Where do you usually spend your vacations, at well-known places or less-known ones Now, a growing number of young holidaymakers prefer to spend their leisure time at less-known tourist spots in China to look for unique, relaxed holiday experience. People call it “reverse tourism”.
“Man can only move one meter every ten minutes on Huangshan Mountain” became a hot topic on social media during this year’s National Day Holiday in October, a time when well-known tourist attractions like Huangshan are always overcrowded. Too many tourists usually can’t make the visitors have a good time.
Spending vacations at less-known places is also a good way to save money. The prices of plane tickets, meals, hotel stays and so on are usually high at well-known places. But at less-known ones, they are not. Famous tourist spots even often raise their prices during holidays.
Another key is that less-known places can bring the feeling of freshness. They are not as “commercial” (商业化) as developed ones and are able to provide new and natural experiences. Besides, unlike well-known spots, some unexplored places with little online exposure can give more surprises.
Many people think reverse tourism is not a bad thing. It means that visitors have more places to visit, which brings chances for people at less-known places to get more money. More importantly, reverse tourism inspires those well-known spots to improve themselves for better service.
30. What does “reverse tourism” mean according to the passage
A. A trip to experience something unique and relaxed.
B. A trip to less-known places instead of famous ones.
C. A trip to spend one’s leisure time at one’s hometown.
D. A trip for young holidaymakers to relax themselves.
31. Which are the reasons for NOT visiting well-known places
① There are usually too many people there.
② Tourists have poor choices of hotels and foods.
③ Tourists may spend more money on meals and hotel stays.
④ Tourists know these places so well that they don’t feel surprised.
A. ①②④ B. ①②③ C. ②③④ D. ①③④
32. What does the underlined word “they” refer to
A. Well-known places. B. Plane tickets, meals and hotel stays.
C. Less-known places. D. The prices of everything during a trip.
33. What is the purpose (目的) of the passage
A. To tell us something about reverse tourism.
B. To ask us to visit less-known tourist spots.
C. To help the locals make money through tourism.
D. To give a travel guide to less-known places.

In China, there are 24 solar terms. Xiaoman is the eighth one. Its name means “a little full” in Chinese. During this solar term, we begin to find small changes in the environment. In the south of China, we can find the rising water levels because of more rainy days. Around the Jiangnan area, we can also see the flowering of plants. In the north of China, Xiaoman is an important time for the spring-planted crops. The crops are growing and almost ready for harvest. So, this solar term is important to farmers.
In ancient times, people held different activities during Xiaoman. On the day of Xiaoman, farmers gathered around and rode on the waterwheels. Waterwheels were one of the most important tools for them to bring water to the fields. Also, farmers put water into their fields in the hope of a good harvest. What’s more, people believed that Xiaoman was the birthday of the Silkworm God. They would take good care of silkworms and cocoon to show their respect for the God.
Eating wild vegetables is also a tradition during Xiaoman. Bitter greens are the earliest wild vegetables. Chinese people like them. They are not tasty and a little bitter. So, it is not usual for people to plant them in their own fields. But they can help our bodies in many ways.
Xiaoman is a time with many traditions. We can enjoy both something good in nature and something simple in life. There are also great meanings behind Xiaoman. Just as the name suggests, things are almost full but not quite there yet. The best life comes from finding happiness with little things, just like a moon not fully round. Besides, it also tells us to pay attention to environmental changes and follow the rules of nature.
34. What change usually happens during Xiaoman
A. It rains more often. B. It is getting colder.
C. People begin to collect crops. D. The flowers of the bitter herbs start to fall.
35. What are the traditions during Xiaoman
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
36. What is RIGHT about bitter greens
A. Bitter greens are a kind of delicious and healthy vegetable.
B. Chinese like eating bitter greens for their good taste.
C. Eating bitter greens is a tradition during Xiaoman.
D. Farmers like to plant bitter greens in their fields.
37. According to this article, what is the deep meaning behind Xiaoman
A. People should follow the traditions of Xiaoman.
B. Best life lies in having something rich.
C. People should respect nature.
D. Things need to be full and enough.

Technology is the first power! It is a great joy and a matter of pride to see China’s high technology is brightly shining from the sky to the ground.
It is widely known that China has well-developed high-speed railway network (铁路网) in the world. Now, the country is breaking its own speed record with the CR450. The CR450 can travel at a top speed of 453 kilometers an hour. Once put into use, it will take just about 2.5 hours to travel from Beijing to Shanghai, which takes at least 4.5 hours at the moment. Even though it can travel so fast, it can also start braking (刹车) quickly, taking just 1.7 seconds, and its noise level keeps low. It creates a safe and comfortable environment for passengers. With the advantages, the CR450 shows China’s leading role and great power to the world. The AG60E is China’s self-developed lightweight two-seat electric plane. It is 6.9 meters long, 2.6 meters high and 8.6 meters wide. It is mainly designed for pilot training, flight experience, and private travel. It uses an electric power pared with the traditional plane, it doesn’t send out greenhouse gases, and its noise level is much lower. The AG60E electric plane draws the world’s attention, for it is a practice of China’s aviation industry (航空工业) towards air pollution. The AG60E is only a starting point. It is expected to become an important force to achieve green and low-carbon development in the field of aviation.
38. What is the advantage of the CR450
A. Fast and safe. B. Light and small. C. Warm and bright. D. Quiet and slow.
39. What do the CR450 and the AG60E have in common
A. Their noise level is low. B. They have been widely used.
C. They can hold many passengers. D. They can brake quickly.
40. What does the poster want to show us
A. Chinese people’s wish for green travel. B. The ways to cut down pollution in China.
C. Great achievements of China’s technology. D. China’s electric power programme.

We are facing a serious problem. The top of our world is changing twice as fast as the rest of the planet. As a result, the coastlines (海岸线) are getting worse and worse. 41 Human activity is another reason, also the most important one. Coastal pollution caused by ships and overfishing have changed coastlines, which both are human activities.
However, coastlines are necessary for both people and animals. People depend on coastal areas for travel, transportation, resources and many other things. 42 Unluckily, the coastlines are being badly polluted by humans.
There is no doubt that coastlines have brought rich resources to humans. So many fishing grounds provide delicious food. 43 However, these animals need a clean and safe environment to live in.
Why are coastlines important to animals as well Many animals live on or near the coastlines. 44 So something needs to be done to protect coastlines. Our government has made policy to stop pouring polluted water into the sea and overfishing. Meanwhile, we should balance our development needs with the number of resources. We should find a point when resources protection and development needs can both be achieved. 45 For example, rubbish must be dealt with properly.
A. We can also help in small ways.
B. But now these animals’ homes are polluted.
C. What’s more, people need some sea animals for medicine.
D. Fish and other animals also depend on these areas for food.
E. Warming is not the only reason why coastlines become worse.
