Travelers from all over the world are invited to vote (投票) for the most punctual (准时的), the safest and the friendliest airline. The petition also invites them to tell their most horrible stories during their travels. Now lets read some travelers tales of bad flying experiences.One traveler shared his story which happened on a certain African airline. Even if some passengers had boarding cards, they couldnt still get the seats. They plained and shouted at the airport. Finally, the flight attendants solved the problem by setting a funny rule. Those passengers who ran fastest around the plane twice could get the seats at last.An overbooked flight that was going from Heathrow Airport to America gave another traveler a bit of a shock. Dressed only in trousers, a shirt and socks, the traveler had been allowed by the flight attendants to leave the aircraft to see if he could get a workmate aboard. But when he returned a few minutes later, he found the plane closed up and about to start moving - with his shoes, wallet, passport and luggage on board. He knocked heavily on the door and then was allowed to get back inside.Luggage is also a rich source of horror stories. There was the unlucky traveler who leftChicago where the temperature was minus(零下) 11 degrees centigrade. He was going to attend an important meeting in Dallas where the temperature was as high as 26.7 degrees centigrade. Unfortunately, his suitcase had gone to Los Angeles and wasnt able to be sent to him before the meeting. So he hadto_.88. Whom does Executive Travel invite to take part in the vote?_89.

Answer the questions(根据以下内容回答问题)(12分)In recent years, a number of Chinese technological innovation(科技创新)have been making waves around the world. Among them, four stand out. They are known as “four new great inventions” of modern China. They have made our daily lives more convenient.High-speed trains China created its first high-speed railway line in xx. Since then, the number of passenger trips has grown by over 30 percent every year. By xx, more than 5 billion trips had been taken on chinas bullet trains (高铁), according to Xinhua News Agency. China is currently working on the next-generation bullet trains that will have a top speed of 400 kilometers per hour. By 2020, one-fifth of the countrys 150,000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains. This network will link more than 80 percent of major cities across China, said Xinhua. Mobile paymentMobile payment is turning China into a “cashless society” led by third-party payment panies like Alipay. For example, instead of paying by cash, customers now pay for goods simply by typing a short password into Alipay app on their mobile devices. Users can also pay their bills through Alipay, such as their water and electricity bills. Alipay also supports cross-border(跨境的)online and in-store payment, which allows users to buy things on international websites and apps. Shared bikes Shared bike services started in Western countries. But China has surprised the world with how quickly it has adopted dockless (无桩的) shared bikes. Unlike traditional bike-sharing method, dockless bikes allow users to simply pick up or park a bike on the street through GPS and smartphone apps. To unlock a bike, you just need to scan a QR code on a shared bike with a smartphone app. After you finish riding, you can park it at available parking areas, lock it and pay for ride through mobile payment services. Online shoppingWith around 751 million internet users, China has long been the worlds largest and fastest-growing online shopping market. Online shopping now accounts for 15.5 percent of total retail sales in China, according to Xinhua. Thanks to lower costs and fewer licensing requirements (执照要求), its easier for sellers to open an online shop in China than a brick-and-mortar shop(实体店). It also helped to create jobs of rural areas. In xx, online shopping created more than 20 million jobs in rural areas, with over 8.1 million running their own online shops, said Xinhua.88. What is known as four new great inventions” of modern China?_89. When did China create its first high-speed railway line?_90. How do customers pay for goods if they dont pay by cash?_91. What do people need to do to unlock a shared bike?_92. Why is it easier for sellers to open an online shop in China than a brick-and-mortar shop?_93.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) (12分)A Cloud of Hope and DangerA small cloud floats through the air in a hospital operating room. In the room a patient, suffering from cancer, lies on a table. The cloud surrounds(包围) the patient, covering her body and filling her lungs(肺). The cloud is not smoke or steam. It is made of millions of microscopic robots called nanorobots(纳米机器人). These tiny robots move from cell(细胞) to cell in the patients body, destroying the cancer.Fighting cancer with nanorobots is only an idea today, but scientists say that it could be possible in the future. Using nanorobots for good purposes such as fighting disease or repairing the environment may be the solution to many of todays problems.However, nanorobots could be a dangerous risk as well. Since nanorobots are so tiny, they will have to work in large teams of many thousands to many millions. For this reason, nanorobots will have to be programmed to build themselves. Scientists will not have the ability to build millions of nanorobots one by one.This ability to reproduce is making some scientists worried. What if something goes wrong in the programming? Quite a lot of crazy nanorobots would be far worse than any disease. Some people think that if they get out of control, nanorobots could destroy the Earth.What should be done? Should we continue researching nanorobots or should we search for other methods? This is one of the many difficult decisions that we have to make in the future.88. What is the cloud in the passage, smoke and steam or microscopic robots?_89. What can be the good use of nanorobots for us?_90. Why will nanarobots have to work in large teams?_91.
