小题1:细节理解题。根据文章的 开头A passenger told an air hostess that he needed a cup of water to take his medicine when the plane just took off.在飞机刚刚起飞后,一名乘客对空姐说他需要一杯水来吃药。由此我们可以知道答案为B。
小题2:细节理解题。根据文章第一段she was kept so busy that she forgot to give him the water,她如此忙以至于她忘了给乘客拿水。由此我们可以知道是这位空姐是因为太忙了所以把这件事忘了。故选C。
小题3:推理判断题。由文意可知,空姐因为太忙而忘了给乘客拿水,虽然之后她给乘客拿来了水但是却被拒绝了,这位乘客生气了,所以空姐以为他会在小册子上写对他不好的话。故选A。
小题4:词义猜测题。句意:我怎么能拒绝你真诚的微笑呢?由文意可知,虽然乘客很生气,不接受空姐的服务,但是这位空姐每次经过他的时候都面带微笑的问他是否需要帮助。这位空姐是真诚的,她是真的想要为乘客服务,所以她脸上的微笑也是真诚的。故选C。
小题5:主旨大意题。这篇文章主要为我们讲了一个空姐用自己真诚的微笑打动乘客的故事,故twelve smiles,十二个微笑,这个题目最能概括出本文的大意,故选C。

There once was a master who went to India. In those times, we didn"t have airplanes or many kinds of transportation that we do now. So the master went to India     . And when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit. In India they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is    because they can"t grow much       the water situation. So he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit. And it was the cheapest in the shop, not expensive at all.
So he     and asked, "How much per kilo?" And the shopkeeper said, "Two rupees."(印度货币) Two rupees in India is     ; it"s like dirt (尘土). So he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. But after he ate some of it: Oh, my God! His     __ watered, his mouth watered and burned, his eyes were burning, his head was burning and his face became     . As he coughed terribly , he       up and down, saying, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"
But he still continued to eat the fruit! Some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, "You"re crazy, man. Those are chilies(辣椒)! You can"t eat so many; they"re not good for you! People use them      a condiment(作料), but only a little bit to put into food for taste. You can"t just eat them by the handful like that; they"re not      !" So the silly master said, "No, I can"t stop! I paid money for them,      now I"ll eat them. It"s my     !"
And you think that master was silly, right? Similarly, we sometimes do a lot of things like that. we still continue just because we"ve    money, time, effort and love into it. Just like the man who ate the chilies and felt so bad but couldn"t stop because he didn"t want to waste the money he"d paid.
So     you"ve lost something, let it go and move on. That"s better than continuing to      .

“I’m not cold,” the woman replies, “I fear for my life!”

Why are first ladies so important in the United States? They are unpaid and have no official work? There are several reasons, but the most important reason is they are role models for other women in the United States.
Jacqueline Kennedy was the best first lady in the US. Although she wasn"t an actress, model or singer, she was a fashion and cultural icon(文化偶像) who charmed people wherever she went.
If you are looking for someone who is as charming as Jacqueline Kennedy, it will be hard to find anyone more suitable than Peng Liyuan, wife of Chinese President Xi Jinping.

But she is not only famous for her voice and great achievements, but also for her charity efforts. She has, among other things, worked as a member of World Health Organization to fight against AIDS, and has done much in 2008 Sichuan earthquake.
