How to Get the Best Hotel Deal
Taking the entire family on vacation can add up quickly—flights rental car gas meals snacks and of course hotels However by doing some research and using three__little__words__you could end up saving a lot of money on accommodations
First search hotel booking sites like TripAdvisor or Expedia and check out the hotel rates in your location for the dates you would like to book Take down all the prices you find online for that hotel But even if you find a steal of a deal or a special discount don't press the book button on the website just yet
After researching prices online experts say the best way to get the lowest hotel rate is to call the hotel directly—not any of the customer service or 1—800 numbers that could be listed as a contact number especially for a chain hotel Then you're going to drop some magic words While you might be tempted to ask for the best deal or the lowest rate your secret weapon here is to use the phrase cheapest nonrefundable rate According to experts at Travel＋Leisure that phrase triggers hotel staff to search for the room that will cost you the least for your vacation
If you do end up trying to negotiate a better price mention the numbers you found online and then reduce those prices by 20 percent Apparently hotels pay a hefty fee to be listed on hotel booking sites and that 20 percent could actually mean more money than they would get if you booked through one of them
Just don't wait until the last minute to score a deal because that can lead to paying more not less Fred Lalonde founder of the travel service Hopper told Travel＋Leisure that the best deals on hotels are usually available two to three months ahead of the vacation date potentially saving you more than 270 for an eight－day stay
( )56 What does the underlined part three little words in Paragraph 1 refer to
A A special discount B The best deal
C The lowest rate D Cheapest nonrefundable rate
( )57 According to the passage the preferred way to get the best hotel deal is to ________
A call the target hotels to bargain with the staff
B collect and compare the prices found online
C book hotels just before your departure time
D turn to hotel booking sites for a discount
B
There is a 1930s－old restaurant in my hometown that has done little to update itself over the past 80 years This is part of its charm as is the wooden phone booth that sits neglected in the age of the cellphone
Ah the phone booth We need it now more than ever
For me it symbolizes that phone calls were once private affairs even if the information being shared was not sensitive in any way It was simply assumed that a phone conversation was meant for two people and two people only In public places this meant turning to the phone booth—a private chamber where one could converse in peace without being overheard
Even at home phone calls used to be regarded as private Growing up in the 1960s we had one phone in the house—fixed to the kitchen wall
As a kid I didn't get or make many calls I do however remember answering the phone asking for the identity of the caller and then handing the phone to my mom She'd take it say Hello Mrs Flaubert and then one moment please as she placed her hand over the receiver turned to me and directed This is for me Why don't you go outside and play
？
Flash－forward to what cellphones have done to this idyll Within the space of very few years private conversations have become public declaration and being overheard seems to be the point A large part of the problem of course is that we now carry our phones with us and the reflex(反射) to answer the device as soon as it rings is a response Pavlov would have appreciated
But the information is revealed Not long ago I was sitting in Boston's South Station waiting for my train After purchasing a sandwich I sat down at a table near a man who was on his cellphone
Let me paraphrase what the man had to say：Yes that's right The red and yellow roses That will be a Visa Then he proceeded to recite his card number and expiration date before signing off
I stared unbelievably at the fellow He glanced at me and askedWhat？
My response was immediate I recited his card number back to him along with the expiration date
There is no more privacy no longer a sense of personal borders or limits and the cellphone has become a loudspeaker
To return to phone booths Why did they disappear And should you think a phone booth has no value today I saw one on eBay going for 4750
( )58 Why do private conversations turn into public declaration according to the passage
A Phone booths have died out in modern life
B People lack a sense of personal borders or limits
C The content of phone calls is not that sensitive
D It is convenient for people to reach for cellphones
( )59 By describing what happened in Boston's South Station the author indicates that ________．
A it's ridiculous to answer cellphones in public places
B it's impolite to overhear others answering cellphones
C it's necessary to keep a safe distance from others when answering phones
D it's inappropriate to touch on personal information in cellphone conversations
( )60 What can we conclude from the passage
A Pavlov is in favor of answering cellphones instantly
B Something seemingly old－fashioned holds its charm today
