Everyone at Pacsafe is always eager to get out in the world and enjoy new cultures, food, and experiences. With that in mind we asked a few of our top travel bugs for their best travel destination recommendations for 2022. They also included their favorite Pacsafe bag to take on the trip. Enjoy and hopefully get some ideas for your own globe-trotting adventure.
Sri Lanka — Alison Hanko, Global Marketing Director
I’m going to Sri Lanka this summer holiday and can’t wait. It’s close to Hong Kong where I live and I’ve always wanted to go. The food is supposed to be amazing. It seems really relaxing and I really want to do the Kandy to Badulla train ride, which looks just stunning. We’ve booked a good mix of beaches, sometime in a safari tent to hopefully see elephants in the wild.
For my bag, I’ll most likely take the Quiksilver 40L Pack because it has the built-in wet pack for my bikinis. It’s also a great size for a week-long trip in a warm climate.
Japan ― Ben Barras, Creative Director
Japan is definitely my best travel destination recommendation. The culture, the streets, the architecture, the inspiration you get from all of that is amazing. The food is also fascinating. It’s where I’m most planning to go. Tokyo obviously, but also visiting the mountains. You can go snowboarding, which I haven’t done for years.
I have a Vibe 25L Backpack which you can pack a lot in. The thing I like most about it is that it’s compact, but still fits plenty in. I’ll pair that up with a larger travel bag for the rest of my things and use the backpack to get around day to day.
Berlin ― Phil Hayes Executive VP of Global Design
For me, it’s definitely Berlin. I’m particularly excited about the fashion, which I hear is pretty full on. Also the art galleries and history. Food, nightlife. Everything I’ve heard about Berlin is pretty cool, so I’m going to suck as much as I can out of it. World’s Global Style Network had the Berlin shopping list that came out recently, so I’m going to follow that through as well.
Bag wise, it will be the Quiksilver X Collab Bag. It’s the 25L Anti-theft Backpack. It’s normally my go-to bag for city trips because it’s super easy to lock on the plane and in bars, and it’s just the right amount of space.
21. Which of the Pacsafe bag is a good choice for beach travel?
A. The Quiksilver 40L Pack. B. The Vibe 25L Backpack.
C. The Quiksilver X Collab Bag. D. 25L Anti-theft Backpack.
22. If you are interested in fashion, which destination should you choose?
A. Sri Lanka. B. Japan. C. Hong Kong. D. Berlin.
23. What can you enjoy in all the three places mentioned?
A. Beautiful beaches. B. Amazing food. C. Fascinating art. D. Cool snowboarding.
B
“The first step in realizing your dream is to not be afraid of any challenge,” Liu Wa from Beijing Chaoyang Kaiwen Academy said.
This July, when Liu was informed that the music festival her band was attending had some trouble and was about to be cancelled, she decided to take over the job of hosting it. “I thought to myself, how hard could hosting be?” What’s more, she turned this festival into a charity event by raising money for a stray dog rescue station in Anhui province.
Liu became a volunteer for the station by coincidence two years ago. “I realized how much money it could take to save those dogs. This music festival is exactly the opportunity I need to raise people’s awareness of protecting stray dogs and donate money for them,” Liu said.
Liu and her two friends, who are also members of the band needed to find sponsorships, set up the venue and contact bands of high schools in Beijing to perform within two weeks. “Negotiating with sponsors was tricky sometimes as we needed to figure out what they wanted and trade with resources we had,” Liu recalled. They managed to cooperate with companies such as a study abroad agency to cover the expense as much as possible. Many parents also “sponsored” them with their homemade food.
The weather forecast had said that the day of the music festival, Aug 6, was going to be rainy. “We were so worried at first. But then a miracle happened: It only rained a little toward the end, helping us to sell the umbrellas we had prepared,” Liu said.
Audiences were mainly friends, parents and students. “Because of the pandemic (疫情), the audiences were limited to no more than 200 people, which also pushed us to come up with ways of earning money other than tickets,” Liu explained. Eventually, they managed to raise 50,000 yuan from rain gear (雨具), food, and accessories they had designed.
Having been looked down upon many times by professional bands in Beijing, Liu also sees this festival as a way of telling the world that high school bands are just as good. “I want to run our own music channel on Bilibili. Our love for music will never stop,” Liu said.
24. What inspired Liu to host the music festival?
A. Her concern for stray dogs. B. Her friends’ encouragement.
C. Her desire to promote her band. D. Her previous music festival experience.
25. What does the underlined word “tricky” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. Interesting. B. Smooth. C. Awkward. D. Important.
26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The preparation for the music festival. B. The negotiations with sponsor companies.
C. Sponsor feedback on the music festival. D. Resources needed for the music festival.
27. What does the music festival mean to Liu?
A. A battle with professional bands. B. A showcase for high school bands.
C. A channel for popularizing her band. D. A chance to learn from other bands.
C
We are what we eat. That is an old expression, but one worth knowing. A recent look at diets around the world shows that people who eat healthy food — and not too much of it — live longer. But which areas of the world have the best diets? Researchers found that foods in some of the healthiest diets — Mediterranean, New Nordic, Japanese and French — may be very different, but they are all heavy on local, seasonal and limit processed foods, which are high in vegetables and seafood and low in red meat.
Mediterranean diet contains lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and olive oil. The diet has proper amounts of fish and poultry (禽肉). Red meat and foods high in sugar and salt are not big parts of this diet.
New Nordic diet has whole grains like oats and rye, vegetables such as carrots, broccoli and eggs, seafood, fruits, oil, low-fat milk and cheese. Very sugary desserts are not common in this diet.
Japanese people are some of the longest-living people on the planet, with women up to 87 years old and men up to 80. The Japanese diet is the reason for such lengths of life. The diet has many foods that are low in calories and high in nutrients. Japanese people eat a lot of seaweed, tofu, rice, vegetables and fish. The tradition there is to stop eating when your stomach feels 80 percent full.
However, French people eat fatty foods but do not get fat. And they live a long time. This phenomenon is called the “French Paradox”. The reason why the French eat fatty foods without getting fat may be simple. They eat less. Serving sizes in French restaurants and in products sold in stores are smaller than those in most countries. And generally speaking, most French people do not snack. This means they do not eat food between meals.
28. What do we know about the healthiest diets around the world?
A. They contain abundant calories. B. They tend to be expensive.
C. They share certain similarities. D. They reflect popular tastes.
29. What is considered as a harmful eating habit in Japanese tradition?
A. Going low in calories. B. Eating to the fullest.
C. Having much seafood. D. Picking many foods.
30. How does the author develop the central idea in the last 4 Paragraphs?
A. By building connections. B. By exploring reasons.
C. By listing out examples. D. By analyzing figures.
31. Which can be the most suitable title for the text?
A. What is the healthiest diet on earth? B. How does the old expression serve?
C. Why is a healthy diet so important? D. Where can we plant ourselves well?
D
For people who are interested in sound, the field of sound technology is definitely making noise. In the past, sound engineers worked in the back rooms of recording studios, but many of today’s sound professionals are sharing their knowledge and experience with professionals in other fields to create new products based on the phenomenon we call sound.
Sound can be used as a weapon. Imagine that a police officer is chasing a thief. The thief tries to escape. And the officer can’t let him get away. He pulls out a special device, points it at the suspect, and switches it on. The thief drops to the ground. This new weapon is called a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD远程定向声波发射器). It produces a deafening sound so painful that it temporarily disables a person. The noise from the LRAD is directed like a ray of light and travels only into the ears of that person, but it is not deadly.
For those who hunger for some peace and quiet, sound can now create silence. Let’s say you are at the airport, and the little boy on the seat next to you is humming (哼唱) a short commercial song. He hums it over and over again, and you are about to go crazy. Thanks to the Silence Machine, a British invention, you can get rid of the sound without upsetting the boy or his parents. One may wonder how the Silence Machine works. Well, it functions by analyzing the waves of the incoming sound and creating a second set of outgoing waves. The two sets of waves cancel each other out. Simply turn the machine on point it at the target, and your peace and quiet comes back.
Directed sound is a new technology that allows companies to use sound in much the same way spotlights (聚光灯) are used in the theater. A spotlight lights up only one section of a stage; similarly, a “spotsound” creates a circle of sound in one targeted area. This can be useful for businesses such as restaurants and stores because it offers a new way to attract customers. Restaurants can offer a choice of music along with the various food choices on the menu, allowing customers more control over the atmosphere in which they are dining. Directed sound is also beginning to appear in shopping centers and even at homes.
32. What could be inferred from Paragraph 2 about the effect of the LRAD?
A. It causes temporary hearing loss. B. It slows down a running man.
C. It makes it easy to identify a suspect. D. It keeps the suspect from hurting others.
33. The Silence Machine is a device specially designed to _______.
A. silence the people around you B. remove the sound of commercials
C. block the incoming sound waves D. stop unwanted sound from affecting you
34. What feature do spotsounds and spotlights share?
A. They travel in circles. B. They clear the atmosphere.
C. They can be transformed into energy. D. They can be directed onto a specific area.
35. What does the passage focus on?
A. How professionals invented sound products.
B. Inventions in the field of sound technology.
C. The growing interest in the study of sound.
D. How sound engineers work in their studios.

