Some people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one of them.Take my family’s last vacation.It was my six-year-old son’s winter break form school, and we were
heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day.I had meetings in New York,So I had to get back.But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay.I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight.Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to “earn” more Delta Dollars.Our total take: $1,600.Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either.But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar.And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing(揭露)the worst tricks.I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade.I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide.And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth.I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut.It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice.And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.Quality lasts.56.Why did Delta give the author's family credits?

It’s hard to find a star shining brighter in Nashville than Kenny Chesney.Since he took off 15 years ago, this country musician has sold more than 25 million albums, has had sixteen No.1 hits, won countless awards and had a sea of loyal fans who have made him the biggest North American concert-ticket seller.Kenny is certainly at the height of his career as he releases his Greatest Hits II album this week.It’s a collection of songs in which he says each takes him to a different place or event in his life.The most personal is the song I’m Alive, Kenny tells The Boot.“Most of the songs on this record are really fun, but I wrote I’m Alive after my breakup with Renee.I woke up one day and realized, even though I had gone through this and didn’t feel good about it, my life still belongs to me.I’m alive;I get to make music;I’ve got a lot of great friends.That’s the message of the song.”
Kenny insists that the song selection for Greatest Hits II is not formulaic(刻板的).In addition to the hits that climbed the country charts, the singer also wanted to include some songs unknown
to his fans that reflected his life and career path.“I didn’t want it to be all hits;I wanted it to be a second chapter of my life in music,” he explains.“So the song Beas You Are really does that for me.”
Kenny recently celebrated his 41st birthday, but the number of candles on the cake didn’t depress him a bit, thanks to what he loves so deeply.“I still feel like I’m 18,”he says.“Living life the way you do on the road, it definitely keeps you feeling that way.And I think people that have music in their life are a lot better off(富有)and healthier than people that don’t.I’ve been very content to have not just a little bit of music in my life, but a whole lot of music.It drives my life.”
60.Kenny Chesney refers to one of his songs I’m Alive for the purpose of _________.A.telling his fans about his breakup with his girlfriend
B.inspiring his fans with confidence in life
C.calling on people to make music like him
D.advertising his new album to increase sales
61.We can learn from the passage that Kenny Chesney ______.A.is a star not only in Nashville, but also around the world
B.won few awards for his work in country music
C.was at his most successful when Greatest Hits II was released
D.selected nothing but big hits for Greatest Hits II
62.What is the relationship between music and life, according to Kenny Chesney?
A.Music is a way of earning a lot of money.B.Music always makes people feel they are 18.C.Music gives life power, besides wealth and health.D.Music is the most important part of everyone’s life.【参考答案】

It’s hard to find a star shining brighter in Nashville than Kenny Chesney.Since he took off 15 years ago, this country musician has sold more than 25 million albums, has had sixteen No.1 hits, won countless awards and had a sea of loyal fans who have made him the biggest North American concert-ticket seller.Kenny is certainly at the height of his career as he releases his Greatest Hits II album this week.It’s a collection of songs in which he says each takes him to a different place or event in his life.The most personal is the song I’m Alive, Kenny tells The Boot.“Most of the songs on this
record are really fun, but I wrote I’m Alive after my breakup with Renee.I woke up one day and realized, even though I had gone through this and didn’t feel good about it, my life still belongs to me.I’m alive;I get to make music;I’ve got a lot of great friends.That’s the message of the song.”
Kenny insists that the song selection for Greatest Hits II is not formulaic(刻板的).In addition to the hits that climbed the country charts, the singer also wanted to include some songs unknown to his fans that reflected his life and career path.“I didn’t want it to be all hits;I wanted it to be a second chapter of my life in music,” he explains.“So the song Beas You Are really does that for me.”
Kenny recently celebrated his 41st birthday, but the number of candles on the cake didn’t depress him a bit, thanks to what he loves so deeply.“I still feel like I’m 18,”he says.“Living life the way you do on the road, it definitely keeps you feeling that way.And I think people that have music in their life are a lot better off(富有)and healthier than people that don’t.I’ve been very content to have not just a little bit of music in my life, but a whole lot of music.It drives my life.”
60.Kenny Chesney refers to one of his songs I’m Alive for the purpose of _________.A.telling his fans about his breakup with his girlfriend
B.inspiring his fans with confidence in life
C.calling on people to make music like him
D.advertising his new album to increase sales
61.We can learn from the passage that Kenny Chesney ______.A.is a star not only in Nashville, but also around the world
B.won few awards for his work in country music
C.was at his most successful when Greatest Hits II was released
D.selected nothing but big hits for Greatest Hits II
62.What is the relationship between music and life, according to Kenny Chesney?
A.Music is a way of earning a lot of money.B.Music always makes people feel they are 18.C.Music gives life power, besides wealth and health.D.Music is the most important part of everyone’s life.【参考答案】

Some people will do just about anything to save money.And I am one of them.Take my family’s last vacation.It was my six-year-old son’s winter break form school, and we were
heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day.I had meetings in New York,So I had to get back.But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay.I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight.Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to “earn” more Delta Dollars.Our total take: $1,600.Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either.But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar.And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing(揭露)the worst tricks.I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade.I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide.And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth.I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut.It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice.And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture.Quality lasts.56.Why did Delta give the author's family credits?
