15.Amsterdam Destination GuideAmsterdam 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.
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 m this area,and definitely worth a visit to see what the hype 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,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 core for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.The Plantage area has most of the city's museum,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 city's beaches.
Take a walk 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.
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.

5.With the Spring Festival travel rush expected to peak starting this weekend,a report based on data of online train-ticket sales showed that people traveling to Hainan province have the most difficulties purchasing a ticket.
The report,released by 360 Technology Co,said that the findings are based on data collected through its browser plug-in that helps users buy train tickets online.
Using the data-which includes the success rate of buying train tickets;the length of time to be spent traveling; and the percentage of people without seats among the total number of train passengers-the report published an index showing how difficult it is to get home by train ahead of the holiday.
With the index ranging from 1 to 100,Hainan scored 70,while Zhejiang scored 6,meaning those heading to that province face the least difficulty.
Zhang Lanpu,a data analyst for the report,said that the reason it is so difficult to get a train ticket to Hainan is mainly because of its location.
"Hainan is the southernmost island province.The number of train services available is small,and the travel times of train services to Hainan are all very long,"Zhang said,adding that the report found that train services linking Hainan take an average of 33.8 hours.
Lin Hongyuan,a computer engineer in Shenzhen,Guangdong province,spent more than 3,000 yuan(﹩436)this week on a business-class plane ticket from Shenzhen to Haikou,capital of Hainan,on Jan 26,because he couldn't get a train ticket.
"Train tickets to Haikou via Guangzhou are much cheaper,but there are very few train services.I tried the browser plug-in designed to help purchase train tickets,but even that didn't help,"Lin said.
The report also found that Jan 21 and Jan 24 are the two most difficult days to purchase train tickets for during the holiday season.Train tickets leaving Guangdong province,and Shanghai and Beijing heading to Hunan,Hubei and Hebei provinces are the most sought after.

25.What has mainly led to the difficulty to purchase the tickets to Hainan?D
A.Its population.
B.Its transportation.
C.Its tourism.
D.Its location.
26.Which of the province will be the most convenient to reach?B
A.Jiangsu.B.Zhejiang.C.Hainan.D.Guangdong.
27.What can we infer from the last paragraph?C
A.All of the workers are all on holiday at their hometown on Jan 21and Jan 24.
B.Tickets to Hunan,Hubei and Hebei on Jan 21and Jan 24are fewer than normal days.
C.Trains to Hunan,Hubei and Hebei must be very crowded on Jan 21and Jan 24.
D.Many people will buy tickets to Hunan,Hubei and Hebei together on Jan 21and Jan 24.
28.Which of the following might be the best title of the article?A
A.Train tickets to Hainan hardest to purchase
B.To purchase the hardest tickets
C.People rush to Hainan to spend their holiday
D.Nowhere is harder than Hainan to reach.

3.Like millions of other houses on this planet,my house is made out of wood,glass and stone.However,it is also made out of software.
If you come to visit,you'll probably be surprised the minute you come in,when you will be presented with an electronic PIN (個(gè)人身份號(hào)碼)to wear,which tells the house who
and where you are.The house uses this information to give you whatever you need.When it's dark outside,the PIN turns on the lights nearest you,and then turns them off as you walk
away from them.Music moves with you too.If the house knows your favorite music,it plays it.The music seems to be everywhere,but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music.If you get a telephone call,only the nearest telephone rings.
Of course,you are also able to tell the house if you want something.There is a home control console (控制臺(tái)),a small machine that turns things on and off around you.
The PIN and the console are new ideas,but they are in fact like many things we have today.If you want to go to a movie,you need a ticket.If I give you my car keys,you can use my car.The car works for you because you have the keys.My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.
I believe that ten years from now,most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house.The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I've put in today.
I like to try new ideas.I know that some of my ideas will work better than others.Today's leading-edge technology will help me build tomorrow's better home.But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new,and ask myself instead,"How will I live without them?"

61According to the passage,the author is probably a(n)D.
A.musician
B.a(chǎn)rchitect
C.experienced teacher
D.IT expert
62.What does the passage mainly discuss?A
A.A home for the future.B.The function (功能) of the PIN.
C.How to develop a new system.D.Easy life in the future.
63.What's the purpose when the writer wrote the fourth paragraph?B
A.To let readers know why his ideas are new.
B.To explain more easily what the functions of the PIN and the console are.
C.To explain the importance of the PIN and the console.
D.To let readers know how special his house is.
64.The writer's new house is different from ordinary ones mainly because  D.
A.it has your favorite music following you
B.you can make a telephone call anywhere
C.the writer is able to change his new idea into practice
D.it has been controlled by computers.
65.What does the last sentence mean?B
A.The writer won't invent new things.
B.The writer hopes the systems will become part of everyday life in the future.
C.The writer can't live without his systems in his house.
D.The writer hopes that he will be able to come up with more new ideas in the future.

