7.Are you still worried about overcharging for your luggage over the weight limit?An"Airport Jacket"containing up to 15kg luggage is designed to help frequent flyers bypass(绕过)airport baggage queues,reduce baggage fees and really lower the risk of lost luggage.
"With airlines beginning to charge for carry-on baggage as well as severely limiting 10aggage allowances for the low fare economy traveler,my partner and I have designed a jacket that can wear your laptop,tablet,two pairs of shoes,a pair of jeans,five T-shirts,a jumper and a camera,"designer Claire Murphy explains."It totals 14 deep pockets,including 8 pockets at hip length,11 pockets at three-quarter length and 14 pockets at full length."
Claire and Benke Murphy came up with the idea while traveling home with their newborn child.They had so much extra carry-on luggage that the airline tried to charge them $ 140 for it,more than the cost of their tickets.So they had to put clothes,chargers,diapers and toys into their pockets,until just over the weight limit.They escaped the tax,but everything sticking out of their pocket saw a pretty uncomfortable plane ride.
However,people have been raising questions about the usefulness of the Airport Jacket,especially the trouble of going through security checkpoints.They are arguing that having to take all out and then putting them back into the pockets is not worth the few tens of dollars you save on a checked luggage.
But Benke claims that walking through airport security is not an issue as long as you follow guidelines for carry-on luggage."It only needs to be worn when checking in and at the boarding gate.What's more,Airport security is not looking at how you store your luggage but checking its contents."
Its makers are currently running a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter,trying to raise  AU100,000.Butthey'veonlyraised AU3,675 so far,although they still have 37 days to go,so it's still hopeful And even if this fails,they may still find a way to get it to market.

32.What's the least possible benefit of using the Airport Jacket?D
A.it may cut down on the luggage fees.
B.it may decrease the risk of losing luggage.
C.it may save the time of passing long queues.
D.it can guarantee you a comfortable flight service.
33.What does the paragraph 3 mainly discuss about?C
A.how much luggage the couple carried
B.how luckily the couple avoided overcharging
C.how the designers got their inspiration
D.how painful the couple's flying experience was
34.What can we infer from this passage?B
A.The pockets of the'Airport Jacket have 28 in total.
B.Not all regard the Airport Jacket as a perfect invention.
C.Crowdfunding is the best way to collect money you need.
D.Airports now begin to limit the number of economy travelers.
35.What will the author probably mention in the next paragraph?B
A.Their kinds of anxiety and fear facing failure.
B.Their possible measures to market their product.
C.Their sharp and powerful attack against those opposed.
D.Their attempts to improve and enlarge the production capacity.

17.A group of people from Denmark have formed the B-Society.According to them,human beings are divided into types:A-People,and B-People.A-People have no problem getting up in the morning,and operate much better earlier in the day.However,B-people are better later in the day."I'm useless early in the morning,"says one of the members of the B-Society."All I can do is drink coffee,and stare into space.People used to get up early because they had to feed the animals.But I haven't got any cows or chickens,so I can sleep late,"She adds.Since the society was set up,the B-Society has welcomed several thousand members.
Right now,the B-Society is fighting hard for businesses to join its B-certification (证明) list.Companies that are"B-certified"basically give their employees the opportunity to come in when they want.In some companies,employees arrive at any time up to 3:30pm---each to their own rhythm (节奏).
And it is not just businesses that are benefiting from this.Teenagers who can't get out of bed in the morning,and parents who never quite get the kids to school on time,can now benefit from B-classes.From next year,a school in Copenhagen will offer classes which start later in the day (at 10instead of eight).And even the government seems to like the idea.
The B-Society was founded by Camilla Kring,a professor from the University of Copenhagen.On her website,she says,"When B-people's work rhythms are considered at the work place,their productivity (生产力) and quality of life is increased,which can increase productivity for the entire organization."
She adds that,"B-Society will create a new daily rhythm in schools and other institutions (机构) as an alternative to the current rhythm of‘early at work and early at home'.We are working for the establishment of kindergartens,primary and secondary schools as well as universities that open between 10am and 8pm."
Would you like to work for a B-certified company?

1.According to the text,who belong to the B-Society?A
A.Late risers.
B.Businessmen.
C.Animal lovers.
D.Sleep experts.
2.In B-certified companies,employees canD.
A.get more working opportunities
B.join any other companies
C.work on any days they choose    
D.go to work at any time of a day
3.In Camilla Kring's opinion,B-peopleC.
A.are more hard-working than A-people
B.have a better quality of life than A-people
C.are more productive if given more freedom
D.like the rhythm of"early at work,early at home"
4.The author's purpose in writing this text is toC.
A.stress the importance of getting up early
B.express his attitude towards the B-Society
C.introduce a group having a special daily rhythm
D.call on people to work for B-certified companies.

12.Think Positive and Feel Positive
When you're in a stressful situation,are you confident or unsafe?Do you react positively or negatively?
(71)A  A study by researchers at the University of Notre Dame found that negative thinking,and depression coming from it,can be catching in certain circumstances.
For example,the researchers studied 103 freshman college roommates who'd been paired casually.(72)E     Specifically,the researchers measured the subject's likelihood to see negative events as a reflection of their abilities and disadvantages.
After only six months,it became clear that thinking patterns and styles can be catching.(73)D
And students paired with more positive thinking roommates were more likely to become more positive in their thinking and report less depression.
(74)B   So they might be particularly accessible to adopting the thought and behavior patterns of people around them-perhaps more so than people in less intense situations at other stages of life.
But maybe not.Other research has shown that,in general,people are affected by how those around them think.(75)F  

A.The answer may depend in part on whom you're around.
B.Now college freshman are in a unique,life changing environment.
C.However,think positive and feel positive is quite important for college students.
D.Students paired with a negative-thinking roommate"caught"that style and became more depressed themselves.
E.They measured each roommate's cognitive weakness,or tendency to give in to negative thinking and depression.
F.So surrounding a negative,depressed person with people who think positively could be a powerful form of treatment.
G.But what was to the researchers'embarrassment was that the subjects never talked with each and stayed apart from each other for most of the time.
