Passage Four
Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?
Many people are afraid to assert themselves(坚持己见).Dr.Robert Alberti，author of Stand Up, Speak Out，and Talk Back, thinks it’s because of their lack of confidence.“Our structure of organization tends to make people distrust themselves.”says Alberti.“There’s always a‘superior’around-a parent，a teacher，a boss-who‘knows better’.These‘superiors’often gain when they keep breaking at your self-image.”
But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves.They offer“assertiveness training”courses-AT for short.In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves.They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so.They learn to be aggressive without hurting people.
In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear.A group taking an AT course will help the shy person to lose his fear.But AT uses an even stronger motive-the need to share.The shy person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels.
Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image.If someone you face is more“important”than you，you may feel less of a person.You start to doubt your own good sense.You go by the other person’ s label.But，why should you?AT says you can get to feel good about yourself.And once you do，you can learn to speak out.

参考答案：D
参考解析：“There’s always a‘superior’around-a parent，a teacher，a boss-who‘knows better’.These‘superiors’often gain when they keep breaking at your self-image.”
上句说明此机构的目的是帮助人们找回自信。答案：D
第50题单选 One of the objectives of AT courses is to____.

Passage Five
A wind tunnel is used for testing planes or plane models.In a wind tunnel air is blown over a plane ora model placed in a test section.Wind tunnel test sections are different in size depending on airflow speed requirements.Some low-speed tunnels have test sections large enough for a complete small plane.In the very high speed tunnels used for space testing，however，the model may be as small as a pencil.
There are two ways of feeding air to the test section.In the constant flow tunnel，airflow produced by electric fans is forced through the tunnel to the test section，then through another tunnel section back to the starting point for reuse.The other way involves storing high-pressure air in a box，sending it out by a controlling device to pass through the tunnel and test section into another box.This way is usually used for a very short period of high-speed airflow.
Wind tunnels are usually used to test planes before they are flown.Problems in a plane carl be found when it meets the high-speed airflow in the tunnel.For example，if the wings are built so that they would weaken at high speeds，this fact can be discovered in the tunnel，thus saving many lives and millions of dollars.
In a wind tunnel，scientists also find out how different planes will act at different speeds.They find out such things as how the air dives by the wing surfaces，how slowly a plane can fly before it starts to drop，and howfastit can climb.
第52题单选 Some wind tunnel sections are larger than others because____.
A.they are used for large planes
B.they can produce a stronger wind
C.they are built to conduct a high-speed test

A.it costs a lot to test a plane
B.the wings are not good enough
C.some problems are found with a plane
D.the wings meet the high-speed air flow in the tunnel
参考答案：B
参考解析：本句是说如果机翼劣质，高速飞行时会受损。问题中的this fact 指的是机翼质量不好。故B正确。
第54题单选 As mentioned in the last paragraph，a wind tunnel can be used to find out____.
A.how fast a plane can rise
B.how smooth a plane’s surface is
C.how a plane lands in a strong wind
D.how a plane drops at a low height
参考答案：A
参考解析：这个句子and how fast it can clim B.说明A是正确答案。
第55题单选 What can we learn from the passage?
A.It is very expensive to build a wind tunne
B.Wind tunnels are very essential in testing plane
