The best day trips from Chicago
Making big travel plans can be difficult. Luckily, you don’t need to book a plane ticket or even a hotel to have a fun change of lifestyle. A simple day trip from Chicago is cheap and easy. These quick trips from Chicago are just a few hours away by car or train.
Fennville
Many people wait until fall to go to western Michigan’s fruit belt. But there’s an area where you can go a couple of months earlier when the stone fruits like peaches and cherries are ready for picking. The town of Fennville is a great base for tasting the region’s sweet fruit.
South Bend
There’s a lot to enjoy in South Bend. Check out the city’s cultural side with an afternoon visit to the History Museum, which was once home to the family of a local industrialist and inventor — James Oliver. When you are hungry, head for Cafe Navarre, a restaurant housed in a repurposed 20th-century bank.
Madison
Located between two lakes, Madison is a city filled with beautiful sights in addition to all the cheese and beer you’ve heard so much about. Begin your visit with a special tour on two wheels. You can rent a bike, which allows you to make 30-minute trips around the city.
Gurnee
The village of Gurnee draws 23 million visitors each year. Start your day by having brunch at the Chocolate Sanctuary, where you can taste homemade bread with chocolate strawberries. Spend some time walking around Gurnee Mills, which has more than 160 stores selling everything from sporting goods to home decorations (装饰物).

A bicycle may be seen by most people as just another vehicle (交通工具), but for many Londoners, cycling is a way of life. According to a UK government survey in 2017, about 570,000 bike journeys were made every day in London. In fact, almost half of the vehicles that pass over London Bridge each day are bikes.
London introduced a public bike-sharing system in 2010. “There can be no doubt that our trusty bicycles have changed that way people get around our great city,” Johnson told The Guardian.
In London, bikes are used for more than just taking short trips to and from the subway. Wherever you want to go in the city, riding a bike is usually the quickest and easiest choice. And it’s not just shared bikes that the government is encouraging people to ride. In many companies across the UK, the UK government’s Cycle to Work plan allows workers to buy a brand new bike without having to pay any tax (税). This means that it’s common to see many people cycling to and from work, and some employers even provide showers in the workplaces for their workers. More importantly, a cycle-friendly boss may let you off for being late if you ride a bike to work.
Not only is it great for the environment and our body, cycling is also good for the mind. According to National Geographic, “Bike riding can improve people’s happiness.”
24. What’s the writer’s purpose by listing numbers in the first paragraph
A. To compare bikes with other vehicles.
B. To introduce bike journeys in London.
C. To ask people to cycle as a way of life.
D. To show Londoners’ preference for cycling.
25. What’s Johnson’s attitude towards the bike-sharing system in London
A. Unconcerned. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.
26. Cyclists in London might enjoy the following except ________.
A. tax-free bikes B. bike-sharing services
C. shorter working hours D. showers in workplaces
27. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A. London’s Cycle to Work project.
B. London’s public bike-sharing system.
C. Cycling as a healthy way of life in London.
D. Reasons for cycling’s popularity in London.
C
Will printed newspapers disappear one day It’s quite possible. Here are some reasons.
First of all, printed newspapers aren’t the only way to get information. You can find the information on the Internet. Besides, you can read a lot of information online for free, which makes the Internet even more attractive.
Lots of people are becoming Internet users, and most of Internet users read news online. For example, I usually get new information about events that happen in the world by reading short messages on Twitter. As far as I know, students in our university hardly read newspapers. One can argue that older generations may have been used to reading printed newspapers and do not want to change anything, but research proves the opposite. According to a study, the number of Internet users between the ages of 70 and 75 has increased from 26% to 45% within four years.
Where do newspapers get their money The answer is “advertisers”. But will advertisers continue to put ads in printed newspapers that are unlikely to be popular with the public It is unwise to print ads in a newspaper, especially when you have a lot of other opportunities. Online advertisements are becoming more and more prevalent. After all, it is easier to track how many clicks have been made on this link than to find out how many people have actually read a newspaper and paid attention to advertisements.
