Plan your dream vacation to one of these excellent destinations.

St. Lucia

Abundant rainforests and splendid mountains are all reasons to visit this Caribbean island. St.

Lucia offers the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. To take in the breathtaking scenery, plan

to hike the Piton Mountains or dive in the waters of Anse Chastanet.

Banff. Alberta

This Canadian destination will bring out the explorer in anyone who visits. From hiking and

whitewater rafting to skiing and snowboarding, Banff offers travelers an abundance of year-round

outdoor activities. The Lake Louise Ski Resort is one of the largest in North America and the

striking photo opportunities of the Canadian Rockies from Moraine Lake can't be underestimated

(低估).

Machu Picchu

According to travelers, a visit to this Peruvian UNESCO World Heritage (遗产) site is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Located in the Andes Mountains, it is the most familiar icon (象征物) of Inca

civilization. Spend a few days accustoming yourself to the altitude in the neighboring city of

Cusco, where you can experience a mix of Incan and Spanish cultures.

Great Barrier Reef

It's easy to see why the Great Barrier Reef is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World –

it stretches nearly 1,500 miles along the eastern coastline of Australia and features about 3,000

reefs, 900 islands and more than 1,500 species of fish. Travelers can see these amazing natural

structures from the air or underwater. However, large amounts of coral bleaching (褪色) caused

by rising ocean temperatures put this place's continued existence at risk, so plan your visit soon

to see this awesome sight up close.

（1）What can you enjoy both in St. Lucia and Banff? A. Hiking. B. Skiing. C. Diving. D. Snowboarding.

（2）Where may a historian choose to go? A. St. Lucia. B. Banff. Alberta. C. Machu Picchu. D. Great Barrier Reef

（3）What do we know about the Great Barrier Reef?

A. It's on the western coast of Australia. B. It's famous for coral reefs rather than fish. C. People must take a plane to enjoy its beauty. D. It may disappear if temperature keeps on

rising.

【答案】（1）A

（2）C

（3）D

waters of Anse Chastanet.”和Banff. Alberta部分中的“From hiking and whitewater rafting to skiing and snowboarding, Banff offers travelers an abundance of year-round outdoor activities.”可知在St. Lucia和 Banff人们都可以徒步旅行，故选A。

（2）考查细节理解。根据Machu Picchu部分中的“a visit to this Peruvian UNESCO World

Heritage (遗产) site is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.和Spend a few days accustoming yourself

to the altitude in the neighboring city of Cusco, where you can experience a mix of Incan and

Spanish cultures.”可知历史学家们可以在这里参观联合国教科文组织世界遗产遗址，体验印加文化和西班牙文化的融合。故选C。

（3）考查推理判断。根据Great Barrier Reef部分中的“large amounts of coral bleaching (褪色)

caused by rising ocean temperatures put this place's continued existence at risk, so plan your visit

What do Leonardo da Vincii, Marie Curie, and Albert Einstein have in common? They were all

left-handed, along with other famous people including Brad Pitt Prince William, and Barack

Obama. In fact, an estimated 13 percent of the world's population may be left-handed and still

most people around the world are right-handed.

What makes a person become right-handed rather than left-handed? As yet no one really

knows for sure. One simple idea suggests that people normally get right-handedness from their

parents. Studies have found that two right-handed parents have only a 9.5 percent chance of

having a left-handed child, whereas two left-handed parents have a 26 percent chance of having

a left-handed child. Another common theory is that left-handed people suffer mild brain damage

during birth, which makes them left-handed. However, if this theory were true, it would not

explain why the percentage of left-banded people is so similar in every society, when birth

conditions vary so much from society to society.

Whatever the reasons behind it, people's attitudes toward left-handedness have changed a lot

over the years. Statistics show that although 13 percent of young people (10-20 years old) are

left-handed, only 6 percent of the elderly are left-handed. Left-handed children used to be

Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet

the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years,

developments in technology have moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality.

Now, two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon.

The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype (原型) of its flying bicycle.

Grant Stapleton, marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics, says the Hoverbike is able to get

in and out of small spaces very quickly. It can be moved across continents very quickly because it

can be folded and packed, he adds.

Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company's main concern. He says the designers solved the

Science fiction is a popular kind of writing, and many people think of Jules Verne（凡尔纳） as

the father of science fiction. He was born in France in 1828. His father wanted him to become a

lawyer, but from his early 20s Verne decided to become a writer. At first he wrote plays for the

theater. Then, in 1863, he wrote a story called Five Weeks in a Balloon. The success of this book

encouraged him to write more stories such as A Journey to the Center of the Earth（1864） and

From the Earth to the Moon（1865）.

In the 19th century, many people were interested in science and inventions. Jules Verne wrote

about scientific subjects in his stories and, as a result, they were very popular. Verne's writing

included many predictions（预言） for the 20th century and many of them came true. He

The killdeer, a small bird known for its high-pitched(声调高的)call, could lead to the

cancellation(取消) of one of Canada' biggest music festivals.

The first hint of trouble for Ottawa's Bluesfest, an outdoor festival that draws around 300,000

people each year, came last week after workers at the site found one of the birds. It had laid four

eggs nearby, effectively claiming the main stage area as its nesting ground. "This is one of the

most challenging problems we've been presented with, but we feel we can work through this,"

said Mark Monahan, executive director of the festival. "Anything that changes the schedule has a

major effect, so we're taking it very seriously."

The discovery meant that government officials rushed to protect the nest and the eggs, hiring a
