26、   The following destinations are highly recommended by Lonely Planet.

1.Bhutan

The Kingdom of Bhutan, located on the Silk Road in South Asia, claimed the No. 1 spot partly for its beauty and because it is set to become the first fully organic nation by 2021.

The kingdom has lush (郁郁葱葱的) plains in the south and sub-alpine Himalayan mountains in the north, which include Gangkhar Puensum, Bhulan's highest peak and believed to be the highest unclimbed mountain in the world.

2.Aruba

Tourists know this Caribbean getaway for its white-sand beaches, sparkling waters, and laid-back resorts. Aruba's temperatures usually stay around 27℃—making a dip in the water seem too good to pass up.

3.Costa Rica

Costa Rica is beloved for many reasons, from its coffee to its epic surfing.

It's also notable for its reliance on green energy sources. In fact, 90% of its energy is created by renewable sources, such as wind and hydro. It is also one of the world's most biodiverse countries—home to half a million species.

And of course, no trip to Costa Rica is complete without a visit to the Sloth Sanctuary.

4. Morocco

The Kingdom of Morocco, known as the place the sun sets, is a romantic and exotic destination, and it is known as a safe place to visit. Many people are drawn to its beaches, but its ancient cities, such as Casablanca and Marrakesh, attract the most visitors.

27、The reason why women love to spend hours in shops while men prefer to be in and out of the high street in minutes can trace back(追溯) to their hunter-gathering past, find scientists.

While women spent their days gathering food, often with children, men were hunters who made plans about how to catch and kill their prey (猎物). These two ways of getting food in the past show how we shop in modern times, the study believes.

Women would spend hours trying to find the right things, because they had in the past spent ages trying to find the best quality and health-giving food. Men, on the other hand, decided in advance what animal they wanted to kill and then went looking for it. Once it was found and killed, they returned home.

Daniel Kruger, professor of the University of Michigan, said the study could be the answer to why there are a lot of collisions when couples go shopping together. He said it could also help couples to avoid fights in the shops if they understood the reasons why each sex had different ways of deciding on the perfect present.

“In modern times, women are much more likely than men to know when a specific type of item will go on sale. Women also spend much more time choosing the perfect color and texture.”

Professor Kruger said his study was important because if men and women understood each other’s shopping habits they could avoid arguments while shopping.

【1】What has decided the different shopping habits of men and women?

A. Different ways of keeping food in the past.

B. Different ways of eating in the past.

C. Different ways of buying food in the past.

D. Different ways of gathering food in the past.

【2】In comparison(比较) with men, women were less likely to_____.

A. catch the right animal and kill it.

B. spend much time on shopping.

C. choose the right color and texture.

D. know when a specific item was on sale.

【3】What does the underlined word mean in the fourth paragraph?

A. Requests   B. Arguments.

C. Concerns. D. Differences.

【4】According to Kruger, his study can help to _____.

A. develop good shopping habits.

B. avoid arguments in shopping between men and women.

C. give people tips on choosing good gifts.

D. make sure people buy safe food for children.

Booking with TourRadar was a great experience for me. It gives me different types of to choose before the booking, Also the booking steps are easy to follow and they provide all information I need. Customer service answered my questions in a very clear and fast manner.

Sally M ★

I advise you not to book with this company. I booked a trip to Switzerland and it was called off by the company. They would not pay back the insurance(保险)we took out to protect the trip. It is difficult to get in touch with the company when you have a problem. They don’t answer emails.

Katy M ★★★

The tour (London to Rome)was acceptable overall . Below are the Pros and Cons(利与弊) . Pros

1. A comfortable bus that was not too crowded

2. The breakfast hotels provided was good

Cons

The biggest complaint(不满)is that the hotels provided were always a long way from the city center. We were put in a hotel that was an hour out of London(with traffic). The same thing happened at every visited city—VERY disappointing.

