31、o places such as Spain and Greece. Once at their destination, they socialized with other groups of young people and had one long party.British holidaying habits have begun to change, however.

33、 the UK, the domestic tourism industrywhen people go on holiday in their own countryis healthier than it has been in decades.

39、ne month, or no deadline to respond. Professor Knowles says although the topic of the survey was about charity, the results are true of any situation where someone asks another person for help.The study found responses to the survey were lowest for the one-month deadline and highest when no deadline

40、 was specified(明確規(guī)定). No deadline and the one-week deadline led to many early responses, while a long deadline appeared to give people permission to procrastinate. And then forget.
