Air Transportation
Nature of the Industry
Air travel in the United States grew at a rapid pace until 2001, expanding from 172 million passengers in 1970 to nearly 642 million in 2003. However, over the next 3 years, a combination of factors--including the events of September 11, 2001, and an economic recession--combined to reduce traffic to 1996 levels. Nevertheless, air travel remains one of the most popular modes of transportation.
Airlines transport passengers and freight over regularly scheduled routes or on routes. Several classes of airlines function in the United States. As of 2004, there were 15 major airlines---12 passenger and 3 all cargo--which the U.S. Department of Transportation defines as having operating revenues of more than ＄1 billion. The largest of these, often called the Big Six, generally have a hub and also fly internationally. A hub is a centrally located airport designated by an airline to receive a large number of its flights from many locations, and at which passengers can transfer to flights to any of the locations served by the airline system. In this way, the greatest number of passengers, from as many locations as possible, can be served in the most efficient way with a given set of resources.
In competition with the Big Six are low-cost, low-fare carriers. These carriers have traditionally not used hub and spoke systems and have offered flights between limited numbers of cities. They primarily have focused on flying shorter routes (400 miles or less) and on serving leisure travelers. But some low-fare carriers are expanding their routes to include longer transcontinental and nonstop flights. These moves have helped low-fare carriers expand their customer base to include more business travelers.
Another type of passenger airline carrier is the commuter or regional carrier. As of 2004, there were approximately 75 of these carriers. Regional airlines operate short-and medium-haul scheduled airline service connecting smaller communities with larger cities and with hubs. Some of the largest regional carriers are subsidiaries of the major airlines, but most are independently owned, often contracting their services to the majors. The regional airlines fleet consists primarily of smaller 19- to 68-seat turboprop and 40- to 70-seat jet aircraft. The regional airlines are the fastest growing segment of commercial aviation with I out of every 7 domestic airline passengers flying on a regional airline during at least part of his or her trip.
Air cargo is another sector of the airline industry. Cargo can be carried in cargo holds of passenger airlines or on aircraft designed exclusively to carry freight. Cargo carriers in this industry do not provide door-to-door service. Instead, they provide only air transport from an airport near the cargo's origin to an airport near the cargo destination. Companies that provide door-to-door delivery of parcels either across town or across the continent are classified in the couriers and messengers industry.
Most sectors of the airline industry were in a downturn in 2002, with several passenger airlines having declared bankruptcy and others on the verge of doing so. After 6 relatively successful years in the late 1990s, fueled by an increase in passenger volume and a booming economy, the growth in airline passenger traffic began to slow in 2001, coinciding with the economic recession. After the tragic events of September 11, 2001, passenger traffic dropped steeply, causing airlines to cut flights, lay off workers, and park surplus aircraft. Although passenger volume has since recovered somewhat, the growth rate in the industry will likely continue to be depressed for several years.
As the low-fare airlines continue to compete and gain market share over the higher-cost major airlines, and as passenger traffic remains lower, managing costs has become mor

ort, and convenience. These cars will float along never touching the ground, and therefore will have no need for wheels. Annoying highway vibrations, caused by the rotations of the disc-and-tire wheels, will be things of the past. The coming highway passenger cars will literally fly above the road, supported on columns of air compressed by
turbine-driven fans.
The car without wheels has been called a “flying car” , and, in a sense, that’ s just what it is; however, it will not back out of the family garage, start down the street, and then suddenly go quickly upward heading for some distant point. On the contrary, to avoid problems in aerial navigation, the wheel-less vehicle probably will travel no more than three inches above road surface. It will travel over fairly rough road and even over smooth water.
The inevitable problems of maritime regulations, severe weather conditions, and running out of fuel in remote areas all will require new concepts of operation, servicing, and vehicle regulation.

2.Cars of the future will run _______ .
A、without annoying noise
B、without fuel
C、much more smoothly
D、on a number of fans
3.The car without wheels has been called a “flying car” because _______ .
A、it travels a few inches above the ground
B、it can fly as a plane does
C、it moves at a very high speed

4.Where is a wheel-less car least fit to travel_____ .
A、Over soft land
B、Over rough country roads
C、Over highways
D、Over waterfalls

