I’ve consulted several travel experts to find out the top places in the USA worth visiting in 2021.Where: New Orleans, LouisianaWhy: New Orleans is known for its music and food-not to mention the festivals.It has about 130 festivals each year, so there’s really no had time to visit. Bourbon Street is the obvious choice for food, drink and jazz and it’s definitely a must-visit location, especially for the first timers to the city.Where: Vail, ColoradoWhy: Vail is the perfect destination for travelers looking to find almost everything in one central spot. Stay at the amazing Four Seasons Resort and Residences Vail a few steps away from Vail Village, a popular town with cobblestone(鹅卵石)streets for wandering leisurely. The country’s largest free transportation system runs frequently, making it easy to access almost anywhere from Vail Village to Lionshead Village.Where: Hudson Valley, New YorkWhy: The Hudson Valley is where New Yorkers go to escape the city when they need a healthy dose of nature and relaxation. Just an hour and half north of New York City, the Hudson Valley is made up of small, impossibly charming towns, where the air is fresher and things do move slower in the mountains.21.

He never disagreed with the emperor’s ideas, even though he knew they might he wrong. Knowing that Emperor Yangdi was very warlike, Pei suggested fighting many wars. This, however, led to Sui’s downfall, as the wars cost too many human and material resources.When the Tang Dynasty was established, Pei started to work for the new government. He seemed to become a totally different person. Instead of flattering Emperor Taizong, Pei always spoke out against his wrongs and tried his best to help Taizong make the right decisions.Why (lid Pei change? According to Chinese historian Sima Guang(1019-1086), Pei was affected by whom he worked for. Emperor Yangdi hated to be criticized, while Emperor Taizong loved to hear frank advice. That made the difference.In this story, Pei Ju may not be a perfect role model for us. He seemed to be a person who "trims his sail to the wind". What we can learn from this, however, is that our surroundings make a difference. A good environment encourages you to do good deeds, while a had one may lead you to do undesirable things. That's why people say, "A fine bird rests only on a fine tree, and a virtuous minister only serves a virtuous master". We should also try to put ourselves in a good environment where we can meet good teachers and friends.On the other hand, the story also shows that only those who are willing to hear criticism can benefit from it.In 2012, President Xi Jinping told this story at the Party School of the CPC Central Committee. He said that government officials should be open-minded and welcome frank advice.This also applies to us. Do you want fake friends who only please you but don’t care about you, or true friends who can sincerely point out your mistakes? It’s up to you.24. What was Pei like when he was an official during the Sui Dynasty?A. He always agreed with the emperor. B. He knew very little about the emperor.C. He fought many wars for the emperor. D. He never spoke in front of the emperor.25. Why was Pei so honest with Emperor Taizong?A. Because Taizong treated him well. B. Because Pei enjoyed challenging others.C. Because Taizong could accept frank advice. D. Because Pei didn’t like the new government.26. What does the author think about Pei?A. He was a perfect role model. B. He did many undesirable things.C. He was influenced by his environment. D. He should have chosen a better master to serve.27. What can we learn from the story?A. Criticizing others can help us improve.B. We shouldn’t make friends with people like Pei.C. We should be open-minded and welcome frank advice.D. Being frank with others can stop us from making new friends.CMany of you have probably had this experience: You get on a train and are ready to take a nap or read a book, only to find that the passenger in front of you is watching a TV show on his cellphone without headphones.

The housework was never ending, and she struggled to feed and clothe their five children but she was happy as her family and their well-being were all she cared about.Nevertheless, he opened the shop’s old door and went inside. Standing proud and straight in his yellowed shirt and washed-out trousers, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, "But I don’t have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time?""I'll try," the shopkeeper smiled. "People around here don’t usually have that kind of money to spend on things. It should keep for a while."Andrew touched his worn cap and walked out. He would raise the money and not tell anybody, for he thought Mom would get surprised when she saw that hairpin. On hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Andrew suddenly had an idea that he could raise money by selling the used nail bags. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails bought in bags from a local factory. Sometimes the used bags were thrown away at the construction site, and Andrew knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.That day he sold two nail bags and hid the money in a cola box.注意：1.续写的词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Every day after school, Andrew started his plan.Finally, the time came!
