21、Visit Iceland

Best Time to Go

Travel between June and August tends to be most popular with visitors. June offers 24 hours of Arctic daylight, while July and August are the warmest months, offering the best chances for good weather. Travel between mid-September and mid-October is the most ideal, as you’ll avoid the high-season tourist traffic and have a solid chance of seeing the northern lights. Although winter weather can shorten your sightseeing, excellent deals can be scored during the off-season.

Transportation

Bargain airfare prices have undercut the major transatlantic(横越大西洋的)players, with Icelandair and Wow Air servicing Keflavík International Airport directly from dozens of major U. S. cities. Car rentals are the most convenient way to explore the island, although mountain roads and general off-roading should be left to experienced guides.

Weather

Travelers should pack for all four seasons no matter the time of year. Summertime can reach levels of T-shirt comfort, while many visitors are surprised to discover that winter temperatures may be milder than America’s northeast. But a beautiful day on the western coast of the island could mean damaging storms in the east. That’s why Icelanders are famous for saying, “If you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes.” Winds can transform the weather there more than a dozen times in a single day.

Know Before You Go

Iceland’s reputation as a budget-friendly destination is very much a thing of the past. Prices have gone up greatly—alcohol and food are particularly expensive. We recommend limiting the amount of time you spend in Reykjavík as it’s always crowded with tourists. Instead, explore the smaller towns and villages along Iceland’s coast.

【1】When is the best time to visit Iceland?

A．At the end of October.

B．At the beginning of June.

C．At the end of September.

D．In the middle of December.

【2】How are general tourists advised to travel in Iceland?

A．On foot.

B．By bike.

C．By air.

D．By car.

【3】What can be known about Iceland from the text?

A．Prices there are relatively low.

B．The weather there is quite changeable.

C．June to August are the warmest months there.

D．Coastal towns and villages are more popular than Reykjavík.

22、New York Public Library

This impressive location, proudly guarded by royal-looking marble lions, is among the city’s most splendid public spaces. Of course the Rose Reading Room—who wouldn’t be inspired by all those crystal chandeliers（水晶灯）? But if you’re here for the books, you won’t be disappointed either: there are some50 million items spread out across these piles.

New York Academy of Medicine

Established in 1847 and opened to the public in1878, this library holds a thorough catalogue of medical journals, documents and other materials. The library subscribes to more than 1,000 journals, and there are more than 800,000 issues. Its historical collections even contain documentation about an 18th-century smallpox（天花）outbreak in the U.K.

The Morgan Library & Museum

Originally the private library of none other than John Pierpont Morgan—this amazing building was first intended for bookish pursuits in 1910. In 2006, a massive redecoration brought more natural light into the building and doubled the size of the exhibition space. Today, the museum welcomes visitors to see collections of original Michelangelo drawings and its theater regularly hosts concerts.

The Center for Fiction

The Center for Fiction recently opened a new location in Downtown Brooklyn that brings the old world charm of literature together. While members are required to take advantage of its upstairs library and they can get discounts on reading groups, the public is free to check out the ground floor where a part of its library sits as well as its bookstore. It’s a beautifully quiet space for literature lovers to sit and read.

【1】What’s special about New York Public Library?

23、   During a decline in tourism, one national park in Thailand has witnessed a dramatic rise in “visitors” recently. So many are the hermit crabs（寄居蟹）flooding into the otherwise empty beaches of Koh Lanta that shells for them to live in have become in short supply.

The Thai government moved quickly to ease the housing shortage, launching a public appeal for empty shells that netted over 200kg. On December 5 these were distributed around the park in a ceremony.

Hermit crabs rely on shells to protect their soft bodies, moving to larger shells as they grow. On Koh Lanta and the surrounding smaller islands, their rapid increase seems to be a natural phenomenon, rather than directly related to the absence of tourists. But the shortage of shells maybe man-made: pretty ones have long been gathered to be sold as goods. Crabs had begun to make do with potential death-traps such as plastic caps and bottles.

The shell drive was part of a government initiative to “regain the balance of nature”. “I have instructed all national parks to do whatever it takes,” says Varawut Silpa-archa, the minister for natural resources. His inspiration comes from the pause in tourism brought on by COVID-19. A ban on international visitors and the closure of national parks have helped nature recover, bringing endangered leatherback turtles back onto Thai beaches. In the coastal provinces of Phang Nga and Phuket, turtles have laid the largest number of eggs for 20 years.

The government has decided to try to copy the short break forced on it by COVID-19 in future. From now on, all national parks will be required to close for a short period during the off season and to limit the number of tourists through a reservation system when they are open. Although such restrictions mean reduced earnings from tourism in the short term, in the longer run more parks may help to keep the tourists coming.

【1】What happened to the beaches of Koh Lanta recently?

A．They saw a constant stream of tourists.

B．They were packed with hermit crabs.

C．They became completely empty.

D．They got flooded by seawater.

【2】What’s the author’s attitude towards human’s behaviors?

A．Supportive.

B．Indifferent.

C．Critical.

D．Not mentioned.

【3】Why are turtles mentioned in Paragraph4?

A．To warn turtles are dying out.

