I'm pretty sure everyone wants to visit Europe at least once in their lifetime. Here's a list of the most amazing places to visit in Europe.

Riviera

Wow, this is such a beautiful place in Italy. The Cinque Terre is a very beautiful national park, which connects five beautiful villages. Walking paths connect the villages, follow the coastline and offer hikes through hills. The villages remain unaffected by tourism.

Tuscany

Another Italian region, Tuscany is simply attractive. The buildings there are amazing, and the culture is special. From the historical center of Florence to the Cathedral of Pisa, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Make sure you check out the nature reserves, and enjoy a few bottles of the very famous wine.

Lauterbrunnen

Since a school trip here, I've always wanted to revisit this city in Switzerland. The city always seems as if it's trapped in time. There are untouched fountains and springs everywhere, and a huge number of waterfalls and valleys. The area is very popular for skiing.

The Greek Islands

There are plenty of places to visit in Greece. But I love the Greek Islands best. White houses and beautiful churches, beaches and Aegean Sea make this a very popular place to visit. However, there is more to do here than just sunbathe. I cannot wait to go back and check out the caves and culture that make the Greek Islands one of the best places in Europe.

Venice

I am a big Italy lover, and Venice is another city that is not to be missed. It has its own share of history, art and attractive buildings. However, the attraction comes from the pedestrian (行人) — only streets and rivers filled with boats.

1. According to the passage, people who are interested in waterfalls and valleys would most probably go to _______.

A. Riviera        B. Tuscany   

C. Lauterbrunnen    D. the Greek Islands

2. From Paragraph 5 we learn that the Greek Islands_______.

A. hasn't been visited by the writer yet

B. is a good place for sunbathing

C. isn't worth exploring

D. has many waterfalls and valleys

3. What will you probably see when you are visiting Venice?

A. Royal Palace.

B. The Aegean Sea.

C. Streets without cars.

D. Busy traffic.

If you are one of those who want to know how to increase your vocabulary, there are some ways you may find useful. In fact, it is not that difficult to learn new words, but to remember them for a lifetime seems not to be so easy.

To make it easier, you can try word associations(联想). Try to find a connection between a new word and things or people you know. For example, if your neighbour is an unselfish person who cares about the needs of other people, think about this person every time you see the word, and very soon you'll start actively using it.

Try to use the words you learn as often as possible. Perhaps you are not sure which situations they should be used in, or whether you pronounce(发音) them correctly, but practice is the best way to understand that. It is not enough to find out the meaning of a word. You should hammer (敲打) it into your mind by using it in actual conversations in everyday life.

Also, it may be helpful to know the meaning of the word roots, prefixes (前缀) and suffixes  (后缀), especially if they have a Greek or Latin origin(起源). Even if you meet a long unfamiliar word, it will be easy to know its meaning if you know the general meaning of its parts.  For example, if you see the word "philanthropy", it won't be difficult to surmise what it means if you know that "anthropo" means "human" and "philo" means "loving". Not only can ancient Greek and Latin be helpful, but a number of modern languages as well. So, if you speak French,  Italian, Spanish or Portuguese, guess the meaning of an unfamiliar English word if it sounds like  a word from another language you know.

1. Which of the following old sayings can show the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A. Every dog has his day.

B. Practice makes perfect.

C. Every coin has two sides.

D. Where there is a will there is a way.

2. According to the last paragraph, what does the writer think is important?

A. Learning to use several different modern languages.

B. Learning some very difficult words in the English language.

C. Knowing the meaning of the word roots, prefixes and suffixes.

D. paying more attention to words that have a Greek or Latin origin.

3.The underlined word "surmise" in the last paragraph means_______.

A. guess    B. suggest   

C. prove        D. remember

4. what's the writer's purpose in writing the passage?

A. To tell us how he or she learnt English well.

B. To explain why it is not hard to learn new words.

C. To prove that learning new words can be really fun.

D. To tell us some good ways of remembering new words.

Usually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer. But there is one question that has millions of current answers. That question is "What's your name?" Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct.

Have you ever wondered about people's names? Where do they come from? What do they

mean?

People's first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used. Some parents choose the name of a well-known person. A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.

Some people give their children names that mean good things. Clara means "bright"; Beatrice means "one who gives happiness"; Donald means "world ruler"; Leonard means "as brave as a lion".

The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names. A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near brook (СϪ); someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road. The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.

Other early surnames came from people's occupations. The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village. Some other occupational names are: Carter - a person who owned or drove a cart(手推车); Potter -a person who made pots and pans.

The ancestors (祖先) of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village. The Carpenter's great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.

Sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities. When there were two men who were named John in the same village, the John with the gray hair probably became John Gray. Or the John was very tall could call himself John

Tallman. John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast

runner or a good dancer.

Some family names were made by adding something to the father's name. English-speaking people added -s or -son. The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family's ancestor was Robert. Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O. Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O'Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.

1.Which of the following aspects(方面)do the surnames in the passage NOT cover?

A. Places where people lived.

B. People's characters.

C. Talents that people had.

D. People's occupations.

2. According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably _______.

A. owned or drove a cart

B. made things with metals

C. made kitchen tools or contains

D. built houses and furniture

3.If an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader, the baby might be named _______.

A. Beatrice Smith

B. Leonard Carter

C. George Longstreet

D. Donald Greenwood

4. The underlined word "descendants" in the last paragraph means a person's _______.

A.后代    B.朋友    C.同事    D.同伴
