考题请阅读短文。 Do who choose to go on exotic, far-flung holidays deserve free health advice before they travel? And even if they pay, who ensures that they get good, up-to-date information? Who, for that matter, should collect that information in the first place? For a variety of reasons, travel medicine in Britain is a responsibility nobody wants. As a result, many travellers go abroad prepared to avoid serious disease. Why is travel medicine so unloved? Partly there's an identity problem. Because it takes an interest in anything that impinges on the health of travellers, this emerging medical specialism invariably cuts across the traditional disciplines. It delves into everything from seasickness, jet lag and the hazards of camels to malaria and plague. But travel medicine has a more serious obstacle to overcome. Travel clinics are meant to tell people how to avoid ending up dead or in a hospital when they come home, but it is notoriously difficult to get anybody pay out money for keeping people healthy. Travel medicine has also been colonized by commercial interests; the vast majority of travel clinics in Britain are run by airlines or travel companies. And while travel concerns are happy to sell profitable injections, they may be less keen to spread bad news about travellers' diarrhea in Turkey, or to take time to spell out preventive measures travellers could take."The NHS finds it difficult to define travellers' health, says Ron Behrens, the only NHS consultant in travel and director of the travel clinic of the Hospital for Tropical Diseases in London." Should it come within the NHS or should it be paid for? It's Gary area, and opinion is spilt. No one seems to have any responsibility for defining its role, he says. To compound its low status in the medical hierarchy, travel medicine has to rely on statistics that are patchy at best. In most cases we just don't know how many Britons contract diseases when abroad. And even if a disease linked to travel there is rarely any information about where those afflicted went, what they are, how they behaved, or which vaccinations they had. This shortage of hard facts and figures makes it difficult to give detailed advice to people, information that might even save their lives. A recent leader in British Medical Journal argued. "Travel medicine will emerge as credible disciplines only if the risks encountered by travellers and the relative benefits of public health interventions are well defined in terms of their relative occurrence, distribution and control. Exactly how much money is wasted by poor travel advice. The real figure is anybody's guess, but it could easily- run into millions. Behrens gives one example. Britain spends more than 1 million each year just on cholera vaccines that often don't work and so give people a false sense of security."Information on the prevention and treatment of all forms of diarrhea would be a better priority, he salts. Which of the following statement is not the problem of travel medicine? 查看材料 A．Traditional disciplines are not enough for travel medicine. B．Travel medicine has been colonized by commercial interests. C．The statistics about travellers are hard to obtain. D．People spend much money on poor travel advice.

考题 Everyone knows airline pricing is based on supply and demand. Fares are mores expensive during peak travel seasons like summer and to prime destinations like European capitals. So if a flight to Rome costs more than a flight to Milan you d think that demand for Rome must be higher or supply lower What’s puzzling is that you can pay a high price to a given destination but a dramatically lower price for the exact same flight if you agree to go on to another destination. Take Alitalia to Rome for instance for travel in August A round-trip economy flight directly to Rome leaving JFK at 10:05 p.m on Alitalia 611 on August 5 costs $1,655 when booked on April 30 Compare that to $903 for a round-trip economy ticket to Milan(stopping in Rome)leaving JFK on the exact same Alitalia 611 flight at 10:05 p.m on August 5. So why is Alitalia willing to fly you to Rome for $752 less than it would otherwise plus give you an extra one-and-a-half-hour flight to Milan? Airlines have increased their profitability in recent years by segmenting the market for air travel and charging customers different prices for the same product. In this case the market is segmented based on demand for direct flights. Airlines know most people prefer the shortest route to their destination so they make customers pay up for the privilege of flying direct(They also make it a little more inconvenient if you don’t pay up for a direct flight in order to encourage you to fly direct) When process become so obviously illogical it may be time to why air tickets can’t be transferred or resold just like any other normal product If the airlines are entitled to exploit the free market shouldn’t customers be allowed to do the same thing? According to the passage, prices are normally determined by____A. the relationship between cost and demand B. peak seasons and prime attractions C. the relationship between supply and demand D. travel seasons and destinations

