The United States: Fliers may want to have their tickets in hand before catching their planes, but the airline companies are doing everything they can to bring forward cost-saving ticketless flight—no paper needed, just a ticket number and a photo ID (带照片的身份证).

    Anyone who buys a Northwest E-ticket through the airline's computer service by June 16 will get an award (奖励). Next time you fly, you can buy another ticket for a friend for $ 99, good anywhere in the US or Canada through Feb. 12, 2000, along with the lowest ticket prices. Some airlines offer extra frequent-flier miles for the ticket less crowd. And there are rising punishments for paper lovers. American, Northwest, United, and last week, US Airways have raised the cost for lost ticket replacement (替换) to $ 70 from either $ 60 or $ 50. The airlines insist that the increase in price is not meant to push travelers toward E-tickets but only covers the increasing cost of replacing and tracking a missing ticket.

1Why is the new ticketless flight introduced?

    A. it is cheaper for air travelers.

    B. It helps reduce the cost for airlines.

    C. It can use computer fliers to plan air traveling.

    D. It helps prevent fliers from losing their tickets.

2To encourage people to take ticketless flights, the airlines ________.

    A. sell their tickets for $ 99 from June to February the following year

    B. let travelers go to both the US and Canada with the same tickets

    C. allow each other traveler to have an extra $ 99 ticket for a friend of theirs

    D. offer ticketless travelers free miles to fly in the US

3Who are the paper lovers mentioned in the text?

    A. People who like to have paper airplane tickets.

    B. People who love paper products of various kinds.

    C. People who travel with paper on a plane.

    D. People who have lost their tickets and buy a second one.

4The airline companies say that they have raised the lost-ticket replacement price in order to ________.

    A. attract travelers to take ticketless flights

    B. punish those who insist on using paper tickets

    C. do better than other airline companies

    D. pay for the work to deal with lost tickets

While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can't be avoided.The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress.

Try physical activity

When you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity.Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try.Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you to relax.Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.

Share your stress

It helps to talk to someone about your anxieties and worries.Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher or even your leader can help you a better view of what's troubling you.If you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist or a doctor.Knowing when to ask for help is an important step in avoiding serious problems later.

Take care of yourself

You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest.If you easily get angry and cannot sleep well enough, or if you're not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations.If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor.Make time for yourself.

Make a list of the things you need to do

A good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety.It might even help you avoid a headache or other physical effect of anxiety and stress.