Dianna S ★★★★★

Would highly recommend TourRadar! I myself, along with two lady friends, have just enjoyed a very good 5-night private tour of Romania. Our tour guide Vlad was wonderful in every way. We were very lucky to be the only 3 passengers in a large and comfortable bus. The places we visited were just impressive. Hotels were so well-located and comfortable. We enjoy this tour. It’s well worth the cost.

29、Baseball was always where my heart lay. However, my father did not care for baseball. Two sports he enjoyed were golfing and fishing, neither of which I considered a real sport. He didn’t talk much and he wasn’t good at expressing himself. Frankly, I wasn’t sure he cared about me. In a way, my father was like a familiar stranger I saw every day.

One day, watching the play on television made me want a glove of my own. To my surprise, my father said he wanted one, too. We bought two gloves, and that evening, he suggested we go out to the courtyard and throw the ball around. I’d already practiced catching and throwing at school, but I could tell this was the first time for my father, because every time he caught the ball, it landed directly in his palm. If you’ve ever caught a ball with a baseball glove, you know how much this hurts.

But my father caught ball after ball this way. Slap! Slap! He winced (龇牙咧嘴). After about five minutes, I told him I’d had enough. It wasn’t out of mercy, but for my own self-interest. Neighborhood kids were watching and would no doubt laugh at me later for having an old man who didn’t know how to properly catch a baseball. When my father took the glove off, his palm was red and swollen.

Dad, who passed away 11 years ago, never told me he loved me. But that sound of the baseball landing in his hand over and over again — it spoke its own tender language, though at the time, all I felt was shame.

B．The author’s father didn’t regard golfing as a real sport.

【2】Why did the father want a glove?

A．He wanted to make the author happy.

B．He was impressed by the play on television.

C．He wanted to show his improvement in baseball.

D．He was interested in baseball.

【3】What can we learn from paragraph 3?

A．The father didn’t hurt when catching the ball.

B．The father didn’t understand his child at all.

C．The author shouted at his father when playing.

D．The author didn’t realize his father’s love at first.

【4】What could be the best title for the passage?

30、With consumers growing increasingly upset with online advertising and privacy concerns, how do you convince shoppers to believe your description, _________ your product?

A recent report by a software review company that connects buyers and sellers may be able to _________ some light. It turns out that it may actually benefit brands to be painfully _________ about their products.

Consumer awareness of influencer marketing strategies (网红营销策略) is increasing. _________, most consumers trust online _________ as much as recommendations from friends. Feedback (反馈) from common people, it seems, actually carries more _________ than a brand ambassador (品牌大使).

Transparency (透明度) is significant. The report found that there is a large trust _________ between sellers and buyers. While sellers believe they are transparent, most buyers don’t appear to see it. During the sales process, 85 percent of sellers _________ to be open about their product’s limitations, but only 36 percent of buyers share that same view. The reality is, consumers never expect any products to be _________; they just want to ____________ the options that are best for them. They also want brands to be more ____________. 66 percent of consumers say they will leave a company if they feel they are being treated like a number and not an individual.

Along with fake (假的) news, advertising fraud (诈骗), and data leaks (泄露), there have been fake reviews as well. Many sellers are using the platform to ____________ Amazon with positive reviews that aren’t from real buyers, making building trust even more difficult. Review sites have been ____________ giving preferential treatment to paid advertisers and consumers are increasingly discerning (有辨别能力的), as a result.

____________, review sites are not our only source of reviews, with social media providing customer experiences on a second-to-second basis. When brands treat every ____________ with a customer as a potential review, they’ll start paying attention to delivering a valued and memorable experience every time. Taking feedback ____________ also lets current customers feel valued and respected, thus making your business seem more approachable. This helps get ____________, and these customers will become brand ambassadors to their friends and people they meet online.

The challenge for brands today is determining how to use the ____________ of the consumer to their advantage. In an age of advanced technology, artificial intelligence, and self-service customer care, it’s odd to admit that the best way to build trust with your customers is by holding an open ____________ with them. Being more human, transparent, and listening to what people are saying will see your company ____________ in an age marked by consumer suspicion (怀疑).
