From roller coasters to adventure tours performances to experiments, there are plenty of exciting attractions in the UK. Here is our pick of the best attractions that children can visit.
The Natural History Museum
Why go: This really is the grandfather of all London museums—the beauty of the building and the amazing exhibits. Look out for the whale skeleton(骨架)occupying the entry hall, but don’t miss the largest piece of gold (or a model of it)in the minerals gallery. You can easily spend a day here—tasty steaks, sandwiches and pizzas. Try to avoid weekends, because the crowds are larger.
Best for: Children aged 5 and over. If time is limited, families should go quickly and directly towards the dinosaur gallery, because it’s really wonderful.
Details: Entry is free, although there is a charge for some temporary exhibitions.
Legoland
Why go: Some 80 million Lego bricks have gone into the creation of this colourful park. There are thrilling rides and countless ways to spend money in shops. Yes, the queues can be long (unless you pay extra for the queue-jumping equipment, which is useful though it does not cover all rides).
Best for: Legoland is aimed at children under 10s, with pre-schoolers particularly well catered for in Duplo Valley.
Details: 32 per person; under 3s go free. 25 per cent discount for booking online more than seven days in advance.
Warner Bros Studio Tour London-The Making of Harry Potter
Why go: You’ve read the books, you’ve watched the films, but no Harry Potter fan will want to miss the chance to go behind the scenes at the film studios where all eight of the movies were made. Sharing the secrets behind the most successful film series of all time and yet still managing to keep the sense of magic alive, this studio tour gives visitors access to two locations filled with original sets and costumes.

Standing at the finish line, 70-year-old Bob Long spent a while reflecting on the achievement he’d just made. Behind him was the wild, endless Mongolian grassland extending into the distance. This American had just become the oldest person to ever complete and win the Mongol Derby, the world’s longest horse race.
Long, a rider all his life, entered the race after being inspired by All the Wild Horses, a movie based on the grueling event.
Fearing that he wouldn’t be able to complete it, he set about preparing his mind and body for this “hardest, toughest, most demanding thing you can do on a horse”, an annual 1000-kilometer race that was recognized as the world’s longest horse race by The Guinness Book of Records in 2011. He confirmed his belief that preparation can surpass youth, as some of the other riders were less prepared.
Although Long had been riding horses for many years, the hardship and uncertainty of the task pushed him to his limit and forced him to depend entirely on his own will. The race organizers had provided an extensive support network to keep an eye on the participants from afar. Despite that, the physical strain of riding such a long distance made simple things like squatting (蹲) down at the end of the day almost impossible.
Along the vast race course there were unpredictable circumstances beyond Long’s control, however well prepared he’d been. Weather was one of them, which could switch from heavy rain to burning unexpectedly.
Above all else, the biggest obstacle was the state of mind. Without a living soul in sight, Long was desperate for interaction, guidance, and comfort. This feeling of loneliness accounted for his hope that one of his fellow competitors would catch up.
Regardless of the hardship, Long felt a sort of spiritual adventure while traveling through the wilderness. He was provided with some memorable moments while connecting with nature. He also grew to love the country and the communities along the route.
Still holding the passion for riding, Long never dismisses the idea of competing in another Mongol Derby.
56. What distinguished Bob Long from other competitors in the Mongol Derby
A. He rode the whole race course alone.
B. He completed the toughest part of the course.
C. He was the oldest participant of the horse race.
D. He was most likely to enter the competition again.
57. What does the underlined word “grueling” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Unpredictable but memorable.