Moreover, printed newspapers have some effects on our environment. Tons of wood are needed to produce the papers, and lots of electricity and fuel can be used to transport them.
28. What does the author want to show by mentioning the study in Paragraph 3
A. Printed newspapers are losing their readers.
B. Old people have difficulty accepting new things.
C. Printed newspapers are the main source of news for people.
D. Old people enjoy the feeling of reading a printed newspaper.
29. What does the underlined word “prevalent” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Interesting. B. Expensive. C. Popular. D. Confusing.
30. What can we infer about printed newspapers from the last paragraph
A. They have great advantages.
B. They are important to people.
C. They are a cheap way to get news.
D. They are not environmentally-friendly.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. Why printed newspapers may disappear.
B. How the Internet changes people’s way of reading.
C. How printed newspapers influence people’s lifestyles.
D. Why the Internet is more popular than printed newspapers.
D
A new study found that the most well-liked students among their classmates are those who studied well and were helpful and kind. On the other hand, the classmates they considered the most popular were sometimes seen as mean and aggressive (好斗的). The study can provide information for educators who want to understand their students’ experiences and learn how to encourage positive behavior.
For the study, Nicole Brass worked with colleagues at the University of Michigan and surveyed more than 500 middle school students. The students were asked who they thought were the most well-liked among their classmates and who they thought were the most popular. And they were also asked what behavior made their classmates well-liked or popular. About half of the students were together as classmates at the same school since kindergarten (幼儿园), while the other half attended a new middle school elsewhere after kindergarten. The two groups of students liked the same type of classmates. “The kids that the two groups say they like a lot are those who try hard at school and are always nice,” Brass says.
However, when it came to the kids considered as popular, there was a huge difference between the two groups. Those students who had been together since kindergarten reported the most popular students were also kind and helpful, while the students who attended a new middle school reported the most popular students tended to be mean and aggressive. This suggests that behavior that is not positive can result in popularity in the short term before students get to know one another well.
“We often think about how friends matter a lot, but there are other factors affecting popularity. We want to discover some of these influences for anybody who works with middle school students,” Brass says. The role social media plays in who is popular and who is well-liked among middle school students was not evaluated in the recent research, but it’s an area that Brass hopes to study in the future. She believes this area has been very important in the pandemic.
32. How was the study carried out
A. By surveying the behaviors of pupils. B. By collecting teachers’ opinions of students.
C. By interviewing different groups of students. D. By observing students’ behavior in a classroom.
33. What does the result of the study tell us
A. Kind and helpful students are less welcome among old classmates.
B. Kind and helpful students can influence mean and aggressive students.
C. Mean and aggressive students easily win popularity among new students.
D. Mean and aggressive students have never been popular since kindergarten.
34. Which group might benefit greatly from the study
A. Parents. B. Doctors. C. Scientists. D. Teachers.
35. What does the underlined phrase “this area” in the last paragraph refer to
A. The practical use of the result of the new study.
B. The role social media plays in students’ popularity.
C. The effect of students’ behavior on their popularity.
D The influences for whoever works with middle school students.

These groups, like volunteer organizations, can offer you a sense of familiarity.
Add more routine (惯例) to your day

【答案】17. C 18. A 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【原文】Do you like pasta and pizza Italian food culture appears in front of us in its full diversity. An interesting fact is that cooking differs from each other in various parts of Italy.
The northern region has always been famous for animal farming. People there mainly have butter, milk and meat. Moreover, meat is usually served in large pieces. And if cut into small pieces, it is used to make sauce. The South provides a good harvest of fruits and vegetables. Herbs are grown there, which are then added to food.
On average, a dinner in Italy, not in the most expensive restaurant for two people with wine, will cost up to 50 euros. There are also other choices: takeaway food or “tourist menu” — an Italian business lunch, which costs around 20 euros. The price is reasonable. It includes a main dish, a salad, a dessert and a drink.
And, of course, one more thing we have to mention, Italian coffee. Believe me, even in an ordinary café in any city of Italy, coffee will be better than that in many places around the world. You can’t miss it.

