After he got off the train ,he suddenly remembered to telephone his mother. He looked around because he had no right money. As soon as he saw an old soldier, he stopped him and said, “Have you got change for 10 pence?” “Wait a moment. I’ll see whether I can help you.” “Don’t you know how to speak to an officer?” the officer said angrily, “Now, let’s start again.

Of course, there are lots of great things about working for oneself, at home alone. What I really like is that nobody tells me what time to start in the morning, what to wear; or whether I can take the afternoon off and go to a football match.But then, I have no one to chat with when I'm bored, no one to discuss last night's match with during the lunch-hour. Sure, I can spend the afternoon doing something I enjoy, like swimming, walking the dog, or even sleeping, if I choose. But the work will still be there when I do finally get back home, and it's still got to be finished in time. Unfortunately, working at home means that people can always find me, whether I’m bored or not and once I’ve answered the doorbell, it's too late——my thoughts have been interrupted. No one would dream of calling if I worked in an office, but in an office I find myself making cups of coffee and listening to friends' troubles. As they talk, my ideas disappear and I feel increasingly stressed thinking of my work waiting to be done.60. What is the writer trying to do in the text?A.To encourage readers to work at home.B.To explain why he has changed his job.C.To describe his working life.D. To say how he would like to work.61. What can the reader learn from the text?A. How to start working for oneself.B. What it's like to work at home.C. Why the writer decided to work for himself.D. How artists become successful.62 What does the writer imagine he might do with colleagues（同事）?A. Have meals in restaurants.B. Go to the swimming pool.C. Spend time in the countryside.D. Talk about sport.CTravel AdviceTravel Tips from the Budget T ravellerNot all tickets to a particular destination cost the same. How can you make sure you get a cheap ticket? Here are some points to remember.Plan in advance. Passengers planning to travel by plane or train should buy their tickets at least day before the trip. Y ou can save money that way. There are often special airfares and rail fares if you buy your ticket more than 7 days or 14 days in advance.Shop around. Not all travel agencies or airlines charge the same amount of money for airline tickets to the same place. It’s a good idea to call several different places to get the best deal. Sometimes you can find really good flight prices on the Internet. But be careful: it is very hard to change the tickets after buying from an online travel agency.Stay over a Saturday night.Some airlines offer low airfares if you stay over a Saturday night. This is because they want to attract the pleasure travellers. Pleasure travellers are usually able to stay over on a Saturday night. Business travellers usually want to be home with their families on Saturday nights.T ake a boat. For some destinations, travelling by plane is not the only choice available. Most people travelling from Japan to Korea or China, for example, by plane. This is because plane travel is quick and convenient. But you can make the journey by boat, instead. It takes more time, of course, but there are usually cheap deals for boat passengers — and you have lots of time to enjoy the journey.Travel with a friend or in a group. Travelling in a group is often a good way to save money. If you travel in a group of 10 or more, you can usually get a good deal from airlines. Also, when you rent a car, you can share the cost instead of paying for it yourself. In addition, sharing with another traveller can help you get a cheap room price at a hotel.Join a Frequent T ravel Programme. Many airlines offer special programmes for regular travellers. These are called “Frequent Travel Programmes” or “Frequent Flyer Programmes”. Every time you travel with an airline, you get points. When you have a lot of points, you can get free flights from the airline. It’s a great way to travel for free!63.

Leave on Thursday and return on Sunday afternoon.B. Leave on Monday and return on Wednesday.C. Leave on Wednesday and return on Saturday morning.D. Leave on Friday and return on Saturday night.65. Why does the writer suggest taking a boat from Japan to Korea?A. It’s quick and very convenient.B. Y ou can’t take a plane.C. It’s cheap and you can enjoy the journey.D. It takes more time.66.
