Flights often mean risky security, long layovers and unexpected delays, which can sometimes make for unpleasant travel experiences. Still, your airport journey doesn’t always have to be terrible. Here are some cool airports that will make you forget about all your travel baggage:
Hamad International Airport, Qatar
This $ 16-billion airport screams luxury. It features a 25-metre-long swimming pool. The airport is also equipped with quiet rooms, ideal for passengers seeking a pre-flight snooze. There is a giant dinosaur robot and a 23-foot-tall Urs Fischer sculpture of a yellow teddy bear.
Changi Airport, Singapore
If you didn’t get enough shopping done during your trip, then Changi Airport is the perfect place for you. There are over 300 retail stores available and two movies theatres — free of charge — for you to take advantage of. There’s also a fascinating butterfly garden. Here, you can find a rainforest-themed garden with about 1,000 butterflies surrounded by flowering plants and a six-metre grotto waterfall.
Hong Kong International Airport, Hong Kong
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to fly a plane? If you have, then head over to the
Aviation Discovery Centre and hop on the plane cabin simulator. This ride allows passengers to see what it’s like to actually fly a plane. Pretty cool if you’re about to board a real flight in a couple of hours. This airport is also home to an IMAX theatre and an indoor, multimedia golf course.
Helsinki Airport, Finland
If you have an appreciation for art, then you’ll love your layover in Helsinki. It’s the MoMa of airports, complete with a 24-hour art gallery and aviation museum. There are paintings and art installations all over the building. Passengers can also relax between flights in a sleeping pod. an ergonomic seat/bed complete with a pull-up cover to keep out light and noise, storage for your carry-on under the seat, and a power outlet for your phone or laptop.

I look around and can’t recognize where I am. It seems familiar but distant. I see my friends gather by a stage where music is playing and I run over. As I begin running towards them, they become further and further away. I keep calling them, but no one hears me. I start hearing a distant alarm-like sound and I am transported away. I woke up in a daze sitting in my bed.
“Oh, it was only a dream,” I said to myself. I have always had vivid and intense dreams. It feels like I haven't even slept because I have been living out my dreams during my sleep.
Today, dreaming is being studied even more than ever. Some say that dreams are how your receptors make sense of random thoughts while you sleep. Some say that you can’t dream of a face you have never seen before, so everyone you see in your dreams you have at least laid eyes on at one time or another.
Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing. A lot of people say that they have dreams about being chased.
A common interpretation of the “being chased” dream is that you are feeling threatened. Some dream interpretation websites say you should try to reflect on what or who is chasing you to get a better idea of what is making you feel this way.
Another dream that is often experienced is flying. This dream has a much more positive interpretation, which is that you are feeling free or have broken out of a bad situation such as a relationship turned sour or a job you hate.
Unfortunately, you may forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within 10 minutes, you usually forget 90 percent of it.
Dreamologists, people who devote time to the study and interpretation of dreams, suggest if you want to try to remember and study your dreams you should keep a journal beside your bed and write down what you dreamt as soon as you wake up so you can reflect on it later.
24. What does the author think of his dreams?
A. They have influenced his sleep.
B. They reproduce his real life scene.
C. They are just his random thoughts.
D. They are unbelievable and ridiculous.
25. In which situation do dreams of “being chased” probably occur?
A. You are feeling free.
B. You just quit a job you hate.
C. You lack the sense of security.
D. Your friends keep you at a distance.
26. Why should we keep a journal beside our bed?
A. To reflect on our dreams.
B. To avoid forgetting our dreams.
C. To help us sleep well without dreams.
D. To help us get out of the tense dreams.
27. Where is the passage probably taken from?
A. A news report.
B. A fiction book.
C. An ad website.
D. A science newspaper.
C
Chinese New Year has been welcomed in Britain with its biggest ever program of events and
celebrations.
From London’s Trafalgar Square to major cities across Britain, tens of thousands of British people have joined Chinese communities to celebrate the arrival of the Year of the Rooster.
