Places to avoid travelling
India
The main distinction in wealth and class may explain some of the risk of crimes in this country. But according to John Gobbels, vice president and chief operating officer for Medjet (an international emergency service), it’s medical safety that actually makes India so dangerous. He explains that the U. S. State Department gives the country Level 2 travel advisory status. (Level 1 means you should exercise normal precautions（预防措施）；Level 4 is “ do not go ” .)
Hawaii
Considering this destination is a very hot spot for honeymooners, it might be surprising to see the Big Island of Hawaii as a dangerous place to visit. The eruption of a volcano has put Kilauea in a state of emergency, with poisonous gas, lava flows, and earthquakes all a risk. You’ll likely see special airline deals cancelled, so think twice before making this flight.
Acapulco
This beach resort town on Mexico’s Pacific coast isn’t exactly the white-sand party destination it once was. With a Level 4 travel advisory, Gobbels explains, it’s in the same category as places like Iran, Syria, and North Korea. It’s regarded as the murder capital of the country.
Cairo, Egypt
According to a recent report from the Thomson Reuters Foundation, Cairo is considered the most insecure city for women in the world. Even though the political tensions are easing in this area, according to Gobbels, sexual violence and cultural expectations make it extremely problematic, for both locals and visitors.
1.According to John Gobbels, what should visitors pay special attention to in India?
A.Personal belongings. B.Travel insurance.
C.Cultural difference. D.Medical safety.
2.Which place mentioned above is especially dangerous for a woman tourist?
A.India. B.Cairo.
C.Acapulco. D.Hawaii.
3.What can be inferred from the text?
A.Syria isn’t a risky destination where you’ll have a wonderful vacation.
B.The political unrest in Cairo is responsible for its insecurity at present.
C.A Level 3 travel advisory indicates you can go with normal precautions.
D.The flights to Hawaii may be changeable due to the eruption of the volcano.
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Excited screams of joy，the sounds of two happy little girls playing in the sand，rang across the beach. But I walked along，barely aware of it. I'd come to this remote beach on my sailboat，a place to escape. My wife and I had recently separated，our marriage in trouble. I worried about my two boys，just six and eight. It seemed like forever since I'd heard them laugh. But I didn't know what to do to make things better.
“Help！Help！”The girls shouted. I'd meant to tell them to stay away from the dangerous water. Now one of them was in the ocean，beyond the surf line. I could just hear her screams over the waves. Any second now she'd be swept away. I ran across the sand as fast as I could. The other girl was at the edge of the surf line，yelling.
“Wait！Stop！Don't go any farther！”I charged into the waves and was reaching for her when a wall of water dashed over us. For half a second I saw her disappear under another big wave. I'm a strong swimmer, but I could feel the wave pulling me hard. I swam to her and seized her, her little body shaking, trembling. But where is the other girl? I saw a waving arm. A head broke the surface, not far away. The arms of the girl I'd rescued were wrapped desperately around my neck. She was breathing with sobs. “Let go of my neck. I need you on my back. Hold my shoulders so I can swim to your friend. ”
She loosed her hands and I shifted her to my back. “She's my sister, Sarah, and I am Lillian,” she said. For a moment I thought of my boys. How much they loved each other. How much I loved them.
I looked across the water and saw a small head after a big wave. I quickened my swimming，fighting for each breath. Tiny arms pressed against my shoulder. I reached out and held the second little girl. She was in total tiredness，taking deep breaths，crying quietly.

I don't remember how many examinations I've taken since I began my schooling. 1.I dare say that，in fact，almost no student likes examinations.
We often hear people say “Examinations are teachers' magic weapon（武器）”，so most of us may think it is our teachers who give us students so many examinations. 2. Since almost all of them had once been students before they became teachers. As I mentioned just now，we don't like examinations，and neither do our teachers, which may be clear. What's more, the more examinations we take, the more time will be taken from our teachers and the more trouble our teachers have to take. 3.
4. I think it is the system in our country that gives us students so many examinations. If there were no entrance examinations. and all the students could go up to the higher grades without competition, there would not be so many examinations in primary and middle schools.
5. Only in this way can examinations be greatly reduced, and then all the students will be happier.
A. And I can't agree more.
B. Then what's the reason for the large number of examinations？
C. To tell the truth. I don't like examinations at all.
D. So it is important and necessary to reform the test system.

F. So we can easily get the conclusion（结论）that teachers are not the ones who are to blame（责备）.
G. There are too many examinations which make us feel exhausted every day.
