C The most scary words in the English language are, "Our computer is down." You hear it more and more when you are in business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell you a ticket. Our computer is down." "If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket." "I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so." I looked down the counter（柜台）and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and looking at the black screen. Then I asked her, "What do you do?" "We give the computer th e information about your trip and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not ." "So when it goes down, you go down with it." "That's right, sir." "How long will the computer be down?" I wanted to know. "I have no idea. Sometimes it's down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and because it's down it won't answer us." After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said, "Let's forget the computer. What about your planes? They're still flying, aren't they?" "I couldn't tell without asking the computer." "Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington," I suggested（建议）. "I don’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket." "Is there any other flight to Washington in the next few hours?" "I don’t know," she said, pointing at the dark screen. "Only 'IT' knows. But now 'IT' can't tell me."By this time there were quite a few people standing in line. The word spread to other travelers that the com puter was down. Some people left without a word, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage(行李).66. What can the girl in the ticket office do if she doesn’t use the computer?A. She can sell the tickets. B. She can help the passengers. C. She can write out the tickets. D. She can do nothing.67. What is the writer’s suggestion to solve(解决) the problem ?A. Fly with the pilot. B. Find the flight by himself. C. Make the computer work again. D. Talk with the passengers.68. How do passengers feel about the accident in the reading?A. Sad and angry. B. Cheerful and happy. C. Comfortable and pleased. D. Nothing special.69. What can you do if you are the boss of the airport ?A. Throw away all the computers. B. Help the workers answer passenger’s questions. C. Ask pilots to know more about planes. D. Get backup computers ready as soon as possible.70. The last paragraph shows that _________________________________.A. modern computers wont’be down B. sometimes computers bring troubles C. computers always help people a lot D. people can’t live if there’s no computer第二卷（非选择题，共35分）五、词与短语选择填空（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）仔细阅读下面五个句子，然后用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使每个句子在结构、意义和逻辑上正确。（提示：选项中有一个是多余的。）
