TRAVEL ADVISORY

Here are a few things you should know before you take off on your next trip.

Frontier Airlines Face Covering Requirement

As required by federal law, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Order and

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Security Directive, all passengers and

employees must wear a face covering over nose and mouth throughout the Frontier travel

experience including at ticket counters, gate areas, baggage claim and onboard all flights.

Face coverings are not required for children under the age of 2. Face coverings must fit

snugly(紧密地) over your nose and mouth and be secured under the chin. Not wearing an

approved face covering is a violation of federal law and you may lose future travel privileges

on Frontier.

* Persons with a disability who cannot wear a mask, or cannot safely wear a mask,

because of that disability as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act can apply for a face

mask exemption(豁免). To learn about pre-travel exemption requirements, click here.

Temperature Screening Requirement

Anyone with a temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher will not be able to

board the plane. If time allows, we will give customers the opportunity to rest before

receiving a second check. If the second temperature screening is 100.4 degrees or higher, our

team will help the customer to rebook travel on a later date when they are feeling better.

Know Your Travel Policy

CDC issued an Order on January 12, 2021(effective since January, 26, 2021) requiring

proof of a negative COVID-19 test or documentation of having recovered from COVID-19

for all air passengers arriving from a foreign country to the US.

1．Who can legally board a Frontier Airlines flight without wearing a face covering?

A．A senior manager of Frontier Airlines.

C．A one-year-old baby.

B．A blind man in a wheelchair.

D．A high school student.

试卷第1页，共9页

2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A．Passengers without proper face coverings may be banned from flying with Frontier

Airlines in the future.

B．Passengers can take off their face coverings when they pick up their checked baggage.

C．Passengers with a high fever will have their flights rescheduled.

D．Passengers without proof of a negative COVID-19 test can’t enter the US on January 20,

2021.

3．Where is this text most likely from?

A．A website.

C．A guidebook.

Last year before Christmas, I had a 7-day paid leave and I decided to go on an overnight

stay to a nearby fancy hotel Airbnb. I was drawn to the beautiful views and distance from the

hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of the city. After I arrived, I was shocked to know that my room had

no WiFi or even television! We were in a modern society, weren’t we? Then what was the

matter with them?

“We learned from recent studies that people avoiding social media for one week might

result in considerable improvements in their well-being, depression, and anxiety,” the staff

explained with patience to me when I questioned their service. “And now, many hotels and

homestays around the world have been offering visitors exactly this, sir…”

Later, I ran across some brochures about such trend in my room. Sheldon Chalet, a

famous place of interest in Alaska, has gone tech-free in an attempt to provide its guests with

a truly relaxing vacation without technology. Owner Marne Sheldon hopes that guests can

become less dependent of technology. “Here they can spend their nights looking at shooting

stars and the aurora (极光), rather than checking through smartphones, messages and posts or

watching the news.” For travelers who prefer peace in the sun and sand, one tiny island in the

Caribbean has no televisions, telephones or WiFi. Guests at the island’s resort have to

communicate with staff using traditional methods, such as raising or lowering a flag outside

their cottage!

“In today’s environment of constant information and digital connection, many people are

in need of a digital detox (数码脱瘾).” Anyway, as for my case, it is actually a new

luxury—peace and quiet.

Climate change is a global challenge. One way to fight it is by reducing the amount of

carbon dioxide in the air. New research shows that trees planted in China have helped in this

fight.

A recent study in the journal Nature shows that the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed

(吸收) by new forests in two parts of China is more than we thought. These areas are in the

northeastern Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces and the southwestern Yunnan and Guizhou

provinces and Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. They make up about 35 percent of

China’s land-based (基于陆地的) carbon sinks (碳汇). A carbon sink is a natural area like a

forest or ocean that absorbs more-carbon dioxide than it emits (排放). Carbon sinks help to

reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

China’s goal is to peak (达到峰值) its CO2 emissions (排放) before 2030 and reach

carbon neutrality (中和) by 2060, Xinhua reported. Carbon neutrality refers to removing as

much CO2 as one puts into the air.

According to study co-author Yi Liu at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, “the

afforestation activities described in our Nature paper will play a role in reaching that goal.”

problem.

C．More trees will be planted in China in the future. D．China has beaten climate change.

An article caught my attention this week. It claims that few parents these days tend to

hire neighborhood teens to watch their kids. In fact, the article states that the average age of

babysitters (代人临时照看小孩的人) in the UK has risen from 14 to 34 over the past several

decades.

I worked as a teenage babysitter for years. At that time, I took up those jobs as they were

economic to do so, but now I see them as valuable experiences. The article reminded me of

just how significantly babysitting influenced my worldview and my approach to parenting. It

made me think that more teens should be involved in babysitting because it really does

prepare them for life in a way that few other things can.

Babysitting makes everyone’s life easier. I gained many practical skills adapting to

children. I discovered that the outdoor activities are the best way to wear out high-energy

children and that reading books aloud is an excellent way to pass the time and that music

makes an instant party. Babysitting reveals how other households operate. This is a

fascinating, invaluable lesson. I had great conversations with the parents of children I babysat.

Some parents introduced me to their favorite music, described their own jobs and interests,

and showed curiosity about my schoolwork and life goals.

In a society where families are increasingly isolated (孤立的) from each other, where

children are no longer raised by a “village” or community of caring individuals, hiring a

试卷第4页，共9页

teenage babysitter is a simple way to bridge that gap and it also gives that teen a chance to

gain some independence. The next time you’re having a date night with your partner, don’t

hesitate to call on that teen down the street and offer him or her a job. It could be the best

thing for all of you.

12．What is the common phenomenon of babysitting in the UK?

A．The adults’ having difficulty watching over their kids.

B．The youth’s lack of interest in babysitting.

C．The increasing average age of babysitters

D．The rising demand for babysitters.

13．Why did the author choose to be a babysitter in the past?

A．To make money.

B．To gain social experiences.

C．To learn how to get along with others.

D．To encourage more teenagers to be babysitters.

14．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3?

A．To state the benefits of babysitting.

B．To reveal the kindness’ of some parents.

C．To share her experiences of babysitting.

D．To show how other households operate.

15．What does the author suggest that parents do in the last paragraph?

A．Create harmonious community culture.

B．Spend more time at home with their kids.

C．Encourage their kids to be more independent.

D．Offer opportunities of babysitting to teenagers.

I had an extraordinary experience when I was in Senior 1. I am doing badly in chemistry.

However hardly I tried, I just couldn’t catch up others. Fortunately, we had a new chemistry

teacher, Mr Hu, which is plain-looking but very good at teaching. He gave so interesting

lessons that we all liked him. The most excited thing was doing experiments because this was

wonderful to see the chemical changes. Soon I made a great progress. I even began to apply

want to be a teacher like Mr. Hu in the future.
