(b)i was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last friday. the advertisement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box in richland hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. since i work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time i could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break. unfortunately, the theatre is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and richland hills is not very good. but if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. last monday, i stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for the bus. by the time i saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip. so i gave up and went back to the office. the same thing happened on tuesday, and again the next day. on thursday, my luck changed. i got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes. when i got there, however, i found a long line of people at the office. i heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. realizing i would not have enough time to wait in line, i caught the next bus and headed back across the town. by friday i realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi. it was expensive, but i felt it would be worth it to hear the concert. the trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. when i got to the theatre, i was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. the reason, however, i quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets. 60. he tried to go to the theatre every day but managed to get there only _. a. once b. twice c. three times d. four times61. it can be learnt from the passage that taking a taxi to the theatre will save the writer at least _than going by busa. forty-five minutes b. ten minutesc. just twenty minutes d. over an hour62. the underlined word relieved may best be replaced by _. a. pleased b. sorry c. puzzled d. surprised63. the writer mainly shows us his_. a. complaints of the public transportation (交通) b. anger for buying the ticketc. efforts to buy the ticket d. disappointment at the concert(c)saving money is easy when you dont have anything to spend it on, but what happens when things come suddenly that demand some of your hard-earned money? these are called expenses (开销).chances are, most of your basic living expenses food, shelter, clothing, medical care are covered by your family. but perhaps you and your family have agreed that youll pay for certain other expenses out of your own money, such as cell phone bills, after-school snacks, jewelry, or club fees (费用). expenses that happen regularly, like every week or month, are called “fixed” expenses. the good news is that because you know when these expenses are coming, you can plan for them. but life is full of surprises, and sometimes these surprises turn into expenses, too. you might have an emergency like fixing a flat tire on your bike, or something unusual like the class trip to six flags. these are called “unexpected” expenses and if you are smart with your money, youll plan for these as well.heres a secret when it comes to saving money: if you think of it as a regular expense, itll be easier to put a certain amount aside. tell yourself that the $20.00 you are trying to save up every month is something you must do, and theres no getting around it. what kinds of fixed expenses do you have?
