【题目】A Samoan airline says that it is the world’s first carrier to charge passengers by their weight. Samoa Air, which opened in 2012, asks passengers to give their personal weight during booking, which is then charged according to the length of a flight. The customers will also be weighed just before they board the plane.

"It is believed that all people throughout the world are the same size," Samoa Air CEO Chris Langton said. "Airplanes always run on weight, not seats."

"There is no doubt in my mind that this is the concept of the future. This is the fairest way of your travelling with your family or yourself."

Though the airline introduced the plan last November, it caught people's attention last week when the carrier began international flights to neighboring American Samoa.

Almost at the same time, a Norwegian economist, Bharat Bhatta, published a report suggesting that airlines should charge obese passengers more.

The Pacific Islands contain some of the world’s most common countries for obesity, many ranking in the top 10, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Samoa is ranked number four, with 59.6 percent of the population considered obese, said the most recent WHO report.

According to Samoa Air's latest schedule, the airline charges up to $0.57 per kg for flights in Samoa and $1.03 per kg for its only international flight to American Samoa, around 250 miles.

Children under 12 are charged 75 percent of the adult rate, with fares also based on weight. Any overweight baggage is calculated at the same rate as the passenger's personal weight.

The plan could actually prove cheaper in some cases, such as for families travelling with small children, and Langton said customer reaction has mainly been "amazingly positive".

The idea of charging passengers by weight has been hotly discussed before, and in the US some airlines require those who do not fit into a seat comfortably to buy a second seat.

1What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Airlines should charge passengers by flight length.

B. All people throughout the world are the same size.

C. It is unfair to weigh passengers at the airport.

D. Airplanes always run on weight, not seats.

2In Bharat Bhatta’s eyes, Samoa Air's plan might be _______.

A. funny B. acceptable

C. strange D. disappointing

3A 100 kg adult flying to American Samoa would be charged _______.

A. $57 B. $75

C. $103 D. $125

4What does the text mainly tell us?

A. 59.6% of Samoans are considered obese.

B. Samoa Air introduces pay-by-weight pricing.

C. Airlines should charge obese passengers more.

D. Baggage must be calculated as passengers’ weight.

One day on my way to school, I went to buy the pancake in a food store, leave my bag on the table while waiting. With the pancake ready, and I paid for it, took “my bag” on the table, and hurriedly headed to school.

Seating in the classroom, I was about to take my books out while suddenly I became frozen. It was not my bag! I took the bag for mistake! What surprised me most was there was a large sum of money in it. Calming me down, I turned to the teacher for help.

At that time, I come to understand the true meaning of being honestly.

【题目】“Don’t be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you much stronger. If you do little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves,” said Dale Carnegie.

Sometimes, doing your best work or trying your hardest at something is difficult. It may have something to do with trying to do something new for the first time, like a new sport or activity at school. It may have something to do with doing homework for a subject that is not your favorite or is not your best.

As Hunter S. Thompson once said, “Anything worth doing is worth doing right.” And as Albert Einstein added, “We have to do the best we can. This is our sacred human responsibility.”

Developing the habit of trying your hardest and doing your best is something that will help you succeed throughout your life. If you have looked at some quotes related to trying your hardest, you will see that many of them come from people who have made a big difference in the world. This is not a coincidence. It was not only their cleverness that helped them stand out and change the world, but their ability to try their hardest and do their best in whatever they were doing. If you can develop this same habit---to do your best in any situation, it will be a great benefit to your family, career, school and community.

As Bob Cousy put it, “Do your best when no one is looking. If you do that, then you can be successful at anything you put your mind to.” The choice is yours.

1Why does the author use the quote of Dale Carnegie in Paragraph 1?

A. To describe a scene. B. To introduce a topic.

C. To draw a conclusion. D. To support an argument.

2According to the passage, in which case is it difficult to try your hardest?

A. When you are doing something that you are familiar with.

B. When you are doing something that you are good at.

C. When you are doing something that you feel bored with.

D. When you are doing something that you like very much.

3Why does the author suggest we develop the habit of trying our hardest?

A. To let us make a big difference in the world.

B. To help us achieve success all through our life.

C. To make us more skillful in our work.

D. To make it possible for us to benefit the whole world.

4What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To inform. B. To advertise.

C. To introduce. D. To persuade.

【题目】Etiquette,or good manners,used to be the glue that held society together.1Sadly,these days it has mostly gone by the wayside.This list is several best rules of etiquette that have now disappeared.

Opening the Door

In days gone by,a gentleman would always open doors for ladies.2This has now almost entirely disappeared and it is not entirely the fault of the men.I have seen women laugh at men for opening a door for them.They seem to be confusing manners with chauvinism(大男子主义).

Writing Thank-You Notes

In days gone by,whenever a person received a gift,they would write a thank-you note as soon as possible.3 Parents would sit children down after a birthday or Christmas and coach them in their first thank-you note.It is a shame that gift giving has now become a virtual obligation and the idea of a thank-you note would be laughed at.

4

We seem to have completely lost the concept of correct timing when it comes to parties these days.5After all,a party normally has a guest of honor-this is usually the oldest woman present.It was considered extremely rude in the past to leave a party before the guest of honor-and once the guest of honor left,it was a signal to all that they should begin their own preparations to leave.

A.Arriving on Time.

B.Leaving at the Right Time.

C.People leave with various excuses.

D.It enabled people to get on well with each other.

E.This rule was true even if the giver was a relative.

F.It could be the lady they were driving,or a stranger.

G.We've thrown away the concept of a guest of honor at will.
