22、 Is there a best way to pack clothes? The following ideas are of great help to those who are always on the way.
Where to start?
【1】 Once you see how much you lay in front of you, be brave and reduce about a third. Because the truth is like your wardrobe, you never seem to use as much as you take.
How to deal with clothing?
Start with your shoes. Put underwear or socks inside them to hold the shape of your shoes. Thus, you can make use of every square inch of space. Once your shoes are firmly in place, fill small gaps with very soft items. 【2】 .
Lay out the first clothes with one end inside the suitcase and the other end dropping over the edge. Put the next clothes on top of this, but place them the other way around. 【3】 In this way, you’ll get another flat layer soon Finally, one by one, fold the clothes back in.
Where to put non-clothing?
【4】 These awkward shaped items are difficult to pack. You’d better put them towards the middle give maximum protection. Remember.to double bag your toiletries kit (洗漱袋) to avoid spotting your clothes.
Top tips:
If you take a belt, slip them along the inside of your case. 【5】 That will take more space. Next, use the hard shape of the case to offer protection. Leave your toiletries kit in your suitcase, when you return home. It’s ready for the next time you travel.
A. Don’t roll belts up.
B. Be sure to put away socks.
C. This idea will create a flat first layer.
D. And then continue laying other clothes.
E. That will make the job a whole lot easier.
F. Lay everything you want to take with you on the bed.
G. Non-clothing items are things like books, toothbrushes and cameras.
23、They had a dozen children, six boys and six girls, in seventeen years. One reason Dad had so many children was that he was confident anything he and Mother teamed upon was sure to be a success.
Our house at Montclair, New Jersey, was a sort of school for scientific management and the removal of wasted motions — or “motion study,” as Dad and Mother named it.
Dad took moving pictures of us children washing dishes, so that he could determine how we could reduce our motions and thus hurry through the task. Each child who wanted extra pocket money put forward an offer saying what he would do the job for. The lowest bidder got the contract(合约).
Dad put process and work charts in the bathrooms. Every child old enough to write — and Dad expected his children to start writing at a young age — was required to sign their names on the charts in the morning after he had brushed his teeth, taken a bath, combed his hair, and made his bed. At night, each child had to weigh himself, mark the figure on a graph, and sign the process charts again after he had done his homework, washed his hands and face, and brushed his teeth. Mother wanted to have a place on the charts for saying prayers, but Dad said as far as he was concerned prayers were voluntary.
It was strict management, all right. Yes, at home or on the job, Dad was always the efficiency expert. He buttoned his vest from the bottom up, instead of from the top down, because the bottom-to-top process took him only three seconds, while the top-to-bottom took seven. He even used two shaving brushes to make his face smooth enough, because he found that by so doing he could cut seventeen seconds off his shaving time. For a while he tried shaving with two razors, but he finally gave that up.
“I can save forty-four seconds,” he complained, “but I wasted two minutes this morning putting this bandage on my throat.” It wasn’t the injured throat that really bothered him. It was the two minutes.
【1】Why was the author’s house considered a sort of school?
A. It had a team of twelve children there.
B. The children were taught how to work well in it.
C. The parents could teach their children better at home.
D. The parents could have the children’s daily activities recorded.
【2】What is the purpose of signing the charts?
A. To help to do things efficiently. B. To manage the big family effectively.
C. To look after the children better. D. To remind the children to obey the rules.
【3】What did the father complain about one morning?
A. He should have given up shaving. B. His bleeding throat bothered him.
C. He couldn’t shave with two razors. D. He failed to cut short his shaving time.
【4】We can we infer from the text?
A. The kids had to bid for everything they wanted.
B. The author took pride in his father’s management.
C. The couple were always troubled by their children.
D. The father’s work was to teach the children at home.
24、 The British people have just discovered a new country. It’s called the UK! More and more people are choosing to take their holidays in their own country rather than travel abroad.
In the late 1970s, air travel became affordable for the average family in the UK, and more and more British people started travelling abroad for their summer holidays (July-August). After all, the British weather isn’t very good, even in summer, so a lot of Britons leave the UK for a vacation. Particularly popular with families on a budget is the “package holiday”, where the cost of flights and accommodation are offered as one discounted price by travel agents.
In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became more wealthy. As a result, the Club 18-30 holiday became popular. Young people started to go abroad in groups, to places such as Spain and Greece. Once at their destination, they socialised with other groups of young people and had one long party.
British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. Climate change means that the UK now has a warmer climate than before, so people don’t always feel they need to go overseas to find good weather. Also, the world seems a less certain place as interconnected economies rise and fall, which means that the cost of foreign holidays is less predictable than it used to be. As a result, more and more Britons are choosing to spend their summer holidays in the UK.
In recent years, British hotels in areas such as the English Lake District have seen a large increase in bookings. That rise is mainly owing to the British staying in their own country for their holidays. In addition, for some foreign tourists, the UK is a cheaper place to visit than previously because of changes in the value of the British pound.
The UK has always been famous for its international explorers, but now it is starting to discover itself.
【1】What is the feature of the Club 18-30 holiday?
A.Young people went abroad with their family.
B.Young people got lots of money from their family.
C.Young people took part in social activities abroad.
D.Travel agents offered a better discount to young people.
【2】Why do British people prefer domestic holidays now?
A.They are wealthier and more social.
B.The global weather is becoming predictable.
C.The UK is famous for its beautiful scenery.
D.The expense on foreign holidays is unsteady.
【3】How is the text mainly organized?
A.In order of frequency. B.In order of time.
C.In order of space. D.In order of importance.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Holidays and Habits B.Weather and Scenery
C.Travels and Economies D.Package Holiday and Culture
