We checked in and went straight to a big hall to wait for our flight to be calleD．We waited and waited, but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In. the end, there was another, announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ108 could get a free meal voucher (凭单) and that the plane hadn't left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant that it wasn't safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late night. This time we were given vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.

The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing,we were asked back to the airport. Guess what had happened while we were asleep! Our plane had arrived and taken off again. All the other passengers had been forgotten. You can imagine how we felt!

听力原文：M: Sally, are you going home for the holidays？

W: Yes. I've booked a flight for tomorrow afternoon and I can't wait.

M: That sounds great.

W: What about you？ Are you going home, too？

M: I haven't made up my mind yet. I'm thinking...

W: Haven't made up your mind？ Oh, you're not going to get a flight out of here. I guess all the seats have been reserved by now. It's a holiday season, after all. Most people are traveling.

M: Well, it's not such a big deal for me. My family is only a hundred and fifty miles from here. I usually take a train.

W: You don't sound very excited about it.

M: Well, we are not really a very close-knit family. I have two brothers and a sister. They spread out all over the place. One lives on the West Coast and one lives on the East Coast. My sister lives abroad.

W: Oh, vow! Where is she living？

M: In Paris.

W: What does she do there？

M: She teaches English in a university. It is kind of strange, but we seldom get together as a family since we earned our own livings.

W: Well, I try to get home as much as possible. We're a big family—there are six of us children—so it is always a lot of fun.

M: Six kids？

W: Yeah. And we're all really close. Most of us are married, so it makes a very crowded house over the holidays.

M: I can imagine.

W: Of course, there are too many people to cook dinner for. It is a real headache for my parents. So we usually end up eating outside. It is pretty crazy.

M: Well, at my house, my mother loves to cook. So when all of us get home—which isn't that often—she always cooks big home-made meals. We have left-overs for days.

How is the woman going home？

A．By train.

B．By plane.

C．By car.

D．By ship.

第4题

Experiments have been carried out on volunteers to see what happens when all sensations ar

e stopped. This can be done in several ways. One method is to put a man inside a completely isolated room. This room is heavily sound-proofed and absolutely dark. There is no light or sound and the person is instructed just to lie motionless in a bed. People have stayed in rooms such as this for as long as four days. The results of sensory deprivation (SD) vary with the individual.

Soon after entering the confinement cell most subjects went to sleep and slept almost without interruption for ten to twenty-four hours. These are gross estimates for there was nothing by which the subjects could determine the time which had elapsed. We know for certain that one subject slept for nineteen hours but insisted that he had had a nap of less than one hour. According to the monitoring microphone, which was capable of picking up the deep breathing of sleep, it seems more likely that most subjects slept all of the first twenty-four hours.

We felt that so much sleeping in the first day wasted the effects of confinement, so we started placing subjects in SD early in the morning. We reasoned that after a night' s sleep our confined subject would be unable to dissipate(驱散) the effects of SD by sleeping. Such was not the case. As far as we could determine they went to sleep just as quickly and slept just as long as the previous subjects. We then started entering the subjects at midmorning, midday, and midafternoon. As it turned out, it made no difference when during the day and, presumably, during the night we started the confinement; the initial sleep period was always about the same.

We had not expected this extended period of initial sleep. In fact, it had seemed reasonable to expect something of the opposite. SD was a very novel situation for our subjects, and as such, we reasoned, it should have occupied them for some time. I had a similar expectation for astronauts during space flight and was greatly surprised to learn that the Russian astronaut Yuri Gagarin had been able to sleep during his space flight around the earth.

Other effects were also noted. With no real sensations to work on, the brain makes up all sorts of false information. Many people experience vivid dreams and hallucinations (幻觉). When they are finally taken out of the room into the real changing world of light and sound, they are in a very strange state of mind, ready to believe anything and not really able to make decisions.

This passage is mainly about what will happen if sensations were lost.

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned
