What Is Your Next Destination?

With the summer vacation drawing near you may have already made a well-structured travel plan. But if you’re still wondering where to enjoy your holiday, here are some popular destinations for your reference. Click each title to get more details.

Taste Tea in China

The Ancient Tea Plantations of Jingmai Mountain in Pu’er features about 1.13 million tea trees. Located in China’s Yunnan Province, the region was a starting point of the legendary Ancient Tea Horse Road. Many of the region’s tea plantations remain, as do the local ethnic minority groups who preserve their own languages, customs, and festivals.

Dive Deep in Palau

When you arrive here, the stamp in your passport will include the Palau Pledge (誓约), which all visitors must sign, promising that “the only footprints I shall leave are those that will wash away.” The eco-pledge was drafted by and for the children of these remote western Pacific islands to help preserve Palau’s culture and environment from the negative impacts of tourism.

Run Wild in Australia

Green plants are reappearing in Australia, of which some 72, 000 square miles were burned during the 2019-2020 bushfires, leading to the deaths of more than a billion animals. Drive the Great Ocean Road in Victoria’s Otways region, and then take a hike at Wildlife Wonders. Wandering through bushes gives you a chance to spot koalas unique to this ecosystem.

Go Green in Germany

Mining and steel production once dominated the Ruhr Valley in German. Today, the region is repurposing previous industrial sites as parks and open air cultural spaces. The most famous is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Zeche Zollverein, now home to an outdoor swimming pool and walking paths. You can rent a bike in Essen for a car-free Ruhr Valley trip along cycling routes.

1. What can’t visitors do in the Ancient Tea Plantations of Jingmai Mountain?

A. Experience the customs of the local ethnic minority groups.

B. Ride horses on the Ancient Tea Horse Road.

C. See a splendid view of a vast area of tea trees.

D. Have a taste of Pu’er tea.

2. Why are visitors to Palau required to make a promise?

A. To experience the unique local culture.

B. To better explore the Pacific Ocean.

C. To help the children suffering poverty there.

D. To prevent potential damage brought by tourism.

3. Which trip best suits people who enjoy bike trips along cycling routes?

ATaste Tea in China. B. Dive Deep in Palau.

CRun Wild in Australia. D. Go Green in Germany.

4. Where is the passage most probably taken from?

A. A brochure. B. A newspaper. C. A website. D. A magazine.

【答案】1. B2. D3. D4. C

B

Children start out as natural scientists. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat in silence. Finally I said, “Now that we’ve finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”

A boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢)eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?” This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.

Secondly, give them time to think. Studies have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.

Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before,” or coming up with more questions or ideas.

Never push a child to think. It doesn’t make sense; children are always thinking. What’s more, this can turn a conversation into a performance.

Lastly, show; don’t tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜), and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner.

5. What does the underlined word “lists” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A. Plans. B. Ideas.

C. Textbook questions. D. Personal difficulties.

6. How can adults make children answer questions in a better way?

A. By asking them to answer quickly. B. By giving them more patience.

C. By giving them a clue to the question. D. By teaching them to think logically.

7. What should adults do to encourage children in a science discussion?

A. Perform good behavior. B. Give quick praise.

C. Make the discussion shorter. D. Ask more questions.

8. What’s the main idea of the text?

A. How to help children enjoy science.

B. How to get along with children.

C. How to enter into a science discussion.

D. How to make a lesson more impressive for children.

C

When I was about 4 years old, I was diagnosed with a learning disability known as autism(自闭症). It made my mom really upset and for me, it was very rough growing up with it, considering the fact that I wasn’t able to have an actual conversation until I was about 7 years old.

School was very difficult for me when I was younger. Teachers would always discuss with my parents about ways to improve my learning. I have an Individual Education Plan (IEP), which allows special accommodations for school. But I still face some discrimination from school staff. I asked my mom about how that played out when I was younger.

“It was right when you were going into kindergarten,” she said. “I stopped to talk to your brother’s former kindergarten teacher and I asked her if she was ready to have you in her class the next year. And her response was, ‘I don’t think Zachary is going to be a good fit for my classroom.’” She said she was really shocked by the teacher’s response, but finally managed to find another kindergarten teacher who was willing to take me on.

My mother is a huge advocate for me. She made sure I got every treatment, camp program and accommodations. She even created a parent support group at my elementary school. She wanted to help the parents that were struggling and the ones that didn’t know how to advocate for their children.

By the time I got into middle school, I didn’t struggle at school anymore. I told a few people that I was autistic but they didn’t believe me since I looked quite normal. And that’s all thanks to my mother, whose support and loving care really helped me through those tough years.

9. The author found his growing up difficult because of ________.

A. a learning disability called Autism B. his mother’s sadness

C. his inability to speak D. the difficult school work

10. What can we know about the author from the text?

A. He was diagnosed with autism when he was about 7 years old.

B. Everybody treated him nicely and he didn’t receive any discrimination at school.

C. His brother’s former kindergarten teacher refused to have him in her class.

D. His mother created a parent support group to help him overcome the disease.

11. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this article?

