Many people travel to different places in the world by air. Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plan. So airlines（航空公司）offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?
To solve this problem, airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they don’t want to lose customers.
However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude（海拔）we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure（气压）reduces one third of the sensibility（感觉）of our taste buds（味蕾）. So our taste buds become senseless. The sad face, however, is that our noses don’t know it.
All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy（辛辣的）food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.
Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.
Though scientists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they can’t deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.
1.In Paragraph 2, “this problem” means ______.
A.passengers stay long in the plane
B.food on the plane tastes bad
C.passengers have no food to eat
D.food on the plane is expensive
2.What do airlines do to solve this problem?
A.Get more customers. B.Offer more food.
C.Improve their food. D.Reduce the ticket price.
3.As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure reduces of the sensibility of our taste buds.
A.half B.one third
C.one fourth D.one fifth
4.Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?
A.The volunteers don’t know about food taste.
B.The volunteers don’t understand them.
C.They can’t find enough volunteers.
D.They can’t deal with the special environment successfully.
5.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Taste of Airplane Food
B.Airplane Travel
C.Scientific Research on Noses
D.The Change in Air Pressure

You may think there is nothing but sand in the desert of the world, but it is not true. In the desert we can find small stones or even big ones. We can see hills, too. There is a little rain in the desert, but it is not enough for most plants. Still we can see some plants live in the desert.
There is water in some places in the desert. We call these places oases (绿州).Sometimes the water comes from under the ground and sometimes it comes from rivers running through the desert. In the oases, there are villages and towns. People grow all kinds of crops in the fields there.
People also live outside the oases, but these people are not farmers. They have camels, goats, sheep and other animals. These animals can live on the desert plants and do not need much water.
The animals are useful to the desert people in many ways. The desert people eat the meat and drink the milk of the animals. They use their skins to make shoes, water bags and even tents. They use the camels for carrying things.
The people of the desert have to keep going from place to place. They must always look for grass or desert plants for their animals. They usually live intents.' When there is no more food for their animals, they take down their tents，put them on their camels and look for a new place. The desert people are friendly. No man in the desert would ever refuse to help the people in trouble and give them food and water.
根据上文判断正（T）误（F）。
1.The rain in the desert is enough for some plants,
2.There are farmers not only in the oases but also outside the oases.
3.The water in the oases mostly comes from the rain.
4.The camels are used for carrying things by the desert people.
