21、   Nicaragua is a land of opportunity for travelers. There are vast and varied activities one can have in this country.

Hike Up the Mombacho Volcano

This two-hour hike isn’t going to be an easy one, but it is a rewarding experience and will get your heart racing. You can look forward to beautiful views of several of the four craters, spotting wildlife, and enjoying the cooler temperature. In case of any encounter with some fierce creatures, it is recommended that you hire a tour guide at the welcome center who knows how to react at an emergency.

Horseback Riding in the Cloud Forests

Horseback riding in the lush Nicaraguan countryside isn’t something to miss. To prevent any danger a suspicious horse might bring, you have to book a packaged tour through a legal agency and then accompanied by a groom, you can enjoy a morning or afternoon exploring the backroads right outside the city of Granada. The best part of this experience is a visit to the Apoyo Lagoon, a nature reserve that originated about 23,000 years ago. With a beautiful lake, it is a welcomed respite after riding in the hot sun for hours. Be sure to pack a bathing suit.

Sunbathe in the Corn Islands

Not all activities have to be adrenaline-inducing. Take a break and enjoy the sunshine on the Corn Islands. The islands are about 43 miles off the coast of Nicaragua and consist of Big Corn Island and Little Corn Island. Sunny, with warm weather year round, these islands make for the perfect vacation. Visitors can enjoy lazy beach days by the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean Sea.

Volcano Board at Cerro Negro

For those who dare to try Volcano boarding there’s no better place than Cerro Negro. Cerro Negro is still an active volcano that last erupted in 1999 and is monitored closely by the Nicaraguan Seismic Network to prepare for the immediate evacuation in case of eruptions. When the volcano is behaving itself; it is the perfect playground for adventurers.

Whichever tour company you book, you will need to be prepared to carry your board. The summit, from which you will board down, is about 2,388 feet, a height ideal for the activity. After a quick compulsory tutorial of what to do, you will put on your “flight suit”, gird your loins, and descend down the volcano. The entire experience is about three to five minutes, depending on whether you stop or roll off your board.

【1】The underlined word evacuation is closest in meaning to   ,

A.demonstration B.withdrawal C.punishment D.entertainment

【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.A tour guide is suggested for Mombacho hiking to strengthen wildness experience.

B.The experience at the Apoyo Lagoon reserve is as tiring as the horseback riding.

C.Cerro Negro is perfect for volcano board because it is still active.

D.Visitors must receive training before actually boarding from Cerro Negro peak.

【3】A person who likes taking charge of everything on his own in travel will most likely go to

A.the Mombacho Volcano

B.the Cloud Forests

C.the Corn Islands

D.Cerro Negro

22、When I was young, a friend and I came up with a “big” plan to make reading easy. The idea was to boil down great books to a sentence each. “Moby-Dick” by American writer Herman Melville, for instance, was reduced to: “A whale of a tale about the one that got away.” As it turned out, the joke was on us. How could a single sentence convey the essence (精髓) of a masterpiece with over five hundred pages?

Blinkist, a website and an app, now summarizes nonfiction titles in the form of quick takes labeled “blinks”. The end result is more than one sentence, but not by much. Sarah Bakewell’s “At the Existentialist Café” is broken into 11 screens of information; Michelle Obama’s “Becoming” fills 13.

Blinkist has been around since 2012. It calls its summaries “15-minute discoveries” to indicate how long it takes to read a Blinkist summary. “Almost none of us,” the editors assure us, “have the time to read everything we’d like to read.”

But I think a book is something we ought to live with, rather than speed through and categorize. It offers an experience as real as any other. The point of reading a book is not accumulating information, or at least not that alone. The most essential aspect is the communication between writer and reader. The idea behind Blinkist, however, is the opposite: Reading can be, should be, measured by the efficient uptake (吸收) of key ideas.

