    One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by sending newspapers door to door, was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
    However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”
    “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.
    Years later the woman became badly ill and was finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Dressed in his doctor’s clothes, Dr. Kelly went into her room and recognized her at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her, and decided to do his best to save her life.
    At last the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to the woman’s room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay for it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words:
    “Paid in full with a glass of milk, Dr. Howard Kelly.”
    Tear of joy flooded her eyes.

    D

    It is the season for long lines and frayed (紧张的) nerves. Here’s how to deal.

    Lighten up

    Do youreslf a favor and ship(运送) your presents. Nearly every U.S. airline charges a fee to check a bag, so shipping gifts is now cheaper and more convenient than carrying them in your luggage.

    Weigh your options

    Now knowing what you’re going to pay for your luggage is annoying. So calculate your overweight-luggage fees at home. You can find the fees out in advance by visiting new site Luggage Limits, which provides the latest information on more than 90 airlines.

    Leave amateurs（不熟练者） in the dust

    Trust us and get to the airport an extra half-hour early. The check-in and security lines are filled with inexperienced fliers, and it’s a hard walking. Plus, if you decide to cut it close, you may not get onto the flight at all. To reduce costs, airlines have reduced on flights and routes. The remaining flights are more likely to be oversold, especially on busy travel days. Fliers who check in early are the least likely to get bumped from oversold flights.

    Take it public

    The rates for renting a car at the airport have more than doubled over the past year because rental lot inventories(地产) have increased dramatically. True, renting at the airport is convenient, but it’s just not worth it anymore. Unless you really need a car, take public transportation, hop a cab, or beg a friend to pick you up at the airport instead.

    Say no to bumper cars

    Tell the people picking you up to avoid parking their car. They can hang out in their car for free while waiting to get a call from you when you land. Many airports, including JFK and LAX, now feature this sensible choice.

    68.Airlines have reduced flights to_________.

    A. deal with crisis                         B. reduce the time for leave

    C. lower the cost                          D. provide more job chances

    69. We can learn from the passage that____      .

    A. taking a taxi at the airport is expensive

    B. taxis stay at the airport free of charge

    C. cars can park at the airport for free

    D. JFK encourages people to take a taxi

    70. What’s the best title for the passage?

    A. 5 Ways to Survey a Holiday Flight.             B. Good Seasons for Flight

    C. Cars at the Airport                     D. How to Board a Flight

    I will never forget what my old headmaster taught me. Normally when you are only 15          years of age you do not remember most of the things that are taught by your teachers. But this particular story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I get reminded of this story.

    It was a normal Monday morning, and he was making a speech to the students on important things in life and about devoting ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story went:

    An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the subway. He would get the train right to Central London, and then sit at the street corner and beg. He would do this every single day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years. His house was dirty, and a stench(恶臭)came out of the house and it smelled horrible. The neighbors could not stand the smell any more, so they asked the police officers to clear the place. The officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of money all over the house that he had collected over the years.

    The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire. They waited outside his house to tell the good news to him. When he arrived home that evening, he was met by one of the officers who told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire. He said nothing at all; he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up as usual, went to the subway, got into the train, and sat at the street corner and continued to beg. Obviously, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything important for his life. We learn nothing from this story other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing.

    59. The headmaster told the story to the students to__________.

    A. make the students relaxed in the lesson             B. remind the students to think deeply

    C. show how poor the old man was                            D. encourage the students to become rich

    60. After hearing what the officer said, the old man_________.

    A. believed the officer was playing a joke on him. B. didn't know many people respected him a lot.

    C. was very angry to find his house broken into.     D. was not so excited as the officer had expected.

    61. What did the author learn from the story?

    A . One should devote himself to his dream.            B. The old man was foolish not to stop begging.

    C. What the headmaster taught was very important.

    D. People must have a plan before taking action.

    62. Which word can best describe the author's attitude towards the old man?

    A. Pity.           B. Disappointment.                 C. Respect.          D. Anger.

    63. We know from the passage that ___________________.

    the author had a big dream at the age of 15.         

    B. the headmaster was popular with the students.

    the old man begged every day without stopping.  

    D. the neighbors took great pity on the old man.
