14.General Airport Tips
Plan to get to the airport at least an hour early,or two during holidays and other busy times; this will reduce the stress of the flight.If all goes well,you will have time to relax,shop for last-minute items,or have a meal before the flight.
Flight Delays
Find out why your flight is delayed.Call the free call numbers.Find out if other airlines are experiencing similar delays.If you believe the delay is due to something other than weather or air traffic problems,then mention your suspicion (怀疑) and ask the airline agent to book you on the next available flight,either on the same air-line or a competing one.This is called"Rule 240",and all airlines are required to do it.Use the lingo (行话); ask,"Can you 240me?"when speaking with an agent.They will know what you mean.
Flight Cancellations(取消)
If your flight is canceled,then make a reservation on the next flight to your destination.Usually,air-line officials will try to book everyone on their next flight out.Often they will put you on a competitor's next flight only if you request it.
Getting bumped(不能登机)
To avoid getting bumped,you must be at the loading gate at least 10minutes ahead of scheduled departure for a U.S.Flight,20minutes to/from Bahamas,Canada,and Mexico and 30to/from all other international points.You must be at the loading gate,not the airport entrance.

8.It seems that great artists and scientists often suffer from mental problems.Both Einstein and Dickens had mental illness.Now scientists have started to look at whether mental illness and genius are linked(联系).
Dr.Adele Juda studied 5,000creative people in Germany.She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population.Poets had the highest rate(比例) of mental illness,followed by musicians,with lower numbers for painters and architects.
Other scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity.But,it did nothing to explain it.
Dr.Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough.Instead of studying creative people,she took a group of psychiatric(精神病的) patients and tested them for creativity.The patients got much higher scores than a normal group.
Also,the patients'close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group.This suggests that the key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes(基因).
But this is a problem.According to Darwinism,harmful genes should be removed.Some scientists believe that evolution(进化) has created a balance,where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the whole human race.
Geniuses may be mad,bad or just difficult to understand,but their discoveries have improved the world we live in.It seems that a little creative madness is good for us all.

49.According to Dr.Adele Juda,which of the following group has the lowest rate of mental illness?D
A.Painters.B.Musicians.C.Poets.D.Bus drivers.
50.The underlined phrase"made a breakthrough"in the fourth paragraph meansA.
A.discover or find something new and important
B.make a way through using force
C.(of the sun or moon) appear from behind (clouds)
D.suddenly change (from a slower to a faster pace)
51.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
A.Among the 5,000creative people in Germany,more people suffer from mental diseases than the general population.
B.There is a strong link between mental problems and creativity.
C.Psychiatric patients make greater contributions than common people.
D.The key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes.
52.What is the writer's attitude toward madness?B
A.Madness is harmful to the whole society.
B.A little creative madness is good for us all.
C.All the talented people are mad.
D.Only the people with mental illness have more creativity.

13.The Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores within the Greater Hamilton area.We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for   your family,the community and the environment.The concept of buying locally is simple:buy food produced,grown,or raised as close to  your home as possible.Not only will your food be fresher and tastier,but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your community and reducing pollution.
Better for the environment
Sustainabilityand global warming are such hot topics at the moment,and  many                 people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment.Small action carried  out by many people can make a big difference.Most materials in an average North      American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate.To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and       refrigeration but also customers'expenses as well.
Taste and nutritional content
Locally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested.Because they are picked at the height of ripeness(成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market,their freshness,nutrition,and flavor are kept.Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.Community and home values
When you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods,you are engaged in a    time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater.You also help keep dollars within your community.
21.It can be inferred from the third paragraph thatC.
A.global warming is the most serious problem now
B.North American food is rich in various kinds of materials
C.the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customers
D.most people support buying locally
22.Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostly becauseA.
A.they are picked when they are fully grown
B.they are not polluted by chemical fertilizer
C.they can be harvested at any time
D.they are sent to the market at a high speed
23.According to the author,when you buy locally-grown foodsB.
A.you can see how fruits and vegetables grow
B.you will contribute to protecting the environment
C.you will become much healthier and prettier
D.you are making money from your community
24.What does the passage mainly talk about?D
A.The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.
B.The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.
C.The importance of protecting the environment.
D.The benefits of buying locally.
