Tourism can be both good and bad. Yes, it brings in money for the local economy and creates lots of jobs for locals.1. One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited a destination. They have used paints, rocks, or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt, the Colosseum in Rome, Stonehenge in the UK, and many, many other places. 2. Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing (打扰) the local people and life. Some tourists walk around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission(准许). For example, Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries, taking pictures of students, and disturbing their studies. 3. Some tourists love to party there late into the night, making it difficult for locals to sleep. 4.Walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by, crossing roads without thinking of local traffic laws, and many more, can be seen everywhere. The only way to solve the problem of terrible tourists is to make sure that you are not one ! 5. Remember, whenever you step out of your country, you are representing (代表) your country to the rest of the world. A. But it may also bring some problems. B. Pass kindness along to future generations. C. Thousands of tourist sites are being destroyed. D. Be the best, kindest, most polite tourist possible. E. The number of problems from tourists is endless. F. Enjoy the excellent food, and go shopping at the local markets. G. Another example is Sanlitun, a neighborhood in Beijing, China.
The importance of reading literature often seems lost on many Chinese people. Even experts in education think that the first goal of education is to encourage a love of learning. There is therefore the possibility of something wrong with the way students are taught here. Why should they read literature? Do stories have value compared with the reading and learning of facts? Studies show clearly that the most powerful ways of learning are by experience, action and doing experiments and taking risks. Yet there are so many important things to learn that cannot be learned in these ways: feelings, problem solving, danger and relationships, for example. Research into this has shown how deep reading is a valuable experience different to a learning of words or facts. Keen( 热心的) readers of -literature show a better understanding of others. Their abilities to make good decisions are raised. Young children who enjoy a parent reading stories to them show greater awareness（意识) when they reach school age. The best schools do seem to provide a limited (有限的) chance to enjoy literature, usually about the Chinese classic stories but there is not enough "free" time for students. There are enough reading materials (材料). Chinese book shops are full of story books, and most of them are of good quality (质量) in terms of content,plot (情节) and language. Was there not a Chinese author who received a Nobel Prize for literature recently? There are moves in Chinese education to promote (提升) decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China. 1.What does the author think of the way students are educated in China? A.He is proud of it. B.He is interested in it. C.He doesn't quite accept it. D.He is confident about it. 2.Which is not among the most powerful ways of learning according to paragraph 2? A.By experience. B.By taking risks. C.By reading deeply. D.By doing experiments. 3.What can be learned from the last paragraph? A.Reading literature helps develop good values. B.Chinese students like reading stories as they get older. C.Stories in Chinese bookstores are generally of poor quality. D.Chinese students have no chance to read enough materials. 4.What's the main idea of the text? A.Literature is a kind of art. B.Reading literature should be valued. C.Good reading materials are in great need. D.Something is wrong with Chinese education.

Here's the story of my growth over the past year. If anyone is inspired (激励) by this, that's wonderful. I'd been stuck as this under-confident, fat and just frightened girl for years and years and years. Since I was a little girl, I'd been stuck like this, and I had lived a life where I'd be afraid of everything. But then it all started changing. Something clicked, and in over a period of 6 months I finally managed to stick to one of my diets, bringing me from overweight straight down to underweight. This proved ( 证明) that I could change myself. One single time, I heard about a public speaking thing going on at my university, and for the first time, I managed to keep up the courage to go there. For the first time I was able to share my story, and able to do it in front of so many people possibly judging (评判) me, and suddenly all the fears about speaking publicly started vanishing. I never felt more confident. This taught me I could get rid （去除） of my fears. It was from that point on that my road to change went from a rocky mess to a full-on empty highway. Using the fact that I could change, and that I could get rid of my fears, I started working on them one by one. My fear of talking to strangers ,my fear of asking simple questions, my fear of hanging out with people, my fear of being myself... All of them were gone. And I still continue to progress to this day. I've never stopped. 1.When did the author know she could change herself? A.When she was in her childhood. B.When she refused a diet.

D.The author started changing rapidly. 4.What's the purpose of the text? A.To inspire the readers. B.To prove a new idea. C.To teach how to speak publicly. D.To show how to get rid of fears.

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。 The bell rang, announcing the end of the vivid art class Karson loved most. He was delighted that he had created a very satisfying work. So he walked to the back of the classroom to put his work away carefully. There, lying on the carpet in front of the classroom bookcase, was a golden ticket! Karson picked it up. His heart beat faster when he saw that the name line was blank. He couldn’t believe his luck! The boys and girls in Karson’s class could earn golden tickets by doing well in their study or by being extra helpful or kind. Once a week their teacher drew a ticket out of a box on her desk and let the winner choose a prize. Today was the golden ticket drawing, and here was another ticket, just for him! Karson looked around. No one else was near the ticket. All his classmates were at their desks, laughing and talking with each other. Miss Evans was engaged in grading the papers collected earlier in the morning. Karson decided to write his name on the blank line. Then he could put it into the prize box with the six tickets he’d already earned. With so many chances, one of his tickets would most probably be picked! Then he could choose the pink toy pig for his sister’s birthday, just like he had been hoping. He smiled and reached for the pencil in his pocket. Suddenly his fingers stopped. There was a strange feeling in his chest, and it wasn’t his heartbeat. It’s finders keepers, right? He wondered. He looked out of the window and tried to figure it out. On the one hand, he did find the ticket, but he hadn’t earned it. Somebody must have lost it. But on the other hand, he did need this extra ticket for his great plan! 注意: 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语； 3. 续写部分分为两段，每段开头语己为你写好: 4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: Karson stared at the blank name line for a moment. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: “Karson, I’d like you to have another ticket!” Miss Evans said. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

