The islands of Malta and Gozo are brilliant for a family holiday, packed with fun places to visit whatever your children’s ages. The islands’ small size means everywhere is within easy reach.
Sandy beaches and swimming spots
One of Malta’s best beaches for families is soft-sanded, sheltered Golden Bay. Older children can try activities such as stand-up paddleboarding, sailing or windsurfing, while the gentle slope of the beach makes it easy for younger kids to safely paddle in the sea.
Eating out
Children are welcome at most restaurants, though more upmarket places often only accept
older kids. There are often kids’ menus that tend to offer pizza, but you can always ask for a half portion (一份) of a starter dish (portions are huge in Maltese restaurants). With a wide range of cuisines on offer, children are bound to find something they’ll like, Maltese food is strongly influenced by Italian cuisine, so there’s pizza and pasta galore, and some kids will love the national dish-fried rabbit
Accommodation
Try to schedule at least a few days on Gozo as there are lots of self-catering farmhouses with pools to rent and it’s even easier to get around than Malta. Smaller hotels in Valletta usually only accept older children.
Transport and other tips
The easiest way to get around Malta and Gozo is to drive, but the local bus service is reliable, easy to use, and fairly inexpensive. Buses are frequent between major towns, but only roughly hourly to and from smaller places. Ferries run between Malta and Gozo, and you can take tourist boats over to Comino.
2l. What can younger kids do on the islands of Malta and Gozo?
A. Try windsurfing. B. Experience paddling.
C. Have dinner at all restaurants. D. Live in smaller hotels in Valletta.
22. What do we know about Maltese food?
A. It has much to do with Italian cuisine.
B. Children can always eat up a portion of dish.
C. Fried rabbit is the most popular among visitors.
D. Pizza is only offered to kids in Maltese restaurants.
23. What transportation may be the best choice for visitors in Malta and Gozo?
A. Tourist boats. B. Ferries.
C. Sailing boats. D. Motor vehicles.
B
I got a call that an opossum (负鼠) was in trouble on the Wantagh State Parkway. The initial report had come around noon on a recent Saturday via a call to the hotline of Volunteers for Wildlife, an organization where I am a board member. I got to the spot first and,no surprise, no opossum. People unaccustomed to seeing nocturnal animals (夜行动物) during the day often think
that the animals are in trouble. Although the callers are well-intentioned, sometimes the animal is neither in trouble nor a threat.
When DiGiacomo, a trooper, drove up, he said the opossum had been spotted farther south and we proceeded south on the grass while steady traffic flew by in the other direction!
Then I finally saw the grayish opossum sitting precariously at the top of the highway divider, obviously frightened and only a few feet from certain death on each side. The animal was frozen in place, shaking. Its dark eyes looked straight down.
DiGiacomo turned on his car’s flashing lights, drove south a few hundred yards farther on the grass-and very carefully turned into the oncoming traffic, which came to a stop behind him. Then he drove slowly ahead, with the cars at a crawl behind him.
I grabbed my net and a towel, put on my Kevlar gloves and slowly approached my frightened creature. I dropped the net over him, threw a towel over that to make sure the animal stayed on my side of the highway divider, and then grabbed it.
The opossum protested with a few attempts to bite my hand, but I imagined it was relieved to get off that divider. I placed it on the road to check for any injury, but as soon as I lifted the net, the opossum was off like a shot toward the roadside, heading for the safety of the trees.
It was a shared moment of joy. I followed the opossum as it disappeared into the woods and smiled.
24. What can we learn about the calls to the hotline?
A. They usually offer no help. B. They usually cause trouble.
C. They often give volunteers a surprise. D. They sometimes give false information.
25. What situation was the opossum in when the author spotted it?
A. It was extremely weak. B. It was in great danger.
C. It got injured in the eye. D. It was shaking with anger.
26. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. The net. B. The gloves.
C. The opossum. D. The divider.
27. Where did the opossum run finally?
A. On the grass. B. Onto the divider.
C. Into the woods. D. Toward the roadside.
C
One night in 1966, Michael Chapman rushed into a folk-music club in Cornwall, England to get out of the rain, and soon found himself onstage playing the guitar.
“They offered me a job to play for the rest of the summer. And I’ve been playing ever since,” Chapman says. “I’ve told that story so many times, but it’s absolutely true. If it hadn’t been raining that night, I wouldn’t be talking to you.”
The British guitar player has spent the 50 years since then on the road. He released some praised albums in the 1970s, but his health went downhill in the 80s and 90s. Like a lot of British artists in the 1960s, Chapman taught himself to play the guitar by listening to American jazz and blues records.
Chapman actually taught photography, but quit when he was 26 to play music full time. When he was starting out, he was often compared to other British acoustic (原声的) guitar heroes of the time, like John Martyn and Bert Jansch.
“The fascinating thing about Michael Chapman is that he doesn’t fit in with those guys of his generation,” says Andrew Male, a music journalist. “He’s always been an outsider. He never moved to London.”
And while he never became part of the London music scene, Chapman was noticed by those musicians. “The 70s caught up with him in the 80s,” Male says. “He had a huge heart attack at the end of the 80s that nearly finished him off. When he made his way back into the world in the early 90s, people had forgotten about him.”
But not everyone. A younger generation of musicians in America, including Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth and a younger singer and guitarist named Steve Gunn, recently rediscovered Chapman.
“We wanted to capture Michael’s voice and character where he is now. You know, it’s a little road-weary, but he still has it,” Gunn says. “For me, it was really important to get that right.” “He’s the right old musician for present times,” Male says. “I think the music he makes seems quite in tune with where we’re at.”
28. Which can best describe Michael Chapman’s first involvement in music?
A. Untrue. B. Accidental. C. Unfortunate. D.
Reasonable.
29. What can we learn about the British guitarist John Martyn from the text?
A. He used to teach photography full time.
B. He can not get along well with other musicians.
C. He may be very familiar with American jazz and blues.
D. He may be one of the best guitar players in the early 90s.
30. Why did Michael Chapman quit his music career once?
A. He lost his special voice.
B. He suffered from a severe heart attack.
C. He got tired of competing with others.
D. He was almost forgotten by everyone.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. The Rise and Fall of Guitar Music
B. The Sad Story of a Guitar Musician
C. A New Generation Helps an Old Guitar Musician
D. A Guitar Musician’s Back with the Help of a New Generation
D
If you’re DIY-minded, you can build your own solar power system. In some cases, you can even build your own solar panels (太阳能电池板), although the amount that you can effectively DIY home solar depends on how much you want to power. Making your own solar panel is a time-consuming process and requires some electrical skills. However, it can also be very rewarding—learning to build your own panel is a great way to understand how solar electricity is generated (产生).
Before you can build your own solar panels, you first need to understand how solar cells generate electricity. Once you’ve bought individual solar cells (they can be purchased online), the basic process for building your own solar panel goes like this: Prepare the backing (底板) for your panel. Many DIY solar panel builders prefer to use a wooden board as the base for their solar cell. You’ll need to drill holes in the board so that the wires for each cell can pass through. Wire your solar cells together. This requires some experience with electrical work. Use a soldering iron (烙铁) to attach wire to the solar cells and then link each of the cells together. Attach cells to your
backing. If possible, attach each solar cell to the backing individually. This makes it easier to replace a single cell in the event that becomes damaged or is not operating properly.
At this point you have a functional solar panel that can produce electricity when the sun shines. However, a solar panel by itself is not useful. If you are trying to generate electricity to power devices in your home, you need to pair your panel with an inverter (换流器) that will turn direct current (DC) power from the sun into the alternating current (AC) power used in most modem electronic devices.
32. What does the author think of building DIY solar panel in the first paragraph?
A. It is easy. B. It is necessary.
C. It is common. D. It is worthwhile.
33. What’s the first step of building your own solar panels?
A. Master the advanced knowledge of management.
B. Buy individual solar cells.
C. Prepare the backing for your panel.
D. Drill holes in the wooden board.
34. Why are solar cells connected to the wooden board separately?
A. To produce more power.
B. To substitute damaged cells easily.
C. To attach cells to the backing tightly.
D. To pass through the wooden board easily.
35. What can be inferred from the text?
A. People with electrical skills have advantages over those without in DIY solar panels,
B. A functional solar panel can give power to your home devices directly.
C. How to pair an inverter depends on how much you want to power.
D. A wooden board is a must for your own solar panels.

