名师点评
本文讲解的是关于世界上最快的客机——协和式飞机(CONDORDE)的发展史。33年的历史、英法联手打造、耗资十多个亿、两倍于声速……无一不使人们叹为观止。
答案简析
1.C。本句如选invented或produced，得用被动语态，took off是“起飞”的意思，这里意指“它第一次飞行是在……”因此，用flew最为恰当。
2.A。both…and …是固定短语，为“……两者都”的意思。
3.B。根据文意，“两个国家都有造超声波飞机的梦想”，而不是“谈话”、“会议”、或“战斗”。
4.A。work on sth.意为“致力于……”。
5.D。cost“耗资”。paid，wanted的主语应是人，needed指根据计划需要耗资等的数量，cost本身就表示花费成本的数量。
6.B。voice意为“嗓音”;noise意为“噪音”;shout意为“大叫声”；speed of sound意为“声速”。
7.B。固定短语it takes sb. some time to do sth.
8.D。because后面是一个名词性词组，所以用because of意为“由于……的原因”。本句意为“由于英、美之间的五个小时的时间差”。
9.A。根据上下文之间的联系，意为“你坐协和式飞机从London到New York，有可能已经到了New York，而还没离开London。(这是由于时差)。
10.C。catch the flight 意为“赶上某次航班”。
11.C。下文省略了“than in London”。
12.B。“每架飞机”，只有用each，其他都不对。
13.A。so far “到目前为止”，本句意为“到目前为止，已造出二十架飞机”
14.D。通过上下文可知，这两个机场所拥有的协和式飞机最多。
15.C。本句的主语是they，而each只是同位语，所以不可用has，have一般不用进行时态，所以不可选D。
