It may be the happiest place on Earth, but the Magic Kingdom has become a little more restrictive(限制的) for the children hoping to enjoy Disney’s US parks on their own. Beginning on March 23 of this year, anyone under the age of 14 must go there with someone over 14. If a worker who works at the front gates sees a child who looks younger than 14 without a person who looks older than that, he will have a talk with the tourist. If he is sure the tourist is under 14, his parents will be contacted to pick them up.
Before this, Disney did not have any age restrictions(限制) for tourists. The new rule was set up after Disney conducted a survey of its tourists and contacted various child welfare association(福利机构). They both thought it was necessary to have the age requirement. The American Red Cross suggested that 14 is the minimum(最小的) age for babysitters(保姆).
News of the age restriction comes nearly a week. A child on vacation with his father and mother fell into a pool and died at Disneyland Pop Century Resort(度假村). Anthory Johnson was swimming in the hotel pool with a group of children including his little brother and a cousin at about 9:30 pm when the accident happened. Witnesses said the teen was playing in the water on Sunday evening without family members. A cousin found him under water around 9:10 pm and told others in the group who pulled him out of water. Orange Country Sheriff’s officials said after Anthony was taken to nearby hospital, he died several days later.
小题1:How does the worker know the child is under 14?
A.By contacting with his parents.
B.By seeing if the child comes on his own.
C.By seeing if the child comes with his parents.
D.By looking at the child’s appearance and talking with him.
小题2:What ISN’T the reason for setting up the new rule?
A.14 is the minimum age for babysitters.
B.Children like to play in Disney’s US parks with their parents.
C.Tourists think it’s necessary to have the age requirement.
D.A child on vacation with his parents died in a pool at Disney’s Pop Century Resort.
小题3:What’s the main idea of this passage?
A.The happiest place for children.
B.A new rule of age requirement about children who go to Disneyland.
C.A survey of age requirement about children who go to Disneyland.
D.A child who fell into a pool and died at Disneyland.

答案

小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:B
解析

试题分析:这篇文章主要讲了低于14岁的孩子没有大于14岁的人陪同就不能去迪斯尼乐园。关于年龄限制的规定制定出来已经将近一个星期。
小题1:细节理解题。根据 If a worker who works at the front gates sees a child who looks younger than 14 without a person who looks older than that, he will have a talk with the tourist.句意:如果一个前门工作的工作人员看到一个孩子小于14岁,且没有一个大于14岁的人陪同,他会和这个游客交谈。由此可知,工作人员是通过看孩子的外貌和交谈来判定孩子是否低于14岁。故选D。
小题2:推理判断题。孩子们喜欢和他们的父母亲在迪斯尼乐园玩。这个不是制定新规定的原因。可知应选B。
小题3:主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了低于14岁的孩子没有大于14岁的人陪同就不能去迪斯尼乐园。故选B。

If cars had wings, they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2011.The company Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to make such a car-plane called “Transition”, to customers(顾客) by the end of 2012. “It’s the next ‘wow’ vehicle,”said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh. “Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris don’t fly.”
The car-plane has wings that unfold for flying—a process the company says takes one minute-and fold back up for driving. A runway is still needed to take off and land.
The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.
The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as an easier and cheaper way to fly.They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then you’re good to go.When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don’t have to store it at an airport—you leave it in the car park at home.
The car-plane is designed to fly under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum take-off weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers.
The Transition’s price tag: $194,000, But there may be something else you need to pay, like a radio, transponder or GPS and so on.
So far, the company has more than 70 orders. “We’re working very closely with them, but there are still some remaining steps,” Brown said.
小题1:We can learn from the first paragraph that _________.
A.car-planes will be popular in 2012
B.people might drive a car-plane in 2012
C.both Transition and Ferrari can take off and land
D.Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts
小题2:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A.The car-plane needs a runway to take off and land.
B.A car-plane with radio and GPS will cost $194,000
C.The car-plane may fly at 8,000 feet
D.People can park the car-plane in the car park at their home.
小题3:Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “unfold” on this passage?
A.startB.spreadC.coverD.travel
小题4:What’s the best title for the passage?
A.Cars With Wings May come true soon
B.A Ferrari or a Car Plane
C.A Easier and Cheaper Way to Fly
D.Cars With Wings Can Fly as Fast as Planes
