This sleepy seaside community, known mostly by locals, is a five-hour drive orsix-hour train trip from Bangkok. Dont miss the splendid Wat Tang Sai, a massive, fairy tale castle-like Buddhist temple located atop Thong Chai Mountain.River KwaiMost visitors come for the beaches, but the rivers and parks in Thailands Kanchanaburi province have much to offer the off-the-beaten-track road tripper. Lots of scenic paths and waterfalls exist in Sai Yok and Erawan national parks. Just two hoursdrive from Bangkok is the bridge made famous in the book“Bridge over the River Kwai”byFrench author, Pierre Boulle, and the 1957 Academy Award-winning film adaptation(改编) of the same name.Stay on the river at one of Kanchanaburis many floating hotels, or“floatels”, where you can kayak(划独木舟) to your front door.Khao Sam Roi Yot National ParkHiking tracks, wetlands and mangrove (红树) forests make Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park a weekend adventure worthy of topping your Thailand to-do list. The parks crown jewel is the extraordinary Phraya Nakhon Cave.

Its also an excuse-making machine that frequently tries to convince us not to take action we know are good for us. If we hadnt learned about these excuses, or how to overcome them, we would never have succeeded in making these positive changes.So why does the mind mess with us and make unreasonable excuses? Because the mind wants comfort; thats the reason. Its afraid of discomfort, pressure and change. The mind is absorbed in its comfort zone, and anytime we try to stretch that zone too far, for too long, the mind tries desperately to get back to “ground zero”at any cost. These damaging excuses, such as “I cant do it”,“It is too hard for me”, “Its too late now”and so on, are no strangers to our minds.It seems too difficult at first, so you think you cant stick to the positive change youre making. This excuse can be countered (对抗) by looking at the fact that other people were no more capable than you thought you were. For example, my 60-year-old next-door neighbor finished running a marathon, so I told myself, “If she can do it, so can I!”Truth be told, the only person who tells you“I cant”is yourself. If you hear those words echoing in the back of your mind, tune them out.Ive witnessed people reinventing themselves at all ages 48-year-olds starting families, 57-year-olds graduating from college for the first time, 71-year-olds starting successful businesses, and so forth.Another common excuse is that “Ive already failed too much.”If you break down, its fine, because you are only human. Just dont stay down; take a rest, and then pick yourself up so you can go to where youd rather be. As Winston Churchill said, “Success is never final; failure is never fatal ( 致 命 的 ). It is courage to continue that counts.”Some people feel like quitting when they have almost reached their goal, while others attain their goals through their efforts until the last second. So make some necessary adjustments to get rid of the bad habit of making excuses. Keep going! No excuses! Think, work, and climb, thats how youll move your life forward.41. Why does our mind make excuses?A. It tends to seek comforts rather than suffer. B. It needs rest and relax.C. It is preparing for the difficult times. D. It is the way it tries to find a solution.42. What might “ground zero”in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The lowest spot. B. The safest place.C. The original place. D. The proper position.43. Knowing his neighbor finished the marathon made the author realize _.A. completing a marathon was not too difficult B. people often neglect their abilitiesC. looking down upon the others is wrong D. people shouldnt let negative thoughts step in their way44. For someone who fears failure, the author advises him to _.A. learn from those good examples B. stop for a while and examine himselfC. try to adjust himself, and get back on his feet D. look for new directions and keep trying45. What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A. To tell readers how to make a change. B. To help readers develop a new view of life.C. To encourage readers to leave their comfortable zone. D. To tell readers to stop making excuses and keep fighting.CMany sugar-sweetened beverages have little to no nutritional value and lots of calories, and their harmful health effects have been well-documented. Now, a study links drinking too many sugary beverages and even 100% natural fruit juices to an increased risk of early death. Specifically, drinking too much fruit juice couldlead to an increased risk of early death ranging from 9% to 42%, according to a study.Overall, the sugars found in orange juice, although naturally occurring, are pretty similar to the sugars addedto soda and other sweetened beverages, the study suggests. “Sugary beverages, whether soft drinks or fruit juices, should be limited,”Jean Welsh, a co-author of the study, said.Seven US cities, including New York and most recently Philadelphia, have levied ( 征 收 ) taxes on sweetened drinks with added sugar in an effort to reduce consumption. The new study defined “sugary beverages” as both sugar-sweetened drinks, like soda and fruit-flavored drinks, and 100% natural fruit juices that have no added sugar. So how does fruit juice compare to soda?“Previous research has shown that high consumptionof sugars like those in soft drinks and fruit juices is linked to several cardiovascular (心血管的) disease risk factors,”Welsh explained.People who consumed 10% or more of their daily calories as sugary beverages had a 44% greater risk of dying due to a heart disease and a 14% greater risk of anearly death from any cause compared with people who consumed less than 5% of their daily calories as sugary beverages, the study showed. Each additional 12-ounce(盎司 ) serving of fruit juice per day was associated with a 24% higher risk of death from any cause, and each additional 12-ounce serving of sugary beverages per day was associated with an 11% higher risk.This is one of the first studies to examine the relationship between sugary drinks, including 100% fruit juices, and early death, wrote Marta Guasch-Ferr and Dr. Frank B. Hu in an editorial published alongside the new study. “Although fruit juices may not be as harmful as sugar sweetened beverages, their consumption should be moderated in children and adults, especially for individuals who wish to control their body weight,”Guasch-Ferr and Hu wrote.Welsh said we need to consider both fruit juices and sugar-sweetened beverages when we think about how much sugar we consume each day. Between the two, she was in favor of fruit juices:“Given its vitamin and mineral content, fruit juice in small amounts may have a beneficialeffect that isnt seen with sodas and other sugar-sweetened beverages.”46. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Sugar-free drinks basically have no nutritional value.B. Natural fruit juices are usually healthier than sugary beverages.C. The negative effect of drinking too many beverages remains unknown.D. Drinking too much fruit juice may not be a healthy option.47. Why have seven US cities taxed sugary beverages?A. To increase the governments income. B. To let people buy less sweetened beverages.C. To urge people to turn to sugar-free drinks. D. To increase the consumption of natural juice.48. How are the findings of the study presented to us？A. By making comparisons. B. By giving examples.C. By giving advice. D. By stating the facts.49. What does the underline
