The area is known for its coffee, pineapples and sugar cane plantations, as well as its rich forests. What's more, you can enjoy horseback riding, spend afternoons at the spa or tour a nearby wildlife shelter to look out for colorful birds, sloths and other animals.Los Cabos, MexicoIf you love wine, travel to Los Cabos, a beautiful vacation destination at the southern edge of the Baja Peninsula. During your getaway（短假），you can enjoy special wine tastings and dinner cooked by Los Cabos's Michelin-starred chef. There are wildlife-viewing opportunities, too. From December through May, you can spot whales, manta rays and more wildlife.Petit St Vincent, the GrenadinesThis private Caribbean island was free of the anger of hurricanes Irma and Maria. What’s more, the whole island is only 115 acres and has 22 cottages. Each cottage is located in a quiet place, and you can expect to unplug and recharge phones with no wireless connections, televisions or telephones in the cottages. Even better, you can spend your days admiring fascinating marine life at the Jean-Michel Cousteau Diving Caribbean center.The Exumas, BahamasOn Fowl Cay's 50-acre private island, you can enjoy a carefree escape. Days can be spent fishing, boating and diving before wandering along white sands. The resort（度假村）features large one-, two- and three-bedroom houses. Best of all, if you're planning a group getaway or multigene-rational trip, you rent the entire island for a one-of-a-kind island escape.21. Why does the author recommend these places to readers?A.

It survived hurricanes Irma and Maria. B. It's a huge and quiet island.C. People can admire fish off shore. D. People can charge phones using wireless connections. 23.

He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note——"Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery."——and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn't freeze. And I remember Mr Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.Sadly, there is no home milk delivery today. Big companies allow the production of cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch （门廊）.Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk. 24. Mr Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer.A. to show his magical power B. to pay for the deliveryC. to satisfy the boy's curiosity D. to please the boy's mother25. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?A. He wanted to have tea there. B. He was a respectable person.C. He was treated as a family member. D. He was fully trusted by the family. 26. Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?A. Nobody wants to be a milkman now. B. It has been driven out of the market.C. Its service is getting poor. D. It is forbidden by law.27. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A. He missed the good old days. B. He wanted to tell interesting stories.C. He needed it for his milk bottles. D. He planted flowers in it.CEverywhere we look, we are surrounded by technology. We heavily rely on technology for our day-to-day lives. There are the social media apps, such as Facebook, Twitter, where we are able to see into the lives of everyone around us. There are other more useful apps like Google Maps, where you can use a GPS to get from one place to another. It is no wonder that we are constantly looking down at our phones and other devices. And, that is a problem.Pretty soon, I fear that people will no longer be able to communicate face to face. I personally love being able to sit down and have a conversation with someone sans cell phones and distractions. It shows that you care about who you are talking to and want to involve and listen to them. The cell phone can wait until later.What I really dislike is that younger and younger children are using technology. Instead of playing outside with friends, they are playing on iPads, iPods, or video games. Instead of having little games or books, children now have electronic devices to use to distract them even if waiting at doctors' appointments etc. They want cell phones at young ages. They have texting. I overheard sixth graders one day talking about texting, and I was a little sad. At that age, I had to call my friends on the phone in order to talk to them.We are a society based on technology. And, that isn't a completely bad thing, given its use in areas such as medicine. But we shouldn't be addicted to so many of these devices that we forget to look around and see what is happening in the world around us.28. What can be concluded from the first paragraph?A. Some tech products leave us unable to focus.B. Social media apps make everyone more visible.C. Many people usually misuse social media apps.D. Technology provides us with a convenient life.29. Which can best replace the underlined word "sans"?A. is need of B. without C. is spite of D. with30. What's the author's attitude towards using technology in medicine?A. Indifferent. B. Opposed. C. Concerned. D. Supportive.31. What does the author really want to show in the passage?A. We should take a step back from constantly using technology.B. The electronic devices are closely connected with our life.C. Society should no longer be based on technology.D. We should say goodbye to electronic devices.D“It's a big hammer to crack a nut." This is how one angry parent described the recent crackdown（严 厉的打击）by London police on parents who drop their kids off at school by car. Yes, you read that correctly — the very mode of transportation that many American schools insist is the only safe way to deliver kids to school is now considered illegal in the UK.The decision to fine any vehicles seen dropping off or picking up kids within a particular zone of east London comes from city councilors'（议员）long-term efforts to make the area safer and less crowded. They say they've been trying for years "to encourage reasonable parking”, but in vain. Neighborhood residents complain frequently about their driveways being blocked by illegally parked cars for 15 minutes or more, often while they're trying to get to work, and the streets are long overcrowded.Now the rules have changed. Some parents are angry. Angie is a mother who made the ”big hammer" comment and says the crackdown is “way over the top”. The nearest drop-off point for her six-year-old is now a five-minute walk from the school. Others are happy with the decision, severe though it may seem.Councilor Jason Frost said： ”Traffic has been clearly reduced, and more children are now walking to school, which is a great outcome. I would rather have complaints that we are slightly inconveniencing parents than hear that a child had been seriously injured because nothing was done.”I witness daily the chaos （混乱）created by these in-town drivers, when I walk my own kids to school. There's a parking lot crowded with vehicles and a slow-moving train of cars moving in circles, many filling the air with harmful smoke. Meanwhile, the conversations around overweight children and the importance of daily physical activities continue to stand out in schools.32. Why is Angie opposed to the new rule?A. She is often fined by London police.B. She will lose her job as a school driver.C. She has adapted to the American practice.D. She thinks it adds inconvenience to her kid.33. Why has the new rule been made according to Jason Frost?A. On account of many complaints. B. Because of students' health problem.C. Owing to safety concern. D. Due to air pollution.34. What can be seen after the crackdown is carried out?A. Less daily chaos. B. Support from all people.C. More overweight children. D. Complaints from neighbors.35. What is the main idea of the text?A. Parents attempt to resist a school rule.B. London police cause widespread anger.C. American schools care more about kids' safety.D. Different voices are heard on a new traffic policy.第二节（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Top Ways to Spend the Holiday Season with PetsTaking a nap is a great way to refresh during the holidays, and a nap with your dog or cat （or both） is an excellent bonding opportunity.Holiday time is here.
