41、super-fast, relatively cheap airplanes called “very light jets” (VLJs) finally go into service.Thanks to breakthroughs in the performance of engines for small jets, along with better airplane manufacturing techniques, companies such as Eclipse Aviation, the Albuquerque, and Adam Aircraft of Denver a
42、re promising a new kind of airplanes for a new travel: jet-speed transportation between as many as 5,500.US. airports and in planes that cost less than before.Waiting for final certification by the Federal Aviation Administration, Eclipses six-seat E500 could be in the hands of pilots this July.Line
43、ar Air has already ordered 30 of the Eclipse very light jets and plans to put them in service between August and late 2007. The planes can fly at more than 400 mph, twice the typical speed of private propeller-driven planes.“This is the absolute future, and everybody in the aviation business knows i
44、t,” said Arthur Allen, chairman of the Massachusetts Aeronautics Commission, which oversees 38 smaller airports around the States.Because VLJs weigh as little as a minivan（小客车）, they can land on runways as short as 3,000 feet-compared with 4,000 or 5,000 feet required by the smaller jets today. Alle
45、n forecasts that the new jets will open up new markets for air taxi and charter services.“Its like an executive car service with wings,” said Bill Herp, Linear Airs chief executive. “VLJs are going to revolutionize the way a large percentage of the traveling public gets around.” Parts of Linears pla
46、n with scheduled charter service is to introduce passengers who have a licence to operate a jet by themselves to the private plane experience and turn them to future consumers for $ 1,500 or $3,000 charter flights, either for business or vacation travels.For Herp, the huge advantage of VLJs is that
47、they will cost one-third as much to buy and half as much to operate per hour as traditional small jets, vastly extending the market for air taxi and charter services.64. According to the text，which of the following is NOT true about the new jets?A. They can cost less both in buying and using.B. They
48、 can carry more people on the board.C. They can fly faster and can be more convenient.D. They need shorter runways.65.

According to the text, the underlined phrase “charter service” is a service .A. for those who want to hire a plane for a particular purpose.B. for those who want to have a chat while flying.C. for those who want to save money for their tra
50、vel.D. for those who want to enjoy a cheap but pleasant flight.67. We can infer from the text that .A. the jets can be operated by car drivers in the futureB. only the rich can use the new jets as their private planesC. the new jets will have a promising marketD. all companies in aviation will exten
51、d the market abroadDAccording to a report by the China News Weekly, Chinese white collars are becoming fully occupied in the office. They pursue many of their activities in the office building, eating, doing exercise, resting, playing games or even dating.In large cities such as Shenzhen, Shanghai a
52、nd Beijing, where economy is developing at a fast speed, office workers face an increasing work pressure day by day and many of them have begun to make office their home.As the young generation in society, most of them are aged between 25 and 45.

53、fe: they lead the fashion trend in the city and earn a high salary; they enjoy a flexible(灵活的) working schedule and a very good working environment; having a good education background, they dont have to worry that one day they will lose their jobs.However, only the white collars themselves know what
54、 others see as a good life is in fact a boring life. They often work for extra hours, suffer from loss of creative ability and have little time to make friends. When they go off from work late at night, sometimes they might think of asking for a leave the next day and having a holiday somewhere. How
55、ever, when a new day begins, they find everything back to normal and themselves pushed by new tasks.In fact, even if they dont work for extra hours in the office, they have no place to go.
