5.Amsterdam is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world,famous for its beautiful canals,top art museum,cycling culture,and Red Light District.It is the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands and often referred to as the"Venice of the North"because of its expansive system of bridges and canals.Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.
Peak SeasonPopulationLanguage(s)CurrencyJanuary ClimateJuly Climate
May to October813,562DutchEuroAverage high:5.8°CAverage high:22.0°C
Must-See Attractions
Most visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre,which is full of traditional architecture,shopping centers,and coffee shops.Don't miss the Dam Square and the areas around Spui and Nieuwmarkt.The infamous Red Light District is also in this area,and definitely worth a visit to see what the hype (炒作) is about.You'll also want to check out Amsterdam's Museum Quarter in the South District,which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark.The top museums to visit are the Rijksmusuem,the Ann Frank House,and the Van Gogh Museum.
If You Have Time
There are several other unique districts in Amsterdam,and you should try to explore as many of them as time allows.The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a hub for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.The Plantage area has most of the city's museums,including the Jewish Historical Museum,the Scheepvaart Museum,and the botanical gardens.
Free Things to Do
•Have a picnic and bring a bottle of wine to relax and people-watch in Vondelpark
•Soak up some sun at one of the city's beaches
•Take a stroll along the canals,smell the flowers,and browse markets along the way
•Hop on one of several free ferry services across the IJ River for lovely city views
Transportation 
Travelers should be aware that Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is one of the busiest airports in the world.This airport is located about 15kilometers southwest of city center.You can catch a train from Schiphol to Amsterdam Central Station,which has many connecting routes.It's typically not a good idea to drive a car to the city center because traffic is congested and parking is difficult to find.Cycling is incredibly popular here,and it's easy to find cheap bike rentals around town.Amsterdam has a flat terrain and is a great city to explore on foot.
Money Saving Tips
•Unless you really want to see the tulips blooming,avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May.This is when hotel and flight prices surge.
•Look for accommodations in Amsterdam's South District,where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.
•Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money
•Instead of hiring a tour guide,hop on a canal boat.They're inexpensive and will give you a unique point of view of the city.
•Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights,hotels,and rental cars before you book.

C.you must go to the Plantage area to appreciate Van Gogh's paintings
D.buying the train tickets at the counter is money-saving.
57.Which part is most likely missing from the passage above?D
A.City History.
B.Van Gogh's Life Story.
C.Cycling Culture
D.Recommended Restaurants.
6.A study finds that youngsters who have a sister are happier.
Why?The usual answer-that girls and women are more likely than boys and men to talk about emotions-is somehow unsatisfying,especially to a researcher like me.Much of my work over the years has developed the assumption that women's styles of friendship and conversation aren't letter than men's.
A man once told me that he had spent a day with a friend who was newly divorced.When he returned home,his wife asked how his friend was going.He replied,"I don't know.We didn't talk about it."His wife blamed him.
This made the man feel bad.So he was relieved to read in my hook that doing things together can be a comfort in itself,another way to show caring.
But if talking about problems isn't necessary for comfort,then having sisters shouldn't make men happier than having brothers.Yet the recent study is supported by others.
Scientists Liz Wright and Tony Cassidy found that young people who had grown up with at least one sister tended to be happier and more optimistic,especially if their parents had divorced.Researcher Judy Dunn,found a similar pattern among older adults.
I interviewed about 100 women about their sisters,but if they also had brothers,I asked them to compare.Most said they talked to their sisters more often,at greater length and about more personal topics.This often meant that they felt closer to their sisters.
It's true that having a sister makes one happier,but it needn't be talks about emotions.When women told me they talk to their sisters more often,at greater length and about more personal topics,I believe it's the first element that is the most important rather than the rest.