C Phone booths are very popular with consumers on the Internet
D People used to lack a sense of trust and security in the 1960s
C
One day in 1995 a large heavy middle－aged man robbed two Pittsburgh banks in broad daylight He didn't wear a mask and he smiled at surveillance cameras before walking out of each bank Later that night police arrested a surprised McArthur Wheeler When they showed him the surveillance tapes Wheeler stared in disbelief But I wore the juice he mumbled Apparently Wheeler thought that rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make him invisible to videotape cameras After all lemon juice is used as invisible ink so as long as he didn't come near a heat source he should have been completely invisible
The case caught the eye of the psychologist David Dunning at Cornell University who enlisted his graduate student Justin Kruger to see what was going on They reasoned that while

Looking at Rosa Ferrigno's new suityou could swear it was knitted (织)with regular yam(毛线)It's only when you touch it and hear the characteristic rustling(
沙沙声)of plastic that you realize there's something special about it In fact the suit is made out of over 300 plastic grocery bags
Ferrigno who once worked as a tailor before starting a family got the idea for her unique handmade suit last August She was at a family picnic and saw one of the other guests carrying a purse made from repurposed plastic bags It attracted her so she and her daughter searched for instructions on how to make one on YouTube The 75 yearold ended up making a purse from colorful plastic bags But that was only the beginning After finishing her second plastic bag purseFerrigno realized she needed something to match it withso last November she told her daughter she was going to make a skirt and jacket suit out of plastic bagsas a winter project
Rosa started by cutting up the plastic bags into strips(条)and then tying them together to make longer yam like strips that could be knitted But to knit the plastic yam she needed large needles that didn’ t exist on the market so she made them on her own
The suit took Rosa two months to complete The jacket was made out of 170 plastic bags and the skirt required another 140 Although she didn’ t even use a pattern when knitting the impressive suit it ended up fitting her perfectly and when she finally showed it off at the supermarket earlier this month everyone went crazy
We love it when our customers reuse or recycle grocery bags but never have we seen a work of art like Rosa 's It's really fantastic Jo Natale the supermarket chain 's vice president of media relations said

C Its being knitted by an old lady D Its being able to sing when touched

Spending time in nature improves children 's academic achievement and healthy development concludes a new analysis examining hundreds of studies
Ming Kuo a professor in the Department of Natural Resources (资源)and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois says she expected the important review to lead to more questions than answers Instead all signs pointed to the same outcome ： It 's time to take nature seriously as a resource for learning she says In fact the trend of increasing indoor instruction in hopes of maximizing standardized test performance may be doing more harm than good Kuo and her colleagues found that nature boosts learning in many waysit helps focus attention relieve stress increase physical activity and fitness as well as student selfmotivation and enjoyment etc Besides nature creates a calmer quieter and safer setting for learning
While none of these effects is entirely new the analysis has pulled for the first time all of the lines of evidence together Collectivelythe findings make a much stronger case for the importance of time in nature They also provide an explanation for something that has been puzzling scientists—why even small doses of nature sometimes have surprisingly great effects
These effects extend beyond academic achievement Time in nature appears to develop personal skills and qualities important for future success and may play an important role in helping children grow up to be environmental stewards The analysis will surely make schools think about how to better plan their schoolyards and curricula
Even small exposures to nature are beneficial If you're indoorshaving a view of your yard as opposed to facing the wall that makes a difference That’s one of the things that give us more confidence that we' re seeing a real causeandeffect relationship Kuo says The bigger the dose of nature we give a person the bigger the effect we see in them
28 The underlined word boosts in paragraph 3 most probably means
Apromotes B makes interesting
Csimplifies D makesworthwhile
29 What does the text say about the analysis examining hundreds of studies
AIts finding is completely new BIt remains a puzzle to scientists
CIts outcome is quite convincingDIt results in more questions than answers
30 What inspiration can schools draw from the analysis
A They should raise their students' environmental awareness
B They should make all their curricula closely related to nature
C They should move all their students out of the classrooms
D They should green their schoolyards as much as possible
31 Which of the following reflects Kuo’s opinion