B. Difficult and exhausting.
C. Comfortable and pleasant.
D. Romantic but time-consuming.
58. Why did Bob Long decide to enter the Mongol Derby
A. He wanted to break the Guinness World Record.
B. He was encouraged by a movie about the race.
C. He believed his years of riding experience would guarantee victory.
D. He was eager to explore the Mongolian grassland.
59. What was the biggest challenge that Long faced during the race
A. The changeable weather.
B. The mental state in the course.
C. The difficulty in finding the right route.
D. The physical strain of riding a long distance.
60. What is the text mainly about
A. An introduction to the Mongol Derby.
B. A review of a film based on the longest horse race.
C. The experience of the Mongol Derby’s oldest winner.
D. The preparations before a long and difficult horse race.
C
Goldfish are known for their terrible memories. One common saying even says that they only have a three-second memory. Despite having no scientific basis, it has spread for many years. “What is confusing is that it’s pretty much the same wherever you go in the world,” Culumn Brown, an expert in fish, said. “In some places, it’s two seconds, and in others, it’s ten, but it’s always short.” However, is that really the case
Brown has studied the intelligence of fish, including goldfish, for more than 25 years. He said, “In reality, goldfish are often used as a common model for studying memory and learning in fish because of their good performance. And there are thousands of studies on goldfish.” For example, if goldfish are fed at only one side of their tank(缸)，they will quickly learn and remember to stay at that side at feeding times no matter whether they are actually fed. Similarly, if they are trained to push a red tool instead of the blue one, they will continue to show a preference for that color long after the experiment is finished.
Despite these studies, people’s views on goldfish haven’t changed much. A big reason for this is that most people do not come across live fish in their daily life. And even when they do, people don’t spend time with fish the way that they do with other animals like cats. What’s more, people’s guilt(内疚) may be another factor in thinking poorly of goldfish’s memory. It makes them feel good about putting goldfish in a small tank.
Goldfish properly cared for can live for 20 years, so owners might want to consider getting their pets large tanks with many objects and other fish, as well as taking the time to play games with them and teach them skills. After all, your goldfish might remember certain experiences for years to come.
61. What is pointed out about goldfish in the first paragraph
A. People worldwide like to keep them as pets.
B. Their strange behavior confuses lots of people.
C. Some studies have proved their terrible memories.
D. Misunderstanding about their memory is common.
62. Why does the author mention the two examples in paragraph 2
A. To prove goldfish are easy to raise.
B. To show goldfish have a good memory.
C. To describe how goldfish form good eating habits.
D. To explain why goldfish are smarter than other animals.
63. What may make people’s view on goldfish remain unchanged
A. The bad influence of goldfish on other fish.
B. The poor relationship between goldfish and cats.
C. People’s doubts about research and dislike for goldfish
D. People’s unfamiliarity with goldfish and wish to reduce guilt.
64. Which of the following would the author agree with
A. Pet owners are supposed to treat goldfish better.
B. Pet owners ought to send goldfish back to sea.
C. Mixing goldfish with other fish species is unwise.
D. Raising goldfish is good for people’s mental health.
65. What may be the best title for the text
A. Are goldfish the smartest fish
B. Is it right to keep goldfish in a small tank
C. Do goldfish really have a short memory
D. Why are goldfish chosen for research
D
As is known to everyone, the options we make have an effect on our future. Suppose I am an intelligent student with good marks. But on the other hand, being lazy, I do badly in my examinations. I am refused admission to university and cannot find a good job. The golden future I had imagined will never be. All these are all from a bad choice!
However, your choices affect your future in a way that is a lot more complicated. This is because nearly all the choices you make affect your character. Your character is displayed through your choices, but it is also formed by them. No matter when you make a choice, your character changes or grows, or diminishes depending on whether the decision you made is wise or foolish. Your character is being made by you, bit by bit, choice by choice. And so, you become the sort of person who will make a certain kind of choice in a certain situation.
Some will argue this is not true. After all, the field of human choice is a narrow one. Most of the things that form us in our lives are not subject to choice. We cannot choose when and where to be born, whether our families will be rich or poor, kind or cruel. We cannot even entirely control who we will meet in our lives. With so much that we cannot choose, how can we be said to be responsible for anything
There is some truth in this. We are thrown into life without any say over the matter, and have little control over most of it. However, we do have some power of choice, and we do control the most important thing of all: how we respond to circumstances. We can choose to keep struggling in hard times, or to give up.