It is an old expression about some people who are highly motivated about work in itself with the opposite view of someone who works to live. 1. But answering it honestly and accurately is critical to making intelligent career choices, and to your ultimate happiness in life. Unfortunately, many people lack the self-knowledge and realistic expectations necessary to address this vital issue properly. Certain people, it is said, live to work. Their lives center on their work or careers and that achievement in their professions is a major source of satisfaction and meaning in their lives 2. In some cases, achieving huge levels of pay is considered more as a means of proving your worth than it is for the money itself. By contrast, other people work to live. These people view their work or careers largely as toil whose purpose is to earn the money necessary to support themselves and their dependents. Their real interests lie elsewhere. 3. Some of these people try to cut comers, to gain the maximum pay for the minimum amount of effort. Others do indeed take great pride in their work and put great effort into doing their jobs well, but their jobs simply are not the centers of their lives. 4. Examples abound of individuals who lose their native passion for work because they cannot find an adequate position or pay in their preferred fields of endeavor. When they settle for jobs in other fields, they often do so strictly for benefits, such as compensation (补偿). 5. A. It’s critical to understand it. B. Money may not be a motivation. C. They may develop-a same attitude. D. And their work or careers are only means to an end, not an end in itself. E. There is no right or wrong answer to the question of which attitude is better. F. The answer for a given individual may differ based on his or her circumstances. G. Many individuals used to work to live but after a change of career start living to work.
It’s not often sunny in Paris, but people still love to walk along the bank of the Seine. They love the view of the city’s old buildings, especially Notre Dame Cathedral, with its iconic spire (标志性塔尖). Unfortunately, that view has been forever changed. On April 16 a fire destroyed the spire of the 850-year-old wooden Notre Dame Cathedral built in 1163, and two-thirds of the roof. The fire shocked and saddened Parisians. Citizens gathered around the giant church, singing hymns (赞美诗) and praying for the hundreds of firefighters who fought the flames. “The importance of Notre Dame, not only to Catholics (天主教) but to all Parisians, cannot be underestimated (低估),” wrote French author Bernard-Henri Levy. “For many in France, it’s more than a house of worship. It’s a symbol of French culture, architecture and history.” The church is also home to many religious artworks, paintings and sculptures. Luckily, its world-famous colored glass windows survived the fire. These windows are made of many small pieces of glass and feature various Christian images. Despite its long history and many treasures, the Cathedral needed the help of a writer to become truly famous. Victor Hugo’s 1831 novel, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, presented the building to a wide audience of readers. The book’s ugly lead character, Quasimodo, serves as a symbol for Paris’ forgotten Gothic (哥特式的) architecture. Hugo wrote the book to remind people of it, with the hope that they would work to protect the beautiful old buildings of Paris French President Emmanuel Macron has promised to reconstruct the historic building. “Note Dame is our history, our literature and it’s our imagery,” he said in a public speech following the fire. 1.Which of the following is true about Notre Dame Cathedral? A.It is a representative architecture of France. B.It is made of wood and metal. C.It is a place for entertainment. D.It will be rebuilt in a different style. 2.What makes the Cathedral known to the world? A.Its famous spire. B.Its colored glass windows. C.Victor Hugo’s novel. D.Religious treasures inside. 3.What’s the writer’s attitude towards the damage to the church? A.Uncaring. B.Regretful. C.Negative. D.Optimistic.

There are so many expressions in American English that sound good but are not. “Face the music” is a good example. When someone says they have to face the music, it does not mean they are going to a musical show or concert. To face the music means to accept the bad results of an action. Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, “Thanks so much for watching my car while I’m away. But please do not drive it. It is a very fast car and you are not on the insurance (保险).” But you do not listen. You want to show it to some friends and pretend (假装) the car is yours. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. The damage is serious. When your friend returns you must tell her what you have done and “face the music”. The “music” here is the result of your actions. It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both. Whatever the music is, you must face it. There are other American expressions that mean the same as “face the music”. To “take your medicine” means to accept the results from something bad you have done. And if someone says, “You made your bed. Now lie in it.” He means you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results, or as we say in American spoken English, you must deal with it! “Pay the piper” also means the same as “face the music”. But, that expression has its own very interesting beginning. We will talk about that in the next Words and Their Stories. 1.What’s the main idea of this text? A.To invite a friend to go to a musical performance. B.To tell people how to deal with a bad situation. C.To give people a lesson on an action. D.To introduce some expressions. 2.Which action belongs to “take your medicine”? A.You broke the traffic rules and caused an accident. B.You worked hard but failed in the exam. C.You caught a cold and took some medicine. D.You moved to a new city and lost touch with your old friends. 3.What may the next programme talk about? A.Other words and their stories. B.The beginning of “pay the piper”. C.The wider use of “face the music”. D.An example of “take your medicine”.

