We've prepared several destinations selected from four Asian countries for your
adventure. Check them out:
Mongolia
Hardly anyone visits the country, and most people aren't aware of the amazing
potential it has. Head to Mongolia's best-known national park, Terelji. Here, you can
spend a night in a traditional tent 9 watch performances of archery （射箭）or enjoy
outdoor adventures from bird-watching to hiking and climbing or horseback riding
through grassy steppes and forest-covered mountains.
Indonesia
With the chance for world-class diving* to visit the world's biggest Buddhist
temple,and to see amazing wildlife, Indonesia is a must-visit* A must-visit for anyone
in Indonesia is Mount Ijen. It's in East Java, the highest point of which is home to
the most active volcano in the country, Mount Merapi. But the spot we recommend you visit is the Blue Fire Crater.
Malaysia
Want to achieve something great on your next Asian adventure? You should consider
climbing one of the highest mountains in Southeast Asia. Kinabalu National Park in
Malaysia is home to Mount Kinabalu, the mountain that around 40,000 people from all

China
In Shaanxi province of the country lies the world s most dangerous hiking trail（路
线）.It's up Mount Huashan, which is only 2,155m high. But the dangerous part is not
the top, but the narrow, wooden boards you have to climb up to reach the top. They're
fixed onto the mountainside in a way that doesn't look very secure. Nevertheless, many
adventurers try and take a hair-raising picture as they climb up.

This centuries-old town of stone homes could be any rural（农村的）village in Europe. It reached its maximum population at around the turn of the last century, and
since then it has slowly emptied until, in 2007, its public school finally shut its
doors.
“They say when a town loses its school» it loses its soul,”says the governor
of St. -Pierre-de-Frugie ? Gilbert Chabaud，who was elected to office the following
year. After the village's only restaurant closed too, Gilbert took up his post with
a central question, “What can we do to make it come back to life, to make people come
here?"
Gilbert, who himself left St. -Pierre-de-Frugie to work in the automobile industry
before retiring, found his answer in sustainability （可持续发展）.He opened up a
store for local producers to sell their vegetables which were grown without using any
artificial chemicals. He opened a community （社区）garden and ongoing ecological
workshops that encourage knowledge-sharing among the community.
He has a businessman's knowledge： he is making use of the idea shared across the
West* by many people looking for an alternative to the high-pace urban life. And after
the rapid urbanization of the 1950s and 1960s left many villages across Europe
abandoned or only partially used, a mini urban-to-rural flow is under way.
Since taking office, 40 new people have moved here 一 most of them from the cities?
bringing the population up to 400. Last year a new school opened in the village. Gilbert
is eyeing a bigger place for a new school.
Just a few months ago, lulia Timofticiuc and her partner Guillaume Bled were living
in Paris. They were concerned about global environment and at a more micro level about
what foods they were consuming and where they were coming from.“We wanted to live
lighter, be productive, and be autonomous,”Timofticiuc says. But they didn't just
want to go anywhere. They wanted to go where things were already happening. So they
chose St. -Pierre-de-Frugie.
24.What can we learn about the village St. Pierre-de-Frugie?
A.Its population began to rise at the turn of the 20th century.
B.Its public school was closed for lack of students.
C.It used to be a popular rural village in Europe.
D.It became completely empty in 2007.
25.What did Gilbert do to help his hometown?A.He quit his job to lead the village.
B.He sold green vegetables to local settlers.
C.He increased people's ecological awareness.
D.He encouraged people to share their harvest.
26.Why did lulia Timofticiuc choose St.-Pierre-de-Frugie?
A.It allows people to grow their own food.
B.It has done a lot to be eco-friendly.
C.It is less crowded.
D.It is autonomous.
27.Which section of a newspaper is the text probably taken from?
A.History. B. Culture.
C. Education. D. Society.

