And this is largely true. it seems-unless you are Japanese. In which case, by the time you are 25, you (26) be just as wise as your elders, an (27) new stu

16、dy reveals.Americans, however, are more (28) and develop deep understanding over lime, (29) a research by the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada.In one of the tests, designed to measure five (30) aspects of reasoning U.S. citizens scores improved by 22 percent over 50 years.But, in the (31) s

17、cored out of 100. both 25-year-old and 75-year-old Japanese participants had an average quotient of 51 for intergroup wisdom-the idea of understanding society.With Americans, on the other hand, results from the same tests (32) between averages of 45 and 55 between the two age groups.Also, (33) wisdo

18、m-the understanding of relationships between individuals-the scores of the 225 U.S. participants climbed from 46 to 50. However, (34) the 186 Japanese people, their scores actually dropped slightly from 53 to 52.The tests also recorded other unexpected results. Given the U.S. reputation of an indivi

19、dualistic society, you might expect its participants interpersonal wisdom to be higher than their supposedly more collective Japanese (35) . Yet the study showed that by 75, the Japanese scored higher in the interpersonal wisdom and Americans, in tact, achieved higher results in the intergroup varie

20、ty.Dr Grossman suggested that perhaps, then. you need individual skills when society is collective, and social ones when it is individualistic.（分数：71.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_九、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)十、Section A(总题数：1，分数：35.50)Englands highes

21、t main-line railway station hangs on to life by a thread: desexed and unmanned (无人区) since it was officially closed in 1970. Dent (36) high in the hills of Yorkshire, wakes up on six summer weekends each year, when a special charter train unloads walkers, sightseers and people who (37) want to catch

22、 a train from the highest station, on to its platform. But even this limited existence may soon be brought to an end. Dent station is situated on the Settle to Carlisle railway line, said to be the most (38) in the country. But no amount of scenic beauty can save the line from British Rails cash pro

23、blems. This year, for the (39) of economy, the express trains which used to pass through Dent station have been put on to another route.It is now an open secret that British Rail sees no future for this railway line. Most of its trains disappeared some time ago. Its bridge, built on a grand (40) a c

24、entury ago, is falling down. It is not alone. Half-a-dozen railway routes in the north of England are facing a similar threat. The problem is a worn-out system and an almost (41) lack of cash to repair it. Bridges and tunnels are showing their age, the wooden supports for the tracks are rotting and

25、engines and coaches are getting old. On (42) lines between large cities, the problem is not too bad. These lines still make a profit and cash can be found to (43) them. But on the country branch line, the story is different. As track wears out, it is not replaced. Instead speed limits are introduced

26、, making journeys longer than necessary and discouraging customers.If a bridge is dangerous, there is often only one thing for British Rail to do: go out and find money from another (44) . This is exactly what it did a few months ago when a bridge at Bridlington station was threatening to fail down.

27、 Repairs were (45) at 200,000-just for one bridge-and British Rail was delighted, and rather surprised, when two local councils offered half that amount between them.Amaintain IconsolidationBscenic JsituatedCtranscend KrespectivelyDsource LtotalEestimated MmajorFsake NrestrainedGcomplex OscaleHsimpl

Based on the destination and time of year, I was surprised t

29、o find only two adjacent seats were available without paying a premium (额外费用). But I was even more surprised a few weeks later, when we boarded the aircraft and a flight attendant announced that only 30% of seats were occupied, so we should all feel free to stretch out.BSo how could a flight that lo

30、oked nearly full a month earlier wind up with seven out of ten seats empty? Thats a question only the airlines can answer, and theyre not eager to provide many details.CAre some carriers intentionally holding back seat assignments, in the hope well all pay for “premium“ seats? Its a fair question, a

31、nd the evidence is intriguing.Behind the screen indeedDAn awful plot goes on behind airline and travel booking screens, and much of it is strictly off-limits to consumers. What we do know is that for decades now airlines have become masters of what the industry calls yield management, offering milli