Before the summer of 2016, I had always been afraid of heights. For most of my life, even the idea of climbing a mountain would give me butterflies in my stomach. 36
On my birthday that year, when my mother and I first made the decision to climb Mt. Ranier in August, my knees actually shook with anxiety. However, it was finally time for our first outdoor climbing practice and the butterflies in my stomach had certainly multiplied. “ 37 Try to enjoy the feeling and turn the anxiety into hope.” She was always full of kind words, but could I apply her wisdom in time for the day of our final climb?
38 Though it was August, the skies were gray on the southernmost face of the mountain. Near the halfway point, I lost my footing and fell backwards down the trail, slightly twisting my ankle. Though I was sore, I kept gong for another mile or so, but I had to give up before we reached our intended target.
39 However, I was able to recover in time for our planned summit climb. I had, over time. gained the physical and emotional strength to recover quickly and come through adversity even stronger. The breathtaking views along our climb no longer distracted me with fear but forced me to follow through with my goal. Unluckily, I had not overcome my fear of heights. 40
A. Don’t let the butterflies get the best of you.
B. Eventually, I was not afraid of heights at all..
C. As it turned out, our practice hike proved challenging.
D. I didn’t succeed on our first practice and suffered slight injury.
E. The breathtaking views made me relaxed and I went smoothly throughout the hike.
F. It was in that summer that I turned 16 and achieved something that deeply influenced my life.
G. However, I had made peace with it to the point where I could remain inspired by my own achievements.

(Text 3)

If you visit America, you should be aware of some of the American customs and habits. All restaurants in America accept cash for payment, and most also accept credit cards. You will seldom find a restaurant that accepts checks. It is common to have to wait for a table in a popular restaurant. There are many popular restaurants that do not accept bookings, or will only accept bookings for large parties, for example, six or more people. Many restaurants in America have a license to serve alcohol. The drinking age in America is 21.
Tipping is another common custom. American restaurants do not add a service charge to the bill. Therefore, it is expected that the customer will leave a tip for the server. The common practice is to leave a tip that is equal to 15% of the total bill for acceptable service, and about 20% for superior service. Smoking in America is not always considered to be a good social habit. Smoking in public is not as common in America as in many other countries. Generally, Americans smoke less than Europeans and much less than Asians. It is a fact that smoking is becoming less and less socially acceptable. Smoking is forbidden in many places. The legal smoking age in America is 18.
