21、Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.

What to Expect

The host will provide accommodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.

Accommodation Zones

Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.

Meal Plans Available

◇ Continental Breakfast

◇ Breakfast and Dinner

◇ Breakfast,  Packed Lunch and Dinner

It's important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal, bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.

Friends

If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host's permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.

Self-Catering (自助的)Accommodation in Private Homes

Accommodation on a room only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practice English at home quite as much.

【1】The passage is probably written for________.

A. hosts willing to receive foreign students

B. foreigners hoping to build British culture

C. travelers planning to visit families in London

D. English learners applying to live in English homes

【2】Which of the following will the host provide?

B. To enjoy much more freedom.

C. To entertain friends as they like.

D. To experience a warmer family atmosphere.

22、Ecotourism is defined as “responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local people”. But it can be more than just that.

Ecotourism can also be done in urban areas.

Ecotourism is all about visiting new places in a responsible and eco-conscious way, whether such places are in a natural area or not. Urban ecotourism includes locally-owned restaurants that source seasonal ingredients from local growers, or spending time in national, regional and city parks. Use of public transport, bicycles, and ferries, is also part of urban ecotourism, as well as staying in locally-owned or green accommodations.

Where you go is important.

As an eco-tourist, how to get to your destination is just as important as where you stay for the night. Consider finding creative ways to enjoy your journey, like avoiding freeways and passing through scenic towns or taking the train and admiring the landscape through the window.

Ecotourism is just about nature.

Ecotourism is also about getting closer to the culture of your destination. On another note, ecotourism brings an opportunity for tourists to volunteer and provide assistance with a variety of projects such as monitoring local wildlife or restoring coral reefs. Volunteering gets you to know about your destination from a different perspective, establish new friendships, practice speaking new languages, and discover a new field of interest.

Ecotourism caters to(迎合)tourists.

Ecotourism is not just about getting away from the stress of life, but also allowing you to experience your destination through the eyes of locals. There are home-staying programs that connect travelers with families who are willing to host your stay for a few days and even show you around while you are there. The local family can provide you with inside advice on the best places to eat, hike, swim, and other sites worth visiting.

【1】Which of the following belongs to ecotourism according to the text?

A．Living in a hotel.

B．Traveling by car.

C．Staying in a park.

D．Eating canned food

【2】What volunteer activity can eco-tourists participate in?

A．Taking notes of the local culture.

B．Getting involved in local communities.

C．Sharing your interests with the locals.

D．Helping watch and check local wildlife.

【3】What is the advantage of taking part in a home-staying program?

A．It saves you a lot of money.

B．It gives you more to enjoy.

C．It makes your trip adventurous.

D．It offers you everything.

23、Self-acceptance is to accept yourself unconditionally (无条件地). 【1】 Accepting yourself can help you become more natural and real. However, if you don’t accept yourself, you will constantly feel unhappy about your past or yourself. So read on to get some practical suggestions on how to do it.

Positive relationships are the first part of self-acceptance. People around you play an important role in your life. You need to surround yourself with people who accept you for whom you are.【2】

Learn to forgive yourself for all your past faults or regrets. Everyone has their weaknesses and everyone makes mistakes. Accept all your choices or decisions you have made until now. 【3】 You might have had many dreams which were unrealized, but you need to forgive yourself now. Understand that you cannot control your past.

Self-compassion (自我同情) and gratitude are two most important things for achieving self- acceptance. 【4】 That means being kind to yourself, treating yourself well and celebrating every win. Gratitude includes thanking and appreciating yourself for the person who you are and the things you achieve. Value all the good things you have about yourself.

【5】 Talk to yourself as you would talk to a friend. Encourage yourself by patting your shoulder for your achievements. Include positive statements in your day, such as “You are beautiful” and “Well done”. After all, only when you accept yourself can you accept others.

A．Using positive self-talk can help a lot.

B．Let go of the past and try to stop blaming yourself.

C．Self-compassion involves not allowing sad thoughts to defeat you.

D．Thinking that you must be perfect is harmful to self-acceptance.

E．Accepting your weaknesses can really help you achieve self-acceptance.

F．It means being aware of your own strengths and weaknesses and accepting yourself for whom you are.

G．So always keep checking out your circle and understand whether the people around you are positive or not.

24、The Iroquois named the great waterfall Niagara，which means “thunder of waters”．For people living near the falls in New York State or Canada，the thunder of falling water never stops—well，almost never．

On March 29，1848，the usually early signs of spring were coming to the Niagara Falls area．Snow was beginning to melt，and the air was losing its chilly bite .In the late afternoon，however，people began looking at each other as if to ask，“Something’s different．What is it?”Then they realized．The air was strangely silent；the thunder of the falls had stopped．

The people had been used to that dull roar(轰鸣)all their lives．They ran to the falls to see what had happened．To their astonishment，they found the riverbed above the falls empty．The  bottom of Niagara River lay exposed，with just a few trickles and puddles of water remaining among the rocks and mud．As word of the mysterious event spread，hundreds of people flocked to the scene—then thousands．After nightfall countless lanterns could be seen shining along the banks as New Yorkers and Canadians camped at the river’s edge，waiting to see the unusual sight at dawn．

Most who lived or came there were merely curious，but others felt a deep fear．Something unknown had upset the unchanging order of nature．What might happen next?

By the next day，5，000 people were there．Those who were brave began walking into the riverbed and to the base of the falls. They found arrowheads and other objects that had lain there for years—perhaps for ages．

For 30 hours the Niagara Rivet lay dry．Then came a distant roar，growing louder．People  scrambled up the banks．The waters rushed back，and all was as it had been．What had caused the river and the falls to stop? Only later did the people learn that a huge ice jam upstream had temporarily dammed the Niagara River．The fears were gone，but no one would forget the day the fails stopped．

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

This past summer, my family went on our annual vacation in a cottage on a lake. There were various activities to keep everyone busy: swimming, fishing and building sand castle on the beach. In the evenings, we gathered on the beach, having great fun.

However, by the third day of our vacation, I noticed my sister, Jane, spent most of her time watching videos and looking through online shops indoors. She was so addicted to her cell phone! Over dinner, I told Jane we would hike to the top of the mountain across the lake the following morning. I stared at her, “Put your phone away and enjoy the scenery. It's really amazing. ”

“Well,” Jane shrugged (耸) her shoulders and answered unwillingly, “there are some bargains tomorrow in several online shops, so I'll not be available.”

“Come out to enjoy the fresh air and many views. Hiking is fun!”

“Sounds more like punishment than a vacation,” she didn't look up from her soup and mumbled (嘟囔), “I cannot walk that far. ”

When I said it only took half an hour of steady walking to climb to the top, she nodded, “OK, I'll go.”

The next morning was perfect for a hike, with sunny clear skies and gentle winds. I got up early and packed some sandwiches and bottles of water into my backpack along with the camera. Jane came slowly downstairs, and announced in a very unenthusiastic voice, “I'm ready to go, Jim.”

Anyway, we stepped out of our cottage and quite a different view unfolded before our eyes. Against the blue skies, a rough path wound to the top of the mountain across the lake with wild flowers and grass on both sides. The sunlight brightened on the glassy surface of the lake. We began from the path. “I'm still wondering if this is a good idea, but if you could do it, I could also do.” She complained, frowning.
