But that's also part of its appeal. Airfare and hotel rates are generally modest year­round in the Bahamas, but you'll have less crowds if you plan your visit for the summer or early fall. But take note: These islands' atmosphere and activities largely cater to tourists, and you'll be hard pressed to find an authentic Bahamian vibe (气氛) during your getaway.AustinWhen it comes to the best of the best, size doesn't matter. Austin may be small compared to other capital cities, but its personality is overwhelmingly large, with citizens holding fast to the city's mantra (咒语), “Keep Austin Weird.” Austin really comes to life at night; the self­proclaimed “Live Music Capital of the World” boasts numerous live music venues and one of the largest music festivals in the U. S.The City of AngelsThe City of AngelsLos Angeles needs no introduction. The traffic on the “101” will tire you out just as much as an evening at a lively West Hollywood club. And your dislike at the thick smog over the city will negate your enjoyment of a sunset overlooking Santa Monica Beach. To appreciate Los Angeles, visit the area more than once and get advice from locals.Puerto RicoPick a vacation experience you're looking for, and Puerto Rico can help. An old town with a lot of historic architectures and cobblestone streets? Look no further than Old San Juan and it's E1 Morro fortress. A beachside getaway with excellent vistas (远景) and miles of soft, white sand? A global destination with high­end shopping and exciting nightlife?21Small as it is, Austin _.Ahas heavy traffic jams and pollution Battracts tourists with its music festivalsCowns many historic buildings Dlooks nice with a sunset overlooking the Beach22In the City of Angles, what prevents you from enjoying the sunset?AThe heavy traffic on the “101”. BThe lively West Hollywood club.CSanta Monica Beach. DThe thick smoke and fog over it.23Unlike the City of Angels, Puerto Rico has _.Aa nice beach Bcolorful nightlifeCmany ancient buildings Da lot of music clubsBA few years back during the time that my aged mother was bedridden (卧床不起的), her attendant happened to be a young woman. She was caring and kind, though not trained in her profession. When we heard her personal story, our hearts sank.She was to get married to her fiancé in the near future and according to their custom the bride had to wear a valuable, colourful saree (纱丽) with gold accessories. However, this all would cost her a lot.Seeing how my parents had helped the people who worked for us when we were kids, a flash of lightning struck me. I thought if we didn't help her, who would? A couple of months passed by and her mind was only on the “big” problem and in another four months she would have to get married, only with the six months salary she had collected from us.Now it was only three months before her marriage. I had resigned from my office some months back. All accounts had been settled yet a letter arrived from my former office. The sum was enough to fulfill the girl's wedding wish.When the attendant heard my thought, she was laughing and crying at the same moment. Her eyes were sparkling. Then she bought her bridal saree. From a part of her salary she bought good clothes for her parents and her grandmother.At the end of the month her parents came to collect her. The whole family left with broad smiles. The wedding was held and the following year we received a telephone call to inform us that she had become a mother.24Which of the following statements about the attendant is TRUE?AShe was a newly­married young woman.BShe was a well­trained professional attendant.CShe was very sad because her fiancé refused to marry her.DShe had trouble in buying the necessary wedding saree.25What made the author help the attendant?AThat the author and the attendant were relatives.BThat the author had enough money at that time.CThat the attendant looked after his mother well.DThat the kindness of the author's parents affected his mind.26According to the passage, we can infer the author is _.Aselfish BdiligentCwarm­hearted Dloyal27When the attendant heard the author's idea, she was _.Aso excited that tears were in her eyes Bso grateful that she hugged the authorCafraid that she couldn't pay off the salaries Dvery surprised at the author's funny behaviourCA residential summer weight­loss camp improved fat children's health, a study about fat children's health reports. A Saint Louis University physician found the camp improved children's weight, body mass index, physical fitness and blood pressure.