21、Getting around in Canada is fairly easy. Most cities have urban transportation systems, including buses, streetcars, and trains, and some of the larger cities also have subways.
You can board these systems at regular stops along their routes. Some let you pay with cash; others require tickets. If you don’t have a ticket for the bus, you must pay with the right amount of money. This is because the driver does not carry any change. Once you get settled, you may want to buy a monthly pass or a package of tickets to save money. You can buy subway tickets at the subway station.
If you have to take several buses or the subway for a single trip, you do not need to pay any money each time. Simply ask the driver for a transfer or pick one up from the machines on the subway platform.
If you are not sure where to board the bus or the streetcar, just ask someone, or follow the crowd. It’s usually at the front of the bus, where you show your pass to the driver. When using public transportation, Canadians line up. First come, first served, is a common approach to many activities in Canada.
Maps of routes and schedules are usually available from the public transit company in your area, and there may also be a telephone information line. You may want to ask someone for the name of the transit company where you live, and then look it up in your telephone book.

22、These large hairy creatures have been sighted around the world, and they appear frequently in ancient folklore. Here are some of the best places you should visit as you search for Yeti and Bigfoot.
Willow Creek, California
Called the gateway to Bigfoot Country, Willow Creek is the site of the most famous Bigfoot footage—the classic photo of the dark, hairy creature traveling across the actual Willow Creek in Six Rivers National Forest. A museum in the town houses a series of casts of Bigfeet's footprints, photos, and other information and evidence about the being.
Ontario, Canada
A hunter and his wife thought it was a moose (麋鹿) call when they heard a long loud shout in the northwestern Ontario wilderness, but then they heard it again and found some big humanoid footprints. BFRO has 68 Bigfoot reports from Ontario, the most recent of which was in July 2020 when campers reported hearing howls and cracking branches near their campsite.
Michigan's Upper Peninsula
There have been hundreds of sightings of Bigfoot in the Upper Peninsula, and some witnesses claim to have seen entire packs of the ape-like creatures. The Upper Peninsula is heavily wooded and offers many areas for the monsters to hide.
Fouke, Arkansas
The small town in southwest Arkansas is known as the Bigfoot Capital of the midwestern state. A reported Bigfoot attack in Fouke even inspired a 1970s film called The Legend of Boggy Creek. When reports of the monster first made the rounds in the mid-1800s, residents assumed the creature was a survivor of the New Madrid earthquake who had lost his mind from the injury.

23、It was the summer of my 16th year. I was 2,000 miles away from home and my heart was aching. I had travelled from the mountains of West Virginia to the great plains of Iowa. I was with a group of boys touring a college.
When the trip first started, I was filled with excitement. It was going to be a week of adventure, a week of travel, and the change of starting on a new path in my life. Now five days later I was filled with sadness. I missed my Mom. I missed my Dad. I missed my old, Italian grandmother. I missed the mountains, the green trees, and the smell of the wild flowers in the summertime.
I walked outside and sat down on a chair. I knew that I was at a crossroads and that the decision I was about to make would affect the rest of my life. This college had sounded so good to me a few weeks before. Now, however, I knew that I could never go to college here.
Since that day I have been at many crossroads in my life. Sometimes I have made the wrong choice and have to give up to make things right. More often than not, though, I have felt greatly encouraged and made the choices that took me where I needed to go and helped me to become who I needed to be. Through all this, I have felt my confidence grow deeper and the love in my heart grow stronger. And that, more than anything, has kept me on the right road.
Life is a long and difficult journey but we all can take comfort in knowing that we are loved and watched over every step of the way. Let Love guide your steps and you will always be on your own path.

24、 If you follow any people who like traveling on Instagram, you’ve probably noticed they’ve posted amazing photos from Portugal in the last few years, especially during peak summer months. Mario Fernandes, a co-creator and the editor of Golisbon said he had seen increased interest in traveling to Portugal in the past five years, particularly in the last two or three. Cindy Goldberger, a travel adviser for Hiatus, an agency in Brooklyn, New York, said that she noticed an increase in Portugal trips about three years ago and that she gets more requests to plan people’s visits there every year. According to Reuters, the number of foreign tourists visiting Portugal hit a record for 2017, and in the same year the country won the world’s leading destination at the World Travel Awards.
Fernandes suggested it’s because Portugal is safe and more affordable than many other Western European countries. The country’s frequent sunshine is also attractive to many visitors. The Algarve, the southernmost area of Portugal, is home to “some of Europe’s most beautiful beaches,” according to Fenandes. Goldberger noted that many airlines have offered better routes to the country in recent years. She’s also a fan of the new hotels that have opened, including farms that have become hotels.
Eric Hrubant, the president of Cire Travel, noted that there is another reason. “It’s a small country, yet you have cities with rich history, culture and food, as well as a lot of beach and golfing options,” he said. “In five to 10 days, you can have a vacation or honeymoon that caters to all of your senses and desires.”
Hrubant pointed out that celebrities(名人) like Madonna and newlyweds Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have moved to Portugal, which has put the country more popular.
So you don’t know where to go for a vacation this summer? Now you can make a better choice.

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。
I have taught Spanish to thousands of students over my 36 years at Walpole High School in Walpole, Massachusetts. My students have ranged from the most academically gifted to the academically at-risk. There is one young man, however, who in the course of his high school career surpassed everyone’s expectations. His name is Vincent Lee.
Vincent entered my classroom as a nervous freshman on his first day of high school. He was enrolled in our Spanish course, a transition course for students who underperformed in Spanish I. In fact, Vincent had not had a lot of success in Spanish in middle school. His eighth grade teacher had described him as that “sad, introverted (内向的) boy in the last row who always kept his head down.”
Vincent often went to class unprepared and couldn’t see the point of learning another language. And yet there were other reasons to explain this lack of motivation. Vincent was dealing with a lot of turmoil (混乱) in his life: the recent divorce of his parents, moving from a house to an apartment and much greater responsibility at home for helping his mom take care of his younger twin brothers.
From the very start of my course, I sensed an attitude that separated Vincent from his peers. He entered class each day, took his seat quietly and took out what he needed for the lesson. At first, he was somewhat shy about answering questions in Spanish, but as the course progressed, I was able to engage him in conversations about his family, his interests and his passions.
With time going by, Vincent became more willing to volunteer and even ask me questions. He seemed fascinated by the fact that my parents were from Costa Rica and that I was fluent in both English and Spanish. When he once asked how long it takes to become fluent in another language, I explained that it takes many years and that the first sign that a person has adopted the language as his own is when one dreams in that language.

3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;

Clearly, Vincent was beginning to view himself as a real student.

By the end of the year, Vincent had achieved a high level of proficiency.
