1、Passage 2
Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.
Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.
The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large ―hot air balloon‖. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.1.Leonardo Da Vinci( ).

B. 　built a kind of machine which never flew

1、Passage 9What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know
how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.
Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is
important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as
stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.
From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible, learn the best
way of leaving by windows with the last chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person,
hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of
an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or
smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get
fresh air rather than smoke that may leak into the room.
On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From
the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement might end in injury.
Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.5. The best title of the passage is ________.
