16、 us.There are numerous amusement parks all over the world.A famous magazine,Amusement Today,does a survey among park lovers every year both in the US and overseas,based on which,Top 5 List of the Best Amusement Parks in the World has come out as follows:Disneyland,California Disneyland is a theme pa

17、rk in Anaheim,California,the US.More than 515 million guests have travelled to this American landmark from around the world since the park first opened to guests on July 17,1955.The park consists of many world-famous sections,such as Main Street,Adventure Land,New Orleans Square,and so on.Magic King

18、dom,Disney World,Florida Magic Kingdom is a theme park within the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista,Florida,near Orlando opened on October 1,1971.It is the most famous theme park in Florida.The parks design and attractions dont make much difference from Disneyland Park in Anaheim.EPCOT,Di

19、sney World,Florida 4 EPCOT is the second theme park built at the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando,Florida.The park opened on October 1,1982,and was named EPCOT Centre from 1982 to 1993.It was the largest Disney theme park in the world until 1998,when Disneys Animal Kingdom opened.Disney-MGM Stu

20、dios,Florida MGMs streets are the home for some great movie-themed attractions with a history of less than 30 years.With the addition of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and the Rock N Roller Coaster,the park is now home to Disney Worlds most thrilling rides.Universal Studios,Florida Go behind the

24、g is easy.If you ask anyone,none will remember how they started doing it,it just comes naturally.But what might not flow as smoothly as words,is body language.Its a whole different deal when youre using your hands,eyes or head instead of your tongue.And what makes it even more complicated is the fac

25、t that body language differs all around the world.I find it shockingly amazing how just a small finger gesture could mean one thing in the east and the completely opposite in the west.For instance,in Japan bowing is the most common greeting.It shows respect and Japanese pay a lot of attention to the

26、 details like the timing,posture and 5 movement.A bow in Japan represents sincerity,respect and graciousness.While in New Zealand Maori,the pressing of noses and foreheads is the traditional greeting.They call it hongi”,which is regarded as the breath of life.For most of us,nodding our head up and d

27、own often means agreement,but not for the Bulgarians or Greeks.In both cultures,nodding ones head up and down actually means“no”.The American goodbye wave could actually be interpreted(领会)as a“no”in many parts of Europe and Latin America.And the Italian goodbye wave would be understood in America as

28、 a“come here”and the American“come here”gesture would actually be seen as an insult(侮辱)in most of Asia.So before you travel to explore a different culture,make sure youre aware of alternate meanings for body language.We live in a world with many different cultures,so dont forget how differently one

29、hand gesture can be interpreted!34What makes body language misunderstood often?AIts wide uses.BThe background of different cultures.CIts smooth flowing.DIts difficulties in understanding.35What does the pressing of noses and foreheads mean in New Zealand?ABreath.BRespect.CGreeting.DTradition.36In wh

30、ich country does nodding mean“no”?AGreece.BAmerica.CNew Zealand.DJapan.37What can be a suitable title for the text?AThe Origin of Body Language BThe Limitation of Culture CThe Difference of Culture Around the World DBody Language Around the World C New inventions come out constantly in modern societ

31、y to make our life better.Even though using dyes（染料）to develop lenses（镜片）for glasses to correct colorblindness is not novel,these 3D-printed glasses seem to break fresh ground.Researchers at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi have made a very special set of glasses that allows colorblind people to view

32、 the world in color.The lenses of the eyewear are printed with a semi-transparent resin,which is mixed with dyes.The result is a set of lenses that can adjust colors according to what the user sees.Theres a wide range of color vision deficiencies(CVDs).The most common type of them is 6 red-green bli

33、ndness,where people cannot distinguish between both.The 3D-printed eyeglasses help block and distribute the color as the eye sees it,allowing the brain to send better signals to make out the colors.Two different dyes were used during printing one blocked the undesired wavelengths for red-green patie

34、nts and the other filtered the unwanted wavelengths for yellow-blue patients.In the test,their eyesight was effectively corrected.The research team tested their product against other commercially-available solutions.The team found that their glasses were more selective at blocking different shades.T

35、hanks to the customizable（可定制的）nature of 3D printing,the glasses can be adapted and customized to anyones face shape and degree of colorblindness.3D printing was also chosen as a means to keep the glasses smooth and comfortable on the wearers face.However,as 3D-printing ink can be poisonous,the glas

36、ses were left to dip in water for a week to test their durability.The team found afterward that there wasnt any leakage of the dyes,proving their permanence and safety.A pair of 3D-printed glasses may not sound revolutionary,but to some people with colorblindness,they could paint a whole new world i

37、n color.They will help colorblind people manage the challenges of their daily activities,making their lives easier.38.What is the purpose of the 3D-printed glasses?A.To protect eyes from harmful light.B.To correct students shortsightedness.C.To help examine peoples eye diseases.D.To assist colorblin

38、d people in making out colors.39.What does the underlined word filtered in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Extended.B.Collected.C.Removed.D.Measured.40.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.The advantages of the 3D-printed glasses.B.The commercial prospect of the 3D-printed glasses.C.The inspiratio

39、n for inventing the 3D-printed glasses.D.The potential danger of wearing the 3D-printed glasses.41.In what tone does the author talk about the 3D-printed glasses?A.Sharp.B.Doubtful.C.Optimistic.D.Humorous.7 D More and more consumers across the country are using cashless payment methods.The rapid dev

40、elopment of third-party mobile payment tools is helping to encourage cashless payments across the country,said Dong Ximiao,a researcher at the Renmin University of China.Although there were 3.4 hundred million third-party payment accounts in total in China in 2016,China is not the first country to s

41、eek a cashless society.Developed states like Sweden,Denmark and Singapore are also seeing that increase.However,the rapid development of cashless payments does not mean there are no challenges and criticisms.Alibabas Hema store has come into the spotlight recently.Media reports said that consumers c

42、ant buy goods with cash there,which would be considered illegal.Alipay and WeChat Pay,the nations two major third-party mobile payment tools,also launched campaigns to encourage more people to use cashless payment methods,which caused concerns over whether cash will soon disappear.“Some offline sell

43、ers refuse to accept cash,which influences the natural circulation（流通）of cash，”said Dong.He stressed that a cashless society would not mean that cash would completely disappear.Also its important to remember that nearly half of Chinas population who live in rural areas,especially undeveloped western

44、 regions,are unable to enjoy innovation brought by the Internet,Dong said.And when it comes to Chinas senior citizens,most of them prefer to use cash in their daily lives,he added.“Its ridiculous（荒谬的）to question digital payment tools contribution to financial development.In the long term,various pay

45、ment methods will be used by consumers,and merchants should respect consumers payment habits,”Dong noted.42.What does the underlined word“that”in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?A.Economic activity.B.A large amount of payment.C.Cashless payment.D.Development of economy.43.Why has Alibabas Hema store b

46、ecome a focus?A.It fights against illegal activities.B.Customers are not permitted to use cash there.C.It provides comprehensive services.D.It starts campaigns to encourage mobile payment.44.What is Dong Ximiaos attitude towards the payment in future?A.Various payment methods should be encouraged.8
