Usually, the problems that annoy air travelers are not with the planes themselves, but with the airports. Simply put, many municipal airports were designed years ago, when air traffic was considerably less. They cannot cope with today’s heavy around-the-clock volume. Also, today’s planes are much faster and bigger than was the case years ago. Modern planes need more room to land and take off. Again, many older airports are just not able to accommodate these large planes. Because of scheduling problems and congestion, not to mention hazardous weather conditions, many flights take off late, arrive late or both. This is a particular problem in the colder states during the winter months. Heavy rain, snow, fog, or worst of all, ice and sleet, can all lead to long delays, flight cancellations, or even the closing of an entire airport. When these inevitable problems occur, there is not much the airlines can do other than house and feed travelers while they wait for their flights. However, free meals and hotel rooms rarely satisfy travelers—they just want to get where they are going when they are supposed to get there.

They performed using the rigid techniques that had been passed down through the centuries. Audiences and dancers in the United States were eager for their own, "contemporary" dance form. And, so, around 1900, dancers created one. How was this "modern" dance so different from classical ballet? Well, most notably, it was not carefully choreographed. Instead, the dance depended on the improvisation and free, personal expression of the dancers. Music and scenery were of little importance to the "modern" dance-and lightness of movement was not important either. In fact, modern dancers made no attempt at all to conceal the effort involved in a dance step. But even if improvisation appealed to audiences, many dance critics were less than enthusiastic about the performances. They questioned the artistic integrity of dancers who were not professionally trained and the artistic value of works that had no formal structure. Loie Fuller, after performing Fire Dance, was described as doing little more than turning “round and round like an eggbeater." Yet, the free, personal expression of the pioneer dancers is the basis of the "controlled freedom" of modern dance today.

But there are advantages to living in water, and they have played an important role in making fish what they are. One is that water is not subject to sudden temperature changes. Therefore, it makes an excellent habitat for a cold-blooded animal. Another advantage is the water's ability to easily support body weight. Protoplasm has approximately the same density as water, so a fish in water is almost weightless. This "weightlessness” in turn means two things: One, a fish can get along with a light weight and simple bone structure, and two, limitations to a fish’s size are practically removed. 第5頁 共8頁 語文類(一) 專業科目(一) 共 8 頁 第 6 頁 Yet there is one basic difficulty of living in water—the fact that it is incompressible. For a fish to move through water, it must actually shove it aside. Most can do this by wiggling back and forth in snakelike motion. The fish pushes water aside by the forward motion of its head, and with the curve of its body and its flexible tail. Next, the water flows back along the fish’s narrowing sides, closing in at the tail, and helping the fish propel itself forward. The fact that water is incompressible has literally shaped the development of fish. A flat and angular shape can be moved through water only with difficulty. For this reason, fish have a basic shape that is beautifully adapted to deal with this peculiarity.

34. What is the passage mainly about? (A) The importance of fish to human beings. (B) A comparison of fish to warm- blooded animals. (C) How water has shaped the development of fish. (D) The difference between saltwater and freshwater environment.
