There are two ways to save money traveling. The first way is to get the best deals on the specific things you want. There is a limitation to this type of approach (途径,方法) though. If you find the lowest price on the best hotel in Honolulu at the height of the season, you will save money, but still have a very expensive vacation. Trying to get exactly what you want will generally be an expensive proposition, in travel and in life.
The other approach is to be a true opportunist. This will be difficult for some of you, and entirely unacceptable to others. Nonetheless (尽管如此),the travelers who get to travel the most, go to the widest variety of places, learn the most and do the most, are the opportunists. This will be true until you are so wealthy that you have no monetary (货币的;钱的)limits.
The first time I went to Ecuador, I went there because it was cheap. If it wasn’t, I would have had a great time—somewhere else. The trip lasted a month, and cost $1045, which included airfare and even the $130 fee for a guide to take me to the top or glacier (冰川) covered Mount Chimborazo.
I cut the cost by taking a bus from my home in Michigan to Miami, and back again when I returned from Ecuador. The round-trip ticket cost $158. The round-trip flight to Quito from Miami was only $256, because it was a courier (信使,通讯员) flight, which meant I signed for some luggage(car parts), and could only take carry-on luggage.
Never did I feel deprived, or bored. I had a great time, eating wherever it was cheap and clean, doing all sorts of inexpensive, but interesting things, and traveling across the country to climb Chimborazo. I also met and fell in love with my wife Ana.
Being an opportunist means you’ll have just as much variety, and probably almost everything you want—eventually. You just have to stop trying to get exactly what you want exactly when you want it. If the guide that took me up Chimborazo hadn’t dropped his price from $200 to $130, I would have spent $2 for a bus and gone hiking on EI Altar, another great Andean mountain. That would have left me with enough money for several other minor adventures.
【小题1】The underlined phrase “the best deals” in the first paragraph probably refers to ______.
A.the best service | B. the lowest price |
C.the cheapest goods | D. the best approaches |
A.$128 | B. $256 | C. $207 | D. $414 |
A.save money for minor adventures |
B.cut down traveling costs. |
C.deal with different situations |
D.become opportunist travelers |
A.went hiking on El Altar |

The concept of Emotional Intelligence(EQ or EI)was first given by Peter Salovey and John Mayer.but it became widely popular after the publication of Daniel Coleman’s best seller“Emotional Intelligence”in 1995.The meaning of emotional intelligence is“Knowing how you and others feel and what to do about it.”
The control center of our emotions is a small part of oily brain called the amygdala,,which scans incoming signals from our sensory organs(eyes,ears…)and acts as the emotional alarm center of our bed.When it detects a condition that we hate,that we fear,or that could hurt us,it sends an immediate signal to the other parts of our brain that controls our actions.
The amygdala's widespread web of neural(神经系统的)connections allows it,during an emotional emergency.to take control of much of the rest of the brain including the mind.This explains why we sometimes do things “without thinking’’ like closing our eyes just before a flying insect hits our face or losing control during the course of a heated argument.
Emotions are important for good decision-making and to keep friendly relationships with others around us.We admire people with determination when have the ability to control their emotions when they face pressure,arguments or aggression(attack).We also enjoy being with people who can express co-operation and forgiveness.We need these emotions to be happy in our professional life as much as we need them in our private life.
The majority of problems at work are caused by unmet emotional needs.The emotional-intelligent manager knows bow to make out and manage the emotional needs of both the customers and his team.He or she.wants to help others feel respected,supported,helped,trusted,important,special,useful,needed and valued.
When our emotional needs are satisfled, we feel better,and when we feel better,we are more productive,patient,creative,open-minded,and caring.
Emotional intelligence requires that we develop our abilities in four main areas:
1) self-awareness
being aware of our emotions as they happen;
2) managing emotions
keeping a healthy balance of emotion and thinking;
3) recognizing emotions in others
it’s a great communicating skill;
4) handling relationships
managing emotions in others increases our popularity.our leadership ability and our
communication effectiveness.
72.when did EQ become popular?
A.After Peter Salovey and John Mayer defined the term.
B.After computers became widely spread in our life.
C.After Daniel Coleman published his book on EQ.
D.After an expert said it was quite important.
73.Which of the following controls our emotion?
A.Amygdala in our brains.
B.Our sensory organs.
C.Our mind.
D.Our head.
74.What is the reason for most of the problems we meet at werk?
A.Our emotional needs cannot be satisfied.
B.We cannot get along well with others.
C.We do not have the nerves of steel.
D.We are extremely tired.
75.According to the passage,“managing emotions”suggests that .
A.we should always control our emotions
B.we should not always control our emotions
C.we should not care so much about our emotions
