　　The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may not be a terrorist with a gun, but the man with the portable computer in business class. In the last 15 years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference. The source of this interference remains unconfirmed, but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers, radio and cassette players and mobile telephones.

　　RTCA, an organization which advises the aviation(航空)industry, has recommended that all airlines ban(禁止)such devices from being used during“critical” stages of flight, particularly take-off and landing. Some experts have gone further, calling for a total ban during all flights. Currently,rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines. And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing, most are reluctant to enforce a total ban, given that many passengers want to work during flights.

　　The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic field might affect an aircraft's computers. Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication. But, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not.

　　The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable(易受損的)to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio systems in order to damage navigation equipment. As worrying, though, is the passenger who can't hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music's too loud.

　　31.The passage is mainly about______.

　　A. a new regulation for all airlines

　　B. the defects of electronic devices

　　C. a possible cause of aircraft crashes

　　D. effective safety measures for air flight

　　Best Answer:C

　　詳解：答案為C?？v觀全文，主要講述的是電磁波干擾可能是飛行安全的嚴(yán)重隱患。雖然未得到最后證實(shí)，老師們已開始指責(zé)飛機(jī)上一些電子裝置的應(yīng)用;還有人建議應(yīng)全面禁止機(jī)上使用這些裝置。然而由于很難測(cè)出電磁場(chǎng)是如何影響飛機(jī)航行的，航空業(yè)并沒(méi)有全面下達(dá)禁令。

　　32. What is said about the over 100 aircraft incidents in the past 15 years?

　　A. They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.

　　B. They may have taken place during take-off and landing.

　　C. They were proved to have been caused by the passengers portable computers.

　　D. They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.

　　Best Answer:D

　　詳解：答案為D。本題考察細(xì)節(jié)，答案見文中第一段"that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference"。

　　33. Few airlines want to impose a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because______.

　　A. they don't believe there is such a danger as radio interference

　　B. the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be proved

　　C. most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette players

　　D. they have other effective safety measures to fall back on

　　Best Answer:B

　　詳解：答案為B。根據(jù)文中第三段，電磁波的害處還有待于進(jìn)一步弄清。因此很少有航空公司想全面禁止乘客使用電子裝置，而且有些乘客也想在飛機(jī)旅途中工作。

　　34. Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on an airplane's computers?

　　A. Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplane.

　　B. Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with.

　　C. Because research scientists have not been able to produce the same effects in labs.

　　D. Because experts lack adequate equipment to do such research.

　　Best Answer:C

　　詳解：答案為C。見文中第三段最后一句。

　　35. It can he inferred from the passage that the author______.

　　A. is in favor of prohibiting passengers' use of electronic devices completely.

　　B. has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interference.

　　C. hasn't formed his own opinion on this problem.

　　D. regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flight.

　　Best Answer:C

　　詳解：答案為C。要求根據(jù)上下文推測(cè)作者態(tài)度。從行文中可看出，作者很謹(jǐn)慎。他指出了可能存在的問(wèn)題，然而又客觀地指出其證據(jù)不足。