考题单选题Passage1When it comes to airline travel, perhaps nothing has revolutionized the passenger experience more than airline apps. Indeed, they' re becoming so ubiquitous that more than 50 percent of U.S travelers have at least one airline app installed on their smart device, according to travel industry research firm Phocuswright.Maybe that's because apps make travel easier, and often are more functional than a kiosk or even an airline's own website. Passengers report that they' re often more quickly informed of a flight cancellation or gate change than an airline employee. Not all airline apps are created equal, but in general you can use an app to check in for a flight, change seats, and request and pay for an upgrade. Road warriors in particular appreciate mobile boarding passes and the ability to track their flights. Many airlines now offer free onboard streaming entertainment via apps. The Delta Air Lines app even allows users to track their bags, from check-in to carousel, while the Air France app lets passengers download magazines and newspapers from the airline's library 30 hours prior to departure.But what if you are traveling extensively on more than one airline? Global airline alliances have their own apps that allow you to view flights for all member airlines and their affiliates, including code share flights. In general, you can find flight schedules for all member airlines and track member airline flights. Airport information is available, as are details about local weather at the destination. Where's the nearest airport lounge? The app will locate it for you.The Sky Team airline alliance app goes a step further by letting its SkyPriority members (Sky Team Elite Plus members and customers with first and business-class tickets) find out exactly which SkyPriority services-including priority check in and baggage drop off, as well as access to priority security lanes and boarding lanes-are available at individual airports.You' ll find that some alliance app features are available through multiple channels of communication. For example, Sky Team members have formed their own online community by sharing traveler tricks and airport tips accessible through a variety of channels, including the app, Sky Team's website, Facebook page and a dedicated tips site. Sky Team's YouTube page features travel tips from regional celebrities.Just as airlines seem to have conquered social media, another method of communicating with travelers has just arrived. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is the first carrier to sign up for Facebook's Messenger chat app. KLM flyers can automatically receive itineraries, flight updates, check-in notifications, boarding passes and rebook flights and communicate with customer service, all from Facebook Messenger. Messenger for Business was launched so that customers-in this case, passengers-can transact business over the messaging app in a single communication thread. Roughly 80 percent of passengers on planes traveling within the U.S. have the Messenger app installed on their smartphones, according to Facebook.Clearly, mobile apps and social media have transformed our digital lives. Airlines favor apps and other technologies because they get customers out of airport lines and off phone lines. Through their smart devices, travelers now have untethered access to travel information. A few quick taps can supply individuals with information never dreamed possible even a decade ago. And with more people using smartphones as their primary computing device, and as more people own cellphones globally, people expect technology-driven methods of communication and convenience to accelerate. Whether you' re high-tech or not, you must admit that having immediate access to the information you need sure beats getting a busy signal on a toll-free phone line.According to this passage, which of the following apps provides priority services information for priority members?A The Sky Team airline alliance app.B KLM Royal Dutch Airlines app.C Global airline aliance app.D The Delta Air Lines app.

考题单选题Passage 1Every day 25 million U.S. children ride school buses. The safety record for these buses is much better than for passenger cars; but nevertheless, about 10 children are killed each year riding on large school buses, and nearly four times that number are killed outside buses in the loading zones. By and large, however, the nation's school children are transported to and from school safety.Even though the number of school bus casualties is not large, the safety of children is always of intense public concern. While everyone wants to see children transported safely, people are divided about what needs to be done particularly whether seat belts should be mandatory.Proponents of seat belts on school buses-many of them parents and medical organizations argue that seat belts are necessary not only to reduce fatality and injury, but also to teach children lessons about the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A side benefit, they point out, is those seats belts help keep children in their seats, away from the bus driver.Opponents of seat belt installation suggest that children are already well protected by the school buses that adhere to the Nation Highway Traffic Safety Administrations(NHTSA) safety requirements set in 1977. They also believe that many children won't wear seat belts anyway and that may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.A new Research Council report on school bus safety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that may be more effective and less expensive. For example, the study committee suggested that raising seat backs four inches may have the same safety effectiveness as seat belts.The report sponsored by the Department of Transportation at the request of Congress, reviews seat belts extensively while taking a broader look at safety in and around school buses.According to the passage, the school bus is________.A the bus offered by the schoolB the bus that has no difference from the public busC the bus that is driven by the studentsD the bus that is not safe

For example, Sky Team members have formed their own online community by sharing traveler tricks and airport tips accessible through a variety of channels, including the app, Sky Team's website, Facebook page and a dedicated tips site. Sky Team's YouTube page features travel tips from regional celebrities.Just as airlines seem to have conquered social media, another method of communicating with travelers has just arrived. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is the first carrier to sign up for Facebook's Messenger chat app. KLM flyers can automatically receive itineraries, flight updates, check-in notifications, boarding passes and rebook flights and communicate with customer service, all from Facebook Messenger. Messenger for Business was launched so that customers-in this case, passengers-can transact business over the messaging app in a single communication thread. Roughly 80 percent of passengers on planes traveling within the U.S. have the Messenger app installed on their smartphones, according to Facebook.Clearly, mobile apps and social media have transformed our digital lives. Airlines favor apps and other technologies because they get customers out of airport lines and off phone lines. Through their smart devices, travelers now have untethered access to travel information. A few quick taps can supply individuals with information never dreamed possible even a decade ago. And with more people using smartphones as their primary computing device, and as more people own cellphones globally, people expect technology-driven methods of communication and convenience to accelerate. Whether you' re high-tech or not, you must admit that having immediate access to the information you need sure beats getting a busy signal on a toll-free phone line.What makes mobile apps appealing to travelers according to the last paragraph？A Realization of their unfulfilled dreams.B A better service via computing devices.C An unoccupied signal on the phone line.D Immediate access to the needed information.
