21、Uber is taking a big step towards making its vision of flying vehicles a reality, announcing on Wednesday an agreement with NASA to develop a fleet of air taxis by 2020.

While the ride-hailing (打车) service and the U.S. space agency may seem like an odd couple, the relationship is necessary in order to keep everything running smoothly when Uber ultimately takes to the skies.

“The space act that we signed with NASA is initially about cooperation around air traffic management,” Jeff Holden, Uber’s chief product officer, told NBC News. With so many aerial (空中的) vehicles flying at a low altitude, the collaboration will be necessary to help manage the skies.

Holden said he expects Uber will have its first flight demonstrations (示范) in 2020 and have the service commercially available by 2023. That’s well ahead of the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, where the service could be especially useful as an already congested city prepares to host athletes and fans from around the world.

Uber’s air travel initiative was announced last October with the promise of putting an end to long commutes, letting passengers hail an aircraft ride with the push of a button. In the case of Los Angeles, Uber has 20 strategically placed locations around the city for the Uber network.

The idea is to build a network of vertical takeoff and landing aircraft that would greatly reduce commutes, while also helping to ease vehicle pollution in major cities.

If everything goes according to plan, it will also be economical. A commute between San Francisco and San Jose, which would typically take two hours during rush hour and cost $111, would be cut down to just 15 minutes.

That route by air could initially cost $129, with the price dropping to $43 in the near term and $20 in the long term, according to a forecast from Uber.

Holden said he’s confident Uber can stick to the timeline. And when people finally get to commute by air, he hopes they think of it as an “incredibly life-changing experience”,

“This offers people the opportunity to get from point A to point B super-fast,” he said.

【1】What can you conclude from the first 3 paragraphs?

A．Uber is a space agency in the U.S.

B．NASA is offering the ride-hailing service.

D．NASA doesn’t need to manage the skies.

【2】What does the underlined word “congested” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A．Crowded with local citizens.

B．Bothered by transport pollution.

C．Popular with Olympic athletes.

D．Filled with sports fans.

【3】What can you infer about the project?

A．Los Angeles is a key city to the project.

B．It can shorten the distance of commuting.

C．It will be in use in 2028.

D．It will add to vehicle pollution in major cities.

【4】Flying from San Francisco to San Jose, people can save _________ in an Uber taxi in the short run.

A．$86

B．$68

C．$109

D．$91

22、When I turned 10, I made up my mind to take up swimming. There was a pool at the Y.M.C.A. offering exactly the opportunity. Mother continually warned against it and kept fresh in my mind the details of drowning in the river. But the Y.M.C A. pool was safe.

I had a childhood fear of water. This started when I was three years old and father took me to the beach. The huge waves knocked me down and swept over me.

The pool was quiet. I was afraid of going in all alone, so I sat on the side of the pool to wait for others. Then came a big boy. He shouted, “Hi, skinny! How’d you like to be ducked?” With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end. I landed in a sitting position, and swallowed water. But I was not frightened out of my wits（机智）—when my feet hit the bottom, I would make a big jump, coming out of the surface. It seemed a long way down. I gathered all my strength when I landed and made what I thought was a great spring upwards. Then I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water. I tried to shout but no sound came out. I went down, down, endlessly.

When I came to consciousness（意识）, I found myself lying on the bed in the hospital.

I never went back to the pool. I avoided water whenever I could. This misfortune stayed with me as the years rolled by. It deprived（剥夺）me of the joy of boating and swimming. Finally, I decided to get an instructor. Piece by piece, he built a swimmer. Several months later, the instructor was finished, but I was not. Sometimes the terror（恐惧）would return.

This went on until July. I swam across the Lake Went Worth. Only once did the terror return. When I was in the middle of the lake, I put my face under and saw nothing but bottomless water. I laughed and said, “Well, Mr. Terror, what do you think you can do to me?”

I had defeated my fear of water.

【1】What caused the author’s original（最初的）fear of water?

A．His lack of swimming skills.

B．His mother’s continual warning of drowning.

C．His misfortune to the beach with his father.

D．A terrible dream of getting drowned.

【2】By “but I was not” in paragraph 5, the author probably means ________.

A．he didn’t finish swimming training

B．he was not satisfied with the swimming training

C．he was not afraid of drowning any more

D．he had not got rid of the fear of water yet

【3】What can be inferred from the passage?

A．The author’s father was against taking up swimming.

B．The author showed little interest in boating and swimming.

C．The author was a man of great courage and determination.

D．The author defeated his fear of water before July.

【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A．Hello, Childhood Fear

B．Goodbye, Mr. Terror

C．A Swimming Adventure

D．My Passion for Swimming

23、Learning to Give Praise to Others

Words of praise, when used right, can have powerful positive effects on others. They are free, but they’re worth so much to the receiving person. 【1】 Your members didn’t follow you because of salaries but for more altruistic (利他的) reasons. Therefore, it is important that you give them the praise that is due for their efforts.

【2】 Don’t say, “You look good today.” when you could have said, “You look amazing today!” Don’t say, “Thanks for your effort.” Instead say, “I’m so thankful for your being on this project, we couldn’t have finished it without you!”

Of course, with what I have mentioned above, be sure it’s coming from your heart. 【3】 Don’t praise if you don’t have a hint of appreciation for the person. Trust me, it will show in your eyes and the other party will feel upset. Insincere praise is flattery (恭维); you attempt to gain something from saying good things about the other person.

Besides, praising in public is rather important. 【4】 When you praise a partner in public, you lift him up and his conduct for everyone in the room to see. Look for opportunities where you can publicly celebrate the hard work of certain people and make them feel they are great.

I believe that as you begin using these communication tips and praising people around you, you’ll see a change in the atmosphere of your work environment. 【5】 Eventually, you’ll find yourself with a more effective team!

A．So you need to be sincere in praise.

B．This is more so in voluntary organizations.

C．People will become happier and smile more.

D．Words aren’t always necessary in praising others.

E．It is much more effective than praising in private.

F．Remember that measured praise is not praise at all.

G．The best way to give praise is by being an example.
