A
Knowing what to do at checkout and properly preparing for it can turn a potentially heated
situation into a quick thank you add goodbye. Below we made a list of five things you should
remember at hotel checkout.
Don't be late to check
Hotels may add an extremely high price for being just a half hour late. If you know you won't
make the cutoff time, it never hurts to call ahead and try to negotiate away a potential charge.
Don't forget to double cheek the room and safe
Make sure you don't leave things behind. If you have an early flight or checkout time, pack up
as much as you can the night before so that last-minute rush isn't too annoying. Also, be sure to
take out anything in the room safe.
Don't forget to tip the housekeepers
It's always polite to leave some money for the people keeping your room clean.
Don't ignore the detailed bill
You may be in a rush, but give the detailed hill a careful look to see if the hotel charge is
different from the rate you initially booked.
Don't get angry
Shooting at the assistant manager standing behind the front desk probably won't help.
When dealing with an unexpected item on the bill. Think about how difficult it can be to deal
with annoyed customers. Keep calm and things may be solved better and sooner.
21.The hotel will charge you more money if you .
A. check before cutoff time
B. do not call the hotel ahead
C. are late in checking out
D. negotiate with the clerks
22.Which of the following does the author suggest doing?
A. Leaving something behind.
B. Being sure to keep the room clean.
C. Doing the pack-up as early as possible.
D. Tipping the housekeepers to show respect.
23.What is the purpose of the last paragraph of the passage?
A. To suggest a way to solve problems properly.
B. To provide more information about the hotel.
C. To show the uneasiness of assistant managers.
D. To protect customers from unnecessary dangers.
B
One rainy afternoon, I was on a crosstown bus when a young woman jumped on.She had a
child with her who must have been about 3 or 4 years old.
The bus was full, bumpy, and it soon got noisy as her kid began crying because he couldn't
sit next to his mother. There were a couple of open scats. but they weren't together. She was
flustered and looked embarrassed.
Then another woman. a little older. stood up and moved so that the mother and child could be
together. The mom smiled as a thank-you, And then three words came out of the older woman's
mouth that elevated the entire energy of that bus ride: "I've been there."
Simple, undramatic and honest. In that moment, it seemed to unite people. Why?Because
almost all experiences are shared human experiences. We forget that. as we forge(前进) through
life. we focused on our own troubles and needs- which are actually less unique than we think.
How can these three words create more connection in your life? Ask yourself; "Where am I
holding back?
One thing I know for sure is this: Healing(治愈) others helps heal yourself. I noticed this
recently with my friend, Tracy. who took a new friend who had suffered a miscarriage(流产)
under her wing. Tracy had three of them before having her daughter two years ago. Our minds
need a doctor to explain the medical side of things. But our souls need human connection to help
us along. No one can do that better than someone who has been exactly where you are.
Can the essence(精髓) of these three words help you make a small difference right now? It
can be as simple as volunteering your seat. sharing some helpful advice or even lightening the
mood with a joke when you notice that someone's uncomfortable-----because we're all in this
together.
24. Which word is closest in meaning to the underlined word "flustered" in the second paragraph?
A. angry B. eager C. scared D. upset
25. What does the woman mean by saying" I've been there" in the third paragraph?
A. The woman was on the bus and saw what had happened to the boy.
B. The woman got to her destination and was ready to get off the bus.
C. The woman once had the similar experience with that mother.
D. The woman took the exact scat that the boy was on just now.
26. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Everyone has his or her own unique problem that is difficult to solve.
B. Doctors can help us get through when we have mental or physical problems.
C. The author's friend Tracy felt better after she was comforted by her new friend.
D. One can indeed make a difference to those in need of help by doing simple things.
27. The passage is intended to ________.
A. show a harmonious world by telling some touching stories
B. praise those who are willing to help others in emergencies
C. appal to readers to give timely help to those in need
D. illustrate some ways of helping others in detail
C
The world’s clocks mark every passing second, minute and hour. But to humans, seconds of
pain can feel like minutes, and hours spent at a party can end in a blink.
The brain can stretch or squeeze the feeling of time for many reasons, including pleasure,
pain, fear and age. Although the science behind this “subjective time” is not fully understood,
some research suggests that an additional factor might influence the subjective length of your life:
your income.
Research already suggests that, on average, wealthy people live longer, biologically. Now,
emerging work indicates that varied and novel experiences could create more “time codes (编码)”
in the human brain as it processes memory formation. This, in turn, could mean that people who
can afford to enjoy more vacations and hobbies, and who have more stimulating jobs, will recall
having lived for a longer time on Earth.
“Even though time flies when you’re having fun, when you look back on it, you can
remember much more of this extended experience compared to a boring experience,” says Jorgen
Sugar, a postdoctoral student at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's Kavli
Institute for Systems Neuroscience. He’s part of a team of scientists investigating these mental
time codes.
