Some of the best cycling routes in the world pass through its most beautiful scenery. Here are some of world’s best bike routes for cyclists who either are up for breaking a good sweat or simply seeing the world without leaving an ugly carbon footprint behind.
The Great Windy Road, Victoria, Australia
If you like a challenge, take on this 243-kilometer windy road along Australia’s south-eastern coast. If a day is all you’ve got, take the 60-kilometer route from Torquay to Bells Beach. There you’ll cycle through rural farmland, enjoy the sweeping ocean views from cliff tops, and snake past the wetlands around Lake Connewarre.
Udaipur City Tour, Rajasthan, India
Biking is arguably the best way to explore Udaipur, Venice of the East.
Cyclists often need to cycle past herdsmen and their goats and camels, sharing narrow, old pavements in this romantic place. But surrounded by ancient castles, temples and grand palaces, Udaipur brings about one of the best biking experiences, allowing cyclists to truly discover rural India.
The Karakoram Highway, China-Pakistan
The Karakoram Highway is the highest international road in the world, reaching an altitude of 4,700 meters at the Khunjerab Pass. Starting in Kashgar, China, cyclists can travel up to 1,200 kilometers on mostly unpaved roads, but the views are as breathtaking as the riding.
Route of the Hiawatha, Idaho-Montana, United States
Take your family out to Montana this summer and cycle along the most scenic disused railroad in the country. The railroad turned bike trail turns into 24 kilometers of leisure biking that takes you over seven trestles(高架桥) and through 10 tunnels, with the longest one, the Taft Tunnel, stretching for 2.7 kilometers.
21.In which tour can you enjoy the seaside scenery
A. The Great Windy Road. B. Udaipr City Tour.
C. The Karakoram Highway. D. Route of the Hiawatha.
22.What can you do on the Udaipur city tour
A. Go to Venice. B. Feed wild animals.
C. Visit cultural relics. D. Enjoy modern architectures.
23.What’s special about the Karakoram Highway
A. It is a totally undeveloped route. B. It goes along an abandoned railway.
C. It owns the longest tunnel in the world. D. It lies higher than other international roads.
B
Fifteen years ago, Claybourne Elder was a twenty something from Utah, standing in the back of a Broadway theater watching "Putnam County Spelling Bee", when an act of kindness opened a door to new possibilities.
"This man came up to me and said, 'Hey, are you from out of town ' And I said, 'Yeah, I'm just here visiting.' And the man handed me $200 and said, 'You looked like you were having more fun than the people in the expensive seats. Go buy yourself a ticket to 'Sweeney Todd' tomorrow. It'll change your life'," Elder said. Elder never got the man's name—just $200 and a photo.
Elder had never seen "Sweeney Todd", so he bought "a great seat". Starring in that production was the legendary Patti LuPone. "That did not seem real. Patti LuPone...she seemed like a person you read about in a book or heard about somewhere, but not someone you saw perform," Elder said.
He then tried his best to earn a place on the stage. LuPone is now his co-star in the hit musical "Company"—a turning point of fate(命运) that goes back to the stranger who gave him the means to watch one of Broadway's biggest productions. "It takes that kind of generosity to show you what generosity can be, to turn around and do it again," Elder said.
Giving back is now a big part of his life. Once a month, he and his 4-year-old son pay for a stranger's meal at their local diner. Recently, he has started giving away free tickets to his show through social media.
After every performance, Elder takes a picture with the strangers he buys tickets for and hangs the photos in his dressing room. "I hope that it awakens(唤醒) something in them, just like it did in me," he said. "What I hope happens is that these people are shown some sort of sincere kindness from a stranger and hopefully in turn go out and do something kind for somebody who they don't know."
24.How did Elder feel when he saw Patti LuPoneper form
A. Moved and grateful. B.Inspired but worried.
C.Curious but doubtful. D.Surprised and excited.
25.What did Elder do after seeing "Sweeney Todd"
A. He learned from Patti LuPone. B. He tried to contact the stranger.
C. He trained hard to become an actor. D. He created "Company" with Patti LuPone.
26.Why does Elder give free tickets to those strangers
A.To get personal popularity. B.To take photos with them.
C. To inspire them to do good. D.To help them know more about his show.
27.What would be the best title for the text
A. An Act of Kindness Goes Far B.Hard Work Always Pays off
C. Luck Falls in an Unexpected Way D. A Good Play Can Change Your Life
C
Biscayne is not very far from the lights, noise and excitement of downtown Miami. But it has a very different atmosphere from the big city. Biscayne National Park was established as a national monument in 1968. It became a national park in 1980. That year, its size also increased. The park now covers more than 70, 000 hectares.
If you enjoy water, Biscayne is the park for you. Ninety-five percent of the park is water. Many kinds of animals live in these waters. Some of them are threatened or endangered. You will find the huge, gentle West Indian manatee(海牛)，the less gentle American crocodile，several kinds of sea turtles，and more than 500 species of fish.
Scientists say human history at Biscayne begins more than 10, 000 years ago. However, evidence of the area’s earliest people is mostly underwater now, as water levels have risen over time. Within the last 3, 000 years, people began to settle in the area. Scientists continue to learn about these people by examining the big hills of shells they left behind. The shells contain other waste, too, including early tools and housewares.
European explorers began arriving in the area in the early 1500s. They brought with them diseases like smallpox and measles(天花和麻疹). Over time，these diseases killed huge numbers of natives. Early explorers arrived in the area on ships. The reefs and rough waters made it difficult for ship captains. Biscayne’s waters contain more than 50 shipwrecks. Scuba divers today can explore six of them.
Four ecosystems come together here, which is what makes the park so diverse. The blending ecosystems create “edge communities“. These edge communities support a huge amount of wildlife.
The underwater diversity is what attracts most people to Biscayne National Park. Many visitors come here to scuba dive in Biscayne National Park in 1980.
28.What happened to Biscayne National Park in 1980
A. It covered more than 70, 000 hectares. B. It began to be set up as a national park.
C. It was built as a national monument. D. It became much larger in area.
29.By examining the shells they left behind, scientists can________
A. learn how the earliest people arrived B. learn about the sea animals
C. learn about the life of the earliest people D. know how old the place is
30.What does “edge communities” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to
A. The place where the natives live.
B. The place where Europeans first arrived.
C. The place where people like to scuba dive.
D. The place where four ecosystems meet.
31.What attracts tourists most to Biscayne National Park
A. Its ecosystems. B. Its long history.
C. Its endangered animals. D. Its underwater activities.
D
The Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and pleasure. We use it to learn a new language. We find advice on it. We use it to connect with family and friends. We use it to stay in touch with events we care about.The list goes on and on.
As far as the Internet being a part of our lives, well, that train has left the station. There is no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health It might be, say researchers. A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure in a young group: teenagers.
The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week only online may cause high blood pressure, which makes their hearts and blood vessels(血管) work too hard. Over time, this extra pressure increases the risk of a heart attack. High blood pressure can also cause heart and other diseases.
The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. 335 young people, from 14 to 17 years old, took part in it. 134 of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. And researchers found that out of these 134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure. The researchers said the study was the first to connect heavy Web use with high blood pressure.
The lead researcher is Andrea Cassidy-Bushrow. She says, “Using the Internet is part of our daily life, but it shouldn’t ruin(毁坏) us.” Ms. Cassidy-Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to stop to have a rest regular from their computers or smartphones and do some kind of physical activity. She also suggests that parents shouldn’t let their children use the Internet for more than two hours a day, five days a week.
32.What does the underlined part “that train has left the station” mean in Paragraph 2
A. The train has changed its course.
B. Life without the Internet is nowhere to be found.
C. The Internet brings great changes to people’s life.
D. The Internet has improved people’s life.
33.What can we know about the study according to Paragraph 4
A. There was no similar study like it before.
B. Most of the young people had high blood pressure.
C. Adult people aged above 17 took part in the study.
D. Over half of the teens in the study were heavy Internet users.
34.Which of the following would Andrea Cassidy-Bushrow probably agree with
A. That teenagers shouldn’t use the Internet.
B. That the Internet will ruin human life in the future.
C. That smartphones are more harmful than computers.
D. That regular breaks are necessary when using the Internet.
35.What does the text mainly talk about
A. Heavy Internet users are mostly teenagers.
B. Every coin has two sides—so does the Internet.
C. Too much Internet use may be bad for teenagers.
D. How to prevent teenagers from using the Internet.

