When an airplane was on fire and landed at the airport safely, many passengers on the plane were not in a hurry to exit the plane. These people were warned to leave their belongings and just get out. Instead, many of them reached up into the overhead cases and got their bags before they left the plane.We might react in the same way, but experts say it’s the wrong thing to do. We waste too much time getting our things, and whilst we’re trying to get out of the plane, the bags can block the way to the exit, or people can fall over the bags and injure themselves.Some experts think airlines should lock these cases, but many people think this would be very unpopular because passengers want to be able to get things out of their bags during the flight.Everyone agrees that in a life or death situation, our material things are not important.1.What do many passengers usually do in case of a risky landing?A) Become frustrated not knowing what to do.B) Leave their bags according to the warning.C) Leave the plane right away in a great hurry.D) Get their belongings before leaving the plane.2.Why do experts say it’s wrong to get personal belongings?A) To do this will cause some tragic death.B) To do this will block the overhead cases.C) To do this will damage personal belongings.D) To do this will waste too much time getting off.3.What has been agreed on by everyone?A) People shouldn’t get things during the flight.B) Airlines should lock all these cases on plane.C) Life is always more important than materials.D) Materials are always more important than life.

It's one of the greatest medical mysteries. Why does a person who never smokes a single cigarette end up with lung cancer while another person who smokes for decades remains cancer-free? The answer may be buried deep inside our genetic formation. Three separate teams of researchers found a genetic change that increases the risk of lung cancer. One team of researchers found that if you have the changed genes and smoke, you are also more likely to smoke more cigarettes a day than a smoker without those varied genes. Is this a gene that makes you smoke? This gene doesn't make you more likely to begin to smoke, but if you smoke, you smoke more. The authors of the study disagree on whether the increased risk of lung cancer is because those people with the changed gene may smoke more or if it's the genetic change itself that leads to cancer. This study is so important because we are going to be able to understand those genetic differences. And in the future then, we can do a better job of preventing those from starting to smoke and helping those who started to smoke to quit. Further studies of the changed genes could explain more mysteries like why some people's attempt to kick the habit always ends up smoking.1. [听力文本资源] What have the researchers discovered?
