【题目】 LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant was killed in a helicopter crash yesterday in Calabasas. California, along with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven other people. The helicopter carrying Bryant and the others crashed into a hilly area in foggy conditions, and the cause of the crash is under investigation.

Family members, friends and fans are mourning the death of the basketball great Kobe Bryant. Looking back to his whole life, Bryant was widely considered one of the greatest basketball players of his generation. Even after his retirement, Kobe Bryant is still a winner. The former Los Angeles Lakers star won an Oscar in the animated short category for "Dear Basketball,” a poem he wrote after ending his 20-year career on the court in 2016.

He’ll add it to an already jammed trophy collection that includes five NBA championships with the Lakers, two Olympic gold medals, NBA Finals most valuable player awards, a league MVP award and four All-Star game MVP awards.

Since hanging up his basketball shoes, Bryant has thrown himself into business (a new Nike shoe) and various forms of storytelling.

“As basketball players, we're told to shut up and dribble（运球）,” Bryant once said on stage. “I’m glad we did a little bit more than that.”

He thanked his wife, Vanessa, and his three daughters, naming each of them. He spoke a few words of Italian — a language he learned as a child growing up in Italy — and closed by telling them, “You arc my inspiration.'

He was just getting started. And now he's gone.

The tributes（悼念）will continue, though eventually fade away. The legacy will be forever.

【题目】 There's been increased attention on this in recent weeks, with the unsettling spread of the coronavirus around the world. When a video of Naomi Campbell cleaning her airplane seat and wearing a mask and gloves was shared online last year, it made the rounds because her behavior seemed exaggerated. “ 【1】 And we know that germs can live on surfaces for a long time, so it doesn't hurt to clean it," said Aaron Milstone, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Here are some tips for cleaning your area of a plane and keeping healthy on a flight.

Keep your hands clean and stop touching your face

"Wiping down surfaces on a plane won't hurt, as long as it doesn't give you a false sense of security,” Andrew Mehle, associate professor of medical microbiology said, stressing that cleaning your space on a plane should be done in conjunction with washing hands and following other best practices. Good habits are not easily formed. 【2】 Doing so after touching a surface where droplets from when someone sneezed or coughed can lead to the virus being passed on.

【3】

A study from Emory University found that during flu season, the safest place to sit on a plane is by a window. Researchers studied passengers and crew members on 10 three-to-five-hour flights and observed that people sitting in window seats had less contact with potentially sick people.

Disinfect hard surfaces

When you get to your seat and your hands are clean, use disinfecting wipes to clean the hard surfaces at your seat like the head and arm rest, the seatbelt buckle（带扣）, the remote, screen, seat back pocket and the tray table. If the seat is hard and nonporous （无孔的）or leather, you can wipe that down too. 【4】In addition, pay attention to your disinfecting wipes, which would typically say on the packaging how long asurface needs to stay wet in order for them to work.【5】 In order for the wipes to work, you need to follow those time requirements.

A.Choose a window seat.

B.A window seat is the best option.

C.The airplane and airplane seat is a public space.

D.Good habits arc essential in this particular time.

E.That time can range from 30 seconds to a few minutes.

F.Most people tend to touch their faces more often than they realize.

G.However, using wipes on cushions could lead to a wet scat and spreading of germs.

Bushfires are disasters that occur each year in many parts of the world. The worst bushfires usually involve eucalypt trees, 【1】 leaves burn easily. A eucalypt tree can explode in 【2】 ball of fire. Therefore, eucalypt forest fires can be extremely violent.

The most severe bushfire in the world is burning in south-eastern Australia and its 【3】 (surround) areas in this dry season. The current summer 【4】 (present) the perfect storm for wildfire so far.

【题目】Most Visited European Destinations for Chinese Tourists

Bicester Village

According to a 2019 Visit Britain report, over 275,000 Chinese tourists visit the UK every year. And where do they go? It claimed that “they are mostly interested in symbolic elements: the Royal Family, Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter and Downton Abbey”.

Then there’s the shopping. Bicester Village, a vast retail estate on the outskirts of the Oxfordshire town, is the second most visited UK attraction for Chinese tourists after Buckingham Palace, and three in four Chinese visitors head there.

King’s College, Cambridge

A famous tree, for Chinese people at least, can be found in King’s College, Cambridge. The willow(柳树), regarded to be a holy thing to lost youth, is mentioned in a much-loved poem by Xu Zhimo, who spent a year studying at King’s College - Taking Leave of Cambridge Again.

Bonn

The former West German capital is another popular port of call. Chinese love classical music, particularly Beethoven, making his birthplace an obvious highlight of any trip to Europe. The city’s tourist board offers maps in three foreign languages: English, Chinese and Japanese.

Verona

Both British and Chinese travelers flock to Venice, Rome and Florence, but Verona typically appears higher on the wish lists of China’s tourists. That’s because of the country’s adoration of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The play is popular on UK shores, of course, but the love is doubled in China as it was among the first of the Shakespeare’s works to be translated into Chinese Mandarin. Its plot bears a striking resemblance(相似之处) to a famous Chinese folk tale, The Butterfly Lovers. Expect to see queues at the popular House of Juliet on Via Cappello (a statue of the character stands beneath her balcony).

【1】Which is most visited destination for Chinese tourists?

A.Bicester Village.B.Buckingham Palace.

C.King’s College.D.Cambridge.

【2】Which place are the Chinese music fans likely to go?

A.Bicester Village.B.King’s College, Cambridge.

C.Bonn.D.Verona.

【3】Which are adored by Chinese tourists who love literature?

A.Bicester Village and Bonn.B.Bicester Village and King’s College, Cambridge.

C.Verona and Bonn.D.King’s College, Cambridge and Verona.