10.Every day in the United States animals are beaten,neglected(忽視),or forced to struggle for survival.Left in exhausted conditions,they have little hope as they live out their days without the compassion(同情) they deserve.We must fight for these abused animals'rights and severely punish heartless owners.
One of the first steps in protecting animals and creating effective cruelty laws is knowing what animal cruelty actually is.There are two categories:passive cruelty and active cruelty.The first means the abuse happens as a result of neglect or lack of action.Passive cruelty might seem less serious,but that is not the case; it can lead to terrible pain and suffering,and ultimately death.Examples include starvation,dehydration(脫水),inadequate shelter in extreme weather conditions,and the failure to get medical care.
Active cruelty,on the other hand,is more well known and disturbing.Sometimes referred to as non-accidental injury,this type of abuse involves purposefully causing harm to an animal in order to feel more powerful or gain control.Active cruelty against animals should be taken very seriously,since it can be a sign that a person has serious psychological issues and may commit more acts of violence.
It is hard to tell just what drives people to harm innocent animals.According to a study,animal abusers are five times more likely to commit violent crimes against people and four times more likely to commit property crimes than others.It is vital to report people who hurt animals.While not all animal abusers become serial killers,it is important to treat every case seriously.
It's not only up to the legal system to ensure that communities across the country are aware and educated about animal cruelty.There are plenty of things everyday citizens can do.The simplest action is for people to take care of their own pets and learn the facts so they can educate others on proper animal care.Another easy way to help is by donating to or volunteering at a local animal shelter.

12.The underlined word"deplorable"in Paragraph 1 can best be replaced by"B".
A.good     B.terrible    C.normal    D.special
13.Which of the following is passive cruelty?D
A.Beating a dog cruelly.
B.Killing a cat accidentally.
C.Not giving a cat training.
D.Not giving a dog enough food.
14.What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about?A
A.The types of animal cruelty.
B.The effect of animal cruelty.
C.The cause of animal cruelty.
D.The prevention of animal cruelty.
15.Which can be the best title for the text?A
A.Animal cruelty must stop
B.How to take care of your pets
C.Animal shelters need your help
D.Why animals deserve more love.

7.Everybody has to face bad days in their life.Some face ailments,some face fears,some face poverty,some face helplessness etc.No one can escape from it.It is a rule of life.Two things always combines together,like joy and sadness,laugh and cry,health and illness,profit and loss,morning and night,victory and failure,likewise good days and bad days.
You know what is the biggest advantage of bad days?You come to know GOD.What is God?What he can do?He is so friendly,understanding,loving and moreover God is the Superman who can do anything in a second.Yes,true,he can do anything.He is the only light in darkness.God always forgives and never complaint whether you ignore him many times.That is why,for me,God is the only best and faithful friend who never cheats.
When bad days come,even if a person first of all cannot understand what is going on.Why me?But after some time he realizes his strength and start doing every single thing to come out of it.When he comes out,that journey is though very painful.However,when you get through it,you will find your journey very meaningful,and you will feel like it's your rebirth.You have totally changed your thoughts and your viewpoints,and you can understand life better.You get the meaning of your life.In short,you start becoming wise.
The biggest lesson of life during bad days for me is that a person becomes spiritual and a giver who he wasn't before.Life means to create.First think what you want in your life,then start giving the same think.This is one of the most important thing I have learnt in my life.You want love then start spreading it; you want money then start giving to needy,you want happiness then start doing all things that bring happiness.Everything is in your hand and you only need to give first.If you don't have everything,then give or share what you have.Still you feel you have nothing to share,and then give smile.You can't imagine that your smile can do wonder for someone.So start smiling from today onwards.
The most beautiful lesson I have learnt in my life is that if you are in pain,remember one thing:the time is though to be hard but it would be the best time of your life.You know why we have to face hard days?Did you think about it?No!!!!Ok I will tell you.We always forget two unforgettable things.The first is God and second is family.Nowadays money is everything.Money is important,in fact very important but it is not the whole life,so why do we spend the whole life in earning money?How long will we live?So don't let he day pass without enjoying it.
One thing I must share with you is that if you want to grow and learn more than you know,then do whatever you want but beyond your comfort zone.Always try to think that I can,and then nothing is impossible for you.Difficulty is in the mind but not in work.You know one thing when we accept life as it comes,or we accept that everything happens for a reason or for our betterment.Believe me,you will find your hard days as an adventure but you need to trust God and in the end you will find yourself a winner.

62.According to the author,when you are in bad days,you might ask for help fromD
A.family members     B.friendly people    C.understanding men    D.a(chǎn) spirit like God

A.bad days can destroy all people
B.smiling can change your life
C.bad days can help you become wise
D.bad days can change people's thoughts and viewpoints
64.Which opinion of life is in agreement with the author's?D
A.Lily insist that family is more important than God
B.Mr Smith believes that money is the most important of all
C.Mary gives up her love due to the pressure from her parents
D.Tom thinks difficulties in life can be removed once you take action
65.From the last paragraph we can infer that to be a winner,D.
A.you must think twice before taking action
B.you must believe that no difficulty actually exists at all
C.you can stay in your comfort zone thinking about what you are doing
D.you must believe that ups and downs in life are only to help you move forward.
