• 10．Summertime，i.e.vacation season，is quickly approaching.And whether your ideal getaway is R&R on the beach，outdoor adventuring，or exploring a new city，it pays to plan.
     I'd love to get away.How do I save for a vacation？
     You're not aljye.ai.One study says 71% of Americans are planning to take a trip for leisure in 2022.And they're planning on spending 29% more than they did pre-pandemic in 2019.But you don't have to go broke （身无分文） to get a break.Before you even start planning your travel，here's how to make the trip you've been waiting for a reality.
  • Make a sinking fund.These funds are where you set aside money with an intention to spend it on a big goal.
  • Timing is everything.Research the cheapest places to go when the temperature rises，and plan accordingly.You'll also get more bang for your buck by checking out destinations with a favorable exchange rate.For somewhere further east，your dollars will go far in Thailand or the Philippines.
  • Book smart.Renting a home is often a better deal than booking a hotel.Not only will you save on the price tag，but you can cook instead of eating out for every meal.
     How do I keep saving while I'm on vacation？
     True story：travel doesn't feel like real life，so it's easier to splurge （挥霍）.And if you're visiting a popular tourist location，everything costs more.Here's how to see the sights without losing sight of your budget.
  • Set a daily spending limit and track what you buy to avoid overdoing it.Using cash or a prepaid debit card instead of a credit card can also help.
  • Food is a money vampire.If you have access to a kitchen where you're staying，make breakfast，pack lunch，and cook dinner when you can.If not，hit up a supermarket or farmer's market for an easy，cheap breakfast.And when you do eat out，go for lunch or appetizers，where the menu items tend to be less expensive.
  
  （1）According to the passage，which of the following may help make your dream trip a reality？

  
  A．Preparing enough fast food.
  B．Borrowing money from friends.
  C．Researching the cheapest places to go.
  D．Carrying credit cards from different banks.
  （2）To keep saving while on vacation，you'd better

  .
  A．go out for meals
  B．avoid using cash
  C．set a daily spending limit
  D．visit popular tourist locations
  （3）What's the purpose of the passage？

  
  A．To help travellers save money.
  B．To report some survey results.
  C．To advertise some tourist attractions.
  D．To compare different travel plans.

阅读表达（共1小题； 每小题8分， 共8分）阅读下面的短文和问题，根据短文内容，在相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思清楚，结构正确，书写工整。

• 30．Laughing Matters Making people laugh connects us to one another.But what are laughing matters related to？For me，they are about personal life stories and experiences.Life will always change，and therefore laughing matters vary accordingly.While we may not have the same experiences，everyone can relate to observations on life，family，and the varieties of behavior we all encounter every day as we go about life.
      Laughing matters are dedicated to making laughter a part of daily life and building a healthier and less stressful outlook.It can end tense sjye.aiuations.It always breaks the ice and brings people together.At home，it brings the family closer.A friend once told me how his dad collected jokes in a box and wrote them down on cards so he wouldn't forget them and then told jokes at the dinner table.I could relate to that.My older brother used to bring home joke books and read them to me when I was 10 or 11 years old，which had a great impact on me.
      Great comedians view life in different ways.Some of them can tell a relatable story about life and it will be funny，reminding the audience of similar situations and getting huge laughs.Others will look at a similar observation in life and tell a very different story from a very different angle with a very different delivery.The best of them keep working it out until they find the humor that suits them and strikes the right string and，hopefully，the laughter string of an audience.
      People will always relate to the human story with all its challenges.One good thing about life is that it changes and develops.Life itself never gets old and is always feeding a laugh.As a result，comedians are constantly pushing the envelope because what the previous generation found funny becomes foreign to the new generation.As comedy adjusts to life changes，the edge keeps moving as well.That's what time does to comedy.And now with a whole new generation the challenge is the same.Humorists must keep pushing that envelope，and we will.
  （1）For the author，what are laughing matters about？ （不多于8个单词）

  
  （2）How can the best comedians make people laugh？ （不多于11个单词）

  
  （3）Why does comedy need to change？ （不多于13个单词）

  
  （4）Based on your personal experience，does humor help you in your life？Why or why not？ （单词数不限）