No, no, no. What’s best about reading books is its inefficiency. When reading a book, we need to dive in, let it take over us, demand something of us, teach us what it can. Blinkist is instead a service that changes books for people who don’t, in fact, want to read. A 15-minute summary misses the point of reading; speed-reading with the app isn’t reading at all.

【1】What does the underlined part “the joke was on us” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A．We were actually joking.

B．We were laughed at by others.

C．We were underestimating’ ourselves.

D．We were just embarrassing ourselves.

【2】What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A．What Blinkist is.

B．Why Blinkist is popular.

C．How to use Blinkist.

D．Where you can use Blinkist.

【3】What is an ideal pattern of reading according to the author?

A．Obtaining key ideas efficiently.

B．Further confirming our beliefs.

C．Accumulating information quickly.

D．Deeply involving ourselves in books.

【4】What is the author’s attitude to Blinkist?

A．Positive.

B．Negative

C．Uncaring.

D．Tolerant.

23、A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It's great first for what it contains：the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business，from fashion to science, and the range of comment and special feature(特写) as well，from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art theatre and music.

A newspaper is even greater for the way one reads it：never completely, never straight through，but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece，reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text.

A good modern newspaper offers a variety(多样性) to attract many different readers, but far more than the reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it also mean that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value.

For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper：what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and order, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need and without wasting time，demands skill and self-awareness as you change and apply the techniques of reading.

【1】A modern newspaper is great for all the following EXCEPT its________.

A．wide variety

B．similar style

C．speed in reporting news

D．popularity

【2】According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the same newspaper is that ________.

A．people look through the news they are interested in

B．different people prefer different newspapers

C．people are rarely interested in the same kind of news

D．people have different views about what a good newspaper is

【3】It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers________.

A．apply reading techniques skillfully

B．jump from one newspaper to another

C．appreciate the variety of a newspaper

D．usually read a newspaper selectively

【4】Which can be a suitable title for the passage?

A．How to read newspaper?

B．Where to find a good newspaper?

C．What is a good newspaper?

D．Newspaper.

【5】The author wrote the passage to_________.

A．advertise

B．introduce

C．argue

D．compare

24、The gift that never stops giving

People are going for gifts that are reused time and time again, (while also saving money), gifts that have recyclable packaging, or the recyclable elements included within them. One of the best options is to go for a green hamper (篮子).

Gift hampers can be reused

The fact that green items are frequently reusable is one of their main advantages. With a green hamper, you can reuse everything that was inside of it, including the container. Many green hampers are available in wicker (柳条) baskets, allowing you to keep the present for a long time and reuse it for other purposes.

Gift hampers are eco-friendly

A lot of people are worried about the environment and reducing CO2 emissions (排放). This is why green hampers are becoming more popular. Typically, businesses that sell green baskets will guarantee that the items inside them were manufactured by hand or in facilities with minimum CO2 emissions. However, the wicker baskets are more breakable items.

How to reuse wicker baskets

Why not keep a selection of potted plants in your wicker basket? This will look great in your dining room. With a wicker basket, for instance, place individual toiletries, towels, and blankets on the hamper for presentation in your guests’ rooms. You can give your visitors a warm, “hotel inspired” feeling.

Giving someone an awesome gift hamper that is also eco-friendly conveys a unique message to the recipient because there are so many options for gift baskets, you can fill them as you choose. This is why green hampers in particular are dominating the market.

【1】What is probably the concern of people who choose hampers?

A．Comfort.

B．Expense.

C．Security.

D．Beauty.

【2】Which can best describe the advantages of green hampers?

A．Reusable and tough.

B．Popular and costly.

C．Multipurpose and recyclable.

D．Ever-lasting and eco-friendly.

【3】What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of green hampers?

A．Favorable.

B．Intolerant.

C．Doubtful.

D．Unclear.

26、Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live, we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society.

Face-to face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of current society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed (失去优势) by international news.

No longer is the possession of information restricted to a wealthy minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago, people used to go to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a program that is being channeled into millions of homes.

Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing, educating and entertaining.
