In 1928, Amelia Earhart received a phone call that would change her life. She was invited to become the first woman passenger to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a plane. “The idea didn’t appeal to me at all.” she said, but she accepted the offer. On June 17, after several days’ delay due to bad weather, Amelia flew in a plane named Friendship with other two pilots.

Today, pilots routinely cross the Atlantic in abut seven hours, while Amelia’s first trip across the Atlantic took more than 20 hours! After that flight, Amelia became a media sensation. Following the trip, many parties were held in her honor and there was even a parade down Broadway in New York City. Because Amelia’s record-breaking career and physical appearance were similar to pioneering pilot and American hero. Charles Lindbergh, she earned the nickname of “Lady Lindy.”

Amelia wrote a book about her first flight across the Atlantic called 20 Hrs.,40 Min.: Our Flight in the Friendship. She continued to break records. She also improved her skills as a speaker and writer, always advocating women’s achievements.

Therefore, it is important to make preparations in advance of the hurricane season. to protect yourself and your family, you should first plan your escape route early. And remember to plan an alternative route just in case there is a problem with the first one.

A cell phone may not work after a hurricane so it is always a good idea to have access to a working radio. It will also keep you advised of the storm’s path In terms of your property, store valuables in a waterproof container on the highest level of your home.

Section C

17- 20

M: Thank you for applying to our company. I have a few questions for you. First of all, why did

you choose our company?

W: The work environment, I think. Actually, I mean the atmosphere. It’s competitive, but also

cooperative. In addition, the high salary also affected my decision.

M: What’s your education and working experience?

W: Well, from 2003 to 2007, I studied law at Beijing Normal University; then, for the next three

years, I worked for a foreign trade corporation. From 2010 until now, I have been teaching

English at a private educational agency. But since it had nothing to do with what I learned at

university, I decided to give it up.

M: Ok. Tell me something about your expectations for the position.

W: I don’t mind about being an assistant to a lawyer at the beginning, but I hope that, with my

hard work, I can become a lawyer myself in three years.

M: Yes, it’s always good to have a goal. That’s all for my questions, We will call you in five days.

W: OK, I look forward to your call.

21-24.

M: May I help you, Madam?

W: Yes, I’m sorry to trouble you, but I would really like to change my room.

M: I’m sorry to hear that. What’s the problem?

W: We booked a double room with a beach view a t2000 dollars per night, but the room we were

given has garden view. And you know that rooms with the beach view are 15 dollars higher

than one with the garden view, don’t you?

M: Yes, I see your point. But Madam, there are only single rooms with the beach view left.

W: What? It’s your mistake – you have to do something about it!

M: How about changing a room with a city view? It’s the same price as the room with the beach

view.

W: I appreciate that , but I’m really not crazy about a city view. The room would probably be

noisy at night, with all that traffic outside.

M: OK. What do you think if we give you the 15 dollars back?

W: That sounds great.
