21、   SkyDrive Inc. conducted a successful test drive of its new flying car on August 25 at the Toyota Test Field, one of the largest in Japan and home to the car company’s development base. The car, named SD-03, manned with a pilot and powered by electricity, took off and circled the field for about four minutes. It was the first public demonstration(演示) of a flying car in Japanese history.

“We are extremely excited to have achieved the manned flight of a flying car in the two years since we founded SkyDrive...with the goal of commercializing such aircraft,” CEO Tomohiro Fukuzawa said. “We want to realize a society where flying cars are an accessible and convenient means of transport in the sky and people are able to experience a safe, secure, and comfortable new way of life.

The SD-03 is the world's smallest vertical take-off and landing vehicle and takes up the space of about two parked cars, according to the company. It has eight motors to ensure “safety in emergency situation”.“In designing an unexplored, new type of transportation known as the flying car in our country, we chose the key word ‘progressive’ for inspiration,” Design director Takumi Yamamot said.“We wanted this vehicle to be futuristic, appealing and desirable for all future customers, while fully including the high technology of SkyDrive.”

 The company hopes to make the flying car part of normal life and not just a product. More test flights will occur in the future under different conditions to make sure the safety and technology of the vehicle meet industry standards. The success of this flight means that it is likely that the car will be tested outside of Toyota Test field by the end of the year. The company will continue to develop technologies to safely and securely launch the flying car in 2023. However, no price has been announced so far.

22、When you re grocery shopping, have you ever noticed that most grocery stores often don’t have windows and if they do they’re only at the front of the store? You might not pay much attention to the architectural features of the building you re grocery shopping in—you’re there to shop for food, not admire the layout! But that’s not just it!

“Grocery stores want to create a separate environment within the stores, where the outside world doesn’t exist,” explains Andrei Vasilescu, a shopping expert who has studied shopping behaviors and psychology. “You don’t get bothered by the rain, sunshine, or the fact that your kids are waiting in the parking lot. All your focus is on the shopping experience.” This technique also prevents shoppers from noticing that it’s getting dark out.

“Walls instead of windows can keep daylight out of grocery stores and help preserve the products, as some products can go bad faster in direct sunlight. Too much sun exposure can even cause packaging labels to fade. Furthermore, having windows in their stores would decrease the space available to showcase products,” says Margine Biswas, an architect with expertise in retail (零售) design. “Compared to windows, exterior (外部的) walls have stronger structural supports and can hold the heavier items on the shelves of those walls.”

Are some grocery stores going against this trend? In Germany, a study was conducted to test out stores with more natural light. A few stores had some bread products going bad rapidly due to the sunlight. They needed to replace the glass with specially designed panes (窗格) that help reduce the heat and radiation. This technique hasn’t caught on widely yet. A National Rewable Energy laboratory study in 2002 assessed the effects of natural light on shoppers—and it found that shoppers felt vastly more comfortable when there was more natural light around. They were also better able to identify both products and other people in the stores. It’s worth noting; though, that this study assessed natural light in all retail spaces, not just grocery stores. The challenges of adding more natural light to grocery stores remain.

【1】How does a grocery store without windows influence its shoppers?

A．It keeps them absorbed in shopping.

B．It helps to strengthen family bonds.

C．It prevents them from shopping relaxedly.

D．It misleads them to buy unnecessary goods.

【2】“What do Margine Biswas’s words mainly suggest about grocery stores?

A．Retail design is not complex.

B．Natural light is available.

C．Windows still have their value.

D．Windows barely benefit them.

【3】What is the author’s opinion on adding more natural light to grocery stores?

A．It can be carried out widely.

B．Shoppers will be discouraged by it.

C．It proves less challenging.

D．The stores should be cautious.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A．Potential effects of natural light on grocery stores.

B．Reasons why most grocery stores have no windows.

C．Some tricks applied by a majority of grocery stores.

D．How consumers can better enjoy grocery shopping.

23、   Students in Washington, D.C., will return to classrooms this month to begin a new school year. But at least five percent of their teachers will not return with them. Last month, the District of Columbia public schools told two hundred six teachers that they are not good enough to stay.

The school system dismissed seventy-five teachers last year. It was the first year of a new teacher rating system. Experts say such large numbers of dismissals are rare in American schools. But in Washington the rating system is not governed by the labor contract (劳务合同) with teachers union. So school officials have more freedom. The system is called IMPACT. Teachers are observed in the classrooms five times a year for at least thirty minutes each time. They are also judged by student test scores.

Emily Cohen, a policy director, says the National Council supports the IMPACT system She says, “This is an evaluation method that is finally able to find who is highly effective and who is ineffective.” Michelle Rhee created the IMPACT system. She gained national attention for her aggressive reform efforts when she led the troubled school system in the nation’s capital.

Some Washington teachers say their rating depend too heavily on test scores. For some teachers, half of their rating is based on how well their students do. But Emily Cohen says test scores are important. “Testing is probably one of the-it’s the most objective data that we have on teacher performance. So it’s not just looking at student test performance, it is using other sources of data.”

Almost sixty percent of the teachers who were rated “minimally effective” last year stayed in the school system and improved. School officials say these teachers received help to become better.

【1】We can infer from paragraph l and 2 that________.

A．objective

B．positive

C．negative

D．questioning

A．New School Year

B．The IMPACT System

C．Teachers Are Dismissed

D．Students’ Test Scores