A bicycle may be seen by most people as just another vehicle (交通工具), but for many Londoners, cycling is a way of life. According to a UK government survey in 2017, about 570,000 bike journeys were made every day in London. In fact, almost half of the vehicles that pass over London Bridge each day are bikes.
London introduced a public bike-sharing system in 2010. “There can be no doubt that our trusty bicycles have changed that way people get around our great city,” Johnson told The Guardian.
In London, bikes are used for more than just taking short trips to and from the subway. Wherever you want to go in the city, riding a bike is usually the quickest and easiest choice. And it’s not just shared bikes that the government is encouraging people to ride. In many companies across the UK, the UK government’s Cycle to Work plan allows workers to buy a brand new bike without having to pay any tax (税). This means that it’s common to see many people cycling to and from work, and some employers even provide showers in the workplaces for their workers. More importantly, a cycle-friendly boss may let you off for being late if you ride a bike to work.
Not only is it great for the environment and our body, cycling is also good for the mind. According to National Geographic, “Bike riding can improve people’s happiness.”
24. What’s the writer’s purpose by listing numbers in the first paragraph
A. To compare bikes with other vehicles.
B. To introduce bike journeys in London.
C. To ask people to cycle as a way of life.
D. To show Londoners’ preference for cycling.
25. What’s Johnson’s attitude towards the bike-sharing system in London
A. Unconcerned. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.
26. Cyclists in London might enjoy the following except ________.
A. tax-free bikes B. bike-sharing services
C. shorter working hours D. showers in workplaces
27. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A. London’s Cycle to Work project.
B. London’s public bike-sharing system.
C. Cycling as a healthy way of life in London.
D. Reasons for cycling’s popularity in London.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了对许多伦敦人来说,骑自行车是一种生活方式,并分析了背后的原因。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“According to a UK government survey in 2017, about 570,000 bike journeys were made every day in London. In fact, almost half of the vehicles that pass over London Bridge each day are bikes. (根据英国政府2017年的一项调查,伦敦每天约有57万次自行车出行。事实上,每天通过伦敦桥的车辆中几乎有一半是自行车。)”可知,作者在第一段用数字是为了说明在伦敦骑自行车的人很多,很受欢迎。故选D。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段““There can be no doubt that our trusty bicycles have changed that way people get around our great city,” Johnson told The Guardian. ( Johnson在接受《卫报》采访时表示:“毫无疑问,我们值得信赖的自行车改变了人们在这座伟大城市的出行方式。”)”可知,Johnson对伦敦的自行车共享系统表示支持。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“And it’s not just shared bikes that the government is encouraging people to ride. In many companies across the UK, the UK government’s Cycle to Work plan allows workers to buy a brand new bike without having to pay any tax(税). This means that it’s common to see many people cycling to and from work, and some employers even provide showers in the workplaces for their workers. More importantly, a cycle-friendly boss may let you off for being late if you ride a bike to work. (政府鼓励人们骑的不仅仅是共享单车。在英国的许多公司,英国政府的自行车上班计划允许员工购买一辆全新的自行车而无需缴纳任何税。这意味着很多人骑自行车上下班是很常见的,一些雇主甚至在工作场所为员工提供淋浴。更重要的是,如果你骑自行车上班,一个对自行车友好的老板可能会原谅你迟到。)”可知,在伦敦骑自行车的人会享受很多福利。但是选项C“shorter working hours(缩短的工作时间)”并未提及。故选C。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“A bicycle may be seen by most people as just another vehicle(交通工具), but for many Londoners, cycling is a way of life. According to a UK government survey in 2017, about 570,000 bike journeys were made every day in London. In fact, almost half of the vehicles that pass over London Bridge each day are bikes.

(伦敦在2010年推出了公共自行车共享系统。)”和第三段“In London, bikes are used for more than just taking short trips to and from the subway. (在伦敦,自行车不仅仅用于往返地铁的短途旅行。)”以及第四段“Not only is it great for the environment and our body, cycling is also good for the mind. (它不仅对环境和我们的身体有好处,而且对我们的头脑也有好处。)”则分析了在伦敦为什么骑自行车出行很受欢迎。所以“Reasons for cycling’s popularity in London.(自行车在伦敦流行的原因。)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。
C
Will printed newspapers disappear one day It’s quite possible. Here are some reasons.
