You may have many things on your to-do list and truly want to do your best job and feel accomplished in the end of the day. But you also want to stay healthy and energetic. That’s why you’re in need of a vacation. Once you’ve dedicated all your time and energy to work and daily tasks, though, leaving them for a while doesn’t seem like the right thing to do. You may think that things will get out of control, or that you’ll be left behind and will have to hurry even more after that.But these are minor issues considering the actual benefits of vacations. Here are some of them.Taking a vacation helps you reduce stress.There’s nothing like leaving the stressful environment of your daily life and entering a new world, full of excitement. The study carried out by American Sociological Association shows that a bigger number of vacations leads to a decline in the psychological unhappiness of people.It helps you grow spiritually.One of the most important aspects of having a vacation is that you get to know yourself better. You learn new things throughout the journey, but you also experience changes on the inside. And once you get back to reality, you can benefit from these by trying new techniques to be more productive in life and in business, for example.You improve your mental health.It’s great for your brain too. Seeing new places and putting yourself in an unfamiliar environment are great for expanding your horizons, but it also improves your thinking and creativity.You connect with nature.According to a study from the University of Exeter Medical School in Britain, being closer to green space improves your mental health right away, and that effect can be sustained(保留) for longer. All these are great. And people who frequently travel (even if it’s not abroad), live a much happier life and are more productive.21. People may not like to take vacations because ____________.A.they think it a waste of time and moneyB.they worry about their tired bodiesC.they feel no sense of achievement.D.they believe they will fall behind in their work.22. According to the passage, the most beneficial thing from vacations is ____________.A.to have a broader view of the worldB.to contribute to your spiritual growthC.to be more productive in lifeD.to live a longer and happier life23.After having vacations, you will __________.A.feel accomplishedB. get out of controlC. feel less stressedD.work more hurriedlyBAustralia loves interesting money. In 1988，it was the first country to replace paper money with special plastic banknotes. Now it is introduced a new five-dollar bill so technologically advanced that many experts are calling it the money of the future!At first glance, the new note looks much like the old one. It has the same pink color and main pictures on the front and back. But look closer, and you will notice a clear window running down the middle, surrounded by images of the yellow Prickly Moses, a type of Australian plant.Tilt (使倾斜)the note a little and you will see the Eastern Spinebill, an Australian bird, beating its wings as if trying to fly away. Turn the bill from side to side, and you will notice the picture of a small building at the bottom of the note spins, and the image of M5W changes position. While these moveable features are impressive and entertaining，that was not the reason Australian government officials spent ten years developing them. Their primary purpose was to make it Impossible for criminals to produce their own fake notes.The new five-dollar note also has something to help blind people easily identify the money. It has a raised bump alongside the top and bottom，enabling blind people to quickly determine its value.The credit for persuading the Australian government to add this all-important bump goes to 15-year-old Connor McLeod. The blind Sydney teenager came up with the idea in 2014 after being unable to tell how much money he had received for Christmas. Connor says he was so embarrassed at not being able to see the difference between notes that he only carried coins to pay for food at the school cafeteria. To convince the government officials of his idea, Connor started a website that got huge public attention.The government will add this feature to the new $ 10 bill which comes out in late 2017，as well as the updated $ 20，$ 50, and $ 100 bills that are still being designed.24. Which picture does NOT move when the banknote is tilted?A. The bird.B. The number.C. The building.D. The plants.25. What was the main reason the Australian government created the new banknote?A. To help blind people more easily use money.B. To show the country’s advanced technology.C. To make the note more difficult to copy.D. To make the note’s appearance more attractiv e.26. What can we guess about Australian coins?A. They are different in size or shape.B. They are required in school cafeterias.C. They are more frequently used than notes.D. They are more convenient for young people.27. What did Connor do to persuade the government?A. He wrote a letter to the leaders.B. He sought support on the Internet.C. He organized an online meeting.D. He requested a special Christmas gift.CSome novels simply entertain and others contain a powerful message in the story line and characters. In his first novel, A Wind In Montana, Mitch Davies tells a story about young adults and how they accept responsibility for their lives.A Wind in Montana is a great tale of two teenagers, Rory Coleman and Victoria Beach, high school students at the same school, who struggle to make the right decision for themselves. As each of them nears adulthood, they become more concerned with the future and set goals that will bring them happiness and a sense of achievement.Without any advice from his parents, Rory chooses to pursue a profession in chemistry, applies for a chemistry scholarship, and determines to do everything he can to achieve it. Along the path, Rory finds that even though he has a plan, there are obstacles that could prevent him from realizing his goals. Victoria’s struggles are different from Rory’s. Although her father has decided that she should become a professional musician, Victoria has other plans for her life. Together, Rory and Victoria attempt to follow their dreams, despite the obstacles in their paths. A Wind In Montana contains a lesson for all teens about to enter adulthood —that disappointment and setbacks are going to occur no matter how determined they are and that they need to develop skills along the way that will help them deal with them effectively.Mitch Davies’ book stands out among today’s teen books that deal with imaginary situations. A Wind In Montana is a real story about real people facing real-life situations. It’s entertaining and also helps readers t hink about their own lives and offers various ways to handle situations that may arise.28. According to the passage, both Rory and Victoria _______.A. have a strong sense of selfB. pursue a profession in chemistryC. follow their parents’ adviceD. get along well with others29. The third paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the popularity of A Wind In MontanaB. Mitch Davies’ writing styleC. the content of A Wind in MontanaD. Mitch Davies’ achievements30. Unlike other teen books, A Wind In Montana ________.A. deals with some imaginary situationsB. focuses on responsibilities teens should takeC. is based on real-life experiencesD. discusses the future of young adults31. The purpose of the passage is ________.A. to speak highly of an authorB. to report a piece of newsC. to collect materials for a bookD. to review a bookDFriendship is one of the basic bonds between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft. If, however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to express their feelings, they are more likely to recover from their grief。
