Before a new type of airplane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.
The first is called the \tank test\A modem airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure (结构)of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin of the plane inside. The pressure (压力) on a small window is like a huge foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane would explode in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, the plane is lowered into a huge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. Vne pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.
The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flights in the air. The test pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines (发动机) are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot' s job to find o

ut how he can get control of the plane again. These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.
68. By doing the \test\the engineers can find out _______.
A. the amount of air in the plane B. the strength of the plane structure
C. the. pressure inside and outside the plane D. the power of the airplane engines
69. What will happen to the plane under the \test\
A. It will be broken. B. It will be made stronger.
C. It will be filled with water. D. It will be tested by pilots,

A. The plane may explode in the air. B. The pilot may lose control of the plane. C. The engines may be damaged. D. Too much air may get into the plane.
71. What might be the most suitable title for the text? A. Two Important Tests on Airplanes B. The Importance of Flying Safely C. The Danger of Testing Airplanes D. How Airplanes Are Made and Tested

If you are a recent social science graduate who has had to listen to jokes about unemployment from your computer major classmates, you may have had the last laugh. There are many advantages for the social science major because this high-tech \Age\demands people who are flexible (灵活的) and who have good communication skills.
There are many social science majors in large companies who fill important positions. For example , a number of research studies found that social science majors had achieved greater managerial success than those who had technical training or pre-professional cour