One weekend in July, Jane and her husband, Tom, had driven three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, "I'm going to find a better spot for us to camp." And then she walked away.
With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but the forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.
"Tom!" she cried. "Help!"
No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.
Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling(滴落) somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hoped it would lead her to the lake.
As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard the sound of a helicopter. Is that for me Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them down if they came back again.

66.Dear John,
I feel more than delighted to receive your email. It is so amazing that life in senior high is different from that my previous school.
I would like to share my new school experience at your request. In daily life, it is so convenient to shop for various things at the convenience shop. Teachers and classmates are friendly and activities are wonderful. When it comes to study, I find it stressful to have so many lessons and a great deal of homework. In order to get ahead, I am always attentive in all classes and think actively. Besides, I tend to revise lessons in the evening every day.
How are you getting along with everything (What about your school life ) Please write back soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
67.Paragraph 1:
But no more helicopters came and it was dark. Immediately, absolute darkness ruled the forest. Jane, exhausted and scared, lay down near a stone, missing her family at a distance. All the fantastic memories crowded in and she couldn't help crying, "Hadn't I quarreled with Tom, walked away and climbed to the high place, I wouldn't be trapped in this awful place and confronted with the danger of dying." She regretted her behaviour with endless anxieties, and then became asleep with tears in her eyes.
Paragraph 2:
It was daybreak when Jane woke up. Weak as she was, she struggled to her feet, continuing searching for assistance. To her great joy, a helicopter was flying overhead again. Eager and excited, she waved her yellow blouse and spared no effort to yell so as to attract its attention. Fortunately, she was eventually noticed and brought into the helicopter. There she saw her husband, a man staring at her, wearing an expression of relief. As tightly as possible, she hugged him and was too thrilled to say anything. Besides, they agreed never to quarrel again, determining to live the life to the fullest.

In February, 2005, my uncle Phillip was teaching his seventh-grade students a poem called Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening. He liked the poem very much, so he recorded it on his home answering machine. When Phillip and his family returned home from their vacation, he listened to his voice messages. One old man said he dialed the wrong number. But, he added, he’d really enjoyed the poem. A few days later, that old man called. He said that he wanted to hear the poem again. The two men talked. John, now 73, who used to be a doctor, lived in almost state. It turned out that his brother’s number was almost the same my uncle’s. That was 13 years ago. They’ve spoken on the phone a few times a month ever since. They haven’t gone to a game together or had a cup of coffee together. Their friendship is just to pick up the phone. And to them their best friend is someone they’ve never met.
