1、Passage 18Students can travel in the United States without spending too much money if they follow
these suggestions.
A travel agent can give you information on special economy fares for trains, buses and planes.
Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip, too. You‘ll not only save money, but you‘ll
also see a lot more of the country.Some students may want to travel by car. Be sure to think about going with other students —
many colleges have ―ride boards‖ that list when and where other students plan to travel. Many
radio stations provide the same sort of service — they announce who‘s driving where, when, how
many riders they will take and what the expenses will be.
There are many inexpensive, older hotels near bus or train stations. Check your travel guide
for names of the best. Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where young people can
stay for only a few dollars a night.
You don‘t have to eat in restaurants all the time, but we don‘t recommend a diet of candy and
cola, either. You can usually get a healthy, cheap breakfast in a restaurant. If the weather is warm,
you can buy food in supermarkets or at roadside stands and have a picnic for lunch. For dinner
you can get the names of good, cheap restaurants from travel guides or friends.

1、Passage 2
Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.
Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.
The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large ―hot air balloon‖. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.1.Leonardo Da Vinci( ).

1、Passage 3Dieting to lose weight has become very popular in recent years. People have become more
health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more nutritiously and
exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with
how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many
avoid the so called ―plastic‖ fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more
healthful ingredients(成分) in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they
also try to take enough time to eat a relaxing dinner without phone or TV interruptions.
While dieting may be viewed as beneficial, it has also become a serious problem for
Americans, particularly for young women. Dieting for them has actually become a psychological
addiction(依赖). They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body
weight, and although they look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat.
The current waves of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many
organizations to begin educating the public. Many schools, hospitals, health organizations,
newspapers and magazines, for example, are offering classes, printing booklet articles, etc. to
inform the public of the way to exercise and diet, of the dangers of dieting too rapidly, and of the
places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to ―diet addiction‖1. These days people are dieting more because _______.

A. 　they have become fatter and fatter