Luis Reynoso says he's always tried to get involved（牵涉）in his children's
education:attending meetings on school-improvement projects and providing classroom
food. But when his youngest daughter's school invited families to attend a nine-week
program Let's Change the Course ? organized by a leading education advocacy group here
? to learn about parenting and school participation, he realized his past efforts
barely scratched the surface.
Each weekly session touched on different parenting themes, like setting up a
special space at home for kids to do homework, like the importance of confidence. One
of the most helpful sessions, he recalls, focused on what a child should know
academically in each grade and how to talk to teachers about his daughter's performance.
“The workshops really woke me up,”says Mr. Reynoso.
Levels of parental participation in Mexican schools have long been low. Many people
commonly believe a child's education is the school s job to get involved. In some parts
of the country, a mother's or father's own lack of education can play into a sense
that they have nothing to contribute. And even in private schools? where there might
be more adults with fixed jobs9 participation is very rare, with some parents viewing
their tuition（学费）bill as their educational contribution. There are also cases where the schools themselves ignore the potential of parents in a child's education,
discouraging communication between families and schools.
But the importance of family participation is something many non-profit，education
advocates and recently the government are starting to home in on Mexico. Part of
Mexico's 2013 national education reform stresses the importance of parents playing
a more active role in their child's education, encouraging an increase in
parental-participation programs, including Let s Change the Course.
Susana Castellanos, headmaster of a school in Mexico City, says, “People are
recognizing you have to work together to create happy9 successful citizens. It's no
longer acceptable to set apart the roles of teacher vs. parent vs. school headmaster.”
28.What does Reynoso mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?
A.His previous efforts were in vain.
B.He missed the key point of participation.
C.His daughter disagreed with what he did.
D.He failed to catch the importance of school,
29.What did Reynoso find most beneficial about Let's Change the Course?
A.The necessity to set up a space for kids to do homework.
B.The academic requirements for kids in different periods.
C.The importance of knowing children's performance.
D.The ways to increase students' confidence.
30.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.How to contribute more to children's education.
B.How to know the levels of parental participation in Mexican schools.
C.Why schools failed to provide chances for parents to get involved,
D.Why parents played a less active role in school education in Mexico.
31.What influence did Mexico s education reform have?
A.The number of parental-participation programs rose.B.Many non-profit educational organizations were set up.
C.Teachers role in school education started to get increased.
D.Parents began to attach importance to children's education.
D
By analyzing the movement of the smile across a person's face, the software
developed by researchers at the University of Bradford can determine whether or not
the expression is true. The most significant movements detected by the software were
around the eyes, supporting popular theories that a true smile is one that can be seen
in a person's eyes.
“A smile is perhaps the most common of facial expressions and is a powerful way
of signaling positive emotions（情绪）”says Hassan Ugail, Professor of Visual
Computing at the University of Bradford ? who led the research.“Techniques for
analyzing human facial expressions have advanced a lot in recent years but
distinguishing between true and false smiles remains a challenge because humans are
not good at picking up the relevant messages.”
The software works by first mapping a person's face from within a video recording,
and identifying the mouth, cheeks and eyes of the subject. It then measures how they
move through the progress of the smile and calculates the differences in movement
between the video pieces showing true and false smiles. They found significant
differences in the way the subjects' mouths and cheeks moved when comparing the true
and the false expressions. The movements around the subjects' eyes, however» showed
the most striking difference, with true smiles producing at least 10 percent more
movement in these muscles（肌肉）.
“We use two main sets of muscles when we smile 一 the zygomaticus major, which
is responsible for the movements upwards of the mouth and the orbicularis oculi ? which
causes movements around our eyes,”explains Professor Ugail. In false smiles it is
often only the mouth muscles that move but, as humans we often don't spot the lack
of movement around the eyes.
He adds,“An objective way of analyzing whether or not a smile is true could help
us develop improved interactions（互动）between computers and humans. It could also
be important to scientists aiming to gain more understanding into human behavior and
emotion.”
32.Why is it hard for humans to recognize a false smile?A.Humans are good at hiding their smiles.
B.The relevant details are hard to catch for our eyes.
C.Humans often put on too many facial expressions.
D.Techniques for analyzing facial expressions are hard to develop.
33.What do the researchers find by the software?
A.People usually use two main sets of muscles when smiling.
B.True smiles produce more muscle movement around eyes.
C.Mouths and cheeks move the same for true and false smiles.
D.True smiles are a powerful way of signaling positive emotions.
34.What can we infer from Professor Hassan Ugail?
A.There are different sets of muscles on every human's face*
B.The software can improve humans' behavior and emotion.
C.Humans can spot the movement around the eyes in true smiles.
D.The interactions between computers and humans remain to be improved*
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.Eyes Can Smile
B.Smiles Can Show One's Personality
C.More Smiles, Longer lives
D.True Smiles, False Movements

Successful budgeting is a key to good financial health and it really isn't hard.
These steps will help create a realistic and successful budget:
List your expenses.Make a list of your fixed expenses such as rent payments and insurance
payments.Then make a list of your fluctuating（波动的）expenses ? such as expenses
for dining out, hobbies, and other expenses that don't have a consistent payment. 36
Separate your wants and needs.
37 This is especially important to successfully budgeting to pay off debts or
save money toward a specific goal. Any place where you see you're clearly wasting money?
get rid of it.
Consider buying budgeting software.
Part of the reason you do this is, of course? for guidance in successful budgeting.
38 Another part of it, though, is psychological. By investing（投资）in budgeting
software, you mean business when it comes to your budget and saving goals.
39
For the most successful budgeting possible, everyone in your family needs to know
and understand the budget. It won't do any good to create a budget if your husband
or wife isn't aware of it and continues to spend money in ways you haven't planned
for. 40 They need to know that there are limits to how much money they can spend.
So the earlier you get them started, the better.
A.Get your family on board.
B.Make sure your expectations are realistic.
C.This is not fundamental to successful budgeting.
D.And it's never too early for kids to develop money skills.
E.Check those lists you have made for costs you can cut or avoid.
F.Review old bank statements to help you calculate approximate figures for these
expenses.
G.It helps you understand the expenses categories and map out plans for successful
budgeting.

Dear Jack,
I am writing this letter to deliver my heartfelt thanks to you for your timely help during my visit at the
Sydney Opera House. I appreciate your guidance and the time you spent accompanying me,which was really
needed. Your care and enormous trust placed in me have made a huge difference in my then helpless
situation.
I can still remember that I was at a loss what to do next after arriving at the Sydney Opera House. Then
it was you who offered me valuable advice on how to explore it. With my invitation, you even gladly

conversation. Your point of view gave me a new prospective and I gained valuable insights, which made me
have a better knowledge of the opera house. Having someone with your knowledge and passion to talk with
really inspired me a lot.
Thank you again for your generous act .If I may be of help to you, please feel free to let me know.
Wish you all the best.
