26、   One of the best aspects of travel is discovery. Whether you’re immersing yourself in a brand new culture or wandering (闲逛) the streets of a foreign city, you’re finding new things to see and experience. Part of that discovery is in what you learn about yourself. 【1】.

Here are some of those ways:

【2】

Travel means new foods, cultures and places to explore. Try speaking that new language or eat a new kind of food you never knew existed. When you’re thrown outside of your normal circumstances (环境), you’ll discover more about who you are and what you’re like.

The chance to reinvent yourself

At home, people can see you a certain way and pigeonhole (主观划分某人为) you into a personality type that can be hard to escape. 【3】. You’re free to break away from how people normally see you and reinvent yourself.

【4】

You’ve just traveled across a country, tried a new language and haggled (讨价还价) over prices in a market. They’re all things you didn’t know you could do before, but you dug up a new-found sense of adventure and somehow made it work. With travel, comes challenges. And the more challenges you take on, the more sure of yourself you become.

Planning and organizing skills

What’s the best route to take so I see all the major attractions? What’s the best way to get to the next city and back so I don’t miss my flight? How should I organize my itinerary (行程)? 【5】.

You have to organize your trip so that you have a place to stay and transportation to and from certain destinations.

A.Building confidence

B.Travel is about making choices

C.Forcing you out of your comfort zone

D.Trips don’t always go according to plan

E.Having time to reflect on your life

F.Travel can give you a chance to explore other sides of your personality

G.Like most experiences, travel can change you in ways you might never have expected

27、

When I awoke, it was morning. I tried to stand up, but I could not move.

At first, I thought that yesterday’s dangers had made my body too weak and too tired to move. Then, suddenly, I heard some very strange noises. As I listened, I heard the sounds of people around me, but I could see no one. “So I am not alone here! Thank God!” I thought. I tried to turn my head, but I could not move it in any direction. I turned my eyes down to look at my body and saw that I had been tied down to the ground with hundreds of small ropes.

Just at that moment, I felt something moving up my leg. It was small and light and I thought that perhaps it was a small animal like a mouse or something. I felt the thing touch my chin and looked down to see what sort of animal was climbing on me.

I had never been as shocked in my life as I was at that moment. Standing on my chest was a tiny person! The little man stood on my chest, pulled out a tiny sword, and pointed it at my head. As I stared at him in surprise, the little man shouted something in a strange language. “Hekinah degu!” he said. I had no idea what this meant, but I guessed that it was not a friendly greeting.

I did not know what to do, but I wanted to get free from the ropes. I moved my body back and forth, trying to break the ropes. When I freed my left arm, the little people began to shout loudly. Quickly, I used my arm to pull off the ropes that held my head to the ground.

A moment later, hundreds of small arrows flew through the air and hit my hands and face. They felt like tiny needles in my skin. I shouted in pain and raised my hands to cover my face. Many small men jumped onto my body and began to attack me with their swords. I guessed they were angry. I was trying to escape from them, so I decided the best thing to do was put my hands down and lie quietly. (Adapted from Gulliver’s Travels)

【1】How did Gulliver feel when hearing sounds of people around him?

A.Frightened B.Dangerous C.Disappointed D.Delighted

【2】Why couldn’t Gulliver move when he woke up?

A.He was too tired and too weak.

B.Someone tied him to the ground.

C.He sank in thought after awaking.

D.Strange voices caught his attention.

【3】What does Paras 4&5 mainly tell us?

A.Gulliver’s words caused the tiny men’s anger.

B.Gulliver managed to defeat the tiny men again.

C.They failed to communicate well with each other.

D.Neither of them was willing to reach an agreement.

【4】What can be learned from the underlined sentence in Para 6?

A.He was afraid of the tiny men’s second attack and decided to lie still.

B.He wanted to calm the tiny men down and waited for another chance.

C.He was tired after fighting against the tiny men and wanted to have a rest.

D.He got a better understanding of his present situation and gave up at last.

28、Earthquakes strike without warning and are among the most destructive natural disasters. Keeping calm and proper reaction can sometimes save your life. To ride out an earthquake, remember the phrase “drop, cover, and hold on.” 【1】

1. Move away from buildings, street lights, power lines, and bridges.

【2】 As soon as the ground begins shaking, try to get as far away as possible from any nearby structures. Do not seek shelter under a bridge or overpass.

2. Crouch down low in a wide open area until the shaking stops.

Once you've made your way away from nearby structures, get on your hands and knees and cover your head. See if there are any objects nearby to use as a shield (遮蔽物）, such as a trash can lid. 【3】

3. 【4】

As you go out after the earthquake, be careful of broken glass, rubble, downed power lines, fallen trees, and any other potential danger. Check yourself and anyone nearby for injuries. If necessary,perform first aid and call emergency services.

4. Get to higher ground if you're on the shore or near a dam.

Earth quakes can cause tsunamis, so put distance between yourself and the coast. If a shaking lasts more than 20 seconds, 【5】 Get to ground that's at least 100 ft (30 m)above sea level or 2 miles (3.2 km)from the shore.

A．Drop to your hands and knees under a table or desk.

B．Watch out for danger as you observe your surroundings.

G．If none are available, cover your head and neck with your hands and arms.

29、Habitat loss, pesticides (农药) and climate change are threatening insect populations worldwide. In 2019, Biological Conservation reported that 40% of all insects species are declining (减少) globally and that a third of them are endangered.

And while it may sound nice to live in a world with fewer bad insects, environmental writer Oliver Milman says that human beings would be in big trouble without insects. That’s because insects play important roles in pollinating (给……授粉) plants we eat, breaking down waste in forest soil and forming the base of a food chain that other larger animals—including humans—rely upon.

“It would be an extremely terrible place to live in—and certainly not something we should ever aim for.” Milman says of an insect-free existence. “You would certainly have mass starvation and social unrest... It’d be a place where there would be smelly waste and dead bodies everywhere because insects that break down those materials would be gone.”

Milman charts the troubling decline of insects in his new book, The Insect Crisis: The Fall of the Tiny Empires That Run the World. He says that while it’s impossible to know exactly what’s happening with every insect species in the world, the overall trends are not good: The butterfly population in North America has declined quickly in the past 40 years, for example, and a U. N. assessment done in 2019 found that half a million insect species are under threat of extinction, some in the coming decades.

“The world, our surroundings, would be far quieter, far duller without insects.” he says. “When you start kind of digging down into these figures looking at the research, it’s clear that there’s something seriously wrong... There is a straight decline in most insect populations, and that spells major trouble for them but also for us.”

【1】What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about insects?

A．Their classification.

B．Their importance.

C．Their food chain.

D．Their population.

【2】What can be inferred about Milman’s new book?

A．It describes the worrying decline of insects.

B．It tells what’s happening with all insect species.

C．It shows half a million butterfly species will be in danger of extinction.

D．It explains why the number of butterflies in South America has increased.

【3】What is the author’s attitude to the decline of insect population?

A．Positive.

B．Unconcerned.

C．Worried.

D．Doubtful.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A．The introduction of the endangered insects.

B．The effects of the declining insects’ population.

C．The ways of increasing insects’ population.

D．The reasons of threatening insects’ population.
