Statistically, air travel is by far the safest way to travel, and you can make flying even safer, just by following these rules. As your chances of being involved in an air accident are practically nil（不存在）, many of these tips concern what you should and shouldn't do to make your journey safer when you are airborne（升空的）. Fly on non-stop routes Most accidents occur during the takeoff, climb, descent and landing phases of a flight, so flying non-stop reduces your exposure to these complex procedures. Choose larger aircraft Although small aircraft have very good safety records, those with more than 30 passenger seats are designed to comply（遵守）with much stricter regulations and are tested more regularly to make sure they still comply. Also, in t he unlikely of a serious accident, larger aircraft provide a better opportunity for passenger survival. Pay attention to the pre-flight safety briefing The information may seem repetitious（重复的）, but it's worth listening to the flight attendants. And even if you’ve flown before, it doesn’t mean you know everything about the aircraft you're on, such as the location of the closest emergency exit. Store things safely Never put very heavy articles in the overhead storage bins. They may fall out when someone opens the bin and cause injury. Also, the bin may not be able to hold heavier objects during turbulence（气流）. Keep our seat belt fastened while you are seated Cabin crew always tell you this, but it’s important. You would be seriously injured if the plane hits unexpected turbulence. Always fasten your seat belt if you are told to. The general rule of flying is this: If you are told to do something, do it first and ask questions later. Let the flight attendant pour your hot drinks Flight attendants are trained to handle hot drinks like coffee or tea in a crowded aisle on a moving aircraft, so allow them to pour the drink and hand it to you. Never ask to take a coffee pot from one of them. 小题1:Whom is the passage meant for? A．Pilots. B．Flight attendants. C．Passengers.

D．Seat belts should be worn to protect against turbulence. 小题5:The best title of the passage should be”_____”. A．The safest way to travel B．Air safety tips C．Non-stop routes D．How to fly a plane

小题1: C

本文围绕“选择直飞航线”“留意安全须知”“系好安全带”等内容展开，均针对乘客在飞行中的安全行为提出建议，因此读者对象为乘客。

小题2: C

根据上下文，“those with more than 30 passenger seats”指代前文提到的“larger aircraft”（大型飞机），此处用“those”避免重复，强调大型飞机需遵守更严格的规定。

小题3: A

作者强调“机组人员总提醒但这很重要”，暗示尽管反复提醒，仍有乘客未充分重视系安全带。若大家都能遵守，便无需特别强调其重要性。

小题4: B

文中仅提到“大多数事故发生在起飞、爬升、下降和着陆阶段”，并未比较直飞航班中“起飞”与“着陆”的安全性，B项与原文不符。其他选项均能在文中找到对应依据。

小题5: B

全文围绕提升乘客飞行安全的具体建议展开，“Air safety tips”（飞行安全提示）最能概括主旨。A项范围过大（本文仅聚焦航空安全），C、D项为文章细节而非主旨。

答案：1-C 2-C 3-A 4-B 5-B

飞行安全需乘客与机组协作，这些看似细微的注意事项，实则是保障旅途平安的关键。下次登机时，你会优先关注哪条建议？
