My First Ride t Malaysia by Train
There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their hmes and they made it their business t stand alng the railway, wave t cmplete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed twards Penang. ①Often whle families std utside their hmes and waved and smiled as if thse n the trains were their favrite relatives. This is the simple village peple f Malaysia. I was mved.
I had always traveled t Malaysia by plane r car, s this was the first time I was n a train. I did nt particularly relish the lng train jurney and had brught alng a dzen magazines t read and reread. I lked abut the train. There was nt ne familiar face. I sighed and sat dwn t read my Ecnmics.
②It was nt lng befre the train was acrss the Causeway and in Malaysia. Jhre Baru (柔佛巴鲁——马来西亚城市)was just anther city like Singapre, s I ③was tired f lking at the crwds f peple as they hurried past. As we went beynd the city, I watched the straight rws f rubber trees and miles and miles f green. Then the first village came int sight. Immediately I came alive, I decided t wave back.
Frm then n my jurney became interesting. I threw my magazines int the waste basket and decided t ④jin in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The muntains seemed t speak t me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was lking at it fr the first time.
The day passed fast and I even frgt t have my lunch until I felt hungry. I lked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Sn the train pulled up at Butterwrth. I lked at the peple all arund me. They all lked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms arund him t give him a warm hug. I had never dne this befre. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm t his car.
I ⑤lked frward t the return jurney.
第一次坐火车去马来西亚
一路行来,到处可见微笑的孩子们。他们清楚地知道火车经过他们家门的时间,那个时候就会站在铁路边向那些素昧平生的驶向槟榔屿的旅客们挥手欢呼。他们还常常会全家出动,站在门外挥手、微笑,好像火车上是他们最爱的亲人。这就是马来西亚淳朴的村民,我为之感动。
之前我总是乘飞机或开车去马来西亚,这是我第一次坐火车。我特别不喜欢长途火车旅行,于是带上了一堆读过的、没读过的杂志,来消磨时光。我四下环顾,车厢里没有一张熟悉的面孔。我叹了口气,坐下来继续读那本《经济学》。
不久之后,火车穿越新柔长堤,进入了马来西亚半岛。柔佛巴鲁是一个像新加坡一样的城市,车外人群熙熙攘攘,我丝毫提不起兴趣。穿过这座城市之后,一排排橡胶树、绵延数里的绿地映入了我的眼帘。随后我看到了第一个村庄,这时我立刻来了精神,我决定也向他们挥手致意。
从那时起,我的旅程就开始变得有趣了。我把那些杂志扔进垃圾桶,决定融入马来西亚的生活。从此一切都开始充满了生机。青山好像在和我说话,树木也好像在向我微笑。我新奇地看着车外的一切,就好像是第一次看到它们一样。
时间过得很快,直到感觉到饥肠辘辘的时候,我才想起还没有吃午饭。我看了看手表,吃惊地发现已经是下午3点了。不久火车在巴特沃思停了下来。我看着周围的人们。他们看起来是那样美丽。当叔叔面带微笑出现在我面前时,我抱住他,给了他一个大大的拥抱。以前我可从没有这样做过。他似乎有些吃惊,不过很快在他饱经风霜的脸上就浮现出了温暖而开心的笑容。我们挽着手臂朝他的车走去。
我已经开始期待回程之旅了。

The Oasis f the Seas has virtually everything a turist can dream f. Biggest attractin is a giant pen-air theatre fr 750 passengers that is a swimming pl by day and an entertainment arena at night. Passengers can wander thrugh a park full f real trees and extic plants, eat and drink in 24 restaurants r travel up and dwn between decks in a mvable bar.

The best and latest technlgy makes the Oasis f the Seas ne f the mst mdern ships n the seas. But, the captain says, it’s very easy t maneuvre because everything is autmated and runs with cmputers.

世界上最大的游轮
海洋绿洲号是世界上最大的游轮。它最多可搭载6 200名乘客。由2000多名机组人员为这些游客服务。该船大于世界上任何其他游轮的40%,重达225,000吨,是泰坦尼克号的5倍大。它共拥有15层甲板,高达二十层高的大楼。
该船在芬兰建造,属于皇家加勒比国际游轮。它于2009年12月初进行了首航。 该船驻扎在佛罗里达州劳德代尔堡,从那里继续为期一周的加勒比海巡航。
海洋绿洲号上几乎有游客所梦想的一切。它的最大的吸引处是一个可以容纳750乘客的巨大的露天剧场。在白天它是一个游泳池,而在夜间它是娱乐竞技场。乘客可以漫步在充满了真正的树和异国情调的植物的公园中,吃喝在24家餐馆中或旅行在甲板之间一个可移动的酒吧中。船上有为每人提供的小型的高尔夫球场、篮球场、溜冰场和两堵攀岩墙。母亲可以把孩子留在托儿所,而他们却去船上的精品店去购物。
最好的和最新的技术使海洋绿洲号成为海洋上最现代化的船舶之一。 但是,船长说,它非常容易操纵,因为一切都是自动化的,在计算机上运行。
该船的所有者希望海洋绿洲号赚很多钱。超过150亿美元建造的船舶成本,起拍价约1700欧元,一个9天的巡航,它并不便宜。但是,在世界上最大的船上度过假期,应该是值得的。

