Passage three
After years of study, I have determined there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who walk in just as the plane is about to take off. [33]If there were any justice in the world, the early airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late airport people would be punished. But there is no justice. I know I have been an early airport person for years. My luggage will get on the plane first but it will be the last luggage to come off the plane when we land. [34]You know who really gets his luggage first when we land? The late airport person, who rushes into the airport three minutes before the plane takes off. "But if I get there real real early," I told myself, "I will get the best seat." Well, no matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three days ahead of me and asked for that seat. The utmost embarrassment of the early airport person happened to me a few years ago when I was flying from New York to Chicago. When I got to the ticket counter, the person there said, "Sir, you have a seat on the 9:15 A.M. flight, is that right?" "Yes," I said. "Well, it's only 7:00 A.M. flight that has not left yet. If you hurry you can make it." [35]I was too embarrassed to say that I arrived early so I wouldn't have to hurry. Instead, I ran down the corridor to the plane.

Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What does the speaker say about the early airport person?
正確答案：D
解析：短文說世界上有兩類人，然后一一敘述他們的表現和遭遇。此題考查的是第一種人的遭遇。所以D正確。選項為某種人的慣常行為或遭遇。虛擬語氣往往是考點。此題依據文中的關鍵詞reward，原詞包含在答案之中。
34. What usually happens to the late airport person?
正確答案：C
解析：短文說，你知道誰在下飛機后首先拿到行李嗎？是后登機的人。所以C正確。選項仍為某種人的遭遇。文中的問題有時候也可能是被考查的問題。自問自答之后得出此題答案。
35. What made the speaker feel embarrassed?
正確答案：A
解析：說話人講了自己的一次尷尬遭遇：他要乘9:15的航班，卻被告知趕緊去趕7:00那班飛機。可推斷他應該登錯機。選項為某人遇到的窘境。數字無論是否直接考查，都要充分地利用。
