10、re the kind of tourist who likes to visit places with outstanding landscapes and multicultural cities，then Asia is the place to go. Take a cruise (巡游) to Asia and you will not be disappointed.The Finest Asian Cruise ExplorationsTourists who want to visit several Asian countries understand that cruis

11、ing there is the best alternative. You can decide to take a two-week cruise, starting from Sri Lanka to Thailand. Theres also a three-week cruise that starts off in China all the way to Japan. A most popular voyage is one that starts from Hong Kong to Singapore.The Best Time to TravelWhen touring As

12、ia, its best to understand that different cruise lines have different travelling timelines. You can be caught in the rain during your tour (October to December in Malaysia and December to February in Indonesia). Most cruises take place from December to the end of March.Booking Cruise-ship ToursGiven

13、 that youll probably be taking long flights to get to South Asia and the Far East，thebudget will be large, especially if you are visiting as a family. In addition, many people tour this region, so it would be best if you book early when the prices are more appealing.ActivitiesThere are so many ports

14、 in Asia and this might bring a challenge if you want to get somewhere in time. Make sure you plan your day-trips in advance and follow the cruise line tours to avoid missing the boats.

17、iversity of the Witwatersrand in South Africa in February, her professor asked her and her classmates what impresses them most when it comes to Africa.Unexpectedly, Huang, 31, found that words like “poverty” and “safari” negative words that were often associated with the continent in media reports w

18、ere the kind of terms her African classmates didnt want to hear. Instead, they preferred to hear the question answered in this way: “Africa is the cradle of humankind” and “Africans are passionate and generous”.Apparently, there are some misunderstandings between us. Its true that with incidents lik

19、e the Ebola outbreak in Western Africa and the emergence (出现) of pirates off the coast of Somalia hitting the news, its easy for us to keep forgetting that Africa has one of the worlds oldest civilizations Egypt, born by the worlds longest river, the Nile. The proof is in the Great Pyramid of Giza a

20、nd the Great Sphinx of Giza, which are both popular among tourists. And the tombs of ancient Egypt have also become endless sources for the literature and film industries.When it comes to the natural environment of Africa, our misunderstandings are only bigger. But the truth is that instead of being

21、 extremely hot all year and covered by desert, the continent has large areas of savannas (稀树草原) where lions, giraffes and zebras live, the snowcapped Kilimanjaro the highest mountain in Africa and even thick forest on the island of Madagascar.These misunderstandings are one of the reasons why the 20

22、18 Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation was held on Sept 3 and 4 to understand each other better.Indeed, only by visiting Africa herself did Huang see the convenient living conditions, the amazing natural beauty and the friendly people.In her eyes, her classmates were as hopeful a

26、. Valuing a Culture. B. Understanding Africa.C. Paying a Visit to Africa. D. Discovering a Continent. CWe hope youve finally made your peace with Pluto being downgraded from a planet to an ice dwarf (冰矮星)，because we have some more jarring news for you: It seems your teachers may have been wrong abou

27、t the number of continents on the earth，too.Earlier this year, scientists published a report in the journal of the Geological Society of America detailing an eighth continent called Zealandia, roughly the size of India and almost completely hid itself under the Pacific Ocean east of Australia. Cover

28、ing all of New Zealand as well as several nearby islands, Zealandia likely spent the best of its above-water days as part of the supercontinent Gondwana before fragmenting off Australia and Antarctica some 80 million years ago. This lost, underwater continent is just beginning to reveal its secrets,

29、 making for one of the most promising scientific discoveries this year.While researchers have been aware of the 1. 9 million-square-mile mass for two decades， Zealandia has only recently become the object of serious study since the Geological Society paper argued that it fits all the criteria for a

30、proper continent, including a continental crust (地壳 )thats distinctly separate from the seabed in terms of elevation, thickness, and geology. A team of 32 scientists from 12 countries just completed their first visit to six dig sites around Zealandia, where they drilled up more than 8,000 feet of se

31、diment cores (沉积物岩心)that will help explain the lost continents 80-million-year history.Because there is no official body that formally recognizes continents, whether or not Zeal- andia ends up in future geography textbooks will come down to its acceptance by the scientific community at large, possib

