27、 Anyone who has ever traveled with a 15-year-old knows that a teen can make or break the holiday for the whole family. Or, as a travel agent says, “If the teens are happy, everybody is happy.”
Teens are often the most excited travelers, but their interests—and plans—don't always agree with those of their younger siblings（兄弟姐妹） or parents. That means that while you might be happiest wandering around in the early morning to explore an archaeological site（古迹）, your teen would likely rather sleep in, have a huge breakfast and then hang out around noon.
Those realities make travel with teens a tricky（棘手的）—but not impossible—challenge. The key to success, according to the experts, lies in what you do long before you set foot on an airplane. For many families, the hardest may be finding a holiday time that's good for everyone. Working around school and after-school activities can be a difficult job. Be sure to sit down with everyone before settling on a date.
Beyond setting the date, you'll want to make youngsters a part of the planning from the start. Sit down and say, “What is the best time that we have ever had as a family? What was it that we did?” Then, ask them, if they could go anywhere in the world, where would they choose to go? You might find that they'd like nothing more than to sit on the local beach for a week. And even if that's not what you have in mind, you're supposed to get some ideas you can use in some way. Maybe there's a compromise（妥协）in there.
Once you decide on where to go, hand over some of the what-to-do decision-making to your teenager. Most teens are online now, and they're going to start lining up ideas of what to see and do. Teens are amazing at bringing in great suggestions.
【1】Why are teens the key to a family holiday?
A．They hate to travel with their family.
B．They have different opinions about holidays.
C．They know how to care for their family.
D．They follow their family's common timetable.
【2】What is the most difficult part in preparing for a family holiday?
A．Gathering the family together.
B．Buying tickets for the travel flights.
C．Booking hotels during the holiday.
D．Setting a perfect date for the holiday.
【3】What is suggested to parents on a family holiday?
A．Allowing their teens to make certain decisions.
B．Making all of the preparations by themselves.
C．Meeting their teens' wishes at all costs.
D．Disagreeing with any suggestions of their teens.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A．Teens and Travel
B．The Best Travelers
C．Children in Family
D．Compromises with Teens
28、 Each year thousands of U.S. families open their homes and hearts to student visitors from all over the world. In a homestay, students can observe, learn and experience a new lifestyle and culture, while practicing English skills in a home environment.
Successful homestay experiences can help to ease homesickness. Often students feel that they have found a second family who loves and cares for them. This experience can also help students make a smooth transition into an American university or enable them to reach a future career goal.
Hosts involve their student guests in day-to day family activities and also include them in social gatherings such as summertime barbecues, holiday celebrations, or trips to local attractions.
Homestay hosts will reflect the variety of the region in which they live. They may be single parents, retired couples, widows, or families with young children. They will come from different socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. What they will have in common is a desire to share their homes and their time with international students.
Usually, international visitors enjoy staying with hosts who have family members of similar ages or with similar interests. The homestay coordinator will consider a student's needs, interests and requests before matching the student with a host.
Living in a homestay will always require an adjustment period. There may be simple house rules or guidelines about Internet usage, laundry, television viewing, meal times, cleanliness, and money matters.
Universities that offer homestays programs set certain standards for hosts. For example, at the University of Delaware, all hosts living more than one mile from campus must provide students with transportation to and from campus every weekday. Hosts must also provide each student with a private, furnished room and access to a shared or private bathroom.
The homestay coordinators carefully screen host applicants to make sure they have a passion for hospitality and an interest in other cultures. Coordinators will also interview and visit applicants to determine the suitability of the living space and meet the family members. Regular meetings, phone calls, and emails keep the hosts up to date in order to keep high standards of operation within the homestays.
【1】What benefits do students who live in a homestay have?
A.They can experience a new lifestyle and culture. B.They can practice their English skills day and night.
C.They can be admitted to American universities. D.They can reach their future career goals easily.
【2】What do homestay hosts have in common?
A.A big house to hold holiday celebrations.
B.Enough space for having summertime barbecues.
C.A desire to share their homes and time with students.
D.Time for taking trips to local attractions with students.
【3】What will be taken into consideration before matching the students with the homestay?
A.The hosts' needs, interests and requests.
B.The students' needs, interests and requests.
C.The hosts' socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds.
D.The students and their family's education backgrounds.
【4】What are the last 3 paragraphs about?
A.Making house rules or guidelines. B.Setting certain standards for hosts.
C.Screening host applicants. D.Adjusting to the household.
29、A saw-whet owl (猫头鹰) is recovering at a wildlife refuge in New York state after it was discovered glued to the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. The bird was found by workers helping to transport the tree 170 miles from Oneonta to New York City.
“It’s just a story out of a movie,” said Ravensbeard Wildlife Center director Ellen Kalish, who is caring for the owl.
After the owl-now named Rockefeller-was dropped off with Ms Kalish and taken to the wildlife centre, her team began giving him fluids and “all the mice he will eat”. Rockefeller had not had anything to eat or drink during his three-day road trip. “It’s amazing he didn’t get hurt,” Ms Kalish said.
Rockefeller was taken to the vet on Wednesday night for a check-up and some X-rays, but Ms Kalish said he appears to be in great condition considering his adventurous week.
Diminutive as Rockefeller is, he is a full-grown adult. Saw-whet owls are the smallest owls in the US north-east, Ms Kalish said, typically growing to no more than 8.3 in (17-21cm) tall.
“They’re a very interesting species,” Ms Kalish said.They are “very” nocturnal, meaning they’re typically not seen unless someone is looking for them. Some migrate south for the winter, and some don’t migrate at all.
Once Rockefeller has a clean bill of health, Ms Kalish and the Ravensbeard team will release him back into the wild.” Our goal is to release any bird that can be released,” she said.
There are about two million saw-whet owls across the US, so Rockefeller will be OK if he doesn’t make it all the way back to Oneonta. “They find a new mate each year and go on with their lives,”she said.
With all the bad news of 2020, this little owl’s rescue “was a story that needed to be shared”, Ms Kalish said.
【1】Where was the owl stuck?
A．On a tree.
B．On a truck.
C．In New York City.
D．At the wildlife centre.
【2】What was the owl first offered after arriving at the wildlife centre?
A．A medical examination.
B．Food and drink.
C．Christmas gifts.
D．A three-day road trip.
【3】What does the underlined word “diminutive” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A．Weak.
B．Mature.
C．Interesting.
D．Tiny.
【4】What will be done to the owl if it is confirmed in good condition?
A．Be sent to a zoo.
B．Be kept at the center.
C．Be sent back to nature.
D．Be sent back to Oneonta.
