A
A few things to consider before booking a flight
With fuel costs rising and airlines finding more fees to impose on travelers every day, airfare isn’t getting any cheaper. Since you can’t drive to all your dream destinations, flying is the only way to go sometimes and, undeniably, the fastest. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to find the most affordable fares and also avoid paying as many extra charges as possible when you plan ahead.
Getting the best fare
Airlines put out their fare sales on Tuesday morning, making this day the best day

to book a flight for less.
Fly during the least popular times
Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday are the slowest days to fly, which means cheaper deals than the rest of the week. You can also find reduced rates on early morning flights, since many people don’t like to get up before the sun to get to the airport. Earlier boarding times can also considerably cut down your chances of getting bumped（取消已
预定的飞机座位）on an overbooked flight or delayed because of other delayed flights or
mechanical issues.
Choose your seat later
Some airlines charge you to pick your seat when you book online, adding even more to the bottom line of your ticket cost. If you show up early on your travel day, you can still get suitable seats. Some of the best seats get held back until flight day, unless others are willing to pay extra for them ahead of time, so you still have the chance at one of those.
Fly on holidays
You already know that summer is the most expensive time to fly, and even though most other times are more affordable, the days surrounding holidays can be crazy. Save big if you’re willing to travel on major holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Don’t wait until the last-minute to book
Many travelers don’t know that there’s a sweet spot for booking and getting the best price on your tickets. Book too early or too late and you could end up paying more than you need to. The best time to book is between three months and six weeks from when you want to travel.
Avoiding extra fees
Airlines will charge for just about anything these days. Some have even toyed around with charging customers for using the restroom. All those extra fees can certainly add up, but there’s no reason to pay them if you don’t have to. Here are some tips to keep money in your wallet once you get to the airport.

Avoid the upgrade it's not necessary
Sometimes upgrades are free, but mostly you will be charged for seeking a last-minute bump to first class, and the cost can be large.
Fly carry-on only
Baggage fees vary wildly, but almost all airlines charge them and charge big. Why pay for your clothes to fly with you? If everyone in your travel party checks a bag, your bill can be astronomical before you ever even get to your destination. It’s easy to reduce the amount of stuff you pack: Make sure all your clothing coordinates, so you can take less and still make more outfit combinations, take only two pair of shoes, plan to do a bit of laundry on your trip and bring only travel-sized toiletries.
Pack your own snacks
Unless you’re flying internationally, it’s rare your flight comes with a free meal. Snacks on the plane are not cheap and almost never healthy. Don’t rely on what’s on the small menu and instead tuck some of your own snacks – granola bars, homemade muffins, fruit and trail mix all make fantastic travel foods – into your bag and eat a lot better, and cheaper, than other passengers.
Do you have a tried and true method of getting the best deal on your flights? Let us know.

A. Early morning flights
B. Early boarding times
C. The flights on Saturday
D. The flights on Summer holiday
32. According to the passage, which one is right?
A. If you show up early on your travel day, you can get the best seats.
B. You can save big if you’re willing to travel on Christmas eve.

D. If you’re flying internationally, your flight will come with a free meal.

33. According to the passage, you can do the things except to avoid extra fees.

B. eat your own snacks heartily
C. fly with carry-on
D. give up the upgrade

Many years ago，I went on a trip to Washington，D．C．Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center，I heard a voice say，"Can you help me？"When I turned around，I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended．I reached into my pocket，pulled out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her．I was annoyed at being bothered (打扰) by a beggar．But the blind woman smiled and said，"I don't want your money．I just need help finding the post office．"
All of a sudden，I realized what I had done．I judged another person simply for what I thought she had to be．I hated what I saw in myself．This incident reminded me of my belief in humility (谦恭)，even though I'd lost it for a moment．
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in the U．S．at the age of 15．
In my own life，I have experienced many open acts of prejudice (偏见)．But now，
living in my American middle-class lifestyle，it is too easy to forget my past，to forget who I am and where I have been，and to lose sight of where I want to be going．That blind woman on the streets of Washington，D．C．，cured me of my blindness．She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open．By the way，I helped that lady to the post office．And in writing this passage，I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson．

