         Their reunion was unlike any other.  Graduating from the Macon, Georgia,  class of 1959 gathered
    together in 2009, even though many of them never had an opportunity to meet during their high school
    days.
         Schools in the 1950's, like most other public locations, were segregated (隔离)in Georgia. Kids were
    forced to attend different schools depending on the color of their skin, and those with white skin were
    further separated by gender. Fifty years later these people who were not allowed to associate with each
    other were finally able to connect.
         It all began with the personal journey of a man named Tom Johnson. He grew up in Macon and
    enjoyed a very successful career which included serving as the publisher of the Los Angeles Times and
    president of CNN. Tom's life changed drastically over the years, but he still felt the desire to reconnect
    with his roots.
         In 2005 Johnson returned to Macon with his son, Wyatt. As the pair drove around town,  the father
    recounted high school stories to his son. He talked about how students attended one of three schools:
    BallardHudson, Lanier or Miller. Wyatt looked over at his father and said: "Dad  think about how
    many friends you missed getting to know."
         Johnson thought about the people he never got the chance to meet. He decided to do something
    about it.
         The first step was to find people who graduated from all three schools. Johnson wrote to each person
    and proposed they all get together for a luncheon. He explained that even though they were kept apart
    during their youth, they didn't have to be separated any more. His classmates received the message with
    open hearts. A reunion date was set for October.
          More than 200 former Macon students traveled hundreds of miles to reunite with people who went
    to high school with them. It was an unprecedented event, former students coming together to make up
    for the time they had lost during the days of segregation.
    1. White students in Georgia in the 1950's could ________ .     
    A. attend school of a single sex
    B. attend school of mixed sexes
    C. attend school with students of other skin colors
    D. attend any school they like
    2. When the classmates received the message from Tom, they ________.
    A. were all eager for the reunion
    B. were doubtful about his real purpose
    C. refused to listen to him
    D. all began to miss him
    3. We can learn from the passage that Tom Johnson ________.
    A. began to miss his old school friends after he retired
    B. wanted to reconnect with his roots after the dramatic changes in his life
    C. wanted to reconnect with his roots in spite of his successful career
    D. began to miss his old school friends after hearing his son's words
    4. The passage mainly tells us ________.
    A. the success story of Tom Johnson
    B. the segregation in Georgia in the 1950's
    C. an unusual reunion of old graduates
    D. the old school system in Georgia

    The way we get about has a deep influence on the way we live－affecting where we set up home, work and holiday. So what changes might come in the way we get around? What big ideas are out there, and do they have any chance of coming true?

    Personal Air Travel

    The idea: flying cars

    Developments in light small plane technology will make it possible for everyone to own what are, in fact, flying cars. They will have closed cabins, heating, stereos and room for two people.

    You will take off from a field near your home and fly to towns and cities. After landing, you will take off the fixed wing and continue your journey by road just as if you were traveling by car.

    Fuel efficient engines and the advantage of being able to travel in the sky will keep costs and the environmental influence down.

    Flying for Fun

    The idea: Jet Packs

    The idea was a hit when a stuntman (特技演员) flew around on one during the opening ceremony of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, which was very successful.

    You’ll be able to use the equipment－roughly the size of two scuba tanks fastened to your back－for short journeys.

    They will be handy for cleaning hard-to-reach windows, arriving in style at a party and shopping.

    Taxis

    The idea: driverless taxis

    These computer-controlled taxis will take you wherever you want along a fixed route, whenever you want to go.

    For the price of one person’s bus fare, several people can ride at speeds of up to 25 mph, and there will be fences to guard against accidents.

    There will be little, if any, wait for the use of the taxis, which will leave from stations and will be used by prepaid cards.

    The taxis, which will travel on a 1.5 m-wide track, will use 75% less energy per passenger than a car and 50% less than a bus.

    1.The passage is mainly about ________.

    A. future travel                       B. big ideas and dreams

    C. advanced technology               D. the influence of travel

    2.We learn from the passage that flying cars ________.

    A. will operate only in the sky  

    B. will be more expensive than common cars

    C. will have few bad effects on the environment

    D. won’t be equipped with things similar to what cars have

    3. With Jet Packs, we can do all the following EXCEPT ________.

    A. attend a party                           B. clean high windows

    C. go shopping                      D. have a long journey

    4.As for driverless taxis, we can infer that ________.

    A. we can go wherever we want in them

    B. they will be both convenient and safe

    C. it costs more to take them than to take ordinary cars

    D. they will be operated by computers as well as by people
