Olympic gold medalist Morolake Akinosun walked through the halls of her high school in Illinois in the US,surprised at how little had changed at her old high school other than the green color on the walls.
Akinosun won her medal with the 400﹣meter relay team at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro this summer.Her return to her high school recently included a chance for the young woman to tell what she's learned since running track for Wsubonsie more than fours year ago.
Her first piece of advice to the crowd of students was asking them to listen to their parents.\,\.\world.\
In Akinosun's case,her parents encouraged her to consider going to the University of Illinois,which at the time had a team that was coached by Olympic medal winner Tonja Buford﹣Bailey.\wouldn't be where I am today without my parents,\.
Her parents saw Buford﹣Bailey as a good fit to coach their daughter,something Akinosun said she didn't understand at the time.It didn't take long,however,for her to see they were right and she ended up following Buford﹣Bailey to the University of Texas at Austin when the coach took a job there.Akinosun admitted it was three years before she told her parents they were right.
Becoming an excellent athlete who can take part in the Olympics needs serious dedication.She says her success came from viewing herself as an athlete﹣student instead of a student﹣athlete. \,and then comes school,\.A social life comes last. \(牺牲).You can't be on the track team unless you're chosen,\.

Getting ripped off from time to time is just part of traveling﹣﹣﹣don't let it ruin your day or your overall experience.But there are things you can do to avoid some of the most common rip﹣offs.Let me share my travel tips for how to avoid hidden fees,disappointed experiences and overpriced items. Baggage Fees
Depending upon the airline,you can pay 15to75for the first checked bag,and more for overweight bags.When possible,pack a bag lightly enough to a carry﹣on or fly airlines that still allow free checked bags(two bags for Southwest and one for JetBlue).Many airline programs allow members with a high status to have a free checked bag,so check your status. Overpriced Hotel and Airport Food
To avoid the overpriced water sold at airports,bring an empty water bottle with you through security at the airport.Then,fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you.Pick up some snacks at a local corner store instead of hitting the hotel room mini bar,which can lead to expensive surprises on your final bill. Tourist Trap Restaurants
If you're visiting a restaurant or attraction that has online presence,Google it or search it on Yelp to see what the locals say about it and to find any available coupons(优惠券) that might get some extra savings.Often restaurants run deals on Yelp where if you\
word.
review it,you get a free dessert or 15% off the total bill,etc.By researching online,you'll not only see whether there are any coupons or extra savings available,but people will tell you if the chef changed a month ago and the food is awful now. 25.To have a free checked bag,you shall not .
A.take a light carry﹣on B.have a high status C.take overweight bags D.choose Southwest Airlines 26.If you want to drink free water at an airport,you can . A.take a bottle of water through security B.go to a water fountain C.go to a store at the airport D.order a coffee at a coffee shop 27.The passage is probably written by .
A.a travel agent B.an economical person C.an experienced traveler D.a skilled net﹣worker.

When The New Republic magazine predicted who would win the 2016Nobel Prize in literature on Oct.6,it said:\.That's for sure.\
But the award came as a surprise to many.On Oct 13,the famous US musician was named the Nobel laureate by the Swedish Academy.He has\new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition\,according to the organization.
Although Dylan,75,is not really thought to be a literary writer,he has given the world a lot of creative works over 50years,especially when it comes to his folk songs.
In his 1985album Biograph,Dylan wrote about the appeal of folk music to him.Rock songs\,according to Dylan.But folk,was\.The songs are filled with more sadness,more joy…much deeper feelings.\
Dylan's music and lyrics(抒情诗) spoke to many people during the 1960s.His lyrics were often about great political issues,such as the civil rights movement.The 1960s were a time of change when the young were making sure that their voices were heard.The idea is most famously expressed in Dylan's The Times They Are a﹣Changin'(1964),which warns the world,\better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone.For the times they are a﹣changin'!\
There were complaints that a literary prize had been given to a singer.But ancient\Homer ND Sappho wrote poetic works that were meant to be listened to,that were meant to be performed,often with instruments and it's the same way with Dylan\,the Swedish Academy's permanent secretary Sara Danius told CNN.
It could even be said that giving the important prize to Dylan has brought back an old literary
word.
