1、Have you ever been to Singapore? 1. For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, 2. 所以这也是一个练习英语的好地方。
Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night? Singapore has a night zoo called the “Night Safari”, 3. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. But if you’ve ever been to a zoo during the daytime, you might understand why this zoo is so special.
5. 许多动物只在晚上醒来, so this is the best time to watch them. If you go to see lions, tigers, or foxes during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep! At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than a normal zoo.
One great thing about Singapore is that 5. the temperature is almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator. So you can choose to go whenever you like—spring, summer, autumn, or winter! And, of course, it’s not too far from China!

If you ever stay away from your children, a new study says just talking on the phone will help just as 【1】 as a hug (拥抱).
In the study, scientists from the University of Wisconsin—Madison asked some girls between the age of seven and twelve 【2】 math problems in front of experts—a situation full of pressure for anyone. 【3】 the girls were ready to solve math problems, the scientists tested their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙): one is cortisol, and the other is oxytocin.
Scientists divided (分) girls into three groups. After they finished, some of the girls got to meet up with their mothers right away. The mums came in and hugged the girls. 【4】 group of the girls didn’t see their mothers, but got phone calls from their mother. On the phone, their mothers told them they did a good job. The 【5】 group had no contact (接触) with their mothers, but watched an animals movie 【6】.
Finally, the 【7】 hormone levels were tested again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to lower the children’s 【8】 and pressure—however, to our 【9】, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect (影响) on cutting down the girls pressure levels.
So, no matter how old you are, if you’re 【10】 out because of some things in your life, a phone call to your parents might help you feel better.

22、 We are always using body language in our daily life. When we have a conversation with someone, we may be using more body language than words. However, the same body language may mean different things in different countries. That’s why people sometimes do not understand each other correctly. Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their heads when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means ‘He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head’. In our Chinese culture, nodding(点头) our head up and down means ‘yes’ and shaking our head from side to side means ‘no’. However, in parts of India, Greece and Turkey, it means just the opposite. In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb(拇指)and the second finger, it means ‘You’re all right or Everything is OK. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means ‘You’re worth zero’. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture(手势). Or we are thought to be very rude.
The meaning of gestures can also change over time. In the 1960s, the V sign meant ‘peace’. However, during World War II, it meant ‘victory’. In Greece, it is a very insulting(污辱性)sign.
Though the meaning of body language is different, there are some expressions having the same meaning throughout the world, such as smiling and crying.
【1】In England, if people point to their heads it means they think someone is ________.
A.clever B.stupid C.headache D.angry
【2】In India, if one nods his head up and down, it means he ______.
A.doesn’t agree B.agree C.is happy D.is sad
【3】In France, if you raise your hand and make a circle with the thumb and the second finger, it means _________.
A.you are clever B.everything is OK
C.it is true D.you are worth nothing
