Few Americans stay in one place for a lifetime. We 36 from the city to the suburbs，from high school to college in a different state, from a job in one region to a better job 37 , from the home where we 38 our children to the home where we plan to live in 39 . With each move we are 40 making new friends, who bee part of our new life. For many of us the summer is a special time for forming new 41 . Today, millions of Americans go on vocation 42 , and they go not only to see new sights but also —— in those places where they do not feel too 43 —— with the hope of meeting new people. No one really 44 a vacation trip to produce a close friend, but the beginning of a friendship is possible. Surely in every country people 45 friendship？ The word “friend” to American people can be 46 to a wide range of relationships —— to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a close business panion, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a 47 colleague. There are real 48 among these relations for Americans —— a friendship may be 49 , casual, situational or deep and lasting. But to a European, who sees only our surface behavior, the differences are not clear.As Europeans see it, all kinds of “friends” flow 50 of Americans' homes with little ceremony. They may be parents of the children's friends, house guests of neighbors, members of a mittee, business associates from another town or even another country. 51 as a guest into an American home, the European visitor finds no 52 differences. The atmosphere is 53 . Most people, old and young, are called 54 first names. Americans’ characteristic openness to different styles of relationship makes it possible for us to find new friends abroad with whom we feel 55 .36. A. drive B. mute C. move D. settle37.

A few things to consider before booking a flightWith 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 holidaysYou 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 necessarySometimes 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 onlyBaggage 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 binations, 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 snacksUnless you’re flying internationally, it’s rare your flight es 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. 56. To save money, which one should NOT be the choice? A.Early morning flights B. Early boarding times C. The flights on Saturday D. The flights on Summer holiday 57. 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. C. You will be charged for seeking the upgrades, and the cost can be high. D. If you’re flying internationally, your flight will e with a free meal.58. According to the passage, you can do the things except _____ to avoid extra fees. A. use the restroom B. eat your own snacks heartily C. fly with carry-on D. give up the upgradeBThe 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!59. What does para2 want to convey?A. People have prejudice for media B. The media can take control of the partyC. The media have acted as a tool to mask the truthD. The media have a priceless power60. 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 aroundC. 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.61. What’ s the structure of the passage?A. ①→②③→④ B. ①→②③④C. ①②③→④ D. ①②→③→④62. 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 mediaCThese young men were a different kind of prisoner from those we had seen before. They were brave, hostile and aggressive they would not take orders, and shouted “Amandla！” at every opportunity. Their instinct was to confront rather than cooperate. The authorities① did not know how to handle them, and they turned the island upside down. During the Rivonia Trial, I remarked to a security policeman that if the government did not reform itself, the freedom fighters who would take our place② would some day make the[authorities miss us. That day had indeed e on Robben Island.In these young men we saw the angry revolutionary spirit of the times. I had had some warning. On a visit with Winnie a few months before, she had managed to tell me through our coded conversation that there was a rising class of discontented youths③ who were violent and Africanist in beliefs. She said they were changing the nature of the struggle and that I should be aware of them.The new prisoners were shocked by what they considered the inhuman conditions of the island, and said that they could not understand how we could live in such a way. We told them that they should have seen the island in 1964. But they were almost as sceptical of us as they were of the authorities. They chose to ignore our calls for discipline and thought our advice weak and unassertive (不果断). It was obvious that they regarded us, the Rivonia Trialists④, as moderates⑤. After so many years of being branded a radical revolutionary, to be seen as a moderate was a novel and not altogether pleasant feeling. I knew that I could react in one of two ways: I could scold them for their disrespect or I could listen to what they were saying. I chose the latter.Then some of these men, such as Strini Moodley of the South African Students Organization and Saths Cooper of the Black People’s Convention, came into our section, _________. Shortly after their arrival on the island, the manding officer came and asked me as a favour to address the young men. He wanted me to tell them to behave themselves, to recognize the fact that they were in prison and to accept the discipline of prison life. I told him that I was not prepared to do that. Under the circumstances, they would have regarded me as a follower of the authorities. (---adapted from “Long walk to freedom: The autobiography of Nelson Mandela”)63. We may infer from the passage all of the following EXCEPT that ___________. A. an angry massive revolution was probably on its way B. these young men were willing to cooperate in face of difficulties C. many were concerned about the influence these young men could make D. the author’s activities were strictly monitored64. One sentence is missing in the blank of the passage regarding the author’s following reactions.Which of the following reactions do you think he would have? A. I tried to calm them down and talked them into behaving.B. I reported to the officers about their dissatisfaction. C. I asked them to tell us about their movement and beliefs. D. I just turned a deaf ear to the young men.65. Several phrases have been underlined and numbered in the passage; which two of themactually refer to the same people?A. ①② B. ②③ C. ③④ D. ⑤①DThe relationship between exercise and cance。