The traditional news media in America has been having a rough time in the last few years. According to a recent survey, more Americans have a negative (43%) than a positive (33%) view of the news media, and are finding it harder to be well informed because it is getting harder to determine which news is accurate.
The problem is preference. While ideally the media should be objective and hold power to account, in reality we know that most news outlets belong to a certain party and have their own agenda to advance. Whether state-owned or run by some shady tax-avoiding billionaire, getting “the masses” to view the world from a certain perspective has always been a priceless power to wield.
So why is trust in the media so low? Well, according to the same survey, 8 out of 10 Americans believe that the news media are critical to their democracy. The gap between these noble expectations of an honest, objective media and the performance that they actually deliver is large. Times when the mask slips and examples of media manipulation
（操纵）are exposed are hugely damaging to trust, and people naturally turn to social

media for others, even-easier-to-manipulate sources. Thus we are in the current state in which we find ourselves: confused and mistrustful.
People have been posting examples of how media can use different techniques of deception, to trick you into seeing exactly what they wanted you to see. As you will discover, perspective really is everything! It will goes to show that a healthy dose of skepticism goes a long way, and getting your news from a wide rang of different sources is your best bet to a more rounded view of the world we live in. Social media is good in that respect, but bad in terms of regulation, trolling and people shouting horrible things at each other. The good old traditional news media really is needed as a forum for reasonable debate and expert opinion, but they gotta stop with the manipulation already!
38. What does para2 want to convey?
A. People have prejudice for media
B. The media can take control of the party
C. The media have acted as a tool to mask the truth
D. The media have a priceless power
39. What’s your understanding of the sentence “As you will discover, perspective really is everything!”?
A. People should not have faith in what the media says because some news are not

true.


B. People should not be too curious about things around
C. People should refer to social media rather than traditional media if wanting to know the truth of news.
D. The spirit of suspect and diverse sources are good ways to help people recognize the truth of the world.

40. What’ s the structure of the passage?
A. ①→②③→④ B. ①→②③④
C. ①②③→④ D. ①②→③→④
41. What’ the best title for the passage?

A. Where’s trust in the media.
B. Why people’s trust in the media falls.
C. How people treat trust in the media.
D. What’ s trust in the media
D
Here’s an idea whose time has come: A flu shot that doesn’t require an actual shot.
For the first time, researchers have tested a flu vaccine patch (疫苗贴) in a human clinical trial and found that it delivered as much protection as a traditional injection with a needle. Doctors and public health experts have high hopes that it will increase the number of people who get immunized (免疫的) against the flu.
Seasonal flu is responsible for up to half a million deaths around the world each
year according to the World Health Organization. A team led by Georgia Tech engineer Mark Prausnitz has come up with an alternative method that uses “microneedles”. These tiny needles are so small that 100 of them, arranged in order on a patch, can fit under your thumb (拇指). Yet they’re big enough to hold vaccine for three types of flu.
None of the study volunteers had serious side effects. The groups that got patches
had mild skin reactions that were not seen in the regular needle group, while the volunteers in the regular needle group were more likely to experience pain. Overall, 70 percent of the volunteers who got vaccine patches said they’d rather use them again than get a traditional flu shot. The study authors declared it a success on all fronts.
The biggest beneficiaries could be people in low-and-middle—income countries, where flu vaccines are hard to come by. Reducing pain is nice, but other benefits-the patch costs less, is easier to transport, doesn’t require refrigeration, can be self-administered and doesn’t cause waste of needles — are even better.
“Microneedle Patches have the potential to become ideal candidates for vaccination programs,” wrote Katja Hoschler and Maria Zambon of Public Health England.
42. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A vaccine patch that cures people of their flu.

B. A clinical study that protects people from disease.
C. A patch that makes flu shots a thing of the past.
D. A method that makes traditional flu shots painless.
43. What do we know about the vaccine patch?
A. It is produced by the WHO.
B. It causes slight side effects.
C. It delivers vaccine to the little finger.
D. It works badly on 30% of the volunteers.
44. The new patch has all the following benefits except that .
A. it is provided free of charge
B. it can be used without a doctor
C. it can be kept at room temperature
D. it needs less care in transportation
45. What is Katja and Maria’s attitude towards the new shot?
A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Ambiguous. D. Disapproving.

The beauty of confidence is that it is possible to learn it, no matter who you are!
Follow these simple steps to be confident.
Consider your strengths and success. 46 When did you help others? What are you good at? When have you taken pride in yourselves? What are you working hard for? If you have difficulty thinking of your strengths and success, ask your family member or a close friend.
Have goals. Sitting around and doing nothing will make you feel worse. Start with a small goal. 47 You’ll get more confidence achieving a small goal. Once you’ve achieved many smaller goals, you can set bigger goals.
48 Failure is the mother of success. When you fail, view it as a learning

experience. Often we have to fail on our own to gain experience. By failing, you have at least taken a chance.
Pick a role model. Pick a role model that is always confident and always learn from them. Study their action, their manners of speaking and how they communicate with others. 49 However, it’s a great place to start.
Smile. Confident people smile often, and without much reason. 50 It tells the people around you that you’re comfortable in yourself and enjoying your time.
A. Of course you don’t want to spend your entire life copying some
