Before a new type of airplane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.
The first is called the " tank(贮水池) test". A modem airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure (结构)of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin of the plane inside. The pressure (压力) on a small window is like a huge foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane would explode (爆炸)in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, the plane is lowered into a huge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. The pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.
The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flights in the air. The pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines (发动机) are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot’s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again. These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.

|
A．the amount of air in the plane |

|

B．The pilot may lose control of the plane. |

People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 21 problem. They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 22 ；they try to find a solution by trial and error. 23 .，when all of these methods 24 ，the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 25 in analyzing a problem.
26 the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam's bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.
Next the person must 27 the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must determine the parts that are wrong.
Now the person must look for 28 that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For example, suppose Sam 29 that his bike does not work because there is some thing wrong with the brakes(刹车). 30 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 31 his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.

Finally the solution is tested .Sam finds that his bicycle 40 perfectly. In short he has solved the problem.