In Manchester there was a Dragon Parade, led by a spectacular 54-meter long dragon, ending is Chinatown where there was traditional Chinese entertainment, more than 6,000 lanterns, street food villages and a fireworks show. Celebrations also took place in Liverpool. Birmingham, Lake District, Durham, Edinburgh. Leeds and Newcastle.
A cademic Dr. Wu Kegang said that the Chinese New Year event in Britain “is now bigger than ever and it is growing every year.”
When Wu arrived in Britain 26 years ago from Guangdong, south China, the first thing he noticed was that Chinese New Year was celebrated mainly in towns and cities with big Chinese communities. “You would go to London Chinatown and join your countrymen to celebrate, or to Chinatowns in places like Liverpool and Manchester for what were events almost exclusively held for Chinese people,” Wu recalled.
“Now it is so different, and we are seeing local communities all over the country taking part alongside their own Chinese populations,” he said. “It is clear to me that the celebrations will continue to grow in Britain. Chinese New Year has earned its place in the calendar of events in Britain, and is here to stay.”
28. Where did the Dragon Parade take place this year?
A. London.
B. Manchester.
C. Birmingham.
D. Newcastle.
29. When Dr. Wu arrived in Britain 26 years ago, Chinese New Year was .
A. very popular all around Britain
B. celebrated mainly by Chinese communities
C. only celebrated in London, Liverpool and Manchester
D. enjoyed by local communities alongside Chinese populations
30. According to Dr. Wu, how will Chinese New Year develop in the next few years?
A. Grow more popular.
B. Turn into an official holiday.
C. Get less remembered.
D. Become more important than Christmas.
31. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. How British celebrate Chinese New Year.
B. More and more British learn about Chinese culture.
C. Chinese New Year has earned its popularity in Britain.
D. Chinese communities celebrate New Year in Britain in various ways.
D
I READ mostly fiction before I was introduced to CaMalcolm Gladwell's work.
In his TED talk called "Choice, Happiness, and Spaghetti Sauce (意大利面酱)",he used the examples of Pepsi and spaghetti sauce to argue that giving people choices makes them happy. If I had only heard his conclusion statement and missed the evidence that he employed ,I would have been wondering how he could argue such an interesting point. But he structured his argument like a detective story, with each puzzle piece contributing to the conclusion.
Fascinated,I borrowed his book Outliers: The Story of Success from the library. Each chapter had its own story and argument,and all of the arguments were about factors that contributed to an individual' s success in the world.
The depth of his research was amazing. In the first chapter,he analyzed the reasons behind the crash of Korean Air Flight 801 in 1997,which killed more than 220 people. The disaster took place partly because the co-pilot didn't point out the mistakes that the pilot was making. In South Korea,it' s disrespectful to disagree with higher ups even if they are doing something wrong.
Perhaps most interesting of all,Gladwell explained why Asians are so good at math. He said Asians get an advantage when they learn how to count because their language has fewer syllables (音节) and makes numbers easier to remember.
But Gladwell is mostly interested in answering my favorite question,"Why?” And that’s exactly why I love his works. After reading Outliers: The Story of Success and other books like it,I found myself questioning my commonly-accepted beliefs much more often. After all,why should we take anything for granted?
32. Why does the author write this article?
A. To promote some of Gladwell’s books.
B. To introduce Gladwell and his books.
C. To show how Gladwell did research for his books.
D. To explain why he enjoys Gladwell’s books.
33. How did the author feel about Gladwell’s TED talk?
A. Surprising but persuasive.
B. Refreshing but puzzling.
C. Interesting but doubtful
D. Funny but conclusive.
34. What can we know from the passage?
A. Eating spaghetti sauce can make you happy.
B. Carelessness caused the Korean air crash in 1997.
C. Fewer syllables give Asians an advantage in learning math.
D. The Story of Success is about Gladwell’s personal success.
35. What really makes the author fall in love with Gladwell’s works?
A. His strong arguments.
B. His amazing research.
C. His detective-like stories.
D. His questioning spirit.

The sun was just slowly come up over the mountains today as I took my dogs for its morning walk. I smiled as I watched the clouds gradually turn to white and gold. The air was cool and I wore a big smile in my face. Even though there weren’t leaf on the trees, but I could still hear birds singing songs of spring.
