A woman was caught trying to get her boyfriend out of Puente Ayala prison by packing him in a large suitcase. They almost got away with it, but guards became suspicious after seeing the woman struggling with the suitcase.

25-year-old Souda arrived at the Puente Ayala prison in Barcelona, Venezuela, last weeks, to visit her boyfriend, Jose Antonio, who was serving a sentence of 9 years and 8 months for stealing cars. She had brought their six-year-old daughter and a large pink suitcase, which is common for an overnight stay by family members in South American prison. Little did the guards know that Souda and Jose Antoni were planning to leave the prison together the next day, as a big happy family.

Their plan seemed to go smoothly as the woman carrying the bright pink baggage didn’t attract the guards’ attention, but it failed when they finally noticed the short woman struggling to pull the seemingly light suitcase out of the door. They stopped Souda and asked her to open the suitcase so they could check its items. Left with no choice but to meet the guards’ demand, the woman opened the suitcase to show young Jose Antonio looking like a professional contortionist (专业柔术演员)and covered with different clothing items.

Puente Ayala guards sent the car thief back to the prison. Souda has been caught by guards and is waiting for official charges, and the couple’s six-year-old daughter, Mary, has been placed in the care of social services.

If only Souda had gone to the gym to improve her strength before going through escaping from prison with her lover, things might have gone differently.

1.The underlined word “suspicious” in Paragraph 1 can be best replaced by_____.

A. pleased B. doubtful

C. worried D. violent

2.Where did Souda put her husband while leaving the prison?

A. In a car. B. In a box

C. In a suitcase. D. In a bag

3.Mary lives in the care of social services because______.

B. her parents’ marriage has ended

C. her parents are both caught by guards

D. her mother is busy building up her body

4.What can we learn from the text?

A. Souda and her daughter stayed in the prison for a night

B. Souda has escaped from punishment by law

C. Jose Antonio made a living by selling cars once

D. Jose Antonio was a professional contortionist.

How to Save More and Spend Less

There are many simple ways to save more money without feeling the pain. You can even turn it into a challenge or a game to make it more enjoyable.

1.

You went shopping and now your pocket is heavy with loose change. Count it, keep what you might need for bus tickets and put the rest in a piggy bank. After two months, empty the piggy bank and deposit(存储) the amount in your saving account.

Give up your expensive habits.

Cut down on the beer and cigarettes. Not only will this keep you healthier, but it’ll let you save up on unwanted expenses. 2. If you don’t stop now, you’ll end up paying a lot more for them anyway.

Visit ATMs less often.

Reducing the times you use the ATM can help you cut down on your costs. 3. By doing so you won’t have to make unnecessary withdrawals(取款).

Use cash.

Every time you use your credit card or cellphone to pay for something, you’re losing track of exactly how much you’ re spending. If you’re buying something, buy it with cash. This will give you a clearer idea of how much you’re actually spending. 4.

Carry your own bag when shopping.

With the government taking measures to reduce plastic usage, most shops have moved onto paper and cloth bags. 5. Instead of paying for these, carry your own bag.

A. Save your change.

B. Instead of turning to those machines, manage your finance well.

C. However, these are more expensive when compared to plastic ones.

D. Seeing more money leaving your hands, you’ ll be more aware of spending.

E. Even the government is increasing the tax on these to reduce the use of them.
