The crash ofEgyptAir Flight 804, which terrorists may have downed over the Mediterranean Sea,provides another tragic reminder of why. But demanding too much of airtravelers or providing too little security in return undermines public supportfor the process. And it should: Wasted time is a drag on Americans ' economicand private lives, not to mention infuriating.Last year, the Transportation SecurityAdministration (TSA) found in a secret check that undercover investigators wereable to sneak weapons-both fake and real-past airport security nearly everytime they tried.

Itis not yet clear how much more effective airline security has become-but thelines are obvious.Part of the issue is that the governmentdid not anticipate the steep increase in airline travel, so the TSA is nowrushing to get new screeners on the line.

PreCheck is supposed to be a win-win for travelers andthe TSA. Passengers who pass a background check are eligible to use expectedscreening lanes. This allows the TSA to focus. on travelers who are higherrisk, saving time for everyone involved. The TSA wants to enroll 25 millionpeople in PreCheck.Ithas not gotten anywhere close to that, and one big reason is sticker shock:Passengers must pay $85 every five years to process their background checks.Since the beginning, this price tag has been PreCheck ' s fatal flaw. Upcomingreforms might bring the price to a more reasonable level. But Congress shouldlook into doing so directly, by helping to finance PreCheck enrollment or tocut costs in other ways.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

考题 单选题请阅读Passage 2,完成第 26~30小题。Passage 2For centuries in Spain and Latin America, heading home for lunch and a snooze with the family was some thing like a national right, but with global capitalism standardizing work hours, this idyllic habit is fast becoming an endangered pleasure. Ironically, all this is happening just as researchers are beginning to note the health benefits of the afternoon nap.According to a nationwide survey, less than 25 percent of Spaniards still enjoy siestas. And like Spain, much of Latin America has adopted Americanized work schedules, too, with shortened lunch times and more rigid work hours. Last year the Mexican government passed a law limiting lunch breaks to one hour and requiring its employees to work their eight-hour shift between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Before the mandate, workers would break up the shift-going home midday for a long break with the family and returning to work until about 9 or 10 p.m. The idea of siesta is changing in Greece, Italy and Portugal, too, as they rush to join their more industrious counterparts in the global market.Most Americans I know covet sleep, but the idea of taking a nap mid-afternoon equates with laziness, un employment and general sneakiness. Yet according to a National Sleep Survey poll, 65 percent of adults do not get enough sleep. Numerous scientific studies document the benefits of nap taking, including one1997 study on the deleterious effects of sleep deprivation in the journal Internal Medicine. The researchers found that fatigue harms not only marital and social relations but worker productivity.According to Mark Rosekind, a former NASA scientist and founder of Solutions in Cupertino, Calif., which educates businesses about the advantages of sanctioning naps, we're biologically programmed to get sleepy between 3 and 5 p.m. and 3 and 5 a.m. Our internal timekeeper-called the circadian clock-operates on a 24-hour rotation and every 12 hours there's a dip. In accordance with these natural sleep rhythms, Rosekind recommends that naps be either for 40 minutes or for two hours. Latin American countries, asserts Rosekind, have had it right all along. They've been in sync with their clocks; we haven't.Since most of the world is sleep-deprived, getting well under the recommended eight hours a night (adults get an average of 6.5 hours nightly), we usually operate on a kind ofidle midday. Naps are even more useful now that most of us forfeit sleep because of insane work schedules, longer commute times and stress, In a study published last April, Brazilian medical researchers noted that blood pressure and arterial blood pressure dropped during a siesta.We can infer from the second paragraph that Mexican workers now ____.A work fewer hours than in the pastB get home from work much later than in the pastC work more reasonable hours than in the pastD finish the workday earlier than in the past

考题 单选题Which of the following best describes the relationship between the two passages?A Passage 2 describes a significant. and discovery that contradicts the argument of Passage 1.B Passage 2 offers a theory that supports the main point in Passage 1.C Passage I provides a possible reason for the scientific inquiry presented in Passage 2.D Passage 1 relates an anecdote that explains the popular misconception in Passage 2.E Passage 2 provides a historical context for the discovery described in Passage 1.

考题 单选题Which statement most accurately describes the difference between the two passages?A Passage 1 deals less directly with the exportation of chimpanzees than does Passage 2.B Passage 1 is less concerned with the interaction between man and the land than is Passage 2.C Passage I pertains to a species in its indigenous habitat while Passage 2 addresses the same animal in nonnative settings.D Passage I ends with an expression of optimism and Passage 2 does not.E Passage I introduces a species and describes its status worldwide, while Passage 2 limits its discussion of that species to its activities in the Northern Hemisphere.
