28、ider before booking a flightWith fuel costs rising and airlines finding more fees to impose on travelers every day, airfare isnt getting any cheaper. Since you cant drive to all your dream destinations, flying is the only way to go sometimes and, undeniably, the fastest. Luckily, there are plenty of
29、 ways to find the most affordable fares and also avoid paying as many extra charges as possible when you plan ahead. Getting the best fare Airlines put out their fare sales on Tuesday morning, making this day the best day to book a flight for less. Fly during the least popular times Tuesday, Wednesd
30、ay and Saturday are the slowest days to fly, which means cheaper deals than the rest of the week. You can also find reduced rates on early morning flights, since many people dont like to get up before the sun to get to the airport. Earlier boarding times can also considerably cut down your chances o
31、f getting bumped（取消已预定的飞机座位）on an overbooked flight or delayed because of other delayed flights or mechanical issues.Choose your seat later Some airlines charge you to pick your seat when you book online, adding even more to the bottom line of your ticket cost. If you show up early on your travel da
32、y, you can still get suitable seats. Some of the best seats get held back until flight day, unless others are willing to pay extra for them ahead of time, so you still have the chance at one of those. Fly on holidaysYou already know that summer is the most expensive time to fly, and even though most
33、 other times are more affordable, the days surrounding holidays can be crazy. Save big if youre willing to travel on major holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas.Dont wait until the last-minute to book Many travelers dont know that theres a sweet spot for booking and getting the best price on
34、your tickets. Book too early or too late and you could end up paying more than you need to. The best time to book is between three months and six weeks from when you want to 6travel. Avoiding extra fees Airlines will charge for just about anything these days. Some have even toyed around with chargin
35、g customers for using the restroom. All those extra fees can certainly add up, but theres no reason to pay them if you dont have to. Here are some tips to keep money in your wallet once you get to the airport.Avoid the upgrade its not necessarySometimes upgrades are free, but mostly you will be char
36、ged for seeking a last-minute bump to first class, and the cost can be large.Fly carry-on onlyBaggage fees vary wildly, but almost all airlines charge them and charge big. Why pay for your clothes to fly with you? If everyone in your travel party checks a bag, your bill can be astronomical before yo
37、u ever even get to your destination. Its easy to reduce the amount of stuff you pack: Make sure all your clothing coordinates, so you can take less and still make more outfit combinations, take only two pair of shoes, plan to do a bit of laundry on your trip and bring only travel-sized toiletries.Pa
38、ck your own snacksUnless youre flying internationally, its rare your flight comes with a free meal. Snacks on the plane are not cheap and almost never healthy. Dont rely on whats on the small menu and instead tuck some of your own snacks granola bars, homemade muffins, fruit and trail mix all make f

According to the passage, you can do the things except _ to avoid extra fees.A. use the restroomB. eat your own snacks heartilyC. fly with carry-onD. give up the upgradeBThe traditional news media in America has been hav
42、ing a rough time in the last few 7years. According to a recent survey, more Americans have a negative (43%) than a positive (33%) view of the news media, and are finding it harder to be well informed because it is getting harder to determine which news is accurate.The problem is preference. While id
43、eally the media should be objective and hold power to account, in reality we know that most news outlets belong to a certain party and have their own agenda to advance. Whether state-owned or run by some shady tax-avoiding billionaire, getting “the masses” to view the world from a certain perspectiv
44、e has always been a priceless power to wield.So why is trust in the media so low? Well, according to the same survey, 8 out of 10 Americans believe that the news media are critical to their democracy. The gap between these noble expectations of an honest, objective media and the performance that the
45、y actually deliver is large. Times when the mask slips and examples of media manipulation（操纵）are exposed are hugely damaging to trust, and people naturally turn to social media for others, even-easier-to-manipulate sources. Thus we are in the current state in which we find ourselves:confused and mis
46、trustful.People have been posting examples of how media can use different techniques of deception, to trick you into seeing exactly what they wanted you to see. As you will discover, perspective really is everything! It will goes to show that a healthy dose of skepticism goes a long way, and getting
47、 your news from a wide rang of different sources is your best bet to a more rounded view of the world we live in. Social media is good in that respect, but bad in terms of regulation, trolling and people shouting horrible things at each other. The good old traditional news media really is needed as
48、a forum for reasonable debate and expert opinion, but they gotta stop with the manipulation already!59. What does para2 want to convey?A. People have prejudice for media B. The media can take control of the partyC. The media have acted as a tool to mask the truthD. The media have a priceless power60. Whats your understanding of the sentence “As you wi