A Indoor instruction should be stressed to improve test performance
B Nature has long been taken seriously as a learning resource
C Small exposures to nature make almost no difference
D When it comes to time in nature more is better
D
Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it researchers at The University of Texas discovered Their findings suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience more attention should be focused on it
Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will but how our brains do that is still being questioned Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and come up with ways to control this we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories said Jarrod LewisPeacock the study * s senior author
Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated adjusted and reorganized through experience The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information—and much of this happens automatically during sleep
Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget but that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember
A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism Too strong it will strengthen the memory too weak you wont change it said Tracy Wang lead author of the study Importantlyit’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory and when this activation hits the proper level sweet spot thats when it leads to later forgetting of that experience
The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces Were learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget said LewisPeacock Hopefully we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong memories which can have a powerful effect on our health and wellbeing
32What remains a puzzle to researchers
A How our memories can be strengthened
B How our brains voluntarily forget something
C What effect unwanted memories have on our brains
D Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something
33 Which of the following words can best describe memories
ACasual B Stable C Active D Permanent
34 It can be learned from the text that
A it requires less attention to forget than to remember
B the more active the brain is the faster it forgets
C humans cant keep memories under control
D humans forget faces less easily than scenes
35 What can be a suitable title for the text
A What It Takes to Forget an Unwanted Experience
B Strong Memories Have a Great Influence on Health
C Forgetting Uses More Brain Power than Remembering
D How to Train Our Brains to Voluntarily Forget Something

As I stood at the base of the mountain range beside a remote African villagethe male villagers all repeated the same question ： Are you certain you want to climb the mountain

How to Get the Best Hotel Deal
Taking the entire family on vacation can add up quickly—flights rental car gas meals snacks and of course hotels However by doing some research and using three__little__words__you could end up saving a lot of money on accommodations
First search hotel booking sites like TripAdvisor or Expedia and check out the hotel rates in your location for the dates you would like to book Take down all the prices you find online for that hotel But even if you find a steal of a deal or a special discount don't press the book button on the website just yet
After researching prices online experts say the best way to get the lowest hotel rate is to call the hotel directly—not any of the customer service or 1—800 numbers that could be listed as a contact number especially for a chain hotel Then you're going to drop some magic words While you might be tempted to ask for the best deal or the lowest rate your secret weapon here is to use the phrase cheapest nonrefundable rate According to experts at Travel＋Leisure that phrase triggers hotel staff to search for the room that will cost you the least for your vacation
If you do end up trying to negotiate a better price mention the numbers you found online and then reduce those prices by 20 percent Apparently hotels pay a hefty fee to be listed on hotel booking sites and that 20 percent could actually mean more money than they would get if you booked through one of them
Just don't wait until the last minute to score a deal because that can lead to paying more not less Fred Lalonde founder of the travel service Hopper told Travel＋Leisure that the best deals on hotels are usually available two to three months ahead of the vacation date potentially saving you more than 270 for an eight－day stay
( )56 What does the underlined part three little words in Paragraph 1 refer to
A A special discount B The best deal
C The lowest rate D Cheapest nonrefundable rate
( )57 According to the passage the preferred way to get the best hotel deal is to ________
A call the target hotels to bargain with the staff
B collect and compare the prices found online
C book hotels just before your departure time
D turn to hotel booking sites for a discount
B
There is a 1930s－old restaurant in my hometown that has done little to update itself over the past 80 years This is part of its charm as is the wooden phone booth that sits neglected in the age of the cellphone
Ah the phone booth We need it now more than ever
