26、 If you’re looking at Mercer’s top 20 livable cities as inspiration for your holiday, you would miss out many great places. According to Mercer’s latest Quality of Living Survey, Moscow ranks 167 and Beijing only 119, yet both provide visitors great pleasures. Meanwhile high-ranked cities such as Kobe or Seattle may be easy places to live in, but offer little excitement to tourists.
Actually, many of the world’s most livable cities are a little dull. The world isn’t dashing to visit Canberra or Montreal. In fact, none of the world’s 10 most visited cities appear in Mercer’s top 20. Obviously, considerations for enjoyable holiday hotspots are different from those that make cities comfortable places to live in.
This should be no surprise, since the various livability lists aren’t concerned with tourists or even native people. Mercer, for example, is a Britain-based consulting company whose lists provide multinationals with information about where to start their businesses. “The success of international business is mainly influenced by necessary things such as ease of travel, communication, personal safety and good public services,” says Slagin Parakatil, who leads Mercer’s research. “In short, Mercer’s rating is mainly determined by whether the cities are attractive to businesses, and have good schools, hospitals and nice offices.”
Still, Mercer’s Quality of Living Survey has its uses for tourists, since it also looks at natural and cultural environments and entertainments. It ranks public transport and infrastructure (基础设施) particularly high, a consideration shared by the World Economic Forum in reports on tourism and travel competitiveness. This includes hotels, rental-cars and even ATM numbers, all of which make a place friendly to businesses and visitors.
【1】Which city is attractive to tourists according to the text?
A.Canberra. B.Montreal.
C.Moscow. D.Kobe.
【2】What does the underlined word “multinationals” in paragraph3 refer to?
A.Foreign tourists. B.International companies.
C.Native businessmen. D.Consulting organizations.
【3】What is important to both businesses and tourists?
A.Big banks. B.Good hospitals
C.Nice schools. D.Easy public transport.
【4】What does the author say about Mercer’s Quality of Living Survey?
A.It has little use for tourists and businessmen.
B.It may not be the best guidance for tourists.
C.It ranks business environments too high.
D.Businesses and tourists can rely on it for plans.

28、We’re willing to bet you know at least one kid who loves Peppa Pig. The British TV show has been attracting youthful audiences around the world for almost two decades and has even created a generation of American kids with fake British accents. Well, all those millions of young Peppa fans will soon have their own theme park in the United States that they can visit with their parents. Moving over Disney World Peppa Pig is headed to Florida.
The new theme park is slated to open in Orlando, Florida in 2022 and will feature rides, attractions, a water play area and live shows all popular with preschool-age children and their families. Kids will have the opportunity to meet Peppa, George, Mummy Pig, Daddy Pig and the rest of the animal group as they explore the adorable world that looks like it’s been dropped right out of TV and into central Florida.
Peppa fans will love rides such as Grandad Dog’s Pirate Boat Ride, where the little piggies can hop aboard and set sail for Pirate Island, and Peppa Pig’s Balloon Ride, where they get to fly high above the park in one of Miss Rabbit’s hot air balloons. Other rides feature characters like Grampy Rabbit and Mr. Bull.
The park will also feature two play zones: A splash pad where kids can mimic jumping in muddy puddles filled with fountains, slides and interactive water features perfect for hot Florida summers and Pirate Island where everyone in the family can look for buried treasure or build sand castles with Danny Dog. Are you looking for something adults will love too? Check out the classic boardwalk with free arcade games. When it’s time for a break, head to the cinema, where kids can watch their favorite episodes of Peppa Pig in a cool dark theatre.
Yearly passes are already available for the new park for $75. The opening day is still to be announced, but we’re guessing there are enough Peppa Pig episodes to keep you and the kids occupied until next year.

29、I was putting on my boots just now in what the novelists call “a brown study.” There was no urgent reason for putting on my boots. I was not going out, and my slippers were much more comfortable. But something had to be done. I wanted a subject for an article. Now if you are accustomed to writing articles for a living, you will know that sometimes the difficulty is not writing the article, but choosing a subject. It is not poverty you suffer from, but an embarrassment of riches.
But what has this to do with putting on my boots? It is a reasonable question and I will tell you. For an hour I had paced my room in my slippers in search of a subject. I had looked out of the window over the sunlit valley, and watched the smoke of a distant train disappearing towards the west. I had sharpened every pencil I had on me with great care. But the more I sharpened my pencils, the more anxious I grew about the theme for an article.
It was at this moment that I remembered my boots. The act of bending my body changed the current of the blood. You saw things in a new light. So I fetched my boots and sat down to put them on.
The thing worked like a charm. For in my preoccupied condition I picked up my right boot first. Then mechanically I put it down and seized the left boot. And then the fact flashed on me that all my life I had been putting on my left boot first. If you had asked me five minutes before which boot I put on first, I should have said that there was no first about it; yet now I found I was in a habit so fixed that the attempt to put on my right boot first affected me. The thing couldn’t be done. And then came into my mind that fascinating book of Samuel Butler’s on Life and Habit. Yes, certainly, here was a subject that would “go.” I took out a pencil, seized some writing paper, and sat down to write on “The Force of Habit.”
【1】By “It is not poverty you suffer from, but an embarrassment of riches.” in paragraph 1, the author means _____.
A．some subjects are too complicated or embarrassing to write on
B．poverty is no longer a problem nowadays, but embarrassment is
C．poor people don’t encounter as many embarrassments as the rich
D．there’re so many subjects that it’s hard to decide which to choose
【2】Why did the author sharpen his pencils with great care?
A．To help himself promote thinking.
B．To draw what he saw out of the window.
C．To write his article more smoothly.
D．To relieve himself of anxiety about writing.
【3】Putting on the boots helped the author _____.
A．get rid of his fixed habit
B．lower his blood pressure
C．see things from a new angle
D．free his preoccupied mind
【4】The passage is mainly about the author’s _____.
A．personal attitude towards habits
B．daily routines as a professional writer
C．writing process of a special article
D．decision making on the theme for an article
30、I was in France to visit my grandmother. To make her know how _________ she was, I cooked for her, and read her stories. I gave her a foot massage (按摩), which I was _________ to discover that was her first ever!

It was Sunday, so my __________ was that she hadn’t checked her mailbox and hadn’t yet driven her car!
As I was sitting on the plane back to the United States, I __________ that one of my friends’ guiding principles is to __________ like his family.
