The thinking is that they can later return to the places that attracted them, but thats nonsense! What you see from the inside of a fast-moving bus is sanitized (清洁的) and unreal , entirely removed from the real sights, sounds, and smells outside.The best way to experience any destination is by foot, without an itinerary, wandering where your spirit leads you. Even in the largest cities, the savvy(资深的) traveler plunges into the very center of town and walks down the nearest street, experiencing the actual life of the people while looking into the grocery stores and courtyard. You eventually get to many of the same sites that are on the bus route-the museums, the monuments, the city hall-but you will have witnessed so much more because you will have felt the contemporary life of the city youre visiting.“But what if I get lost?” people ask. No one ever gets permanently lost in a major city. Eventually, a trolley or bus passes with the words “Central Station” on its front and you can easily return to the center of town. Besides, the most wonderful things can happen if you do get lost, such as stopping at a sidewalk cafe to sit and relax and then asking directions from the locals at the next table. Hopefully , your trip may be attractive by this encounter. Here are a few ways to make the most of your travels:Know before you go. Before you depart, spend time in a library or bookstore, learning about the history and culture of your destination so you will better understand the place youre visiting .Move around like a local. Use the local subways, trams and buses. Youll not only save money, youll learn how people live there , and youll gain a realistic perspective of the city.Check the bulletin board. Bulletin boards list free lectures, concerts, workshops and social gatherings, giving you a chance to join or meet the areas most dynamic residents.Take a walking tour. If you must book a guided tour, select the nonstandard , inexpensive kinds conducted on foot.So, the next time you feel lured by a sightseeing bus tour, save your money and instead, wander around on your own. I promise you a time youll remember fondly.4. What does the author think of a bus tour?A .It is reasonable. B. It is fast. C. You cant be exposed to the outside world. D. It is noisy. 5.

How to travel with a budgeCWe are all human and have weaknesses. Even if your physical appearance or social skills arent what you wish they were, that doesnt have to stop you from being confident. Heres how to believe in yourself.Make a list of special talents you have, or things you do that are goodmorally or otherwise. It doesnt have to be a specific skill；it can be an approach or an attitude that you hold through life. Do you always stay calm, cool and collected, even in hurried situations? Are you very patient with people? Do you always see the humorous side of things? Are you always there for your friends? Know that you have important things to say and do. When you feel strongly about something, speak loudly and clearly and make eye contact with people. People will judge you all the time, and usually theyll misjudge you anyway, so why bother trying to live up to their opinions at all? Take care of yourself. Eat a healthy diet and get enough exercise. Dont abuse your body, dont overload it, and dont deny any of the things it needs. At the same time, dont obsess(沉迷). Buying all the moisturizers (润肤霜) and creams will not bring you closer to who you want to be. Those things are only band-aids and make-up. Confidence es from within. In order to be confident, you must value yourself and understand that your well-being is important. Improve your posture. Having good posture can actually make you feel more confident. Dont drop your shoulders. Make sure that your back is straight, your shoulders are square, and your chest sticks out slightly (but stay loose, otherwise youll appear stubborn and nervous). Good posture also helps with deep breathing, which helps with feeling calm and relaxed. 9. What is the best title for the text?A. How to keep a good shape.B. The way to success.C. What talents you need.D. How to be confident.10. Among the following things, which is not mentioned in paragraph 2?A. When your friends are in trouble, you are always there to help.B.

To show us these things are not necessities for confidence.C. To show us that moisturizers (润肤霜) and creams are special diet for our skin.D. To tell the readers they are essential to their well-being.

Who hasnt had an argument about whose turn it is to take out the rubbish or who should be the one to clear up after dinner? _16_ You know that theres always someone else around, which can help you feel safer. There is always someone to talk to, so you never feel lonely. Besides these obvious benefits, there are some you may not notice. _17_ To examine the effect of living alone, Australian university researchers did much research and found that people living alone tended to eat less fresh food, which can have a significant negative effect on long-term health. However, those living with others generally benefited from a more varied diet pared to those living alone. _18_ The researchers believe the social and cultural roles played by cooking, food preparation and eating may be important considerations. For example, those living with friends have someone else to go shopping with, and thus are likely to buy high-quality fresh food regularly. _19_ If people living alone find they do not have the knowledge required to prepare a particular dish or cook a certain food, they may fall back on ready-made, less healthy food. However, if they live with at least one other person, they may be able to ask for help. In addition, people living alone can eat whatever they want at any time of the day or night. However, its helpful to have someone around who questions your decision to eat frozen pizza at 3 am. _20_ So, if you now live alone and find yourself fighting a losing battle against poor eating habits, why not consider sharing a home with someone else? You could encourage one another on to greater health and well-being. A. Cooking skills may be another factor.B. In other words, roommates can draw your attention to unhealthy routines.C. Living with a roommate could be a good thing because a roommate can share your expenses and contribute to your homes maintenance.D. For example, were actually more likely to eat healthier food when living with others.E. What could explain these findings?F. Its hard to find someone who doesnt grate on your nerves, has a similar cleanliness level as you and goes to bed at the same time.G. However, living with another person also es with many benefits.第二部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节 (共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。As the pace of life continues to increase, we arc fast losing the art of relaxation21 you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to 22downBut relaxation is 23 for a healthy mind and body Stress is a 24 part of everyday life and there is no way to 25 itIn fact, it is not the bad thing that it is often supposed to beA 26 amount of stress is important to provide motivation and give 27 to lifeIt is only when the stress gets out of control 28 it can lead to poor performance and 29 health The amount of stress a person can bear 30 very much on the individualSome people are not afraid of stress and such 31 are obviously chief material for managerial responsibilitiesOthers lose heart at first 32 of unusual difficultiesWhen exposed to stress, in 33 form, we react both chemically and physicallyIn fact we make a choice between 34 and fightAnd in more ancient days the choices made the 35 between life and deathThe crises（危机）we meet today are 36 to be so extreme, but however little the stressIt requires the same responseIt is when such a reaction 37 long, through continued exposure to stress, that health bees 38.