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。选项中两项为多余选项。
Has this ever happened to you? You’ve been studying hard for your midterm, but when you walk into your exam, your mind goes blank, your heart races fast, you get sweaty palms and find it hard to breathe. 36
Everyone feels stressed during exams. Usually, it results from a fear of failure, lack of adequate preparation time and bad experiences taking tests in the past. This is normal and often helps you work harder, think faster and generally improve your performance. 37 You may also feel that other people are managing the exam better than you. This can cause you to feel that your mind has “gone blank” on information you know you have revised.
38 Some choose to ignore the problem, while others don’t review because they think they will do badly anyway and even miss exams due to the anxiety. It can also be really easy to think that if you don’t try and then you fail, you won’t feel as bad as if you fail after trying really hard.
So what can you do to fight against the negative mindset and stay calm before and during your test?  39 Yes, this seems obvious, but it’s worth repeating. If you feel confident that you’ve prepared thoroughly, you’ll feel more confident walking into the test. The second tip is simple: just start. The blank page can maximize your anxiety. 40 You can always go back and change things later if needed, but a few quick answers can get the ball rolling. Besides, allocating (分配) your time is equally important. Look through the whole test before getting started. Mentally allocate how much time you’ll spend on each section. If there’s time to recheck, even better.
A. The first thing you should do is to be prepared.
B. People often deal with exam stress in many unhelpful ways.
C. If these classic signs of exam anxiety sound familiar, you’re not alone!
D. Therefore, people need an appropriate amount of pressure to help deal with exams.
E. Realizing time is almost up and that there’s still a lot of blank space will make you desperate.
F. However, if you are overly anxious about the result, you may be unable to focus on your work.
G. After you get the paper, dive right in by getting some questions done to build up your confidence.

