21、Millions of A$50 banknotes in Australia have an embarrassing typographical error that was overlooked by the country’s central bank before they were printed and circulated.
The goof first became known on Thursday when a listener on radio outlet Triple M sent the station a magnified photo of the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) new A$50 note highlighting the word “responsibility“ misspelt as ”responsibilty” three times.
The A$50 currency is the most widely circulated in Australia and accounts for nearly half the total value of other banknotes in use, according to the RBA. But for now, around 46 million of the new notes are in use across the country.
The note came into circulation on Oct. 18, 2018 with new security features designed to deter counterfeiting and with tactile (触觉的) elements for the visually impaired .
But it has no intention of withdrawing or recalling the notes from circulation. The error will be corrected in the next print run, the RBA said.
An RBA spokeswoman said in an emailed statement to Reuters the Bank “is aware of it and the spelling will be corrected at the next print run.”
“This does not affect the legal tender status of the banknotes. We have reviewed our processes to remove the likelihood of such an error occurring in the future,” an RBA spokeswoman said.
It sports a head-shot of Edith Cowan, who served as the first woman elected to an Australian legislature from 1921 to 1924.
“ It is a great responsibility to be the only woman here, and I want to emphasize the necessity which exists for other women being here,” it says.
The Bank said in its latest annual report its note printing subsidiary delivered 227 million Australian banknotes in 2017/18, including around 184 million new series A$50 banknotes.
【1】What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A．To introduce Australian Central Bank’s annual report on A$50.
B．To recall the newly-printed A$50 banknotes due to printing error.
C．To report a printing mistake of A$50 banknotes in Australia.
D．To warn Australian people of the typographical error in A$50 banknotes.
【2】What is the underlined word “goof” in the second paragraph?
A．fault
B．circulation
C．damage
D．reproduction
【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．A listener on radio Triple M called the station to tell the error of new A$50
B．The new A$50 notes account for most of the total value of other banknotes in use in Australia.
C．The RBA will withdraw new A$50 notes and they will not be in circulation.
D．The RBA is aware of the typographical error and it will correct the printing error in the next print run.
【4】What can we infer from the passage?

B．The typographical error affects the legal status of the banknotes.
C．The new A$50 note with typographical error came into circulation on August,2018.
D．The new A$50 note has a head-shot of Mr. Cowan who was once an Australian legislature.
22、SEA LIFE LONDON AQUARIUM (水族馆) GUIDE
Have you ever wished you could swim to the deepest of the ocean to see some of the rarest sea creatures in the world? Or even take a trip to Antarctica and take photos of a family of penguins? Well, luckily for you, the SEA LIFE London Aquarium allows visitors to do that.
Opened in 1997, the SEA LIFE London Aquarium is the largest in London. Not only does it provide entertainment for visitors as they watch sharks, turtles, and tropical fish swim over, under and all around them, but it’s also one of the UK’s leading centers for sea life protection.
Highlights:
Pacific Display | Walking over a glass window and watching sharks swim under your feet |
Atlantic Zone | Observing turtles, snails, and octopuses |
Tidal Reach Zone | Taking photos of colorful jellyfish and pipefish |
Rockpools | Feeling starfish (海星) and the shell of a crab |
Special tips:
Make sure you take advantage of the discounted tickets available on any of our official websites.

23、Life Begins on Board Your Next Cruise(邮轮)
On a cruise, it’s all about choices. And never about effort or annoyance. Simply step aboard and float away, as your grand accommodation takes you from port to port, country to country. Maybe you haven’t been on a cruise yet. Let’s see what it might look like.
Rise and shine
Everyone is a morning person on a cruise. Wake up to find yourself floating joyfully somewhere out on the horizon, between vast blue skies and rolling oceans. You’ve travelled far through the night, and each morning begins with a completely new and foreign destination calling from outside your window. What a way to start your day!
Breakfast of champions
Before the morning truly begins, spend some time relaxing on the top floor with a steaming cup of coffee and warm French pastries, taking in the unbelievable views and the fresh sea air. Or head to one of the many restaurants on the ground floor to find a rich meal fit for a king, then walk to the front of the ship and have some fresh fruit and American pancakes in the open-air market.
Ease into your day
Energize your morning with a yoga class, strengthening your body on the open-air board, palms stretched to the sea. Hit the gym for a refreshing workout or take a swim that will set you up for the day. If you are not so sporty, simply spend your morning sitting by the pool reading a book, perhaps losing yourself in the history, culture and legends of your next port of call.

24、 We moved into a beautiful twostory old house.The house was built in 1956. It was repaired in 2003.
At first, really small things began to happen. They didn’t make me believe that something was wrong, but as time went on, things started becoming stranger and stranger. Early something was missing, and later on it would be found somewhere else. I just thought I had forgotten where I put it, or perhaps my daughter was playing around with things.

Then things that I couldn’t explain started happening. It was last November and I was at home alone cleaning the house. When I was sweeping the kitchen floor, I felt a very cold wind blowing my hair. I thought the kitchen window must have been opened, but when I checked it, it was closed. The windows were new, and there was no way any cold air came in.
