In China, these knots stand for friendship, love and good luck.②Not only people can give them as gifts to friends but also they can hang them in their houses. They are only 12.99 US dollars each. If anyone wants to know more about the knots, let them write to me. Also, do let me know if you need further information. Thank you!

　　Ⅳ.阅读理解

　　(2017·开封高三模拟)Statistically, air travel is by far the safest way to travel and you can make flying even safer, just by following these simple rules. As your chances of being involved in an air crash are practically nil (零), many of these rules concern what you should and shouldn't do to make your journey safer when you are in the air.

　　●Fly on non­stop routes

　　Most air crashes occur during the take­off, climb, descent and landing period of a flight, so a non­stop flight reduces your exposure to these complicated procedures.

　　●Choose larger aircrafts

　　Although small aircrafts have very good safety records, those with more than 30 passenger seats are designed to comply with much stricter regulations and are tested more regularly to make sure they still comply. Also, in the unlikely event of a serious crash, larger aircrafts provide a better opportunity of passenger survival.

　　●Pay attention to the pre­flight safety briefing (简报)

　　The information may seem to be repeated, but it's worth listening to the flight attendants. And even if you have flown before, it doesn't mean you know everything about the aircraft you're on, such as the location of the closest emergency exit.

　　●Store things safely

　　Never put very heavy articles in the overhead storage bin. They may fall out when someone opens the bin and cause injury. Also, the bin may not be able to hold heavy objects during the violent movements of air caused by the wind.

　　●Keep your seat belt fastened while you are seated

　　Cabin crew always tell you this, but it's important. You could be seriously injured if the plane hits the violent movement of air unexpectedly. Always fasten your seat belt if you are told to. The_general_rule of flying is this: if you are told to do something, do it first and ask questions later.

　　●Let the flight attendant pour your hot drinks

　　Flight attendants are trained to handle hot drinks like coffee or tea in a crowded aisle on a moving aircraft, so allow them to pour the drink and hand it to you. Never ask to take a coffee pot from one of them.