25.Why did the wife blame her husband in Paragraph 3?C
A.Because he laughed at his divorced friend.
B.Because he stayed with his friend for too long.
C.Because she didn't think he had shown care to his friend.
D.Because she didn't like her husband's contact with his friend.
26.What can we learn from the sixth paragraph?
A.Even an older adult can be happier if he has a sister.A
B.Women's styles of conversation are better than men's.
C.Talking isn't the only factor that makes people happier.
D.Talking about problems is the best way to show care for others.
27.As for talks between sisters.what is the most important in the writer's opinion?B
A.The content.
B.The frequency.
C.The topic.
D.The length.
28.What would be the best title for the passage?A
A.Why Sisterly Chats Make People Happier
B.Sisters'Natural Tendency in Emotional Talking
C.Talking Is the Best Way to Make People Happy
D.Women Enjoy Different Styles of Communication.
3.How do you pay for things in a shop?Perhaps you like the touchable reliability of hard cash?Maybe the financial flexibility of a credit card suits you better?Or perhaps you prefer the simple convenience of a smartphone?
Whatever you use today,experts believe all these methods could soon become outdated.Instead,we will use our bodies:our eyes,our fingerprints,even our mere presence in the store.In fact it's happening already.Amazon are trialing stores which have no checkouts,where  technology tracks the items you've taken from the shelves and deducts(扣除) the total from your  account when you leave the shop.
French supermarket Monoprix takes a different path:you choose your groceries and leave them with a human cashier.You then leave the shop while the cashier adds up your bill,charges your account,and organizes delivery to your home.
Amir,CEO of Barclaycard predicts that such new developments mean the end of the plastic credit card.Instead,wearable items such as rings,necklaces and key chains will carry chips(芯片) that allow shoppers to shop,going between the web,an app or in store.
And while all the above payment methods are supported by accounts held in traditional currencies,let's not forget the rise of alternatives such as Litecoin.Virtual(虚拟) currencies can rise in value very quickly.One such possibility is explored in the movie In Time.It imagines a futuristic society in which the currency is time itself,where people trade the amount of time they have left to live.
Or perhaps we'd do better to wind back the clock to the simpler financial world of the equal exchange economy.While the term recalls images of bags of grain and herds of sheep being exchanged in ancient times,there are signs that are making a comeback in today's world of modern technology.Maybe the only thing we know for certain is that money will keep updating.

28.Which of the following statements is TRUE?C
A.Payment is done by the cashiers at Amazon.
B.All the methods of payment have become outdated.
C.Shopping at Monoprix is convenient for customers.
D.Customers can leave their credit cards at Monoprix.
29.What might replace the credit cards in the future according to Amir?B
A.Smartphones.
B.Wearable items.
C.Virtual currencies.
D.Fingerprints.
30.What is used as a currency in the movie In Time?C
A.Litecoin.
B.Human life.
C.Time.
D.Bags of grain.
31.Which is the best title for the passage?D
A.The Rise of Virtual Currencies.
B.The History of Money.
C.The Ending if Credit Cards.
D.The Changing Nature of Money.
5.When American soldiers return home from war with disabilities,they often suffer twice-first from their combat injuries,next from the humiliation (羞辱)of government dependency.
Wounded veterans (老兵)learn they have two basic choices:They can receive almost $3,000 a month in disability benefits along with medical care and access to other various welfare programs,or they can try to find a job.Especially in this economy,it's no wonder that many find that first option hard to turn down.
Mark Duggan,an economics professor at Stanford University,reports that enrollment in U.S.veterans'disability programs rose from 2.3 million in 2001 to 3.9 million in 2014.The percentage of veterans receiving benefits doubled,from 8.9% in 2001 to 18% in 2014.Disability services for veterans now consume $59 billion.
In the 1980s and 1990s,male veterans were more likely to be in the labor force than nonveterans.But since 2000,that has changed dramatically.Now there is a 4% gap between veteran and nonveteran labor participation,with veteran participation lower.
Navy SEAL Eric Greitens,founder of The Mission Continues,explains how soldiers who served their country are transformed into welfare receivers who live off their country.
"When veterans come home from war they are going through a tremendous change in identity,"he says."Then the United States Department of Veterans Affairs,and others,encourage them to view themselves as disabled."By the time they come to Greitens'non-profit organization,"We meet a number of veterans who see themselves as charity cases and are not sure anymore what they have to contribute."
There are also more practical factors driving the disability boom.One is the expansion of qualification criteria.In 2000,for instance,type 2 diabetes was added as a disability because of evidence linking exposure to Agent Orange with the onset of the disease.Heart disease has also been added to the list.
Another possible factor is that younger veterans seem less against welfare than their parents'generation.Veterans who have served since the 1990s are much more likely to sign up for disability than their older counterparts; 1 in 4 younger veterans is on disability versus just 1 in 7 of those over age 54.
We shouldn't go back to the bad old days when veterans were afraid to admit weakness.But Lt.Col.Daniel Gade is one of many veterans who think our disability system is harmful,psychologically,to former soldiers.Gade lost his leg in combat in 2005 and now teaches at West Point.He recently gave a talk to disabled veterans at Ft.Carson,in which he urged them to rejoin the workforce.
"People who stay home because they are getting paid enough to get by on disability are worse off,"he warned."They are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol.They are more likely to live alone."
What a waste of human potential,especially since most veterans on disability still have their prime working years ahead of them when they're discharged (遣退).
We could solve this problem by changing the way we view-and label-veterans with disabilities.As Gade noted in a recent article,"Veterans should be viewed as resources,not as damaged goods."He recommended that"efforts to help veterans should begin by recognizing their abilities rather than focusing only on their disabilities,and should serve the ultimate aim of moving wounded soldiers to real self-sufficiency."
On a more practical note,the United States Department of Veterans Affairs could reallocate resources to spend more on job training and less on disability.Current placement programs are sadly inadequate.
We are good at sending soldiers off to war.Yet when these young men and women return home,they are essentially told,"We'll give you enough for a reasonably comfortable life,but we won't help you find a job."
It is unreasonable that we are condemning thousands of young veterans who served their country to life on the dole (救济金) rather than enabling them to reenter the workforce with the necessary accommodations.

