26、 One of the best aspects of travel is discovery. Whether you’re immersing yourself in a brand new culture or wandering (闲逛) the streets of a foreign city, you’re finding new things to see and experience. Part of that discovery is in what you learn about yourself. 【1】.
Here are some of those ways:
【2】
Travel means new foods, cultures and places to explore. Try speaking that new language or eat a new kind of food you never knew existed. When you’re thrown outside of your normal circumstances (环境), you’ll discover more about who you are and what you’re like.
The chance to reinvent yourself
At home, people can see you a certain way and pigeonhole (主观划分某人为) you into a personality type that can be hard to escape. 【3】. You’re free to break away from how people normally see you and reinvent yourself.
【4】
You’ve just traveled across a country, tried a new language and haggled (讨价还价) over prices in a market. They’re all things you didn’t know you could do before, but you dug up a new-found sense of adventure and somehow made it work. With travel, comes challenges. And the more challenges you take on, the more sure of yourself you become.
Planning and organizing skills
What’s the best route to take so I see all the major attractions? What’s the best way to get to the next city and back so I don’t miss my flight? How should I organize my itinerary (行程)? 【5】.
You have to organize your trip so that you have a place to stay and transportation to and from certain destinations.
A.Building confidence
B.Travel is about making choices
C.Forcing you out of your comfort zone
D.Trips don’t always go according to plan
E.Having time to reflect on your life
F.Travel can give you a chance to explore other sides of your personality
G.Like most experiences, travel can change you in ways you might never have expected

28、In south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autochthonous Region, an area renowned for(因……而闻名) its history of musical folklore(民俗), local residents(民众) have found a unique way to spread knowledge regarding(关于) AIDS prevention.
“We asked eight local singers to write and record songs about the disease. We think this is an effective way for local people to acquire AIDS knowledge,” said 55-year-old Huang Zhanghui, a resident of the village of Shantun. He said that the songs are played through loudspeakers in his village every evening.
The songwriting campaign(活动) has been effective because folk songs are a traditional art form in the region, making them more readily understandable and acceptable for local residents, Huang said.
Guangxi has been one of the hardest-hit areas in China in terms of the number of AIDS infections discovered there, ranking only after central China’s Henan Province.
Bama County, which administers(管理) Shantun, is known for the longevity of its residents. Nearly 2,500 of its residents are more than 80 years old, and another 81 have celebrated their 100th birthdays.
“We will not let AIDS threaten this tradition,” Huang said.
Huang was selected to be the head of the village’s AIDS prevention office just two months ago. In addition to the creation of folk songs, the office spreads AIDS prevention knowledge through text messages and publicly screened films.
“We have been making progress with our anti-AIDS campaign. Nearly all of our villagers know how AIDS is transmitted(传播) and how to prevent it,” he said.
Lu Meirong, 33, joined a local women’s anti-AIDS group in June.
“I used to flush(脸红) at the simple mention of sexual(性感) topics, ” she said. However, she says that she is now comfortably reminding her husband and other relatives to stay away from sex workers.
Wei Kaizhong, head of the health bureau(局) of the city of Hechi, believes that the mode(方式/风格) of peer educations on HIV/ AIDS prevention is necessary among villagers.
Nearly two-thirds of China’s AIDS carriers are believed to be living in rural areas. Rural residents have a significantly higher risk of contracting(感染) the disease than urban residents.
【1】Which kind of songs are the residents better at?
A.Popular songs.
B.Folk songs.
C.Classical songs.
D.Country songs.
【2】The important thing for local residents to prevent AIDS is ________.
A.taking enough exercise
B.going abroad for further education
C.writing songs about AIDS knowledge
D.communicating with AIDS patients
【3】What can be inferred(推断) according to the passage?
A.AIDS has a growing trend(趋势) of development in China.
B.Villagers turn to music to prevent spread of AIDS.
C.The people in Guangxi live a poor and hard life.
D.No measures in the world can cure AIDS disease.
【4】The residents spread AIDS prevention in the following statements EXCEPT ________.
A.text messages
B.creation of folk songs
C.publicly screened films
D.website information
【5】Which of the following statements is mentioned in the passage?
A.The people in urban areas are infected with AIDS more easily
B.It’s necessary to have the mode of peer education on AIDS prevention.
C.The residents infected AIDS in Henan are less than those in Guanxi.
D.Lu Meirong was infected(传染) with AIDS through her husband.
29、Perhaps you’ve heard the old saying “curiosity killed the cat.” It’s a phrase that’s often used to warn people—especially children—not to ask too many questions. 【1】 In fact, research has shown that curiosity is just as important as intelligence in determining how well students do in school.
Curiosity can also lead us to make unexpected discoveries, bring excitement into our lives, and open up new possibilities. 【2】 For example, one day in 1831, Michael Faraday was playing around with a coil(线圈) and a magnet(磁铁) when he suddenly saw how he could produce an electrical current. At first, it wasn’t clear what use this would have, but it actually made electricity available for use in technology, and so changed the world.
【3】On one level, this is because technology has become so advanced that many of us are unable to think too deeply about how exactly things work anymore. While it may be possible for a curious teenager to take a toaster apart and get some sense of how it works, how much do you understand about what happens when you type a website address into a browser? Where does your grasp of technology end and the magic begin for you?
In addition to this, there’s the fact that we all now connect so deeply with technology, particularly with our phones. The more we stare at our screens, the less we talk to other people directly. 【4】Then we feel we know enough about a person not to need to engage further with them.
The final—and perhaps most worrying—way in which technology stops us from asking more has to do with algorithms, the processes followed by computers. As we increasingly get our news via social media, algorithms find out what we like and push more of the same back to us. 【5】Perhaps the real key to developing curiosity in the 21st century, then, is to rely less on the tech tools of our age.
A.It is still not known why learning gives us such pleasure.
B.We are always encouraged to challenge our pre-existing beliefs.
C.Yet it’s widely agreed that curiosity actually makes learning more effective.
D.All too often we accept the images of people that social media provides us with.
E.However, curiosity is currently under the biggest threat, coming from technology.
F.In science, basic curiosity-driven research can have unexpected important benefits.
G.That means we end up inside our own little bubbles, no longer coming across new ideas.

31、课文内容填空
Middle English is the name 【1】(give) to the English used from around the 12th to the 15th centuries. Many things played a part in the 【2】(develop) of this new type of English. The most important 【3】(贡献) was from the Normans, a 【4】 (French speak) people who【5】 (打败) England and took control of the country in 1066. 【6】, the Norman Conquest did not affect English as much as the Angles and the Saxons’ victory about 600 years earlier, which led to Old English 【7】 (replace) Celtic. Even though the Normans spoke French for the e【8】 250 years they ruled England, French did not replace English 【9】 the first language. On the other hand, the English language did borrow many words from French. This resulted in even more words with similar meanings, such as answer (from Old English) and reply (from Old French). It is interesting to learn 【10】 the words for animals and meat developed.
