How to be a good tourist
We travel for work but also for fun and learning. New restaurants, galleries, temples and new architecture…These places are homes for people like us who live and work there. How would you want visitors to behave in your own home? Think about it 1. There are many ways of doing this without sacrificing our own holiday.
Do your homework. 2. Guides will help you when you get to site, but is that the best place to go? Is it popular only because the one-day tourist can see it easily or because it is really a worthwhile place to visit? You’d better check it out.
3. Don’t go to your hotels for meals. Walk around, even if in the streets closest to your hotel. Eat in local restaurants .Talk to the locals. Learn a few in the local language and use them. You will surely get a smile from the hotel staff and street sellers .
Help preserve the sites. Most of the sites you visit may be visited by millions of people a year, so care needs to be taken to allow others to enjoy them as well. Some of these monuments are so old and fragile that they are sensitive to the touch of hands or bags and shows. 4. This way, you don’t encourage the use of those plastic bags that fly all over many sites.
And here’s the big one—good manners are nearly universal. 5. If that doesn’t sound like you, then give the world a break and stay home.
A. Experience the place.
B. Always have a cloth bag with you.
C. Read up on the places you want to visit.
D. Try to buy something from the local stores.
E. A good tourist is polite, positive and eco-sensitive.
F. We’ve cleaned up after ourselves and taken only good memories.
G. If we are good tourists, wherever we go, we try to make it a little better because of our visit.

There is no denying that over the years college education has been accepted without the slightest doubt. All high school graduates should go, says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence, because college will help them earn more, become “better” citizens and be more responsible than those who don’t go.
But college can never work its magic for everyone. Now with half our high school graduates attending college, those unfit for the pattern are getting more. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students interfere with each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the fierce competition for admission into graduate schools. Others find no stimulation (激勵) in their studies, and consequently have to drop out, which is often encouraged by college administrators.
Some observers say the fault lies with young people themselves --- they are spoiled and expecting too much. But that’s a condemnation (譴責)of the students as a whole, and doesn’t explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame our society. Both are partly right. We have been told that young people have to go to college because our economy can’t absorb an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer absorb an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either.
Some campus watchers suggest that college may not be the best, the proper or the only place for every young person after finishing high school. It seems that through the rosy (玫瑰的) glow of our own college experiences, we may have been looking at those surveys and statistics upside down. Perhaps college does not make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, or quick to learn things—maybe it is just the other way around. Intelligent, ambitious, happy, quick-learning people are merely those who are attracted to college in the first place. And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful even without college education. This is heresy (異端邪說) to those who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better. But contrary evidence is beginning to pile up.
1.According to the first paragraph, ______.
A. people now no longer challenge college education
B. people have great expectations for college education
C. the author thinks youngsters should all go to college
D. people still have a low opinion of college education
2.More young people drop out of college because ______.
A. they are no longer motivated in their studies
B. they can start selling shoes and driving taxis
C. they compete for admission to graduate schools
D. college administrators encourage them to do so
3.Who does the author think is responsible for campus unhappiness?
A. young students who are all spoiled and expecting too much.
B. our society that can’t offer enough jobs to college graduates.
C. our society that has not enough jobs for high school graduates.
D. young people as well as our society are to blame for all this.
4.Which of the following statements is TRUE about those surveys and statistics?
A. They prove high school graduates are smarter than college graduates.
B. They are so convincing that we think of our rosy college experiences.
C. They may have been misread because of our rosy college experiences.
D. They prove wrong because they contradict our rosy college experiences.
5.What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4?
A. It is just the opposite B. There is no right way
C. It is the wrong way D. There’s no other way
6.What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To inform young people college education is no longer important now.
B. To prove college education doesn’t make young people more intelligent.
C. To argue against the idea that college is the first choice for all youngsters.
D. To tell young people that there’s something wrong with college education.

It all began with a stop at a red light.
Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter, Hannah, back from a sleepover in 2006 . While waiting at a traffic light, they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other.
“Dad, if that man had a less nice car, that man there could have a meal.”Hannah protested. The light changed and they drove on, but Hannah was too young to be reasonable. She pestered (糾纏)her parents about inequity, insisting that she wanted to do something.
“What do you want to do?” her mom responded. “Sell our house?”
Warning! Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager. Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds to charity, while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home.
Eventually, that’s what the family did. The project —crazy, impetuous (魯莽的) and utterly inspiring — is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month: “The Power of Half.” It’s a book that, frankly, I’d be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it. An impressionable child reads this, and the next thing you know your whole family is out on the street.
At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere, when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes, the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference — for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help. In a column a week ago, it described neurological evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction. The Salwens’ experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness.
Mr. Salwen and his wife, Joan, had always assumed that their kids would be better off in a bigger house. But after they downsized, there was much less space to retreat to, so the family members spent more time around each other. A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house.
1.The best title for the passage should be “______”.
A. The Less, the Better B. An Expected Satisfaction
C. Something We Can Live Without D. Somewhat Crazy but Inspiring
2.What does the underlined word “inequity” most probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Unfairness. B. Satisfaction.C. Personal attitude. D. Reasonable statement.
3.What does the underlined sentence “Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager.” means___?
A. Never give a quick answer to an idealistic teenager.
B. Unless a child is realistic, never give an answer immediately.
C. Give an answer if the child is reasonable.
D. Don’t respond to a child's demands firmly without consideration.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The Salwens regretted selling their house.
B. The relationship between the family members of the Salwens is much closer.
C. Small houses can bring happiness.
D. The Salwens intend to buy another big house.
5.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Mercedes Coupe is only an ordinary car which is quite cheap.
B. Unselfishness has nothing to do with people’s primary satisfaction.
C. Hannah asked her parents to do something charitable and they sold their house.
D. The writer’s children asked him to sell their house.
