But now one flight comparison website, which analysed 7.5 billion airfares on its top 100 routes worldwide, believes it has found the answer.According to the research by momondo.co.uk, the ideal time to book a flight is 53 days in advance, a move that may save an average of 33% on the normal fare. For example, a flight from London to Lisbon, when booked 52 days in advance, costs on average 209compared to the average price of 287.Cheaper fares also depend on the time of the flight. Evening departures between 6pm and midnight are typically cheaper, while Tuesday is generally the cheapest day to fly. As for the most expensive, fares are at their costliest three days before departure, while Friday is normally the most expensive day to take to the air. It is also suggested that travellers should avoid afternoon flights if they are looking to save money.In general, it pays to book flights two months in advance, says Momondo spokesman Lasse Skole Hansen. We found these trends consistent across the board, so bargain hunters should consider flying at night and on a Tuesday, if they want to save money on their travels.Momondos research is consistent with previous studies into the age-old travellers dilemma of when to book. In January Skyscanner published the results of a three-year study, which found that on average five weeks in advance is the best time to find the cheapest fares.However, Skyscanner also found this varies according to destinations. The cheapest flights to Greece, for example, were found to be available just three weeks ahead of departure.The new study by momondo.co.uk coincides with their launch of an interactive tool, Flight Insight, which allows travellers to assess the best time, day and season to travel.（1）The research mentioned in the article based its information on _. A . interviews with travellersB . discussions with travel agentsC . studying of ticket price listsD . inspections of national airports（2）Which of the following is NOT discussed as a factor affecting airplane ticket prices? A . Booking time.B . Flight day.C . Flight time.D . Flight company.（3）According to the information in the passage which of the following tickets would be the most expensive? A . A ticket booked three days in advanced for a Friday afternoon flight.B . A ticket booked one day ahead for a Friday afternoon flight.C . Tuesday morning ticket booked two months in advance.D . A ticket for a Friday flight during the summer holiday.（4）If the advertised price for a plane ticket from London to Paris tomorrow was 90 pound, how much would the buyer expect to pay if he booked the ticket 52 days earlier? A . 30 pounds.B . 60 pounds.C . 90 pounds.D . 120 pounds.（5）What is the purpose of the article? A . To explain why flight price vary.B . To inform readers how to travel cheaply.C . To tell readers where to buy cheap tickets.D . To identify which airlines offer the best value tickets.15. （8分）阅读理解 One of the most famous buildings in the United States is Carnegie Hall, the home of classical and popular music concerts in New York. Carnegie Hall is known not just for its beauty and history, but also for its amazing sound. It has been said that the hall itself is an instrument. It takes the music and makes it larger than life. Carnegie Hall is named after Andrew Carnegie, who paid for its construction. He was a wealthy man who also gave a lot of money to schools and public libraries. Construction on Carnegie Hall began in 1890 and the official opening night was on May 5, 1891.The hall was owned by the Carnegie family until 1924 when it was sold to Robert E. Simon. The building became very old and in 1960, the new owner made plans to destroy it and build an office block. Isaac Stem led a group of people who fought to save Carnegie Hall and finally, the city of New York bought it for $5 million. It was then fixed up between 1983 and 1995.In 1986, people realized that Carnegie Hall had never kept proper records of its history. Advertisements and stories in newspapers about how Carnegie Hall needed help to recover its history led people to send in old concert programmes and information from all over the world. Over 12,000 concert programmes were received and with these it was possible to make a proper record of Carnegie Halls concert history.Because the best and most famous musicians of all time have played at Carnegie Hall, it is the dream of most musicians who want to be great to play there. This has led to a very old joke which is now part of Carnegie Halls history. Question: How do I get to Carnegie Hall? Answer: Practise, practise, practise.（1）What do music lovers expect in Carnegie Hall? A . Musical concerts presented by first class performers.B . Exhibits and photographs of historical events.C .

The empty lot, which is owned by a 1ocal bank, was filled with grass and poison ivy(毒葛). As a project for the schools biohealth(生物健康) class, eight students decided to turn the empty lot into a space that will improve the mental(心里的) and emotional(情感的) health of people who live near it.They first came up with a design, did research and created 3D models of their plans. Ideas were then presented and the school leaders picked the winning plans. Finally, the students brought those plans to life.Now when you walk into the lot, you can see a wood walkway leading to a purple iron bench. A few beautiful plants are already in the ground. There is also a hopscotch(跳房子游戏) board that is painted bright blue. A wall painting with the words Love and Peace has taken shape on a back fence, decorated with the students handprints. The rest of the fence was painted grey to cover plain wood.The students said they painted the bench purple because they found that purple has a comforting feeling for people. They thought kids could go there and sit together, communicate with each other in peace and stay out of trouble.As for the hopscotch board, it was set up for a group of eight to ten school-age kids who lived in the neighborhood but had nowhere to play.It gives the neighborhood a little hope and a little beauty, said Lyle Jenkins, a member of the Neighborhood N
