20.However wealthy we may be,we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want.Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost,which simply refers to whether someone's time or money could be better spent on something else.
Every hour of our time has a value.For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another,or be sleeping or watching a film.Each of these options has a different opportunity cost-namely,what they cost us in missed opportunities.
Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium.Why not,you might reason,watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends?This-the alternative use of your cash and time-is the opportunity cost.
For economists,every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo-in terms of money and enjoyment-in order to take it up.By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on,you ought to be able to make better-informed,more reasonable decisions.Consider that most famous economic rule of all:there's no such thing as a free lunch.Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free,the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.
Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging:imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable.Yet,in a sense it's human nature to do precisely that-we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.
In the business world,a popular phrase is"value for money."People want their cash to go as far as possible.However,another is fast obtaining an advantage:"value for time."The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something,so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time.By reading this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities,such as sleeping and eating.In return,however,this passage will help you to think like an economist,closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.

58.According to the passage,the concept of"opportunity cost"is applied toD.
A.making more money 
B.taking more opportunities
C.reducing missed opportunities 
D.weighing the choice of opportunities
59.The"leftover…time"in Paragraph 3probably refers to the timeC.
A.spared for watching the match at home 
B.taken to have dinner with friends
C.spent on the way to and from the match 
D.saved from not going to watch the match
60.What are forgone opportunitiesB?
A.Opportunities you forget in decision-making.
B.Opportunities you give up for better ones.
C.Opportunities you miss accidentally.
D.Opportunities you make up for.
17.(Reuters)-A Malaysia Airlines flight carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew was presumed to have crashed off the Vietnamese coast on Saturday,and European officials said two people on board were using false identities.
There were no reports of bad weather and no sign of why the Boeing 777-200ER would have vanished from radar screens about an hour after it took off from Kuala Lumpur for Beijing.
"We are not ruling out any possibilities,"Malaysia Airlines CEO Ahmad Jauhari Yahya told a news conference.
By the early hours of Sunday,there were no confirmed signs of the plane or any wreckage,well over 24 hours after it went missing.Operations will continue through the night,officials said.
There were no indications of sabotage (蓄意破坏) nor claims of an attack.But the passenger list issued by the airline included the names of two Europeans-Austrian Christian Kozel and Italian Luigi Maraldi-who,according to their foreign ministries,were not in fact on the plane.
A foreign ministry spokesman in Vienna said:"Our embassy got the information that there was an Austrian on board.That was the passenger list from Malaysia Airlines.Our system came back with a note that this is a stolen passport."
Austrian police had found the man safe at home.The passport was stolen two years ago while he was travelling in Thailand,the spokesman said.
The foreign ministry in Rome said no Italian was on the plane either,despite the inclusion of Maraldi's name on the list.His mother,Renata Lucchi,told Reuters his passport was lost,presumed stolen,in Thailand in 2013.
U.S.and European security officials said that there was no proof of any terrorist link and there could be other explanations for the use of stolen passports.

D.His passport was lost in Thailand.

3.One might expect that the ever-growing demands of the tourist trade would bring nothing but.good for the countries that receive the holiday-makers.Indeed,a rosy picture is painted for the long-term future of the holiday industry.Every month sees the building of a new hotel somewhere,and every month another rock-bound Pacific island is advertised as the'last paradise(天堂) on earth'.
  However,the scale and speed of this growth seem set to destroy the very things tourists want to enjoy.In those countries where there was a rush to make quick money out of sea-side holidays,over-crowded beaches and the concrete jungles of endless hotels have begun to lose their appeal.
  Those countries with little experience of tourism can suffer most.In recent years,Nepal set out to attract foreign visitors to fund developments in health and education.Its forests,full of wildlife and rare flowers,were offered to tourists as one more untouched paradise.In fact,the nature all too soon felt the effects of thousands of holiday-makers traveling through the forest land.Ancient tacks became major routes for the walkers,with the consequent exploitation of precious trees and plants.
  Not only the environment of a country can suffer from the sudden growth of tourism.The people as well rapidly feel its effects.Farmland makes way for hotels,roads and airports; the old way of life goes.The one-time farmer is now the servant of some multi-national organization; he is no longer his own master.Once it was his back that bore the pain; now it is his smile that is exploited.No doubt he wonders whether he wasn't happier in his village working his own land.
  Thankfully,the tourist industry is waking up to the responsibilities it has towards those countries that receive its customers.The protection of wildlife and the creation of national parks go hand in hand with tourist development and in fact obtain financial support form tourist companies.At the same time,tourists are being encouraged to respect not only the countryside they visit but also its people.
  The way tourism is handled in the next ten years will decide its fate and that of the countries we all want to visit.Their needs and problems are more important than those of the tourist companies.Increased understanding in planning world-wide tourism can preserve the market for these companies.If not,in a few years'time the very things that attract tourists now may well have been destroyed.

A.The Pacific island is a paradise.B.The Pacific island is worth visiting.
C.The advertisement is not convincing.D.The advertisement is not impressive

C.it develops well in health and education.D.it suffers from the heavy flow of tourists.
73.What can we learn about the farmers from Paragraph 4?B.
A.They are happy to work their own lands.
B.They have to please the tourists for a living.
