The Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, the government agency that regulates civil aviation in the United States, announced new rules this month to combat pilot fatigue. The new guidelines, which will go into effect in two years, call for reducing the number of pilots’ on-duty hours and giving them a 10-hour rest period between shifts, so they can get at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. The new rules apply to only pilots of passenger airlines. FAA determined that including pilots who fly cargo planes—a large segment of the aviation industry—would add too much to the cost of implementing the changes. But the Independent Pilots Association (IPA) has filed a lawsuit asking the government to set one level of safety for all pilots.
3. What is the main purpose of the new rules?
4. Why was IPA unhappy about the new rules?
选项
A、They had failed to cover all the pilots.
B、They had only covered cargo plane pilots.
C、They would be put into effect in two years.
D、They would be too costly if implemented.
答案
A
解析
录音最后提到,独立飞行员协会(IPA)要求政府对所有飞行员设定统一的安全标准,可见协会不满的原因是A“新规定不能覆盖到所有的飞行员”。B错在cargo,新规定只用于客机飞行员。C“计划两年后实施”是提到的事实,但不是协会不满的原因。录音提到如果把货机飞行员也包括进来,实施规定的花费就会太大,但这不是协会不满的原因,排除D。