For me it symbolizes that phone calls were once private affairs even if the information being shared was not sensitive in any way It was simply assumed that a phone conversation was meant for two people and two people only In public places this meant turning to the phone booth—a private chamber where one could converse in peace without being overheard
Even at home phone calls used to be regarded as private Growing up in the 1960s we had one phone in the house—fixed to the kitchen wall
As a kid I didn't get or make many calls I do however remember answering the phone asking for the identity of the caller and then handing the phone to my mom She'd take it say Hello Mrs Flaubert and then one moment please as she placed her hand over the receiver turned to me and directed This is for me Why don't you go outside and play
？
Flash－forward to what cellphones have done to this idyll Within the space of very few years private conversations have become public declaration and being overheard seems to be the point A large part of the problem of course is that we now carry our phones with us and the reflex(反射) to answer the device as soon as it rings is a response Pavlov would have appreciated
But the information is revealed Not long ago I was sitting in Boston's South Station waiting for my train After purchasing a sandwich I sat down at a table near a man who was on his cellphone
Let me paraphrase what the man had to say：Yes that's right The red and yellow roses That will be a Visa Then he proceeded to recite his card number and expiration date before signing off
I stared unbelievably at the fellow He glanced at me and askedWhat？
My response was immediate I recited his card number back to him along with the expiration date
There is no more privacy no longer a sense of personal borders or limits and the cellphone has become a loudspeaker
To return to phone booths Why did they disappear And should you think a phone booth has no value today I saw one on eBay going for 4750
( )58 Why do private conversations turn into public declaration according to the passage
A Phone booths have died out in modern life
B People lack a sense of personal borders or limits
C The content of phone calls is not that sensitive
D It is convenient for people to reach for cellphones
( )59 By describing what happened in Boston's South Station the author indicates that ________．
A it's ridiculous to answer cellphones in public places
B it's impolite to overhear others answering cellphones
C it's necessary to keep a safe distance from others when answering phones
D it's inappropriate to touch on personal information in cellphone conversations
( )60 What can we conclude from the passage
A Pavlov is in favor of answering cellphones instantly
B Something seemingly old－fashioned holds its charm today
C Phone booths are very popular with consumers on the Internet
D People used to lack a sense of trust and security in the 1960s
C
One day in 1995 a large heavy middle－aged man robbed two Pittsburgh banks in broad daylight He didn't wear a mask and he smiled at surveillance cameras before walking out of each bank Later that night police arrested a surprised McArthur Wheeler When they showed him the surveillance tapes Wheeler stared in disbelief But I wore the juice he mumbled Apparently Wheeler thought that rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make him invisible to videotape cameras After all lemon juice is used as invisible ink so as long as he didn't come near a heat source he should have been completely invisible
The case caught the eye of the psychologist David Dunning at Cornell University who enlisted his graduate student Justin Kruger to see what was going on They reasoned that while

Looking at Rosa Ferrigno's new suityou could swear it was knitted (织)with regular yam(毛线)It's only when you touch it and hear the characteristic rustling(
沙沙声)of plastic that you realize there's something special about it In fact the suit is made out of over 300 plastic grocery bags
Ferrigno who once worked as a tailor before starting a family got the idea for her unique handmade suit last August She was at a family picnic and saw one of the other guests carrying a purse made from repurposed plastic bags It attracted her so she and her daughter searched for instructions on how to make one on YouTube The 75 yearold ended up making a purse from colorful plastic bags But that was only the beginning After finishing her second plastic bag purseFerrigno realized she needed something to match it withso last November she told her daughter she was going to make a skirt and jacket suit out of plastic bagsas a winter project
Rosa started by cutting up the plastic bags into strips(条)and then tying them together to make longer yam like strips that could be knitted But to knit the plastic yam she needed large needles that didn’ t exist on the market so she made them on her own
The suit took Rosa two months to complete The jacket was made out of 170 plastic bags and the skirt required another 140 Although she didn’ t even use a pattern when knitting the impressive suit it ended up fitting her perfectly and when she finally showed it off at the supermarket earlier this month everyone went crazy
We love it when our customers reuse or recycle grocery bags but never have we seen a work of art like Rosa 's It's really fantastic Jo Natale the supermarket chain 's vice president of media relations said