This ability to choose how we behave and respond is a great gift. It is our key to having confidence in the future. It is human nature to fear the future, as the future is unknown. You can’t entirely control what will happen to you tomorrow. But if you have confidence in your character, formed by years of making good choices, then you do know one thing for certain about the future: no matter what happens, you will make a choice that you will be proud of.
At every moment, then, practise forming your character when you make your choices, no matter how small they are. Remember: your choices form your character. And your character determines your future.
66. What example does the author use to illustrate the impact of bad choices on the future
A. A student who fails to get into university due to laziness despite good academic potential.
B. A person who can’t choose their birthplace and family background.
C. Someone who gives up easily during hard times.
D. An individual who is afraid of the unknown future.
67. What can we infer from the passage
A. We have no control over any aspect of our lives except making choices.
B. Good character formed by making wise choices gives us confidence in the future.
C. External factors like birthplace and family background have no impact on our life.
D. Small choices in daily life don’t matter in shaping our character.
68. In the author’s opinion, what is the most important thing we can control in life
A. When and where to be born.
B. Whether our families will be rich or poor.
C. How we respond to different circumstances.
D. Who we will meet in our lives.
69. According to the passage, why are our choices closely related to our future
A. Because choices directly decide our social status.
B. Because choices can influence our character which determines our future.
C. Because making choices helps us gain more control over external
circumstances.
D. Because every choice we make ensures a successful future.
70. What is the main idea of the passage
A. The ways to make good choices in different situations.
B. The uncontrollable factors existing in our life.
C. The significant relationship between our choices, character and future.
D. The importance of having confidence in the future.

阅读下面短文，请根据短文后的要求答题。
Soldier Cui Xinze’s mission is to guard the pipeline that transports refined oil from Golmud in Qinghai to Lhasa in Tibet Autonomous Region, a vital artery(干线) that is called a “lifeline” for Tibet.
His day begins with a three-hour patrol to check for leaks(泄露) along the pipeline, which crosses rivers and ravines(沟壑)in the mountainous region. If something appears abnormal, he and his team have to walk 30 kilometers to patrol the area for which they’re responsible.
The oxygen concentration on the plateau is just half of that on the plains. “Although we lack oxygen, we never lack the faith and passion to guard the pipeline as soldiers,” says the 39-year-old, who began his mission at the age of 19.
The job is more than just simply conducting a daily patrol. Sometimes when a spillage(泄露) occurs, it can mean extreme danger, and it requires the guards to plug(堵) the leak and expose themselves to possible fires.
Apart from a lack of oxygen, they have to struggle with the bitter cold. The temperature can fall as low as -40 ℃ in winter and they have to patrol regularly, despite the strong wind and snow. Although it’s summer, the station where Cui is based has its heating system on.
“Compared with the physical pain we have to endure, the loneliness is more painful,” says Zhao Weiqiang, a soldier who has worked with Cui for 10 years. Day after day, they walk the same route, do the same exercise and even have the same meals, since food is not easy to transport to their station. Now they’ re trying to cultivate vegetables and raise animals at their station to help alleviate the tedium(单调乏味). Despite the drawbacks, they still carry their sense of duty. “To guard the pipeline is our mission and I’m proud to do it,” says Zhao.

Dunhuang: A Treasure of Chinese Culture
Dunhuang, located in the northwestern part of China, is a city with a long history and rich culture. It was a crucial stop on the ancient Silk Road, playing a significant role in promoting international trade and cultural exchanges in history.
The most famous attraction in Dunhuang is undoubtedly the Mogao Grottoes, which are well-known for murals and painted sculptures. The murals cover a wide range of subjects, ranging from religious stories to scenes of everyday life. The artworks in the caves have provided valuable materials for scholars around the world to study ancient Chinese art, religion, history, and culture. They have also influenced the development of art and culture in many countries along the Silk Road.
However, these precious cultural relics are facing threats. Therefore, it is our responsibility to take effective measures to protect them. We should raise public awareness of cultural heritage protection. Only in this way can we ensure that this magnificent cultural treasure can be passed down to future generations.