My mther always said, "Yu yung men shuld explre yur wn cuntry befre stepping ut int the wrld." It seemed like a tugh task. But luckily fr me, Via Rail Canada ffered yuths between the ages f 18 and 25 the chance t ride the train acrss Canada fr the mnth f July in 2017. I jumped at the pprtunity and secured an inexpensive ticket.
Excitement was at its peak as I apprached the train statin n the mrning when my 22-day adventure was t begin. I jumped n bard the passenger vessel (车厢) like it was the train t Hgwarts in Harry Ptter. The train headed west in search f ur first destinatin — the scenic twn f Banff, Alberta. After just an hur n the train, desperatin already came n me. The thught f three full days n thse tracks brke my spirits. As I gazed ut twards Lake Superir's glistening (闪闪发亮) waves, I decided if I was t be stuck in here, I wuld need t enjy my time.
Thse three days turned int a summer camp n rails. Real friendships with the crew were brn within that train. Stps were made in small, remte railrad villages. A large grup f strangers turned travelling cmpanins wuld rush twards the villages t reward ur endless patience with lcal cuisine. At night, we wuld walk t the glass-dmed (玻璃穹顶) train car,which gave a scenic view f the night sky, untuched by light pllutin.
After three days, we arrived in Banff. Befre my adventure f taking the train acrss Canada, if I culd have skipped the travel and arrived at the destinatin, I wuld have. But that is n lnger true. I've learned that the jurney can be mre enjyable than the destinatin.
1.What made the authr's train trip pssible?
A.The attractin f the splendid scenery.B.A time-limited ticket ffer fr yuths.
C.The encuragement frm his mther.D.His determinatin t face the tugh tasks.
2.Which f the fllwing best describes the authr as a yung man?
A.Cnsiderate.B.Determined.
C.Smart.D.Adaptable.
3.What has the authr learned frm his adventure?

Fifteen years ag, I tk a summer vacatin in Lecce in suthern Italy. After climbing up a hill fr a panramic(全景的) view f the blue sea, white buildings and green live trees, I paused t catch my breath and then psitined myself t take the best pht f this panrama.
Unfrtunately, just as I tk ut my camera, a wman apprached frm behind, and planted herself right in frnt f my view. Like me, this wman was here t stp, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after abut 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the sht I wuld eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it t much t ask her t mve s I culd take just ne picture f the landscape? Sure, I culd have asked her, but smething prevented me frm ding s. She seemed s cntent in her bservatin. I didn’t want t mess with that.
Anther 15 minutes passed and I grew bred. The wman was still there. I decided t take the pht anyway. And nw when I lk at it, I think her presence in the pht is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful n its wn, smehw cmes t life and breathes because this wman is engaging with it.
This pht, with the unique beauty that unflded befre me and that wman wh “ruined” it, nw hangs n a wall in my bedrm. What wuld she think if she knew that her figure is captured(捕捉) and frzen n sme stranger’s bedrm wall? A bedrm, after all, is a very private space, in which sme wman I dn’t even knw has been immrtalized(使……永存). In sme ways, she lives in my huse.
Perhaps we all live in each thers’ spaces. Perhaps this is what phts are fr: t remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a cmmn desire fr pleasure, fr cnnectin, fr smething that is greater than us.
That pht is a reminder, a captured mment, an unspken cnversatin between tw wmen, separated nly by a thin square f glass.

A.Her camera stpped wrking.
B.A wman blcked her view.

6.In the authr’s pinin, what makes the pht s alive?
A.The rich clr f the landscape.
B.The perfect psitining f the camera.
C.The wman’s existence in the pht.
D.The sft sunlight that summer day.
7.The pht n the bedrm wall enables the authr t better understand ____________.

If yu haven’t heard r seen anything abut Rad Rage in the last few mnths, yu’ve prbably been aviding the media. There have been cuntless stries abut this scary phenmenn, cnsidered a type f aggressive driving. Yu have mst likely encuntered aggressive driving r Rad Rage recently if yu drive at all.
While drunk driving remains a critical prblem, the facts abut aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. Fr instance, accrding t the Natinal Highway Transprtatin Safety Assciatin, 41,907 peple died n the highway last year. Of thse deaths, the agency estimates that abut tw-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavir.
Why is this phenmenn ccurring mre than ever nw, and why is it smething that seemed almst nnexistent a few shrt years ag? Experts have several theries, and all are prbably partially crrect. One suggestin is vercrwding. In the last decade, the number f cars n the rads has increased by mre than 11 percent, and the number f miles driven has increased by 35 percent. Hwever, the number f new rad miles has nly increased by 1 percent. That means mre cars in the same amunt f space; and the prblem is mre serius in urban areas. Als, peple have less time and mre things t d. With peple wrking and trying t fit extra chres and activities int the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads t shrt tempers. These factrs, when cmbined in certain situatins, can spell Rad Rage.
Yu may think yu are the last persn wh wuld drive aggressively, but yu might be surprised. Fr instance, have yu ever yelled ut lud at a slwer driver, sunded the hrn lng and hard at anther car, r sped up t keep anther driver frm passing? If yu recgnize yurself in any f these situatins, watch ut!
Whether yu are getting angry at ther drivers, r anther driver is visibly upset with yu, there are things yu can d t avid any majr cnflict. If yu are susceptible (易受影响的)t Rad Rage, the key is t discharge yur emtin in a healthy way. If yu are the target f anther driver’s rage, d everything pssible t get away frm the ther driver safely, including aviding eye cntact and getting ut f their way.
8.The first sentence in Para. 1 implies that ______.
A.ne may be angered by media reprts and wants t avid them
B.the media invented the term “Rad Rage” nly a few mnths ag
C.peple nt interested in the media knw little abut recent happenings
D.Rad Rage has received much media cverage in the last few mnths
9.The underlined wrd “spell” in Para. 3 means ________.
A.relieveB.preventC.spreadD.cause
10.Which f the fllwing characterizes aggressive driving?
A.Talking while driving.B.Driving at high speed.
C.Sunding the hrn when passing.D.Shuting at anther driver.
11.The last paragraph is intended t _________.
A.tell peple hw t deal with Rad Rage
B.infrm peple hw aggressive drivers culd be
C.shw peple hw t cntrl themselves when angry