“When a child can communicate with others struggling with the same problem, it helps support his weight­loss effort, and he is more likely to improve both physically and psychologically，” said Nadim Kanafani, M. D， corresponding author and assistant professor of pediatrics at Saint Louis University School of Medicine.According to Kanafani, fat children struggle with their body's awkwardness in running, jumping and playing, which causes them to stop taking part in these physical activities and make unhealthy lifestyle choices. This can be changed when fat children are placed together to focus on losing weight and improving physical fitness.Kanafani tracked fat adolescents who attended a weight­loss camp. They took part in physical activities and group educational meeting covering nutrition, physical fitness and self­esteem (自尊). During their stay, the kids ate three balanced meals and two snacks per day prepared under the supervision (监督) of a nutritionist.The results showed an average weight loss of more than eight pounds and an average reduction in the BMI score of three points. Besides, participants' blood pressure dropped significantly and fitness levels improved.The weight­loss camp in the study, Camp Jump Start, used a number of proven techniques to achieve modification of diet habits, increase physical activities and provide social support for participants. These methods resulted in health benefits as well as significant increases in self­esteem. Camp founder Jean Huelsing, who is a nurse, is the lead author on the paper.28The summer weight­loss camp improved the following EXCEPT _.Achildren's height Bbody mass indexCphysical fitness Dblood pressure29What made the children in the camp more likely to improve their health?AThe guides' encouragement.BTheir parents' help.CTheir own plans to lose weight.DTheir communication with campers with the same problem.30The underlined word in Paragraph 6 most probably means “_”Anature BchanceCchange Dsuccess31What is the main idea of the passage?AWeight loss is the key to kids' mental health.BFocusing on lifestyle changes is the key to kids' health.CObese and overweight children underestimate (低估) true weight.DA summer weight­loss camp helps improve obese children's health.DWhat Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isn't a prerequisite for a modern grow­your­own lifestyle. On a mere 1/10 of an acre in Los Angeles, Loe and her family grow, can(装罐) and preserve much of the food they consume.Loe is a master food preserver, gardener and canning expert. She also operates a website, where she shares her tips and recipes, with the goal of demonstrating that everyone has the ability to control what's on their plate.Loe initially went to school to become an engineer, but she quickly learned that her enthusiasm was mainly about growing and preparing her own food. “I got into cooking my own food and started growing my own herbs (香草) and foods for that fresh flavor，” she said. Engineer by day，Loe learned cooking at night school. She ultimately purchased a small piece of land with her husband and began growing their own foods.“I teach people how to live farm­fresh without a farm，” Loe said. Through her website Loe emphasizes that “anybody can do this anywhere.” Got an apartment with a balcony (阳台)? Plant some herbs. A window? Perfect spot for growing. Start with herbs, she recommends, because “they're very forgiving.” Just a little of the herbs “can take your regular cooking to a whole new level，” she added. “I think it's a great place to start.” Then? Try growing something from a seed，she said，like a tomato or some tea.Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does. With every planted food, Loe noted, there's a moment when it's bursting with its absolute peak flavor. “I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar，” Loe said. “Canning for me is about knowing what's in your food, knowing where it comes from.”In addition to being more in touch with the food she's eating，another joy comes from passing this knowledge and this desire for good food to her children: “Influencing them and telling them your opinion on not only being careful what we eat but understanding the_bigger_picture.” she said, “that if we don't take care of the earth，no one will.”32The underlined word “prerequisite” (Paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to “_”Arecipe BsubstituteCrequirement Dchallenge33Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs?AThey are used daily. BThey are easy to grow.CThey can grow very tall. DThey can be eaten uncooked.34According to Loe, what is the benefit of canning her planted foods?AIt can preserve their best flavor. BIt can promote her online sales.CIt can better her cooking skills. DIt can improve their nutrition.35What is “the bigger picture” (Paragraph 6) that Loe wishes her children to understand?AThe knowledge about good food. BThe way to live a grow­our­own life.CThe joy of getting in touch with food. DThe responsibility to protect our earth.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。We've all been there: Just when you're getting used to your new workout routine, suddenly your knee is killing you._36_ Before injury strikes, listen to these signs that might show your body needs some time off.You're always sore (酸疼). _37_ But if you're exercising regularly, you shouldn't constantly be feeling sore. You should always give your muscles 24 to 48 hours to recover between training sessions. If you still feel sore, it's possible you're overtraining._38_ Anger, anxiety, and tiredness are also signs. It is known that exercise can make us happier because of endorphins a stress­fighting chemical in the brain. However, those endorphins are also accompanied by cortisol, a stress chemical. And when cortisol levels remain high for an extended period, they cause harm on mental health.Your heart rate is abnormal.
