Flying first class was a new experience for us. We were happy to join the other few passengers who  36  fly in such luxury（奢侈）. It was almost as if we had a sense of  37  to be sitting with the group of people that  38  us.

As we chatted away about our travel, I could hear people around us talked about  39  business meetings. It wasn’t long before I __40  that these people were used to flying in luxury. They are 41 people I thought.

We noticed that the stewardess（女乘務員）was working non-stop to ensure the  42  of the first class passengers. She could not walk by a seat without receiving a(n)  43 . I thought how much she must love her job,   44  she smiled kindly at each person while  45  to their needs.

As the stewardess walked by our seats near the  46  of the flight, I looked at her and said, “Thank you and I hope you’ll have a great night.”She stopped at our seats with a look of  47  , bent down, looked at me and said, “Excuse me?” I  48  my words and she smiled in a rather  49  way, almost as if I had asked her a question that she did not know how to answer. After a few moments she said, “I can  50  you work with the public.” “Why do you think so?” I asked. She answered very quietly, “Because you are the  _51  passenger here to say thank you and I really  52  your kindess.

     Monarch butterflies (黑脈金斑蝶) are a common summer sight in the northern United States and Canada.
These large orange and black insects (昆蟲) brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers.
What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate (遷飛)-all the way to California or Mexico
and back. They are thought to be the only insect that does this.
     Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south. Those heading for Mexico go
first for the Louisiana-Mississippi area, then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas. Once in Mexico, they
settle themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees. Each place provides a
winter home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees. When
spring comes, they begin their long journey north. The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes
the round-trip journey every year. And the answer is no. The average monarch lives about nine months. So
one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then die. The eggs of that generation may be found in
Kentucky ; the eggs of the next generation may end up in Wisconsin or Michigan. The last generation of the
season,
about the fourth, will make their way back to Mexico and restart the journey.
     Scientists learn about monarchs' migration by catching and making marks on the insects. By recatching a
monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from, the next scientist can get to know things like the
butterfly's age and its routing (路線).
1. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is _____.
