The time and the people, and “the best meal” can be found in a fine dining restaurant or in a crowded street market. How can you recreate that special moment influenced by place and time? Travel is being the most popular reason to visit many places around the world. Here are the places that consistently excite the senses. South of France Markets with fresh fruits and vegetables and butcher shops are abundant. Regional(地区的)wines are excellent. And freshly baked French bread with French butter is what memories are made of. Take a chair in an ancient walled city for a meal with a view that you will never forget. Barcelona This bustling city filled with unique buildings is a city for lovers of history, architecture, and food. Kiosko Universal, a counter restaurant at one er of the market, prepares some of the simplest and best food weve ever had. Give yourself a week to explore and see everything the city offers. The city is not to be missed. Italy Its hard to choose one place or city to visit. Some of our favorite places include the coastal regions on the Adriatic and Tuscany. Friuli stole our hearts last year with its many unique wines, small artisan food producers, and influences fro neighboring countries like Austria and Germany. Mexico City From unbelievable food markets and casual street stands, Mexico City has bee the place to travel for the food lovers. If you want to eat locally, order a Hurache, a street food specialty. All you will need is a local microbrew or Mezcal(龙舌兰酒)to wash it down.21. Where can you taste delicious food while enjoying beautiful scenery?A. South of France B. Barcelona C. Italy D. Mexico City22. What is Kiosko Universal? A. A market B. A butcher shop C. A restaurant D. A street stand23. What do you need to help swallow Hurache when eating it? A. Bread B. Beer C. Juice D. Fruit24. What do the four places have in mon? A. They are tourist attractions B. They have ancient buildings C. They lie in Europe D. They are noted for tasty foodB Many parents have learned the hard way that what sounds like open munication is often the very thing that closes a youngsters ears and mouth. One mon mistake is the Lecture, the long monologue that often starts with “When I was your age” Eighteen-year-old Kelly calls lectures “long, one-side discussions in which I dont say much.” Kids reflexively(条件反射地)shut down in the face of a lecture. Their eyes glaze over(呆滞),and they dont register any ining information. Listen to 13-year-old Sarah describe her least favorite times with her mom and dad. “First, they scream. Then es the Were so disappointed speech. Then the I never did that to my parents lecture begins. After that, even if they realize how ridiculous they sound they never take it back.” Lines like “When you have children of your own, youll understand” have been seriously said by parents since time immemorial. But many of our expert parents, like Bobby, a registered nurse and mother of three, feel that by falling back on clichs(陈词滥调)to justify your actions, we weaken our position. Since kids are creatures of here and now, the far-off future has no relevance to them. Therefore, good municators like Bobby suggest, “Give specific reasons for your actions in present language: Im not letting you go to the party because I dont think there will be enough adult supervisions.” Betty, who lives in Missouri, uses an indirect approach. “I find that warnings are accepted more readily if I discuss a news article on a subject I am concerned about. My husband and I talk about it while our children absorb the information. Then they never think Im preaching(布道).” This really helped when Bettys kids began driving. Instead of constantly repeating “Dont drink; dont speed,” she would talk about articles in the paper and express sympathy for the victims of a car crash. Betty made no special effort to draw her kids into the conversation. She depended on a teenagers strong desire to put in his opinions-especially if he thinks he isnt being asked for them.25. The purpose of the passage is to _. A. pare two ways of parents municating with their kids B. explain why kids wont listen to their parents C. give parents advice on how to municate with their kids D. introduce kids reaction to the munication between them and their parents26. Which of the following statements is NOT right? A. Kids dont like any discussion at all B. Many kids think they have no right to express their own opinions C. Some kids think their parents should apologize when they are wrong D. Kids wont listen to their parents because they think what their parents say is boring27. What does the underlined word “monologue in the first paragraph mean? A. discussion B. conversation C. a speech by two persons D. a long speech by one persona speech by two persons28. Which of the following topic may appeal to kids? A. Things related to childrens present life B. Kids possible life in the future C. Parents own experience D. What parents have done to their own parents29. In order to make kids follow their advice, parents should_. A. tell their kids to listen carefully B. set out their warnings directly C. arouse kids desire to express themselves D. list out as many examples as possibleC China has more than 30 intangible cultural heritage recognized by the UNESCO, including paper-cutting, the Dragon Boat Festival, Peking Opera, acupuncture(针灸)and so on. The organization adopted a decision that Chinas “The Twenty-Four Solar Terms” (二十四节气)should be put on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016 in Ethiopia. The Twenty-Four Solar Terms, knowledge of time and practices in agriculture, starts from the Beginning of Spring and ends with the Greater Cold, moving in cycles. It developed through the observation of the suns annual movement in China. In ancient time, the method of tugui, earth sundial(日暑), was used to measure the shadow of the sun for determining the solar terms. The Twenty-Four Solar Terms came into being and developed in close relationship with Chinese agricultural production. At the initial stage of agricultural development, people began to explore the seasonal rules in the agricultural production to meet the needs in seeding, harvesting and other activities. Gradually, they formed the concept of “seed in spring, grow in summer, harvest in autumn and store in winter”. During the spring and auturmn periods, the agricultural production was highly influenced by the seasonal changes, thus forming the concept of Solar Terms. As a traditional Chinese knowledge system of time with a history of thousands of years, the Twenty-Four Solar Terms clearly expresses the concepts of respect for nature, and harmony between man and nature. Created by Chinese ancestors, it have functioned as a plete set of weather calendar(日历)to guide the agricultural production in China. It has also been introduced into North Korea, Japan and other neighboring countries and still used in Japan. The Chinese heritage has provably influenced the peoples way of thinking and behaving and will continue to be an important carrier of Chinese cultural identity.30.

A. is part of traditional Chinese culture B. is strongly influenced by North Korea and Japan C. is hard to explain D. is an agricultural calendar merely used in ChinaDLisa Pina never thought she would need the fire safety training she received during her apprenticeship(学徒期)as a union painter and dry waller(筑墙工).