32、ly with a little help from travelers like you.11. Why does the author mention Pluto? A.To express his or her pity.B. To introduce the topic.C. To go against the teachers.D. To explain the ice dwarf.12. What do we know about Zealandia in Paragraph 2?A. It neighbors Australia.B. It belongs to Gondwana

33、 now.C. It is similar to Antarctica in size.D. It has a history of over 80 billion years.13. What can most probably help discover more secrets about Zealandia?A. The sediment cores on Zealandia.B. The wildlife in New Zealand.C. The standard for a continent.D. The seabed near Antarctica. 31.Where doe

34、s the text probably come from?A.A travel brochure.B. An advertisement.C.A geography magazine.D. A science fiction.DYouve got your fancy new suitcase and youre ready to take it with you on your travels across the globe.You get to the airport, quickly moving through the crowds on the uneven pavement,

35、rushing to check in. Then, your heart sinks when you realize your new suitcase has got a serious case of the wobbles (摇晃).Why does this happen?Scientists from the Universite Paris-Diderot in France investigated this matter and published their findings in the science journal Proceedings of the Royal

36、Society A. They also suggested some solutions to overcome this modern-day problem.To learn more about the issue, they put a suitcase on a treadmill (跑步机) and observed what happened.It was soon noted that the “wobble” was actually a result of repeated actions that caused the suitcase to sway from sid

37、e to side. They discovered that if one of the wheels encountered an obstacle such as a small bump, it jumped into the air for just a moment and then banged back down to the ground. That second action caused the opposite wheel to lift off the ground and then to bang back down, causing the first to li

38、ft again and so on. This swaying increased as the luggage was pulled along.“The suitcase is a fun way to tackle the problem, but the study would be the same for any trolley with two wheels or blades (桨叶),” Sylvain Courrech du Pont, lead author of the study, told BBC News. “So it will be the same for

39、 a caravan (大篷车) or maybe also for airplanes.”Instead of slowing down when we see a rocky part of the path, the scientists recommended doing the exact opposite and speeding up. This is because going faster gives the wheels less time to rise and fall, preventing the case from swaying. They also said

40、that reducing the angle of the suitcase by lowering its handle to the ground would help keep it steady.“These findings could help researchers simulate and design better rolling suitcases and other pulled trolleys, such as towed trailers ,” Courrech du Pont added.With these masterminds (智者) working o

41、n perfecting our suitcase problems, wobbly luggage may soon be a thing of history, leaving us to enjoy our travels.32. The main purpose of the first two paragraphs is to _.A. show the importance of a good wheeled suitcase for travelB. lead up to the wobbling problem of wheeled suitcasesC. describe h

42、ow unstable wheeled suitcases can beD. show that wobbling can cause wheeled suitcases to stop working33. According to the scientists, when a suitcase meets with an obstacle, _.A. the swaying will stop for a momentB. its two wheels will jump into the air at the same timeC. even a small obstacle can l

43、ead to a serious damageD. there is a series of repeated actions leading to the swaying34. What can be done to keep a suitcase steady on an uneven path according to the text?A. Slow down.B. Pull the suitcase at a faster speed.C. Raise the handle of the suitcase.D. Increase the angle of the suitcase.3

44、5. According to the article, the findings could _.A. help improve the design of suitcasesB. solve the wobble of suitcases completelyC. be helpful in the advancement of treadmillsD. be used to develop blades for boats第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Technology can help so

45、lve the problem of bad, absent teachers in poor country schoolsThe UNs Millennium Development Goals included the ambition that by 2015 all the worlds children would complete primary school. This has largely been achieved: nine out of ten children are now enrolled. 36 . Even though most of the worlds

46、 children go to school, an awful lot of them learn pretty much nothing there. According to a recent World Bank study of seven subSaharan African countries, half of nine-year-olds cannot read a simple word and three-quarters cannot read a simple sentence. 37 . The same study found that only 7% of tea

47、chers had the minimum knowledge needed to teach reading and writing effectively. When classrooms were inspected to see whether a teacher was present, half the time the answer was no. 38 . It seems to bring about bigger improvements in poor countries than in rich ones. Some of the scarce resources being spent on teachers could therefore be better spent on ed-tech. That does not mean dumping computers on schools in the hope that children will understandhow to use them, a folly（荒唐事） on which plenty of money has been wasted. 39 , that gets things right more