32、ons of combinations of fares based on advance purchase patterns and other booking trends, so nearly everyone pays a different price based on when they buy. But now that paying extra for your seat selection has become common practice, securing your reservation is just half the battle.ESome industry e

33、xperts have connected the dots. “Theyre trying to get people to buy premium seats,“ says George Hobica, USATODAY.coms Fly Guy columnist and the founder of A. “They want to increase revenue. And were getting more complaints about it. “ He notes that it “really annoys“ passengers who want to sit toget

34、her, particularly when traveling with small children.FHes echoed by Kevin Mitchell, chairman of the Business Travel Coalition(联盟): “With yield management, consumers are aware and they know that airlines are constantly changing prices on seats. But if this is true, it is unethical-theyre grossly misl

35、eading us. The thing that I find so offensive is conveying to me that I have no options, but if I wait a week or two then I do have options. “GAccording to the airlines, the reason for ancillary (附加的) revenue is unbundling (分类计价) ticket prices, so passengers who desire a given service-say checking a

36、 bag or ordering a soft drink-pay for it, while those who dont are spared the cost. But as Mitchell notes, “Theres another twist to this. The airlines are saying fees are for optional services. Well, seats arent optional! “HOf course, securing a good seat isnt an issue if youre in first class or you

37、re an elite member of a frequent flyer program. But what about the rest of us? As Ive pointed out repeatedly in recent columns, were faced with record-high load factors, the highest for the U.S. airline industry since World War . But even with the average percentage of occupied seats for domestic fl

38、ights at 82.7%, its still an average-some flights will be fuller but others will not, particularly weeks in advance. Yet searching for seats keeps getting harder and harder.Seats for saleIHobica cites the major airlines as the prime culprits (起因), but he also notes even low-cost carriers can make se

39、curing seats difficult. On the flip side, he credits JetBlue and Virgin America for providing customers with clear policies. And then there is British Airways, which allows passengers in economy and business classes to select seats only 24 hours in advance. I asked an airline representative if seein

40、g fewer free seats is a trend, and the response was: “Thats going to vary because there are so many variables. “JI decided to check on seat availability at D. I inquired about economy-class availability for two seats on a busy route-Atlanta to Chicago-and conducted an apples-to-apples search for the

41、 same morning departure seven days in advance, and again 14 days in advance. For the flight one week out, a total of only eight seats were available, one preferred and seven standard, but only one set of two seats together. For the flight two weeks out, a total of 29 seats were available, consisting

42、 of 20 preferred and only nine standard, and still with only one set together. Remarkable how even twice the booking time still produced so few “free“ seats, separately or together, yet there were plenty of seats that could be bought for the right price.KI contacted Delta and a spokesman said the pr

43、ice for preferred economy varies “depending on a number of different factors,“ so customers need to compare the costs on a flight-by-flight basis. The preferred seats are reserved primarily for Medallion (大勋章) members, and become available without additional charge 24 hours prior to departure. When

44、asked if Delta has received complaints about a dearth of free seats, he stated, “Overall, our seat program has been received very well. “LBut my findings dovetailed (吻合) with recent complaints filed with Airfarewatchdog: (1) When (my husband) tried to get a seat assignment on the first flight there

45、was just one “complimentary (免费的) seat“ (near the back in the middle) available, the other available seats had to be purchased for 69. On the connecting fight there were no “complimentary seats“ at all! Is this legal? He bought and paid for a ticket on these flights and now he is supposed to “buy“ a

46、 seat! (2) (After) paying for the flight, a message popped up and said that I could only get a seat assignment when I checked in. In order to get a confirmed seat, I had to pay 129 extra! Unless I pay, without a confirmed seat, I am the first one to be bumped from the flight if they are overbooked.

47、How do they get away with this? (3) Does checking in online at the 24-hour mark before the flight give me a number in line or let me select seats then? Or do we all rush the gate with our boarding passes (and no seat assignment) in order to get the seat assignment?How to respond?MSo what can you do? Its a tough proposition. Usually I would offer strategies for countering such airline initiatives, but in this case the options are limited, Thats why stance believe the U.S. Department of Transportation should investigate these practices. As Mitch
