阅读短文,按要求回答问题。

It's very interesting to travel by plane? For people who fly often in economy class(经济舱),the answer may be "no". They may feel very tired because of the limited room. But according to Ron Soret, an airplane scientist, there are some ways to enjoy the journey better.
Sit near the front of the plane. When choosing seats, choosing a seat near the front of the plane will have a smoother ride. Soret says, "The front part of the plane is usually the most comfortable.
You hardly feel the turbulence(骚乱)if it is not very serious. "Soret also says the front part of the plane is the quietest.
Taking an aisle seat(靠走道座位）is also a good choice. Soret says the aisle seats have bigger room. But sitting on the aisle comes with the duty of getting up when fellow passengers in the row have to use the bathroom.
Paying attention to the temperature is important, too. Temperatures in the planes are usually similar to those of your home. And if you are too cold, you can ask for blankets.
79. Why may people feel tired when they fly in economy class?
80. Which part of the plane is the quietest?
81. What is also a good choice?
82. What can you ask for if you feel cold on a plane?
83. How many pieces of advice does Soret give in the passage?

Hello, everyone. I'm Peter from Class5 Grade8. Back to the life in the last year, I think I have changed a lot and made great progress in many ways.
First, in the past I seldom read books. I used to spend most of time playing computer games. Now I find it interesting to do some reading because good books help me relax after a busy day. They open up a new world to me.
Second, I used to waste food. I didn't eat up all the food when having meals. I always dropped litter carelessly in the park. But now I have realized the importance of protecting the environment.
I am used to throwing the litter into rubbish bins. I am living a green life.
Third, I was impolite before. I sometimes shouted loudly or pushed in before others. Now I behave politely in public.
Finally, I used to care little about others. But now I offer to take part in charity activities and help more people in need.
I am sure I will do much better in the future.
Thanks for listening.
