The American believe that anybody can become President of the United States. In a recent Hollyhood comedy(喜劇), that is exactly what happens.

Dave Kovic, played by Kevin Kline, is a kind-hearted man who runs a business that finds people jobs. He leads a typical(典型的) American way of life, except for one thing— he looks exactly like the President, Bill Mitchell. In fact, the only thing that makes him different from the nation’s leader is that he is very nice!

The president has started using look-alikes during some public appearance. Dave is offered a chance to “serve his country” by becoming one. However, things go wrong. The President becomes very ill and Dave ends up acting as the President forever.

Director Ivan Reitman, who made the popular and successful comedies like Twins, Ghostbusters and Legal Eagles, could have gone for easy laughs by making fun of the American government. Instead, Dave is an attractive comedy about an ordinary man in extraordinary situations. Kevin Kline gives a double performance as Dave and the President, and Sigourney Weaver is at her best as his First Lady. The love story that develops between her role and Dave is a real classic(經(jīng)典).

The film is 100% American. However, if you’ve ever felt that anybody could do a better job running the country than the people in power, then you’ll enjoy Dave!

1. What is the purpose of the text?

A. To tell the reader about the American government

B. To discuss the Americans’ ideas about the President

C. To make a comparison(對比) between Dave and other film.

D. To introduce a new film to the reader.

2.Who plays the role of the President in the film?

A. Sigourney Weaver B. Kevin Kline

C. Bill Mitchell D. Ivan Reitman

3.The underlined word “one” in the 3rd paragraph refers to __________.

A. the President B. the director

C. an actor D. a look-alike

4. Which of the following is best supported by the text?

A. The author makes fun of the President.

B. The author thinks highly of the film

C. The author is a fan of Hollywood comedies.

D. The author wishes to become the American President.

Finally, the long-awaited flying car is almost here.

AeroMobil, a Slovakian company, plans to start selling its creation, the AeroMobil3. 0, in 2017. The company claims on its site that the vehicle “transforms in seconds from an automobile to an airplane" by using “existing infrastructure created for automobiles and planes."The vehicle is petrol-powered and has wings that fold, which allows it to be parked like a car, though it is nearly 20 feet long.

The company's website features a video where the AeroMobil 3. 0 drives out of a hangar (飛 機棚 )and goes down a highway, sharing the road with ordinary cars until it arrives at an airstrip. The car then unfolds its wings and takes off from a stretch of grass, rather than a paved tarmac (柏油路面), and flies through the air like any other small airplane.

AeroMobil spokesman Stefan Vadocz said his company hasn't decided on an exact price because it's not ready yet."The prototype is a work in progress," he said in an email. But he said the price would be several hundreds of thousands of euros---somewhere in between a sports car and a light sports aircraft.

The vehicle seats two people---the pilot and a passenger---and its single propeller (螺旋槳) is located at the rear of the plane. The company said the car's top speed on the road is at least 99 mph and while flying it is at least 124 mph. It can fly for 435 miles before running out of fuel. It has a steel framework and carbon coating and is powered by a Rotax 912, a four-cylinder (氣缸) aircraft engine from BRP of Austria.

Flying cars aren't exactly new. The concept has been around since long before The Jetsons popularized the idea in the 1960s. It has been a regular topic in Popular Science ever since World War I ace, Eddie Rickenbacker, wrote about it in 1924.

But getting a practical, reliable flying car off the ground has been a serious challenge.

Glenn Curtiss discovered this in 1918 when he developed the Curtiss Autoplane. It turned out to be more of a hopper than a flyer, so it failed to become popular with the public.

1.What allows the AeroMobil3. 0 to be parked as a car?

A. Its steel framework and folding wings.

B. Its petrol-powered engine and folding wings.

C. Its 99mph top speed and petrol-powered engine.

D. Its ordinary car engine and folding wings.

2.What is the biggest difference between the AeroMobil 3. 0 and other airplanes?

A. It is powered by aircraft fuel.

B. It can fly as fast as airplanes.

C. It has a propeller.

D. It can take off from a stretch of grass.

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The AeroMobil3. 0's price will fall very soon.

B. The design work on the AeroMobil 3. 0 is still in progress.

C. The price of the AeroMobil 3. 0 will be higher than a light sports aircraft.

D. The price of the AeroMobil 3. 0 will be the same as a sports car.

4.What is the main purpose of the fifth paragraph?

A. To describe some of the features of the AeroMobil3. 0.

B. To explain why the AeroMobil3. 0 is better than an airplane.

C. To explain the difference between the AeroMobil3. 0 and other airplanes.

D. To explain why the price of the AeroMobil 3. 0 is high.

The first Thanksgiving in America takes place in October, 1621. In 1620, the group of Englishmen sailed to Massachusetts. They had expected to find a freely place to live in, so they experienced a hard winter. Half of them starved death. The next spring, we began farming. With the help of local Indians, they learned to be plant corn and raise animals. In the autumn, the fields produced a good harvest. Filling with joy and thanks to God, they held a celebration. In 1863, it became a national holiday.
