Few people expect luxury while flying, but these days, even the basics seem to be in bad shape. It's not uncommon to find your tray table broken, the in-flight entertainment system not working and your seat 【T1】______ worn—all of which can make you think, how old is this plane anyway? The reality for many U.S. air travelers is that most of their journeys take place on planes that have been in service for a【T2】______ or more.The average age of the fleet of the seven large U.S. passenger airlines is about 14 years old, according to The Airline Monitor. It found American and Delta/Northwest had the oldest fleets, at about 16 years on average. As of the end of 2008, a small percentage of the 【T3】______Delta/Northwest's planes dated back to the late 1960s. U.S. fleets are among the oldest in the world, said Richard Aboulafia, an【T4】______ analyst. "I'm not really sure that people should read that much into that," Aboulafia said. "From a safety【T5】______, a lot of the older planes were built tougher and with proper【T6】______, there's no reason why a plane can't stay safe for 25 to 30 years." It's also important to remember that a plane may be 20 years old, but its engines and other major systems could have been recently 【T7】______ or upgraded, said Aboulafia. There's less pressure on the airlines to【T8】______ the【T9】______, unless it's a safety【T10】______ or a redesign that will save money.

Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals, but this is largely because,【C1】______ animals, we stand upright. This means that our noses are【C2】______to perceiving those smells which float through the air, missing the majority of smells which stick to【C3】______. In fact, though, we are extremely sensitive to smells, even if we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of【C4】______human smells even when these are diluted to far below one part in one million. Strangely, some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, whereas others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate【C5】______smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send【C6】______to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell at first can suddenly become sensitive to it when exposed to it often enough. The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that the brain finds it【C7】______to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can【C8】______new receptors if necessary. This may also explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells-we simply do not need to be. We are not【C9】______of the usual smell of our own house, but we notice new smells when we visit someone else's. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors available for unfamiliar and【C10】______ signals such as the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.

A. pushing B. remain C. pregnant D. humiliating E. underground F. vitally G. dragging H. derive I. oblivious J. prefer K deprive L. brains M. pleasant N. veins O. willing It is not long since conditions in the mines were worse than they are now. There are still living a few very old women who in their youth have worked【C1】______, with harness round their waists, and a chain that passed between their legs, crawling on all fours and【C2】______ tugs of coal. They used to go on doing this even when they were【C3】______. And even now, if coal could not be produced without pregnant women dragging it to and fro, I fancy we should let them do it rather than【C4】______ ourselves of coal. But most of the time, of course, we【C5】______ to forget that they were doing it. It is the same with all types of manual work; it keeps us alive, and we are【C6】______ of its existence. More than anything else perhaps, the miner can stand as the type of manual worker, not only because it is so【C7】______ necessary and yet so silent, that we are capable of forgetting it as we forget the blood in our【C8】______. In a way it is even【C9】______ to watch coal-miners working. It raises in you a momentary doubt about your own status as an "intellectual" and a superior person generally. For it is brought home to you, at least while you are watching, that it is only because miners sweat their guts out that superior persons can【C10】______ superior.

A. interaction B. experienced C. reflect D. response E. undertakenF. affect G. although H. frustration I. subject J. sufficientlyK. cooperation L. centering M. reference N. disadvantaged O. immune Many theories concerning the causes of juvenile delinquency (crimes committed by young people) focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence. Theories 【C1】______ on the individual suggest that children engage in criminal behavior because they were not【C2】______ penalized for previous misdeeds or that they have learned criminal behavior through【C3】______ with others. Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes in【C4】______ to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status, or as a rejection of middle-class values. Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from【C5】______ families, ignoring the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes. The latter may commit crimes for lack of adequate parental control. All theories, however, are tentative and are【C6】______ to criticism. Changes in the social structure may indirectly【C7】______ juvenile crime rates. For example, changes in the economy that lead to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment in general make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain. The resulting discontent may in turn lead more youths into criminal behavior. Families have also【C8】______ changes these years. More families consist of one-parent households or two working parents consequently, children are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family structure. This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other identifiable causes of offensive acts include【C9】______ or failure in school, the increased availability of drugs and alcohol, and the growing incidence of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act, 【C10】______ a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.
