I’m a travel lover. I think it is very exciting to go to new places, experience different situations and see new things. Here’s what I have come up with about why my travel is so interesting.

To start with, whether we know it or not, every day is filled with anxiety about things that we don’t need to worry about in the first place. Going to new places is a good chance to escape from our everyday worries. For example, after a whole day at work, I’m often physically and mentally tired and start to worry about things. However, the moment I get on the train or bus to my next destination（目的地） I forget all my tiredness and worries.

Next is one of the most important things in travel: movement. I always take along books to read on my train trips, but in the end, only about five pages or so ever get read, because I just look at things out of the window. Just the ability to move is very enjoyable. Movement also means that we are going to new places and seeing new things. But why is that important? Because experiencing new situations, people and ideas can help us to learn about new things and grow. I have never gone on a trip and come back as the same person; I have always changed and grown through travel.

So take every type of trip you can, at every chance you get, and you will not only experience more of the world, but will become a happier person with rich experiences.

1.The passage is mainly about ________.

A. how to have a comfortable life

B. how to prepare for a trip

C. why travel is so exciting

A. Because he doesn’t like reading on the train

B. Because his attention was taken away by the beautiful view.

D. Because he is so tired that he can’t read.

3.People who travel to new places will ________.

①learn new things ②become happier

③get more experiences ④have more chances to read

A. ①②③④ B. ①②④ C. ②③④ D. ①②③

Every culture has its own unwritten list of behavior that is acceptable. Every society also has its taboos, or types of behavior that are considered a violation (违反) of good manners.

The word “taboo” comes from the Tongan language and is used in modern English to describe verbal and nonverbal behavior that is forbidden or to be avoided. 1. They tend to be specific to a culture or country, and usually form around a group’s values and beliefs. What is considered acceptable behavior in one country may be a serious taboo in another.

Verbal taboos usually involve topics that people believe are too private to talk about publicly, or relate to one’s manner of speaking. In many cultures, for example, it is considered bad manners to discuss subjects such as sex or religion in public. In some countries, the volume (音量) of one’s voice may annoy people. 2.

3. For example, one of the biggest differences among many Western, Asian, and African cultures is the use of eye contact. In the US, people make eye contact when they talk to others. 4. In many Asian and African cultures, however, children are taught to lower their eyes when talking to their elders, or those of higher rank, as a way to show respect.

Certain gestures made with the hands can have very different meanings depending on the country you are in. Crossing your middle finger over your forefinger is the sign for good luck in many western countries. 5. Also, in some Asian countries, moving your hands a lot while talking, or ‘talking with your hands’, is considered unsuitable.

Behavior that is acceptable and non-offensive in one culture can be highly offensive in another. When visiting a foreign country, be aware of some of the basic differences, as this will help to ensure a more enjoyable trip.

A. Nonverbal taboos usually relate to body language.

B. In Vietnam and Argentina, however, it is a rude gesture.

C. In spite of what some people may think, taboos are not universal.

D. Cancer is a taboo subject and people are frightened to talk openly about it.

E. Learn a country’s customs so that you don’t hurt the local people unconsciously.

F. They might think that someone who is speaking or laughing loudly is rude or aggressive.

G. If a person avoids eye contact, others might think he is being dishonest or unconfident.

The TV science-fiction series Star Trek no longer looked far-fetched (牵强的) as four men and four women in black space-suits locked themselves into a giant hi-tech greenhouse, known as a ‘biosphere’, in the Arizona desert yesterday for a two-year study of the environment.

As dawn broke over the Santa Catalina mountains, the eight waved goodbye to television cameras. Edward Ross, their multibillionaire sponsor from a Texas oil family, closed the door of the $150 million structure, with its mini-ocean, marsh, desert, savanna, rain-forest and 3,800 plant and animal species designed to allow the team to recreate Earth and its ecosystems.

The so-called Biosphere 2 is the latest of a dozen environmental projects started by the self-titled ‘ecopreneur’. The project’s main aim is to set up a self-sustaining community for possible use in a spaceship or on another planet. The crew members must plant, harvest and process their food on a half-acre farm in the seven-storey glass and metal structure, while conducting a series of experiments.

‘We will be custodians (监护人) of our new little world,’ said Abigail Mayer, aged 31, a US marine biologist on the team, her voice choking with emotion. ‘It is a brave new step.’ Many scientists, however, are more than skeptical. They point out that the largest closed ecosystem which survived more than a few days was smaller than a football. It was developed at the University of Miami and contained only shrimp, algae and other micro-organisms.

Critics have also accused Mr. Ross of being more interested in producing a profitable theme park than in carrying out serious scientific research. Hundreds of tourists visited the site daily in the summer before it was occupied by the team. They paid $9.95 to enter and all stopped at the souvenir shop.

1.What’s the location of the project?

A. Texas.

B. University of Miami.

C. Arizona desert.

D. The space.

2.What can we infer from the passage?

A. There is a scene in Star Trek where four men and four women locked themselves into giant greenhouse.

B. All the species of plants and animals on the Earth were brought into the greenhouse.

C. Mr. Ross made tourists stop at the souvenir shop to gain profits.

D. Many scientists are doubtful whether this system can last long enough.

3.What’s the author’s attitude towards the project?

A. Critical.B. Neutral.C. Skeptical.D. Supportive.

When people think about valuable things, they usually think about money or jewelry. I am not very rich, and I have something very preciously in my room. It's not a computer or a smart phone. It's the view from my window. I'm lucky live near a park. My window faces with the tops of the trees in the park. Below the tree I can see children on the playground, young couples walked quietly, and mothers with children. There are also some old people sitting in the beach. The whole world was before their eyes. My classmates like to go online or listen to music, but when I have free time, I just sit on the chair and enjoying the most precious thing in my room: the view.