B．To stress ecological diversity of Thailand.

C．To illustrate the birth of Varawut’s inspiration.

D．To prove beaches are their ideal habitats.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．Authorities Help to Find Shelters for Homeless Hermit Crabs

B．Developing Economy or Protecting Animals?

C．Governments Are Responsible for the Balance of Nature

D．Closing National Parks or Drawing More Visitors?

24、I still remember when I moved to Mexico City in 2014, my husband and I spent most of our free time exploring the city of 20 million. We squeezed our way through massive crowds that had traveled across the country to pray to the Virgin of Guadalupe, Mexico's patron saint. We spent hours in crowded fruit and vegetable markets, looking for the perfect mango milkshake or vendors selling the most interesting-sounding things. Once our two children were born, we made more stops at nearby parks, catching up with friends on the playground or testing out new flavors of food.

The idea of being alone was laughable: I remember once looking out of my office window, pre-pandemic, and not seeing a single person on the block. I recall it vividly because it seemed utterly apocalyptic—and it never happened again.

Over the past nine months of the pandemic, our lives have moved increasingly indoors. We avoid the still-crowded restaurants and city plazas.

Except on weekends. On a recent morning, we drove about 30 minutes to Los Dinamos, a vast, mountainous, densely forested national park. A few minutes into our walk, my eyes followed the muddy, rocky path until it turned a green corner in the distance. I listened to the sound of rushing water from the river below and the twittering of birds hidden in the branches above. And then I realized with a shock: we're alone. In a city of millions where a quiet night is often interrupted with sounds of tamale or sweet-potato vendors walking the streets with their high-pitched whistles or recorded sales pitches, we had transported ourselves into another kingdom.

I often tell people what I miss most about pre-pandemic life is the buzz of the city. Yes, I miss the hustle and bustle, but I'm not sure whether it's what I need right now. Now I need these walks on pine-needle-covered trails with my young daughters；I need to breathe in truly fresh air；I need to trick my kids(and my husband) ahead with promises of snacks and perfect picnic spots；I need to be with my family—even as I miss my parents, siblings, and friends extremely—in the heart of a forest on the edge of a big city in the midst of a pandemic.

It's a reminder that there is life all around me, even if I can't spend time mixing with others.

【1】Why did more people come to Mexico City across the country?

A．To enjoy themselves at parks.

B．To sell fruit and vegetables at markets.

C．To enjoy delicious foods.

D．To show their religious belief.

【2】What has never happened again?

A．Looking out of the office window.

B．Nobody being found on the block.

C．The coming of the idea of being alone.

D．Meeting friends on the playground.

【3】What did the author realize at Los Dinamos suddenly?

A．They came to the park to explore the unknown.

B．They felt lonely in a city of millions.

C．They enjoyed valuable moments of stillness.

D．They were tired of the busy reality.

【4】What does the hiking in the forest remind the author?

A．Her beloved are around in the pandemic.

B．Being outside is a way to reduce pandemic pressure.

C．The pandemic requires people not to mix with others.

D．People miss their friends and family in the pandemic.

25、Optimism and pessimism(消极) are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose which we want to ________ our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or ________. It’s our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in ________ or down in desperation?

I believe in the upward look. I choose to ________ the positive and skip right over the negative.

An optimistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); it’s a(n) ________. The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. ________, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations ________ themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy (预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.

Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) ________ question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You don’t look well,” he replied. This ________ me completely by surprise. A little ________ confidently, I told him that I had ________ felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.

By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little ________. About a block away, I ________ over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I ________ some rare disease?

On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling ________ again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful ________, and the light reflecting ________ the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had ________ the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total ________ change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single ________ observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.

The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished.

26、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

LESSONS LEARNED OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM

Mr. Gray was my history teacher in tenth grade. I couldn’t tell what kind of history he taught for two reasons: one, I never liked history, and two, my body was in class, but my mind wasn’t. Mr. Gray wasn’t the teacher who offered retakes (补考) on tests; he did so much more for me than that. He offered me a pair of ears and a shoulder to cry on.

Before Mr. Gray came along, one major event was taking place in my life. My mom told me she wanted to divorce my dad. Why then? I didn’t understand. I barricaded (筑起壁垒) myself in my basement bedroom, listening to angry music and sleeping. I fell into a depression and my grades were falling. Then there was Mr. Gray.

I sat against a brick wall outside the library, knees pulled into my chest, head down, surrounded by my noisy friends that I was slowly distancing myself from, when I heard his voice: “Ever feel like you’re a fire hydrant (消防栓) and every dog in the neighborhood is stopping by to visit you?” I picked my head up and then I saw Mr. Gray.

I had heard him use this line in the classroom a few times before, when it looked like a kid was having a bad day. It usually aroused a laugh and ended there. This time was different though — he was waiting for an answer. Next thing I knew I was following him into the library.

We sat amongst the shelves of the mostly empty library for the rest of lunchtime. I don’t remember much about that first conversation other than the unconditional promise he made me of lending a pair of ears and a shoulder to cry on. What made him such a special teacher was that he saw that I was struggling and reached out to me outside of the classroom.
