Theme-park-bound bargain seekers would be wise to spend some time surfing online before they get in line at the parks this summer.
A growing number of these attractions now allow customers to print e-tickets at home with large discounts off the gate price, in part to spur attendance that has declined in recent years.

“The bloom was off the rose as we turned the corner into 2000, so there’s more discounting now,” he says.
Discounting isn’t new to an industry that has long partnered with other commercial enterprises, such as soft drink companies, to offer deals. tut e-ticketing adds a new opportunity that not only brings savings but convenience as well, since it allows visitors to avoid the line at the gate.

Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage:
One thing almost everyone is agreed on , including Americans, is that they place a very high valuation upon success. Success does not necessarily mean material rewards, but recognition of some sort—preferably measurable. If a boy turns out to be a preacher(傳道者) instead of a businessman, that’s all right. But the bigger his church is, the more successful he is judged to be.
A good many things contributed to this accent on success.

There was the determination of an immigrant to gain in the new world what had been denied to him in the old, and on the part of his children an urge to throw off the immigrant onus(負擔) by still more success and still more rise in a fluid and classless society.
