Krystal Payne, a new waitress, wanted to do something to make Ibby feel more ________. So she spoke with other waiters about Ibby, learning that they always did what they could to give him excellent service.

But Payne wanted to take it a step further.

She went home and spent her night learning American Sign Language so she could better communicate with Ibby. The next day, she wrote him a small note saying: “I’ve been learning ASL, just so you can have the same _______as everyone else.”

Ibby was so moved by Payne’s action that he posted(貼) it on Facebook to share with his friends. His_______was then reposted by many other people – a result that he did not _______. But he is happy that Payne is getting what she deserves (應(yīng)得).

The next morning, Payne heard about the post when her manager_________her and mentioned that there were many requests(請求) from reporters to interview her. A Starbucks spokeswoman heard about her________action and said the company was “very proud” of Payne’s actions.

“My job is to________people have the experience they expect and that’s what I gave him,” said Payne.

Ibby sees Payne’s act of kindness as special encouragement. “It shows that she respects deaf people,” he said.

Payne now knows enough ASL to take Ibby’s________, which makes Ibby’s life much easier. In the past, Ibby would have to order through text messages that he would show to the waiters.

【題目】 Flights are often canceled for many different reasons, including snow, clouds, or even a bird getting caught in an airplane’s engine (發(fā)動機). But you’d never think that too much sunshine would stop a plane from taking off.

Unluckily for passengers in Phoenix, US this summer, their travel plans went dead when more than 40 flights in and out of the local airport were cancelled after temperatures went as high as 48°C. This is the highest temperature that many smaller planes are allowed to fly at.

So what is it that makes flying in great heat so dangerous? The answer lies in how “thick”, the air is.

“As air warms up, it expands (膨脹), and there’s fewer molecules (分子) under your wings,” Lou McNally, a professor at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in the US, told the Associated Press (AP).

When the temperature is high and the air becomes thin, “you need more of everything. You need more thrust (推力) to take off. You need more distance to take off. You need more distance to land. It gets to a point for some aircraft that it gets just too much,” McNally explained.

The US’ Southwest, where Phoenix is located, is experiencing an unexpectedly hot summer. This June was its third-hottest on record. According to The Guardian, up to 10 people are thought to have died as a result of the hot weather.

The unexpected heat attacked airlines(航空公司) too, causing them to cancel all flights running on smaller planes for the safety of their passengers.

But what about cities whose temperatures are high every summer?

Many airlines in hot Gulf countries such as the United Arab Emirates make many flights at night or in the early morning to avoid the problem of thin air, according to AP. They also mainly use larger planes, which are able to fly in greater heat than smaller planes.

After the temperature in Phoenix continued to climb over 40°C all through the rest of the summer, maybe now would be a good time for airlines to buy bigger planes in time for next year’s heat wave.

【1】When the weather is too hot, ______.

A.planes are more likely to break down

B.planes need more power and distance to take off

C.there is much more air under the wings of a plane

D.it takes less time for planes to take off and land

【2】How do airlines in Gulf countries deal with high temperatures?

A.They make many flights at midday.

B.They mainly use small planes.

C.They build long runways for planes.

D.They make fewer flights at midday.

【3】What’s the article mainly about?

A.Flight accidents caused by great heat.

B.Perfect flying conditions for aircraft.

C.How dangerous the flights are in hot weather.

D.How hot weather influences flights.
