) all the things your children do wrong, point out what they do right. Please say, for example, “ I am so proud of yu. It was wonderful the way you served yourself.”

    ●Don’t turn dinner into an unpleasant “lecture time”. That will turn kids off not only manners, but dinner, and you, too.[

    ●Check your own example. Don’t show up for dinner in just your underwear (内衣) unless you want your kids to do the same.

    ●Don’t always consider your kids lazy and dirty ones. Instead, point out the behavior in a tender way. For example: “It’s a good idea to unfold your napkin, so if food falls you won’t dirty your clothes.”

    ●Teach your kids good manners in the form of a game. One night a week, try to have a formal dinner. Try dressing up, serve a special meal, and expect more formal manners. That will help improve their sense ( 意识) of manners.

    ● Make kids understand part of the tradition. Invite guests over and let kids help serve them. This helps them indirectly learn about table manners.

    ●Try dining out once in a while. Fast food restaurants aren’t counted(算在内). Try a nice restaurant and let kids order their own food, pay the bill and give the tip.

    1.The passage is mainly written for ____.

    A. kids B. parents

    C. hosts D. guests

    2.Which of the following should parents do to help their kids learn good table manners?

    A. Try dining out in fast food restaurants once in a while

    B. Point out what’s wrong with the kids’ behavior at dinner.

    C. Keep telling the kids how to behave themselves at dinner.

    D. Improve kids’ sense of manners by having a formal dinner at times.

    3.The kids should do the following EXCEPT _____.

    A. going to a formal dinner in underwear B. helping parents to serve the guests

    C. ordering their own food and paying the bill D. unfolding the napkin to keep their clothes clean

    4.The underlined part “turn kids off” in the second tip probably mean “_____”

    A. make kids pleased with B. make kids interested in

    C. make kids tired of D. make kids fond of
