Jill Walton, a robot made by that university, helps the students a lot when answering their questions. Jill seems to be an excellent teacher. She can give wonderful answers quickly.

The expression “mayday” is often heard in English movies. What does the expression mean and when should people use it?
“Mayday” is an emergency (紧急) code word. It is used around the world in voice communication. You might see a war movie in which an airplane is hit. The pilot turns on his radio and calls “mayday, mayday, mayday” to tell that his plane is in danger of crashing to the ground.
“Mayday” has nothing to do with the month of May. It comes from a French expression which means “help me”.
Mockford created “mayday” in the 1920s. Mockford was a radio officer at Croydon Airport in London. He was asked to think up a word that could be used in an emergency. The word had to be easily understood by all pilots and airport workers. Much of the air traffic at that time was between Croydon Airport and Le Bourget Airport near Paris. And the expression “mayday” he created sounded like a French word which meant “help me”. So the word “mayday” finally came into use.
Today, many groups use the word to mean a life-treating emergency. The call is always given three times to prevent mistaking it for some similar sounding words.
Many other French words are commonly used in English. Do you know any other word and its story?
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
27. What does the word “mayday” mean according to the passage?
A. Help me. B. The first day of May.
C. Follow me. D. Nothing is in danger.
28. When was the word “mayday” created?
A In the 1910s. B. In the 1920s. C. In the 1930s. D. In the 1940s.
29. Who had to understand the word “mayday” according to the passage?
A. All the people in the world. B. All the people in the plane.
C. All the soldiers in the war. D. All pilots and airport workers.
30. How many times is the word “mayday” always given when there is an emergency?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
31. Where can we find the passage?
A. A visit poster. B. A rent ad.

The expression “mayday” is often heard in English movies. What does the expression mean and when should people use it?
“Mayday” is an emergency (紧急) code word. It is used around the world in voice communication. You might see a war movie in which an airplane is hit. The pilot turns on his radio and calls “mayday, mayday, mayday” to tell that his plane is in danger of crashing to the ground.
“Mayday” has nothing to do with the month of May. It comes from a French expression which means “help me”.
Mockford created “mayday” in the 1920s. Mockford was a radio officer at Croydon Airport in London. He was asked to think up a word that could be used in an emergency. The word had to be easily understood by all pilots and airport workers. Much of the air traffic at that time was between Croydon Airport and Le Bourget Airport near Paris. And the expression “mayday” he created sounded like a French word which meant “help me”. So the word “mayday” finally came into use.
Today, many groups use the word to mean a life-treating emergency. The call is always given three times to prevent mistaking it for some similar sounding words.
Many other French words are commonly used in English. Do you know any other word and its story?

A. All the people in the world. B. All the people in the plane.

30. How many times is the word “mayday” always given when there is an emergency?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
31. Where can we find the passage?
A. A visit poster. B. A rent ad.

【答案】27. A 28. B 29. D 30. B 31. D
