A

Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them .Take

my family’s last vacation .It was my six-year-old son’s winter break form

school ,and we were heading

home form Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked ,and

Delta , the airline ,offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats

and leave the next day .I had meeting in New York?So I had to get back . But that

didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and

took off for home.

The next day my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later

flight.

Yes, I encouraged一okay, ordered-them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?

Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either.

But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days,

a good deal is some-timething few of us can afford to pass up.

I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing (揭露) the worst tricks .I

have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written

a couple

of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And

I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting

your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for

my children,and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good

haircut. It keeps its longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will

also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.

56. Why did Delta give the author's family credits?

They baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert (警觉)。

Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots

On it.She stares at it carefully . A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time

with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other,her gaze(凝视) starts

to lose its focus - until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns?she looks at it

for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from

three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?

Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment,but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes.Perhaps it

is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects(a

comb,a key,an orange and so on),changing the number of objects had an effect separate from

changing the objects themselves.Could it be the pattern that two things make,as opposed to three?

No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number

changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses.Babies who

were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than

when they heard just two;likewist(同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and

moved to spots.

C

It happened to me recently.Iwas telling someone how much Ihad enjoyed reading Barack

Obama?s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President.A friend

Iwas talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words,“a brilliantly?精彩地?written

book”.however,he then went on to talk abour Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea

of his background at all .Isensed that Iwas talking to a book liar.

And it seems that my friend is not the only one.Approximately two thirds of people have lied

about reading a book which they haven?t .In the World Book Day?s“Report on Guilty

Secrets”,Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books,and various

authors,which people have lied about reading,and as I?m not one to lie too often (I?d hate to be

caught out ),I?lladmit here and now that I haven?t read the entire top ten .But I am pleased to say

that,unlike 42 percent of peoplt,I have read the book at number one ,George Orwell?s 1984.I think

it?s really brilliant.

The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many

people lie about having read jane Austen,Charles Dickens,Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven?t read him,but haven?t lied about it either )and Herman Melville.

A sked why they lied,the most common reason was to“impress”someone they were speaking

to.This coule be tricky if the conversation became more in –depth!

But when asked which authors they actually enjoy,people named J.k.Rowling,John

Grisham,Sophie Kinsella(ah,the big sellers,in other words).Forty-two percent of people asked

admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I?ll come

clean:I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never dome so).

64.How did the author find his friend a book liar?

A.By judging his manner of speaking.

B.By looking into his background.

C.By mentioning a famous name.

D.By discussing the book it self.

65.Which of the following is a“guilty secret ”according to the World Book Day report?

A.Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.

B.42% of people pretended to have read 1984.

C.The author admitted having read 9 books.