A man shot Martin Luther King in Atlanta on 4th April, 1968. He drove a white Ford car. Who was he.'？ The police found "Harvey Lowmeyer's" gun and "John Willard' s" shirt, and then the white car. It was "Eric Starvo Galt's' '' car. So what was this man's real name？ Marks on the car were sent to Los Angeles. 300 detectives questioned people. At last one found a photograph of "Galt". Then detectives in Atlanta found a fingerprint. It was on a map in "Galt's" room in a small hotel. One fingerprint was enough. James Earl Ray's fingerprints were already on the F.B.I. (联邦调查局) cards. The police watched railway stations, hotels and airport. 3,000 detectives were trying to find Ray, yet things went unsuccessfully. The Canadian police were helping too. They looked at 24,000 photographs in their Passport Office. Then they found one of "Ramon George Sneyd ", "We gave this man a passport last month," they said, "He went to London on 2nd May." The man was wearing thick glasses but the London Airport saw Sneyd's name on a passenger list. It was the end of the biggest man-hunt in history. The F.B.I. spent 1.4 million dollars, but they got their man.
The man called Ray was believed to be the real murderer of Martin Luther King because _________.
A．some people described his looking to the police
B．he had been to Canada and got a Canadian passport in the name of Ramon George Sneyd
C．one of his fingerprints was the same as the one found in "Gaits" room
D．he had a white Ford car, which the police found in Atlanta

听力原文：M: Hi Diana, mind if I sit down？
W: Not at all, Jerry. How have you been？
M: Good. But I'm surprised to see you on the city bus. Is your car in the shop？
W: No. I've just been thinking a lot about the environment lately. I think the air will be a lot cleaner if we all use public transportation when we could.
M: You are right. The diesel bus isn't exactly pollution free.
W: True. But they'll be running a lot cleaner soon. We were just talking about that in my environmental engineering class.
M: What's the city going to do？ Install pollution filters in the buses？
W: They could, but those filters make the engines work harder and really cut down on fuel efficiency. Instead they found a way to make their engines more efficient.
M: How？
W: Well, there is a material called the coniine oxide. It's a really good insulator. And a thick coat of it gets sprayed on the certain part of the engine.
M: An insulator？
W: Yeah. Actually, what it does is to reflect back the heat of burning fuel. So the fuel will bum more completely.
M: Sounds like people should all go out and get this stuff to spray their car engines.
W: Well, it's not really that easy. You first have to heat the material over 10,000 degrees and then, well, you get the idea. It's not something you or I can do ourselves.

Automobiles VS Public Transport
Public transport plays a central role in any efficient urban transport system in developing countries, where at least 16 cities are expected to have more than 12 million people each by the end of this decade, failing to give priority to public transport would be disastrous.
The term "public transport" covers many different types of vehicles, but most commonly refers to buses and trains. Rail services fall into four major categories: rapid rail (also called the underground, tube, metro, or subway), which operates on exclusive rights-of-way (优先行驶权) in tunnels or on elevated tracks; trams, which move with other traffic on regular streets; light rail, which is a quieter, more modern version of trams that can run either on exclusive rights-of-way or with other traffic: and suburban or regional trains, which connect a city with surrounding areas.
The recent trend in many cities is toward light rail over "heavy" rapid-rail systems. Whereas metros require exclusive rights-of-way, which often means building costly elevated or underground lines and stations, light rail can be built on regular city streets.
The concept of public transport also includes organized car pools, in which several people share the cost of riding together in the same private automobile. For US commuters in areas with inadequate bus and train services, this is the only "public" transport option. But even where other systems are comprehensive, there is vast potential for car pooling; recent research shows that in cities the world over, private cars during commuting hours on average carry just 1.2 1.3 persons per vehicle.
Public transport modes vary in fuel use and emissions and in the space they require, but if carrying reasonable numbers of passengers, they all perform. better than single-occupant private cars on each of these counts.
Although energy requirements vary according to the size and design of the vehicle and how many people are on board, buses and trains require far less fuel per passenger for each kilometer of travel. In the United States, for example, a light-rail vehicle needs an estimated 640 BTUs (British Thermal Units, measure of energy consumed) of energy per passenger per kilometer; a city bus would use some 690 BTUs per passenger-kilometer; and a car pool with four occupants 1,140 BTUs. A single-occupant automobile, by contrast, consumes nearly 4,580 BTUs per passenger-kilometer.
The pollution savings from public transport are even more dramatic. Since both rapid and light rail have electric engines, pollution is measured not from the motor exhaust, but from the power plant generating electricity, which is usually located outside the city, where air quality problems are less serious. For typical U.S. commuter routes, rapid rail emits 30 grams of nitrogen oxides for every 100 kilometers each rail passenger travels, compared with 43 grams for light rail, 95 grams for transit buses, and 128 grams for single-occupant automobiles. Public transport's potential for reducing hydrocarbon (碳氢化合物)and carbon monoxide(一氧化碳)emissions is even greater.
Although diesel buses—especially in developing countries—can be heavy polluters, existing technologies, such as filters, can control their exhaust. Buses can also run on less polluting fuels such as propane (丙烷, used in parts of Europe) and natural gas (used in Brazil and China). Test buses in the Netherlands that run on natural gas are estimated to emit 90 percent less nitrogen oxide and 25 percent less carbon monoxide than diesel engines do.
In addition to reducing fuel consumption and pollution, public transport saves valuable city space. Buses and trains carry more people in each vehicle and, if they operate on their own rights-of-way, can safely run at much higher speeds. In other words, they not only take up less space but also occupy it for
