Round the world tickets (RTWs)

These usually last a year and let you go to several destinations. These may be some restrictions（限制）on where you can go by air so it’s important to check out the terms and conditions of each deal and decide which one suits you best. A typical RTW for (usually) less than ₤1000 would be: London―Toronto―Honolulu―Fiji―Sydney―Hong Kong―London. You can get a preset RTW or make one up to yourself―this can be cheaper in some cases.

?Multi-stopover tickets

If you don’t want to go around the globe but want to see several different places, multi-stopover tickets can let you make several stopovers（中途停留）. For instance, your route could be: London―Singapore―Sydney―Bombay―London. Or it could be a lot more complicated with lots of flights within Australia for instance.

?Open jaw tickets

If you want to go to one destination by air and then travel overland and come back from another destination by air, you can buy an open jaw ticket. For instance, your route could be: London―Cairo―Nairobi―London (Traveling between Cairo and Nairobi by land).

?Air passes

If you want to travel around within one country or even one area you can buy air passes to cover one of the followings: the USA, Africa, Australia, India, the Far East, the Caribbean, South America and the Pacific. In some cases you may have to buy the air pass before you get to the country or area you want to travel in.

Short air passes last a week. Longer ones can last up to 2 months. Costs vary but start ₤150. Ask your travel agent for details.

?Spur legs

Spur legs let you go off on a detour（迂回路）on your way to your final destination. For example you might visit China on your way to Australia.

Their round bodies, round flat noses and large ears often remind us of bears every time we see koalas. Probably that’s why these animals are often referred to as koala bears. Koalas are natives of Australia. However, they aren’t found all over the continent. The habitat of koala bears  is eastern regions of Australia and South Australia.
Koalas are found where there are enough forests of eucalyptus(桉樹) trees. The association of koalas and eucalyptus trees is due to the fact that these animals feed on the leaves of eucalyptus trees. But that’s not all. In addition, the trees also serve as the homes of the koalas.
Koalas grow around 27 to 36 inches tall and weigh 5 to 9 kilograms on average. Male kaolas are larger than the females. Life can stretch up to 17 years.
Like many other animals, the habitat of koala bears is fast decreasing due to deforestation and quick urbanization(都市化). However, efforts by some scientists and animal lovers have successfully introduced these creatures back in certain parts of Australia.

    The round-the-clock(24小時不斷的)availability that cell phone have brought to people’s lives may be taking a toll on family life，a new study suggests．The study，which followed more than 1，300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone throughout the study period were more likely to report negative “spillover’’ between work and home life—and，in turn, less satisfaction with their family life.

    Spillover essentially(本質(zhì)上)means that the line between work and home begins to become unclear．Work life may invade home life when a．parent is taking job—related calIs at home，for instance--or family issues may start to take up work time．For example，a child may call mom at work，telling her "microwave exploded” explained Noelle Chesley，an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Wisconsin—Milwaukee and the author of the study. The problem with cell phones seems to be that they are allowing for ever more spillover between work and home．    ‘

    This may be especially true for working women，the study found. Among men，consistent use of mobile phones seemed to allow more work issues to creep (潛入)into family time．But for women，the spillover tended to go in both directions being “connected” meant that work cut into home time，and family issues came：into work life． 

    Cell phones seem to be opening more lines for stressful exchanges among family

members．But there may be ways to control the spillover，according to Chesley．Empoyers, she said，could look at their policies on contacting employees after hours to make sure their expectations are “reasonable”．For their part，employees could decide that cell phones go off during family time, Chesley said. 

What does the underlined phrase “taking a toll on’’probably mean in Paragraph 1?

   A. Explaining.   B. Protecting.   C. Extending       D. Damaging.

What is the purpose of offering the example “microwave exploded” in Paragraph 2?

  A．To show the microwave is of poor quality.

  B．To indicate how dependent the child is.

  C．To indicate family issues affect work hours.

  D．To show work time creeps into family life

As a result of negative“spillover”，people will feel _____.

  A．1ess satisfied with their family life．

  B．1ess satisfied with their work．

C．a(chǎn)ngry with their troublesome children·

  D．unwilling to get married at an early age．