A. To arouse people’s awareness of autism. B. To show his sufferings caused by autism.

C. To cheer up those diagnosed with autism. D. To express his gratitude to his mother.

D

Humans have been living and working on the space station for over 20 years. Their meals are packaged, though sometimes astronauts receive fresh treats from resupply missions. The longer that packaged food is stored, the more it loses nutrients like vitamin C and vitamin K.

Astronauts have successfully grown 10 different crops on the space station since 2015 and had the chance to sample (品尝) each one. The International Space Station hosted a party for astronauts on Friday as they celebrated the harvest of the first chili peppers (辣椒) grown in space. The crew finally had a chance to taste the peppers after initially kicking off the plant experiment on the space station in July.

Plant Habitat-04 is one of the most complex plant experiments on the orbiting laboratory to date because peppers take much longer to grow than the previous experiment plants. After growing for four months, the peppers were harvested on Friday.

Peppers provide a great source of vitamin C, as well as other key nutrients. Pepper plants self-pollinate (自花授粉), so they are easy to grow, and they are a pick-and-eat crop that doesn’t have to be cooked. They are also safe to eat raw.

A side effect of life in zero gravity is that astronauts often lose some of their taste and smell, so spicy or well-seasoned foods are a favorite. Adding fresh greens or peppers to the menu allows astronauts to liven up their regular meals. But growing and tending to the plants can also produce other benefits.

Astronauts have described the joy from seeing — as well as smelling and caring for — leafy green plants on the space station that remind them of Earth.

“Growing colorful vegetables in space can have long-term benefits for physical and psychological health,” said Matt Romeyn, principal investigator for the experiment. “We are discovering that growing plants and vegetables with colors and smells helps to improve astronauts’ well-being.”

12. How is the food astronauts eat on the space station?

A. Always fresh. B. Lack of nutrients.

C. Never tasty. D. Full of vitamins.

13. What makes Plant Habitat-04 one of the most complex plant experiments?

A. The technology. B. Growing process.

C. The varieties of plants. D. Growing time required.

14. Which is the most probable reason for adding peppers to food for astronauts?

A. Peppers are delicious. B. Peppers can improve memory.

C. Peppers help prevent diseases. D. Peppers can restore appetite.

15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?

A. The Fun of Growing Chili Peppers in Space

B. The Agricultural Goal in the Space Mission

C. The First Chili Peppers Grown in Space

D. The Chili Peppers Used in the Space Mission

Easy Tips to Reduce Your Screen Time

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

After filling out fifty applications, going through four interviews, and winning one offer. I took what I could get a teaching job in what I considered a distant wild area; western New Jersey. My characteristic optimism was alive only when I reminded myself that I would be doing what I had wanted to do since I was fourteen—teaching English.

School started I was teaching English. I worked hard, taking time off only to eat and sleep. And then there was my sixth grade class-seventeen boys and five girls who were only six years younger than me. I had a problem long before I knew it. I was struggling in my work as a young idealistic teacher. I wanted to make literature come alive and to promote a love for the written word. The students wanted to throw spitballs (纸团) and whisper dirty words in the back of the room.

In college I had been taught that a successful educator should ignore bad behavior. So I did, confident that, as the textbook had said, the bad behavior would disappear as I gave my students positive attention. It sounds reasonable, but the text evidently ignored the fact that humans, particularly teenagers, rarely seem reasonable. By the time my boss, who was also my task master (监工), known to be the strictest, most demanding, most quick to fire inexperienced teachers, came into the classroom to observe me, the students exhibited very little good behavior to praise.

My boss sat in the back of the room. The boys in the class were making animal noises, hitting each otherwhile the girls filed (锉) their nails or read magazines. I just pretended it all wasn't happening, and went on lecturing and tried to ask some inspiring questions. My boss, sitting in the back of the room, seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. After twenty minutes he left, silently. Visions of unemployment marched before my eyes. I felt mildly victorious that I got through the rest of class without crying, but at my next free period I had to face him.

注意：

1．续写词数应为150左右；

2．请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。

After class, I walked to his of fice, took a deep breath, and opened the door.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Inspired by his advice, I walked towards the classroom, determined to make a change.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】Para 1:

After class, I walked to his of fice, took a deep breath, and opened the door.My boss was sitting in his chair with a hardened face, gazing at me long and hard. Anxious and ashamed, I said nothing, wondering if he would fire me right away. He handed me an envelope, which definitely added more anxiety to me at that moment. However, my eyes went wide open when I opened it and read the letter. It was not an unemployment letter but a letter with several suggestions about my teaching, one of which was highlighted in red: An educator should respect students, feelings. Almost immediately, a warm glow of emotion rose inside me. As I went out of the office, I made up my mind to change my attitude.

Para 2:

Inspired by his advice, I walked towards the classroom, determined to make a change.As the bell rang, I stood on the platform, eyes wandering across the classroom. The students seemed to expecting another boring and dull English lesson, some dropping their eyes and some whispering in the back rows. I cleared my throat and announced, “Boys and girls, let’s begin with your voice about my literature lesson.” Suddenly, a complete silence fell over. Each lifted his heads and cast me a puzzled look. Flashing a smile, I encouraged, “Anything you’d like to say!” At this, the students got stirred up. The class soon amazingly came to life thanks to their brilliant voices, which brought me to what my strictest boss enlightened me: respecting the students instead of ignoring them will make a difference.
