But with so many good places to visit in this world, fears that hold you back are stopping you from wonderful experiences more than they are protecting you. Not being able to communicate can not only be worrying, but sometimes it can even be a bit scary. But dont let a fear of failing to speak the foreign language inhibit you. First, try to learn a few words ahead of time, like please, thank you, hello, goodbye. This will go a long way in showing the locals youre trying. A phrasebook can help, but remember that you may not understand the reply you get.Second, write down the hotel you chose, and any places of interest youre planning on visiting. It helps to show a taxi driver or someone youre asking directions from if you have it written down since its possible that you wont pronounce it correctly.Third, one of the few words I find to be common is “toilet”. In the US people often ask where to find the bathroom or restroom, but thats not so easily understood for someone whose native language (母语) isnt English. But even in the middle of Southeast Asia, people understand the word toilet.Lastly, try drawing. Andy and I were in a taxi in Izmir, Turkey trying to get to the castle, but the driver didnt know what we were saying. So Andy quickly drew a castle. The driver laughed and nodded, and then brought us to the castle.24. What does the underlined word “inhibit” in the first paragraph mean?A. Hurt. B. Change. C. Prevent. D. Protect.25.

What does the author try to do through the text?A. Reduce our fear of learning a foreign language.B. Teach us how to learn a foreign language abroad.C. Show us how to ask for help in foreign countries.D. Tell us how to communicate when we tour abroad.C “We give our girls the power to believe in themselves, go to college, and become tomorrows leaders,”says Felicia Gibson Jaycox, the founder (创立者) and chief executive officer of The Power of You Teens (POYT). The organization is based in Harlem, a historic African-American neighborhood in New York City.Founded in 2014, POYT offers educational chances and positive (正面的) role models for teenage girls growing up in Harlem. These“Power Girls”take part in dance, summer camp, and STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), among other programs. The purpose, according to the group, is to empower teenage girls to help them“dream big and to inspire (激励) them to achieve the most that they are capable of.”POYT held its sixth yearly Empowerment Event in the fall of 2019 in New York City. The theme of “Girl Boss” inspired girls to show their inner boss spirit. Miss Teen USA Kaliegh Garris was the keynote speaker.Kaliegh said that she and other beauty competition winners are helping to reshape traditional images of beauty and showing that women of color are not just beautiful they also are driven, wise women whom little girls can look up to.I asked Ashley McFarlin Buie, POYT co-director, what inspired founder and CEO Felicia Gibson to start the organization. Gibson saw theplightthat girls of color are in. For some historical reasons, many girls of color are growing up in terrible neighborhoods. They seldom see people like themselves showed positively in movies, books, TV shows, and other media.“Powerful girls grow up to be dependable and confident women, preparing for their futures as creative leaders,” Buie said. POYT centers on saving the mind, body, and spirit of Black girls through love and support, she added.What do the girls get out of the group?“We offer chances,”Buie said,“to break barriers (屏障).”27.

What is the best title for this text?A. Dream big B. Power GirlsC. Teenage PowerD. Breaking barriersCPeople traveling long distances frequently have to decide whether they would prefer to go by land, sea, or air. Hardly can anyone positively enjoy sitting in a train for more than a few hours.Train carriages soon get crowded.Reading is only a partial solution,for the monotonous (单调的) rhythm of the wheels clicking on the rails soon makes you sleep.Inevitably you arrive at your destination almost exhausted.Long car journeys are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible even to read.On motorways you can, at least, travel fairly safely at high speed, but more often than not, the greater span of the journey is spent on narrow, uneven roads which are crowded with traffic.By comparison, trips by sea offer a great variety of civilized comforts.You can stretch your legs on the broad decks, play games, swim, meet interesting people and enjoy good foodalways assuming, of course, that the sea is calm.If it is not and you are likely to get seasick, no form of transport could be worse.Even if you travel in ideal weather, sea journeys take a long time.Relatively few people are prepared to sacrifice up to a third of their holidays for the pleasure of traveling on a ship.Airplanes have the reputation of being dangerous and a little expensive.But nothing can match them for speed and comfort.Traveling at a height of 30,000 feet and at over 500 miles an hour is a pleasant experience.For a few hours, you settle back in a deep armchair to enjoy the flight.The real relaxation can be a free film show and some other services.An airplane also offers you an unusual and breathtaking view of the world.You really see the shape of the land.If the landscape is hidden from the view, you can enjoy the extraordinary sight of unbroken cloud plains that stretch on for miles before you, while the sun shines brilliantly in a clear sky.The journey is so smooth that there is nothing to prevent you from reading or sleeping.However, you decide to spend your time, one thing is certain: you will arrive at your destination fresh and untired.31.The author indicates that reading can help lessen _.Athe boredom of being in the trainBthe tiresome clicking of the wheelsCthe sleeplessness during the journeyDthe poor atmosphere of the carriages32What can we learn about the long distance journey by car? _AIt is safe because the car usually goes at high speed.BIt is unpleasant because reading is quite impossible.CIt is exhausting because you seldom manage to sleep.DIt is dangerous because the traffic is always too busy.33.Traveling by air is quite different from traveling by other means because _.Atraveling by air is not so tiring as the othersBtraveling by air brings more fun than the othersCtraveling by air is much more expensive than the othersDtraveling by air offers more time for sleep than the others34Whats the purpose of writing this passage？_ATo introduce how to relax when traveling.BTo point out the best means of traveling.CTo emphasize the advantages of traveling.DTo introduce various ways of traveling.第二节 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。What makes a book a good read? It is a great question, but theres no easy answer! 35 There are so many styles and types of books. This is because people have different likes. For fun, go and read the 1-star Amazon reviews for your favorite popular book. Many people hate it and cant finish it! Does this mean the book is actually terrible? 36 Art is highly subjective (主观的). There are certainly many good books on writing and story structure, but theyre more general guides than step-by-step guides. Since books have no hidden parts (all the words are there on the page), its necessary to study the books you and others think are good reads and ask, “ 37 ”. Most serious writers have early readers who read drafts (初稿) and provide their opinions. 38 They learn which parts arent as good as they think. And then they rewrite the drafts. A good read is usually the result of many improvements of a bad one. One difficulty in writing is that it is hard to find people who can give useful opinions beyond “I like it” or “I hate it”. 39 And you have to try to be receptive to things that you dont want to hear. At the same time, be glad to make changes to a draft based on what you learned. A. Why do people like reading books? B. Maybe, it depends on your preferences.C. Why does this work the way that it does?D. You have to try to find good advice givers.E. They dont know how to produce good books. F. These writers are learning from actual readers.G. What interests one person may not work for another.第二部分 完形填空 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项For some time Ive had a church member provide me with a rose to pin on the lapel(翻领) of my suit every Sunday.