The idea that novelty can affect the experience of time also seems to fit cultures that don't
measure time using clocks — many cultures rely instead on celestial (天空的), cultural and
seasonal events to mark the flow of time. “Our experience of time does vary according to
circumstances, and also according to the kind of rhythm of activity we engage in,” says Chris
Sinha, a cognitive (认知) scientist working with Hunan University who has studied so called
“event-based time” in Amazonian tribes and linguistic minority groups in China.
But other experts aren’t convinced. According to Monica Capri, an economist with a
background in neuro-economies at Claremont Graduate University, subjective time isn’t well
understood scientifically. Even if higher-paid jobs can lead to more new experiences, wealthy
people aren’t necessarily spending money that way. A millionaire, for instance, may spend money
on a fancy watch, but this isn’t likely to change their feeling of time the way a vacation or even a
low-cost hike would, she says.
What’s more, she says, there are many factors to consider in how the brain processes time.
For instance, according to Adrian Bejan, a professor at Duke University, the novelty of fun
experiences an simply war off.
Still, researchers from many fields are eager to uncover the mysteries of memory and
subjective time. According to Sugar, understanding how humans form and recall memories can
affect many aspects of society, such as law, education and healthcare — and perhaps can even aid
our understanding of ourselves. “The human brain is the most complex biological system we
know,” he says.
28. What do we know about “subjective time” from the passage?
A. It has nothing to do with one’s income.
B. Its pace is influenced by a person’s mood.
C. It is a thing that is completely understood.
D. It marks every passing second for a person.
29. How can income influence a person according to some researchers?
A. Wealthy people tend to engage more in remembering things.
B. Wealthy people may feel life is relatively longer psychologically.
C. Wealthy people tend to have a better memory than poor people.
D. Wealthy people usually need more time to process memory formation.
30. What is Monica Capra’s opinion?
A. She is not convinced that money can extend subjective time,
B. She doesn’t believe that wealthy people can buy good memories.
C. She thinks that the excitement of fun experiences can hardly wear off.
D. She doubts whether higher-paid jobs can lead to more new experiences.
31. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Researchers are exploring the mysteries of memory.
B. Many factors can influence how you feel time.
C. Your subjective time may depend on your income.
D. The brain can change your feeling of time.
D
When asked how technology might improve the lives of people with vision impairments(视
力障碍) . Joann Becker, a vision impairments tech specialist, presented a misleadingly simple
challenge, saying “I’d like to be able to find my bus stop through Be My Eyes”.
Be My Eyes, which went live in 2015, establishes a direct video connection between visually
impaired users and sighted volunteers. The assumption is simple: Many people who are blind don't
need any actual assistance in completing their daily tasks, but merely need a little help.
A sighted volunteer might be asked to help identify which of two cans contains tomatoes. In
this case, the visually impaired user can cook a meal just fine on his/her own- -all he/she needs is a
quick confirmation that he/she has the correct can. The model appears to be working; more than
540.000 volunteers and nearly 40.000 people with low vision are registered on the app.
“An elderly woman can now help a visually impaired technician set up his computer.” says
founder Hans Wiberg, who has very low vision. “She doesn't need to know a thing about
computers. She only needs to read what is presented on the screen. Then he can do the rest. ”
Early assistive technology centered on dedicated devices(专用设备), because of the niche
market(小众市场) , which sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But the Smartphone,
multipurpose and near-universal, has completely changed the economy of scale. “There are larger
market forces driving high-powered computation, high-quality engineering and
high-quality battery management in the smartphone market than those in a specialty product.” says
Aaron Stcinfeld, a research professor at the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.
“The reality is most sighted people don't know somebody who is bind.” Becker says.” They
think the solutions that a blind person needs are far more expansive. It turns out they need to be. “I
think these apps are enabling sighted people to see that blind people just need some simple clues
to help them do any number of things in their lives.”
32. What is the first paragraph used for in the text?
A. Giving one example. B. Showing the main idea.
C. Making a conclusion. D. Introducing the topic.
33. How does the app Be My Eyes work?
A. By creating a video link between the visually disabled and sighted volunteers.
B. By recognizing which of two cans has tomatoes that can be cooked.
C. By establishing high-quality engineering and computation.
D. By flashing the everyday tasks of the technician and volunteers.
34. What can we know from the text?
A. Slight assistance can help the blind free from some troubles.
B. Volunteers should be very familiar with high-tech computers.
C. Only people with low vision are registered to use the app.
D. Joann Becker thinks it hard to find a bus stop using Be My Eyes.
35.What does the 5th paragraph mainly mean?
A. The smartphone becomes a special app.
B. Fine devices have changed the economy.
