　　閱讀理解：

　　The original flight did not end well. In July 1937, near the end of her trip, Earharts Lockheed 10E airplane suddenly disappeared over the Pacific Ocean.

　　Amelia had to navigate by the stars, an impossible task on a cloudy night, Finch says. Finch, in contrast, will be able to know her exact location-even while flying over the ocean-using the-Global Positioning system . This ring of orbiting satellites continuously transmits radio signals to Earth. To calculate her position, Finchs GPS receiver will measure how long it takes radio signals transmitted from various satellites to reach the plane. Knowing her location is especially important when flying around the equator, as Earhart did. In that region, thunderstorms are dangerous. I cant fly through thunderstorms, says Finch, because, the winds moving up and down could break the plane. And Finch will not be able to fly above the storms because her airplane Electra is not pressurized. That means the plane is not equipped to pump in outside air to make breathing easier at high altitudes. So Finch will fly around storms-or wait for them to pass. But unlike Earhart, Finch will know what weather is ahead. She will receive regular reports via radar from Naval stations around the globe.

　　41 What happened to Earhart?

　　B　Her airplane was blown away by the strong winds over the equator.

　　D　Her airplane disappeared while flying over the Pacific Ocean.

　　A Finchs airplane is a jet plane while Earharts was not.

　　C No differences have been found. Finchs airplane is an exact copy Of Earharts in every aspect.

　　43 What would happen if Finch tried to fly through the storms over the equator?

　　B She could not stand the plane moving up and down strongly in the storms.

　　D　She might not be able to control her plane.

　　A The plane exerts pressure on the pilot.

　　C The plane cannot keep stable in the storms because the air pressure is not high enough.

　　45 Which of the following statements is true?

　　B Finch will be in communication with the Naval stations around the globe only.

　　D Finch will be allowed to communicate with anyone while flying over the Pacific Ocean.