35.What do more and more disabled veterans appear to do nowadays?A
A.Depend on the government for a living.
B.Be treated badly in most workplaces.
C.Ask the government for more dole.
D.Spend more time on job hunting.
36.How does Mark Duggan prove his opinion in the passage?A
A.By listing figures.
B.By giving examples.
C.By performing experiments.
D.By analyzing cause and effect.
37.What did veterans use to do in the 1980s and 1990s?B
A.Refuse to find jobs.
B.Be a main labor resource.
C.Have much trouble finding jobs.
D.Receive many disability benefits.
38.One of the reasons why there are more disabled veterans is thatC.
A.damage from the war is greater than ever
B.veterans have suffered much more than ever
C.the scale of disabilities has been broadened
D.older veterans aren't afraid to admit their disability
39.In Gade's opinion,the veterans who receive welfare from the government tend toB.
A.save more trouble for the government
B.lead a miserable and unhappy life
C.increasingly depend on the government
D.suffer the humiliation of their combat injuries
40.What is the author's attitude toward current placement programs?D
A.Reasonable.B.Positive.C.Neutral.D.Critical.
2.Most people feel lonely sometimes,but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours.This kind of loneliness is not serious.In fact,it is quite normal.For some people,though,loneliness can last for years.(36)DThe first kind of loneliness doesn't last long.This is the most common type.(37)CThe second kind is situational,it is a natural result of a particular situation.For example,family problem,the death of loved one,or moving to a new place.Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems,such as headaches and sleeplessness,it usually does not last for more than a year.
The third kind of loneliness is the most serious.(38)FPeople who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others.Unfortunately,many of them think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.
Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person's social contacts.(39)E
 For instance,our families give us emotional support,our parents and teachers give us guidance,and our friends share similar interests and activities.However,psychologists have found that,though lonely people may have many social contacts,they sometimes feel they should have more.They question their popularity.
Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons:they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between habitual loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease,(40)B

A.we live in a big family and we love our family members.
B.while temporary and situational loneliness can be a sad,and sometimes dangerous condition.
C.It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention.
D.Psychologits are studing this complex phenomenon,and have identified three different types of loneliness.
E.We depend on various people for different reasons.
F.Unlike the first two types,it usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause.
G.and temporary and situational loneliness don't  need to pay attention to.