Girls can easily get sad. If your friend is feeling blue and calls you, what will you do? Here are some tips on how you can make her smile again. Listen to her. When people feel sad, they often have the feeling of needing to be heard. So, listen carefully to what she is saying and do nothing else. Your friend will surely thank you for being the shoulder she can cry on. Once you are done with listening, you can offer some advice or remain silent and let her feel everything and let it all out by crying. As a friend, you might think you should give her some advice. But if you have no idea about what to say, just remain silent and be there for her. In order to be able to help your friend in need, don’t be sad for yourself. How can you help your friend when you are also feeling down? A hug can make a difference in the word. It makes you feel warm and special. A hug makes you feel safe. So give your friend a hug when she needs it the most. Spend more time with your friend who wants to be happy. Do things together like washing dishes, cleaning, or going out for fun. The more time you spend together, the stronger your friendship will become. Sometimes, it is much better that you avoid a crying friend in your life. But by doing so, you are also keeping your friend at a distance and will make her wonder if you are her true friend.

阅读表达：阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Why not carry on her good work？ I enjoyed English，biology，and chemistry at school，but which one should I choose to study at university？I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China. By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi，a specialist in women's diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career，traveling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them caught my eye. It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean，healthy and free from sicknees. Why did she write that？Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice？I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor. Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time. That was a generation when girls' education was always placed second to boys. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else? Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school. What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired after a day's work, went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her. By now I could not wait to find out more about her. I discovered that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a family of her own. Instead she made sure that about 50,000 babies were safely delivered. By this time I was very excited. Why not study at a medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work？It was still not too late for me to improve my studies，prepare for the university entrance examinations，and …… 1.When and where did the author read the article about Lin Qiaozhi？（no more than 5 words） 2.For what purpose did Lin Qiao zhi write a little book about how to look after babies？（no more than 20 words） 3.What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean？（no more than 10 words） 4.What does the author think are the most important qualities that a successful doctor should have？（no more than 5 words） 5.Do you think the author will study at a medical college？Why or why not？（no more than 20 words）
A Harvard study of their graduates over thirty years found that there were only a small percentage (3%) of them who actually wrote down their goals-and these were the most successful! You can be certain that every one of those students had repeatedly heard the value of goal setting. Yet only 3% actually wrote down their goals consistently. Imagine what you can do if you both write down your goals and, then, focus on them consistently, until they are accomplished! What is it that causes the "New Year's Resolution Syndrome"? People make resolutions, work hard at them for a few weeks, maybe even a few months, and then forget them. Next year, they make the same New Year's resolutions. That is the syndrome. So why do so many people do it? They may be making goals that are too global, and too unrealistic. The elephant analogy (比喻) is still the best one I know of to illustrate good goal setting. "How do you eat an elephant? One spoonful at a time." So it is with goals. Make spoon size goals and accomplish them easily. Once you've mastered this, get a bigger spoon! You may have too many people in your life who consciously or subconsciously are unwilling or unable to support you to reach your goals. Surround yourself with people who want you to have what you want for yourself. Support each other and you'll all achieve your highest goals. We must be careful not to confuse busyness with progress. Be selective about how you use your time and what you focus on. Success often comes when you know what to leave out, rather than what to include in your life. Goal setting is like the pig and chicken who were out for a walk in town early one morning. The chicken became really excited when she saw a sign that said "Ham & Eggs, $2.99". She said to the pig, "Look, we've got double billing again." The pig grunted and said, "That's all right for you to say. For you, it's all in a day's work. For me, it's total commitment." Goal setting is all in a day's work. Goal achievement is total commitment. 1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A.Few Harvard students know the importance of setting goals. B.Writing down goals is unhelpful in achieving them. C.A very small percentage of Harvard students can succeed. D.Keeping working on goals eventually leads to victory. 2.What can we know about New Year's resolutions? A.They are really difficult to achieve. B.Most people give them up halfway. C.They should be different from year to year. D.Most people make no effort to achieve them. 3.According to the elephant analogy, when setting goals, we should _. A.ask for others' advice B.set great and worthy goals C.break a big goal into smaller pieces D.refer to the goals we set earlier 4.What does the story of the pig and chicken imply? A.Rome is not built in one day. B.When the cat is away, the mice will play. C.The early bird catches the worm. D.Birds of a feather flock together. 5.What can be the best title for this passage? A.Goals only work when you do! B.Surroundings contribute to success! C.Ways to make New Year's resolutions D.Suggestions for setting realistic goals