My faith in human nature has never been so great as it was last weekend after our family get-together in the town of Vail.

As we exited from the parking garage, we could see the fountain as we walked down the long staircase. I saw something black 52 there, but it was right next to a woman standing by the fountain, so I could not 53 what it was or if it was hers.

I actually 57 when we reached it and it was his! Everyone in our party was blown away by this “miracle”. In my wildest 58 , I would never have imagined that this could happen nowadays.

Few people I know seem to have much desire or time to cook. Making Chinese 61
(dish) is seen as especially troublesome. Many westerners 62 come to China cook much less than in their own countries once they realize how cheap 63 can be to eat out. I still remember 64 (visit) a friend who’d lived here for five years and I  65  (shock) when I learnt she hadn’t cooked once in all that time.
While regularly eating out seems to 66 (become) common for many young people in recent years, it’s not without a cost. The obvious one is money; eating out once or twice a week may be 67 (afford) but doing this most days adds up. There could be an even 68 (high) cost on your health. Researchers have found that there is a direct link between the increase in food eaten outside the home and the rise in 69 (weigh) problems.
If you are not going to suffer this problem, then I suggest that the next time you go to your mum’s home 70 dinner, get a few cooking tips from her. Cooking food can be fun. You might also begin to notice the effects not only on your health but in your pocket.

Ladies and gentleman,
I’m so excited that our drama club won the first prize in this English drama competition.
No sweat, no sweet. Before the competition we kept on practicing for a long time. Luckily, our efforts paid off, which, to be honest, is beyond our expectations. What’s more, we learned a lot from this competition. On one hand, participating in the drama competition helps me to learn more about western culture, improve my English and develop my self-confidence as well. On the other hand, thanks to the drama club, I have known many friends who share the same interest with me. There we communicate and learn from each other.
Finally, I’d like to express my thanks to all of our teachers who directed me, our friends who helped me, and our partners who worked hard. Without you, we couldn’t have made such a great achievement.
Thank you so much, again, and I am looking forward to more activities like this.
