Moving should be an exciting time — you’...

Moving should be an exciting time — you’re off to a new home, maybe moving up to a larger home. But for many people, moving turns into a stressful experience. It doesn’t have to be that way. Some planning and a little research can make your next move the best one ever.

Organization is the key to a successful move, so lists are your friends. Write down all the details that you need, especially things that might be lost during the move.

Once you decide to move, start packing things immediately. You can find all the supplies you need, such as boxes, packing tape and more at truck rental outlets (租赁经销店) like Budget Truck Rental. The experts there can help you figure out how many and what types of boxes you’ll need.

About a month before your moving date, reserve (预定) your moving truck. The company you choose makes a big difference. Budget Truck Rental has 30,000 trucks nationwide for you to choose.

Take care of your mail. Stop by your local post office and write the new address where your mail should be sent. You’ll also want to change the address on any magazine subscriptions (订购) or other services you receive by mail.

Make sure you have a group of friends to help you move. If you still have some boxes to pack, your friends can help you put the boxes into the truck while you finish up.

48. The passage is mainly written for those who ______.

A. help others move to a new home

B. offer rental services to others

C. prepare to move to a new home

D. like outside activities

49. How many suggestions does the passage offer for your move?

A. Three.               B. Four.            C. Five.                 D. Six.

50. According to the passage, which of the following is necessary before the moving?

A. Plan your move well in advance.

B. Make sure everything is clean.

C. Pay your friends enough money.

D. Buy lots of magazines on moving.

51. According to the passage, Budget Truck Rental is a company that ______.

If you’re planning on traveling, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.

First of all, always check and double-check departure (行程) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.

The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between. I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.

“Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was very embarrassing (令人难堪的).

The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.

40. According to the passage, it’s obvious that ______.

A. the author learns some rules of traveling from his own experience

B. the author doesn’t plan his trips or journeys carefully

C. Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travel

D. the American taxi driver never travels to England

41. What should you make sure first before setting off?

A. When you will leave.      B. Where you will go.

C. How you will travel.        D. Whom you will go with.

42. What does the underlined word “there” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. London.            B. Manchester.            C. Tulsa.        D. Dallas.

43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations.

B. You should remember to take credit cards when traveling.

C. You should know more about the weather of the place you’ll visit.

D. You should take enough change when you travel to another country.

Around six weeks ago, Kaileen came running into the house, just getting off the bus from school. She was all excited about a story about homeless pets because of Hurricane (飓风) Katrina and all that was going on to help them. She said that this information came from her animal newspaper (your KIND News). Kaileen has a great love and compassion (同情心) for animals, so her excitement did not surprise me. Her next ideas, however, did. She said that we should go around right then to our neighbors and collect all their change to send to the animal shelters (保护所).

I thought this was a school project, but in fact, it was not. This was what Kaileen wanted to do on her own! Well, it warmed me all over. To see your child so willing to help others just lets you feel that maybe you had done something right in raising (养育) her.

Anyway, I told her to make a card and send it out to our neighbors first. With the help of her older brother, Kaileen soon made a lovely card that asked our neighbors to help these pets by giving their spare change. She gave them a few days and a date she would come by to pick up any donations (捐赠). 

Well, I had to go out and buy a donation box. Kaileen collected $279.50!!! I just thought you would like to know how KIND News had touched a little one’s heart and given her the idea to show her compassion for animals. Thank you — we really enjoy your paper.

A. a report about a warm-hearted girl

A. Pleased and excited.
