Flight Delays
Find out why your flight is delayed.Call the free call numbers.Find out if other airlines are experiencing similar delays.If you believe the delay is due to something other than weather or air traffic problems,then mention your suspicion (懷疑) and ask the airline agent to book you on the next available flight,either on the same air-line or a competing one.This is called"Rule 240",and all airlines are required to do it.
Flight Cancellations (取消)
If your flight is canceled,then make a reservation(預(yù)訂)on the next flight to your destination.Usually,air-line personnel(職員) will try to book everyone on their next flight.Often they will put you on a competitor's next flight only if you request it.
If on-time arrival is important to you,when you check flights through our reservation system you can rate your choices based on their on-time arrival records.Be sure to also check the weather conditions,as they often affect flight schedules.

分析 本文是一篇廣告布告類閱讀,文章主要講述關(guān)于航班的相關(guān)知識.首先是提早到達(dá)機(jī)場;航班延誤可以使用240規(guī)則;航班取消就要定下一班機(jī);根據(jù)目的地的不同等候時間也不同.
解答 21-23 DDC
21.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段Plan to get to the airport at least an hour early,or two during holidays and other busy times; this will reduce the stress of the flight.可知提早到達(dá)飛機(jī)場,可以減輕航行的壓力,故選D.
22.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段Dask the airline agent to book you on the next available flight,either on the same air-line or a competing one.This is called"Rule 240",可知要航空局給你定另一班機(jī),要么是相似的航線或其他航線,這就是Rule 240,由此可知Rule 240就是想要得到其他航班的票,故選D.
23.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段Plan to get to the airport at least an hour early,or two during holidays and other busy times; this will reduce the stress of the flight.可知計劃提前一個小時到飛機(jī)場,這將減少坐飛機(jī)的壓力;和文中的第一個標(biāo)題Flight Delays 文中的第二個標(biāo)題Flight Cancellations (取消).可知文章講的是飛機(jī)旅行的一些建議.故選C.
