The holiday season isn’t about shopping and gifts. 【1】 However, holiday travel can be more expensive than gifts. Fortunately, the following tips will help keep your travel spending under control.

Plan ahead. The earlier you book your travel, from airfare to hotels, the easier it is to find good deals. 2 Your best prices on airfare come when you book three weeks before the plane leaves for domestic(國(guó)內(nèi)的) flights. For international flights, consider booking 30 days in advance. Many experts point out that you should book travel between one month and three months out for high-traffic holidays.

Book your air travel on cheaper days. Traveling by air on Tuesdays and Wednesdays often costs less than on Fridays and Sundays. During the holidays, it’s not just about a specific day of the week. You also need to consider the days surrounding the holiday but days immediately before and after a holiday can be expensive. One of the best ways to save is to plan your air travel on the day of the holiday. 3

Consider traveling overnight. Red-eye flights and overnight flights often cost less than those at more convenient times. 4 Traveling overnight can help you avoid a night in the hotel, as well as save your money on travel to your destination.

5 You can’t bring liquids with you on the airline, but you can bring sandwiches and other snacks. When you’re on the road, you can buy food at local groceries to make your own meals, especially if you have access to(可使用) a microwave.

A. Bring your own food.

B. Consider affordable accommodations.

C. Traveling by plane is not the best choice.

D. Plus, booking earlier can save your money.

E. For instance, traveling on Christmas Day might be a great deal.

F. A great deal of travel also takes place during this time of year.

G. Other choices include sleeper trains as well as overnight ferries.

【答案】

【2】D

【3】E

【4】G

【5】A

【解析】

試題分析:本文介紹了一些節(jié)省旅行費(fèi)用的技巧。

【1】F 根據(jù)上句:這個(gè)假日季不是購(gòu)物和送禮物的日子。再根據(jù)下句:然而,假日旅行比禮物更昂貴。故F項(xiàng)在每年的這個(gè)時(shí)候也有大量的旅行。連接上下文。

【2】D 根據(jù)上句:你越早預(yù)訂您的旅行,從機(jī)票到酒店,就越容易找到好的交易。以及下句:國(guó)內(nèi)航線的機(jī)票最好的價(jià)格來自于飛機(jī)起飛前三個(gè)星期前預(yù)定。故D項(xiàng)另外,提前預(yù)定可以節(jié)省你的錢。連接上下文。

【3】E 根據(jù)上句:節(jié)約的最好的方法之一就是在假日那一天計(jì)劃你的空中旅行。下面是舉例說明。E項(xiàng)比如,在圣誕節(jié)旅行可能是一個(gè)很劃算的交易。符合語境,故選E。

【4】G 根據(jù)上句:長(zhǎng)途夜航航班和夜間航班往往比那些在方便時(shí)間的航班花費(fèi)更少?崭裣戮洌郝眯羞^夜可以幫助你避免在酒店過夜,同時(shí)也節(jié)約票費(fèi)?芍G項(xiàng)其他選擇包括臥鋪列車以及通宵渡輪。符合語境,故選G。

【5】A 此處是一個(gè)小標(biāo)題。根據(jù)下文:在飛機(jī)上你不能隨身攜帶液體,但是你能帶三明治和一些甜食。在公路上你可以在當(dāng)?shù)氐碾s貨店買一些吃的東西。故A項(xiàng)帶上你自己的食物。符合本段內(nèi)容。

【題目】It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words, “a wonderfully written book ”. however, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all .I felt that I was talking to a book liar.

And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t .In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty(愧疚的) Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out ),I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten .But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one ,George Orwell’s 1984.I think it’s really brilliant.

The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either )and Herman Melville.

Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in –depth!

But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J.k. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella(ah, the big sellers, in other words).Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I’ll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).

【1】How did the author think of Dreams From My Father?

A. It was his favorite.

B. It made little sense.

C . He was very fond of it.

D. He totally had no idea.

【2】What can we learn from “Report on Guilty Secrets”?

A. 58% of people haven’t read 1984.

B. All of the listed authors are unknown.

C. Many people have ever lied about reading.

D. Dreams From My Father isn’t among the top ten.

【3】Why do people probably lie about reading?

A. To admire the writer.

B. To advertise the book.

C. To start a conversation.

D. To leave a good impression.

【4】What’s the tone (語氣) of the author in the article?

A. Very friendly.

B. A little humorous.

C. Rather confusing

D. Quite cautious.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。A strong memory depends on the health and vitality (活力) of your brain. They say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but when it comes to the brain, scientists have discovered that this old saying simply isn’t true. 1Give your brain a workout. Memory, like muscular strength, requires you to “use it or lose it”. The more you work out your brain, the better you’ll be able to process and remember information. 2Don’t skip the physical exercise. While mental exercise is important for brain health, that doesn’t mean you never need to break a sweat. Physical exercise helps your brain stay sharp. It increases oxygen to your brain and reduces the risk for disorders that lead to memory loss.Get enough sleep. There is a big difference between the amount of sleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best. 3Keep stress in check. Stress is one of the brain’s worst enemies. Over time, stress destroys brain cells. Studies have also linked stress to memory loss.Have a laugh. 4That holds true for the brain and the memory, as well as the body. Unlike emotional responses, which are limited to specific areas of the brain, laughter engages multiple regions across the whole brain.5Just as the body needs fuel, so does the brain. You probably already know that a diet based on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, “healthy” fats and lean protein will provide lots of health benefits, but such a diet can also improve memory. For brain health, though, it’s not just what you eat—it’s also what you don’t eat.

A. Eat a brain-boosting diet.

B. Play games with memory.

C. Laughter is the best medicine.

D. But oversleeping is not good for your brain.

E. Even skipping a few hours makes a difference!

F. You have to shake things up from time to time!

G. The human brain has an astonishing ability to adapt and change.