First of all, printed newspapers aren’t the only way to get information. You can find the information on the Internet. Besides, you can read a lot of information online for free, which makes the Internet even more attractive.
Lots of people are becoming Internet users, and most of Internet users read news online. For example, I usually get new information about events that happen in the world by reading short messages on Twitter. As far as I know, students in our university hardly read newspapers. One can argue that older generations may have been used to reading printed newspapers and do not want to change anything, but research proves the opposite. According to a study, the number of Internet users between the ages of 70 and 75 has increased from 26% to 45% within four years.
Where do newspapers get their money The answer is “advertisers”. But will advertisers continue to put ads in printed newspapers that are unlikely to be popular with the public It is unwise to print ads in a newspaper, especially when you have a lot of other opportunities. Online advertisements are becoming more and more prevalent. After all, it is easier to track how many clicks have been made on this link than to find out how many people have actually read a newspaper and paid attention to advertisements.
Moreover, printed newspapers have some effects on our environment. Tons of wood are needed to produce the papers, and lots of electricity and fuel can be used to transport them.
28. What does the author want to show by mentioning the study in Paragraph 3
A. Printed newspapers are losing their readers.
B. Old people have difficulty accepting new things.
C. Printed newspapers are the main source of news for people.
D. Old people enjoy the feeling of reading a printed newspaper.
29. What does the underlined word “prevalent” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Interesting. B. Expensive. C. Popular. D. Confusing.
30. What can we infer about printed newspapers from the last paragraph
A. They have great advantages.
B. They are important to people.
C. They are a cheap way to get news.
D. They are not environmentally-friendly.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. Why printed newspapers may disappear.
B. How the Internet changes people’s way of reading.
C. How printed newspapers influence people’s lifestyles.
D. Why the Internet is more popular than printed newspapers.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了印刷报纸面临着可能会消失的局面,并分析了背后的原因。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“One can argue that older generations may have been used to reading printed newspapers and do not want to change anything, but research proves the opposite. According to a study, the number of Internet users between the ages of 70 and 75 has increased from 26% to 45% within four years.(有人可能会说,老一辈人可能已经习惯了阅读印刷报纸,不想改变任何东西,但研究证明情况恰恰相反。根据一项研究,年龄在70到75岁之间的网民数量在四年内从26%增加到45%。)”可知,文章第三段提到这个研究是为了说明上一句的观点“有人可能会说,老一辈人可能已经习惯了阅读印刷报纸,不想改变任何东西”是不准确的。换句话说,老年人也开始放弃印刷报纸,也就是印刷报纸正在失去它们的读者。故选A。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章划线单词上文“Where do newspapers get their money The answer is “advertisers”. But will advertisers continue to put ads in printed newspapers that are unlikely to be popular with the public It is unwise to print ads in a newspaper, especially when you have a lot of other opportunities.(报纸的钱是从哪里来的 答案是“广告商”。但是,广告商会继续在不太可能受到公众欢迎的印刷报纸上投放广告吗?在报纸上刊登广告是不明智的,尤其是当你有很多其他机会的时候。)”可推测出,现在的广告商已经不太可能在印刷报纸上投放广告,由此可推测在网上投放广告越来越普及。选项A“Interesting (有趣的)”;选项B“Expensive (昂贵的)”;选项C“Popular (受欢迎的、流行的)”;选项D“Confusing (令人困惑的)”。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Moreover, printed newspapers have some effects on our environment. Tons of wood are needed to produce the papers, and lots of electricity and fuel can be used to transport them.(此外,印刷报纸对我们的环境有一些影响。生产纸张需要大量的木材,运输纸张需要大量的电力和燃料。)”可知,印刷报纸对环境有影响,并不环保。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Will printed newspapers disappear one day It’s quite possible. Here are some reasons.(纸质报纸有一天会消失吗?很有可能。以下是一些原因。)”以及下文第二、三、四段对印刷报纸会消失的原因的分析可知,文章主要分析了印刷报纸会消失的原因。故选A。
D
A new study found that the most well-liked students among their classmates are those who studied well and were helpful and kind. On the other hand, the classmates they considered the most popular were sometimes seen as mean and aggressive (好斗的). The study can provide information for educators who want to understand their students’ experiences and learn how to encourage positive behavior.
