26、 I was always pretty independent, but living alone made me even more at peace. Living alone helped me grow as a human being. Caitlin Moscatello had a similar experience:
“I was the queen of my own 400-square-foot-castle for three years, and looking back, I can see that that short stretch of time was crucially important to establish my independence. It started with small things: I negotiated my rent on my own, created a household budget (预算) on my own, hashed out a savings plan on my own. I signed up for half-marathons, and actually ran them. I tried hot yoga, and hated it, but whatever, I tried it. And then, the results had a bigger payoff: I put in late hours at work, because I didn’t have anyone asking me ‘Will you be home for dinner?’ and got promoted. I met a guy on one of many fun, little dates, and he turned out to be the love of my life. I also got gutsier(有勇气的): I traveled abroad alone, several times, without thinking twice about it.”
I also think my time alone makes me a better partner now that I share my life (and my space) with another person. The real secret of living alone? You’re not living alone, you’re living with yourself. And the better you know yourself — what truly makes you happy, melancholy, frustrated or bored — the better you can deal with it without depending on others. Which means you won’t be putting pressure on other people in your life to do that work for you.
Living alone doesn’t mean you become a hermit(隐者, 逸士). In fact, you’ll likely find yourself more excited to see people and go out when your home space is all your own. And studies have shown that single people get out more — to social gatherings, community events, volunteering — than those who are coupled up. Or as Aletheia Luna writes, “It’s human nature to take our friends, family and loved ones for granted. Living alone, devoid of the presence of others, helps us to appreciate these people more when they are around.”
【1】According to the 2nd paragraph, living alone is not good for ________.
A.making decisions B.keeping up one’s health
C.getting off work on time D.having one’s independence
【2】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Caitlin Moscatello was a queen. B.The writer got married.
C.Living alone can avoid feeling sad. D.Aletheia Luna is a hermit.
【3】What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase in the last paragraph “devoid of”?
A.full of B.free of
C.short of D.because of

28、A few things to consider before booking a flight
Since you can't drive to all your dream places, flying may be the only, though a more expensive, way to go sometimes. 【1】. Here are some tips to keep money in your wallet once you get to the airport.
Fly during the least popular times
Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday are the best days to fly, which means cheaper deals than the rest of the week. 【2】. People usually don't like to get up before the sun to go to the airport.
【3】
Airlines will charge for just about anything these days. All those extra fees can certainly add up. One way to avoid the extra fees is to fly carry -on only. Almost all airlines charge on baggage and they charge big. Why pay for your clothes to fly with you? It's easy to reduce the amount of stuff you pack, 【4】. So you can take less and still make more outfit combinations,
Pack your own snacks
Unless you're flying internationally, it's rare that your flight comes with a free meal. Snacks on the plane are not cheap and almost never healthy. So don't rely on what's on the small menu and instead take some of your own snacks, such as chocolate bars, homemade biscuits or fruit. All make wonderful travel foods. 【5】.
A．Fly on holidays
B．Try to avoid extra fees
C．You can also find cheaper tickets for early morning flights
D．You can also eat much better and cheaper than other passengers
E．Earlier boarding times can also cut down your chances of delays

29、 Born in Oak Park, Illinois, on January 17, 1922, Betty White was the only child of Horace and Tess White. Indeed, while most young kids were begging their parents for pets, White said she was the lucky little girl whose parents went for a walk and would come home with a dog or a cat.
The personal passion for animals has often mixed with her professional work. She created, produced and hosted a 1971 animal show called the Pet Set, which featured both wild animals and her friends’ own pets.

“I’m the luckiest person in the world—my life is divided in absolute half: half animals, half show business,” she said.
She started working with the Los Angeles Zoo in the 1960s. “My interest in zoos started early on, because my mom and dad went to the zoo often, not just to please their little girl, but because they enjoyed the experience,” she wrote in her book. She worked with the Los Angeles Zoo because she was kind of shocked that Los Angeles had such a poor zoo inside. She said, “I’ve never been one to stand outside and criticize (批评). I’d rather get inside and see what’s going on, see how I can help.”
“Zoos don’t only exhibit animals; they do a lot of wonderful protection work,” she said. “Many people have a closed mind on zoos. They think no animal should be kept in zoos. Instead, they should all be in the wild in their own habitat. Well, of course, that is a myth.”
