is shown with a bloody face after he was forced off an overbooked flight on april 9, 2017, making the already troubled airline earn more bad press.overbooking on flights happens all the time. empty seats cost airlines money, so they offset(抵消) the number of passengers who miss flights by selling several more tickets. in this case, the problem arose because united(美联航) decided at the last minute to fly four employees to a connection point and needed four passengers to make way for them.normally, when theres an overbooking issue, airlines will offer compensation to the passengers who are willing to take a later flight. at first, they were offered $400, a hotel room for the night, and a flight the following afternoon. when no one took the offer, the amount was upped to $800. still no volunteers. so a manager boarded the flight and informed passengers that four people would be selected to leave the flight.a couple who were selected agreed to leave the plane voluntarily. however, a man refused, saying he was a doctor and had to see patients in the morning. an airline manager told him that security would be called if he did not leave. then, security officers came to speak to him. their conversation ended with the man being yanked(猛拉) from his seat onto the floor and dragged off, blood visible on his face.this incident caused a stir in public. many criticized uniteds racism and cruelty. some even called for a boycott of the airline. the company is facing increasing pressure around the world. united is also suffering from broader worries among investors about us airline performance.28. what can we learn about overbooking on flights?a. it always causes problems. b. it makes more money.c. it rarely occurs. d. its for employees.29. what do airlines usually do first when theres an overbooking issue?a. require the last few passengers not to go aboard.b. find some volunteers and offer them compensation.c. call the security and force some passengers to leave.d. select some passengers randomly and ask them to leave.30. why did the man refuse to leave the plane?a. he was badly injured and was bleeding.b. he was unsatisfied with the compensation.c. he was threatened by the security officers.d. he had got an appointment the next day.31. what can we infer from the last paragraph?a. the companys reputation is greatly injured.b. the company will definitely lose many investors.c. the passenger was cruelly treated on account of his race.d. no passengers will take uniteds flights.dnowadays, especially in china, everything seems to favor social intercourse, such as gatherings of friends, ktv, group travel, dining together, playing cards and mahjong, plus the chinese-style“street-crossing group”. back home, discussions can still beboisterouslycarried on within the“circle of friends”of wechat.however, these scenes cannot always ease a sense of loneliness. zhu ziqing, a well-known professor of tsinghua university, sighed with emotion:“my loneliness increases as scene becomes much busier.”one popular song today is also called“a lonely man in crowds”. actually, engaging in social intercourse requires ability, while being alone involves the whole character.these days, it is not easy to calm down totally and return to ones true self. will power, intellect and discipline are required? einstein said:“it is not your working time but your spare time that determines the possibility of whether you will be successful or not.”the“spare time”he referred to could be taken as“spending time by yourself”.lonely life could be either dull, boring and tasteless or abundant, interesting and colorful, depending on ones quality, ambition and inspiration.just as the body constantly requires energy, the mind and soul also demand unceasing inputs. however, information, processed and integrated(融入)into knowledge, thoughts and feelings, instead of bustle(忙碌)seems to be the right condition. successful careers in all walks of life worldwide have proved that“the soul grows in peace and talent is nurtured in loneliness”. in a sense, it may be reasonable to say that“happiness tends to be shallow while loneliness involves profundity”.man, in fact, needs loneliness more than happy time, and only abundant loneliness can produce quality happiness.32. which of the following can replace the underlined word“boisterously”in paragraph 1?a. surprisingly b. happilyc. peacefully d. busily 33. what can we conclude from the second paragraph?a. being alone makes people depressed.b. social communication involves more individual character.c. one may feel lonely even when surrounded by people.d. we should attend social intercourse to decrease our loneliness.34. what can we know from einsteins words?a. you are more likely to be successful if you spend all your time by yourself.b. you should exercise more if you want to keep your minds sharp.c. you will not become successful if you join in more social intercourse.d. you will be more successful if you can make your lonely time meaningful.35. which may be the best title for this passage?a. happiness and loneliness b. practice your social abilityc. the secret of successd. live on
