In the last15years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that couldhavebeen caused by electromagnetic interference. The source ofthisinterference remains unconfirmed, but increasingly, expertsarepointing the blame at portable electronic devices such asportablecomputers, radio and cassette players and mobiletelephones.RTCA,an organization which advises the aviation (航空)industry, hasrecommended that all airlines ban (禁止) such devicesfrom being usedduring critical stages of light, particularlytakeoff andlanding. Some experts have gone further, calling for atotal banduring all flights. Currently, rules on using thesedevices arecenter up to individual airlines. And although someairlines prohibitpassengers from using such equipment duringtakeoff and landing,most are reluctant to enforce a total ban,given that manypassengers want to work during flights.Thedifficulty is predictinghow electromagnetic fields might affect anaircrafts computers.Experts know that portable devices emitradiation which affectsthose wavelengths which aircraft use fornavigation andcommunication. But, because they have not been ableto reproducethese effects in a laboratory, they have no way ofknowing whetherthe interference might be dangerous or not.The factthat aircraftmay be vulnerable (易受损的) to interference raises therisk thatterrorists may use radio system in order to damagenavigationequipment. As worrying, though, is the passenger whocant hear theinstructions to turn off his radio because themusics tooloud.21.The passage is mainly about_______.A) a newregulation forall airlinesB) the defects of electronic devicesC) apossible causeof aircraft crashesD) effective safety measures forairflight22.What is said about the over 100 aircraft incidents inthepast 15 years?A) They may have been caused by the damage totheradio systems.B) They may have taken place during takeoffandlanding.C) They were proved to have been caused by thepassengersportable computers.D) They were suspected to haveresulted fromelectromagnetic interference.23.Few airlines want toimpose a totalban on their passengers using electronic devicesbecause_______.A)they dont believe there is such a danger as radiointerferenceB)the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference isyet to beprovedC) most passengers refuse to take a plane which bansthe useof radio and cassette playersD) they have other effectivesafetymeasures to fall back on24.Why is it difficult to predictthepossible effects of electromagnetic fields on anairplanescomputers?A) Because it is extremely dangerous to conductsuchresearch on an airplane.B) Because it remains a mysterywhatwavelengths are liable to be interfered with.C) Becauseresearchscientists have not been to produce the same effects inlabs.D)Because sxperts lack adequate equipment to do suchresearch.25.Itcan be inferred from the passage that theauthor_______.A) is infavor of prohibiting passengers use ofelectronic devicescompletelyB) has overestimated the danger ofelectromagneticinterferenceC) hasnt formed his own opinion on thisproblemD)regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total banduringflight