C Its being knitted by an old lady D Its being able to sing when touched

Spending time in nature improves children 's academic achievement and healthy development concludes a new analysis examining hundreds of studies
Ming Kuo a professor in the Department of Natural Resources (资源)and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois says she expected the important review to lead to more questions than answers Instead all signs pointed to the same outcome ： It 's time to take nature seriously as a resource for learning she says In fact the trend of increasing indoor instruction in hopes of maximizing standardized test performance may be doing more harm than good Kuo and her colleagues found that nature boosts learning in many waysit helps focus attention relieve stress increase physical activity and fitness as well as student selfmotivation and enjoyment etc Besides nature creates a calmer quieter and safer setting for learning
While none of these effects is entirely new the analysis has pulled for the first time all of the lines of evidence together Collectivelythe findings make a much stronger case for the importance of time in nature They also provide an explanation for something that has been puzzling scientists—why even small doses of nature sometimes have surprisingly great effects
These effects extend beyond academic achievement Time in nature appears to develop personal skills and qualities important for future success and may play an important role in helping children grow up to be environmental stewards The analysis will surely make schools think about how to better plan their schoolyards and curricula
Even small exposures to nature are beneficial If you're indoorshaving a view of your yard as opposed to facing the wall that makes a difference That’s one of the things that give us more confidence that we' re seeing a real causeandeffect relationship Kuo says The bigger the dose of nature we give a person the bigger the effect we see in them
28 The underlined word boosts in paragraph 3 most probably means
Apromotes B makes interesting
Csimplifies D makesworthwhile
29 What does the text say about the analysis examining hundreds of studies
AIts finding is completely new BIt remains a puzzle to scientists
CIts outcome is quite convincingDIt results in more questions than answers
30 What inspiration can schools draw from the analysis
A They should raise their students' environmental awareness
B They should make all their curricula closely related to nature
C They should move all their students out of the classrooms
D They should green their schoolyards as much as possible
31 Which of the following reflects Kuo’s opinion
A Indoor instruction should be stressed to improve test performance
B Nature has long been taken seriously as a learning resource
C Small exposures to nature make almost no difference
D When it comes to time in nature more is better
D
Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it researchers at The University of Texas discovered Their findings suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience more attention should be focused on it
Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will but how our brains do that is still being questioned Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and come up with ways to control this we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories said Jarrod LewisPeacock the study * s senior author
Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated adjusted and reorganized through experience The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information—and much of this happens automatically during sleep
Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget but that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember
A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism Too strong it will strengthen the memory too weak you wont change it said Tracy Wang lead author of the study Importantlyit’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory and when this activation hits the proper level sweet spot thats when it leads to later forgetting of that experience
The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces Were learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget said LewisPeacock Hopefully we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong memories which can have a powerful effect on our health and wellbeing
32What remains a puzzle to researchers
A How our memories can be strengthened
B How our brains voluntarily forget something
C What effect unwanted memories have on our brains
D Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something
33 Which of the following words can best describe memories
ACasual B Stable C Active D Permanent
34 It can be learned from the text that
A it requires less attention to forget than to remember
B the more active the brain is the faster it forgets
C humans cant keep memories under control
D humans forget faces less easily than scenes
35 What can be a suitable title for the text
A What It Takes to Forget an Unwanted Experience
B Strong Memories Have a Great Influence on Health
C Forgetting Uses More Brain Power than Remembering
D How to Train Our Brains to Voluntarily Forget Something