For the study, Nicole Brass worked with colleagues at the University of Michigan and surveyed more than 500 middle school students. The students were asked who they thought were the most well-liked among their classmates and who they thought were the most popular. And they were also asked what behavior made their classmates well-liked or popular. About half of the students were together as classmates at the same school since kindergarten (幼儿园), while the other half attended a new middle school elsewhere after kindergarten. The two groups of students liked the same type of classmates. “The kids that the two groups say they like a lot are those who try hard at school and are always nice,” Brass says.
However, when it came to the kids considered as popular, there was a huge difference between the two groups. Those students who had been together since kindergarten reported the most popular students were also kind and helpful, while the students who attended a new middle school reported the most popular students tended to be mean and aggressive. This suggests that behavior that is not positive can result in popularity in the short term before students get to know one another well.
“We often think about how friends matter a lot, but there are other factors affecting popularity. We want to discover some of these influences for anybody who works with middle school students,” Brass says. The role social media plays in who is popular and who is well-liked among middle school students was not evaluated in the recent research, but it’s an area that Brass hopes to study in the future. She believes this area has been very important in the pandemic.
32. How was the study carried out
A. By surveying the behaviors of pupils. B. By collecting teachers’ opinions of students.
C. By interviewing different groups of students. D. By observing students’ behavior in a classroom.
33. What does the result of the study tell us
A. Kind and helpful students are less welcome among old classmates.
B. Kind and helpful students can influence mean and aggressive students.
C. Mean and aggressive students easily win popularity among new students.
D. Mean and aggressive students have never been popular since kindergarten.
34. Which group might benefit greatly from the study
A. Parents. B. Doctors. C. Scientists. D. Teachers.
35. What does the underlined phrase “this area” in the last paragraph refer to
A. The practical use of the result of the new study.
B. The role social media plays in students’ popularity.
C. The effect of students’ behavior on their popularity.
D. The influences for whoever works with middle school students.
【答案】32. C 33. C 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了一项新的研究发现,在同学中最受欢迎的学生是那些学习好、乐于助人、善良的学生。另一方面,他们认为最受欢迎的同学有时被认为是刻薄和好斗的。这项研究可以为那些想要了解学生经历并学习如何鼓励积极行为的教育工作者提供信息。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“For the study, Nicole Brass worked with colleagues at the University of Michigan and surveyed more than 500 middle school students.(在这项研究中,妮可·布拉斯与密歇根大学的同事一起调查了500多名中学生)”以及““The kids that the two groups say they like a lot are those who try hard at school and are always nice,” Brass says.(布拉斯说:“这两个群体都说他们非常喜欢那些在学校努力学习、总是很好的孩子。”)”可知,这项研究通过采访不同的学生群体进行。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“On the other hand, the classmates they considered the most popular were sometimes seen as mean and aggressive (好斗的).(另一方面,他们认为最受欢迎的同学有时被认为是刻薄和好斗的)”可知,研究结果告诉我们刻薄好斗的学生很容易受到新生的欢迎。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The study can provide information for educators who want to understand their students’ experiences and learn how to encourage positive behavior.(这项研究可以为那些想要了解学生经历并学习如何鼓励积极行为的教育工作者提供信息)”可知,老师可能会从这项研究中受益匪浅。故选D。
【35题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“The role social media plays in who is popular and who is well-liked among middle school students was not evaluated in the recent research, but it’s an area that Brass hopes to study in the future. (最近的研究没有评估社交媒体在中学生中谁受欢迎、谁受欢迎方面所起的作用,但这是Brass希望在未来研究的领域)”可知,Brass认为“社交媒体对学生受欢迎的影响”这一领域在大流行中非常重要。故划线词指的是“社交媒体对学生受欢迎的影响”。故选B。
