From Antigua to Zanzibar, these spots promise an incredible trip for
2020.
Antigua, Guatemala
“Antigua is worth every penny, but that doesn’t mean you’ll have to
empty your wallet,” says Hudson. There are plenty of budget-conscious
activities. It won’t cost you a coin to visit Santo Domingo del Cerro, an
outdoor sculpture park. Wanting something sweet? Head to Choco Muse.
Admission is free and so are the samples!
Odessa, Ukraine
Odessa is having a bit of a tourism boom nationwide—not that were
surprised, given its sandy beaches and pastel-colored (色彩柔和的)
buildings—but it’s still fairly under the order for international audiences. You
can also count on this port city for affordable fun. Tickets to the Odessa
Opera House start at a mere $2!
Bogota, Colombia
“Travelers on budget will find Colombia’s vast capital far more of a
bargain and every bit as fascinating,” says Hudson. “It’s free to visit Muse
de Oro and on Sundays many of the big roads are closed to accommodate
food carts, street entertainers, and pedestrians.”
Zanzibar
Zanzibar attracts vacationers with its white sand beaches, greenish-
blue tides, colorful coral reefs, and oceanfront seaside. Of course,
wandering in historic Stone Town is pretty appealing too. Either way, you
needn’t spend a penny in this amazing place. It’s also worth noting that
Jozani Forest is the only place in the world you can see endangered red
coleus monkeys.
1. Which of the following requires admission fee?
A. Choco Muse. B. Stone Town.
C. Muse de Oro. D. Odessa Opera House.
2. What is special to Zanzibar?
A. White sand beaches. B. Colorful coral reefs.
C. Red callous monkeys. D. Historic Stone Town.3. What do the four destinations have in common?
A. They are coastal cities.
B. They are inexpensive to visit.
C. They welcome street entertainers.
D. They offer sand beaches activities.

In many countries in the world, public money is mostly used for
preserving architectural heritage (遗产) in different ways. In my opinion,
these funds are being spent effectively in this way. Old buildings such as
historical buildings should be protected and turned into wonderful places for
learning and visiting so that we can gain appropriate benefits from them.
Personally speaking, using public funds for architectural heritage
preservation is accurate as the society can take numerous advantages from
this. First of all, these historical buildings, palaces, shrines (神殿)…
are striking evidences for past lives and buildings. For example, before
cameras were invented, there was no way to show how a life of a king was
during his age. However, with his castle and exhibits, researchers can
build up assumptions. The second considerable benefit of preserving
architectural heritage is for tourism. In my country, every year, Hue
welcomes thousands of visitors to its ancient capital, which contributes
greatly to the provinces income.
Among distinct types of old buildings, I suggest preserving historical
one as a studying and attraction spot. This is because, along with tourism
purpose, old houses and palaces surviving throughout time, witnessing
the country’s important events are huge material for both students and
researchers. Schools can use them for practical history lessons, which help
children to learn more effectively.
To sum up, spending public money for protecting architectural heritages
is a brilliant choice of most governments in the world. Besides, I think we
should concern more about preserving historical buildings, turn them into
visiting and learning areas in order to get the best out of them.
4. What is the authors attitude to using most public money to preserve
architectural heritage?
A. Doubtful. B. Favorable.
C. Unsupportive. D. Unclear.5. What is one of the advantages of using public funds to protect
architectural heritage?
A. Making money.
B. Gaining inspiration.
C. Preparing for future.
D. Improving the environment.
6. Why do schools use historical buildings?
A. Their materials are unique.
B. Students have an urgent demand.
C. They help increase students’ knowledge.
D. They do well to students communication skills.
7. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Ways of Architectural Heritage Protection
B. Architectural Heritage Is a Treasure of Society
C. Architectural Heritage Protection—a Wise Choice
D. Views on Using Public Money for Architectural Heritage

If you have a terminal illness and you’ve exhausted all treatment
options, you might consider hospice care (安宁疗护). Hospice care is
for people who are nearing the end of life. It can be provided for as long as
the people’s doctor and hospice care team confirm that the condition remains
life-limiting. Though many people who receive hospice care have cancer,
hospice care isn’t just for people who have cancer.
Hospice care services provide good care for a person facing a life-limiting
illness by reducing pain and addressing physical, psychological, social
and spiritual needs. It helps patients enjoy their life. Unlike other medical
care, the focus of hospice care isn’t to cure the underlying disease. It is to
support the highest quality of life possible for whatever time remains.
There is a unique benefit of hospice that allows a patient to be cared for
at a facility for a period of time, not because the patient needs it, but
because the family caregiver needs a rest in order to continue to care for his
or her loved one. Most hospice care is provided at home. However,
hospice care is also available at hospitals, nursing homes and assisted
living facilities. The hospice staff can also make regular visits to these placesto provide services. If a condition can’t be managed by the hospice care team
in a home setting, a hospital stay might be needed.
Unfortunately, some patients aren’t even referred to hospice care until
they are very close to death and therefore miss out on much of what
hospices could have offered them. Because many misconceptions about
hospices exist, as well as a general lack of awareness of their benefits and
services, many patients fail to enter a hospice at all, which leads to the
underutilization (利用不足) of this specialized form of medical care.
8. Hospice care is offered to people who ______ .
A. suffer from mental health problems
B. wishes to live longer through treatment
C. is afraid to frequently visit hospitals
D. will pass away because of incurable diseases
9. What is the main goal of hospice care?
A. To provide comfort for patients.
B. To improve family relationships.
C. To discover creative treatment methods.
D. To help patients make a good recovery.
10. According to Paragraph 3, hospice care ______ .
A. values the importance of exercise
B. can be expensive for an average family
C. reduces the burden on patients and families
D. is more effective than hospital services
11. What may be talked about following the last paragraph?
A. What hospice care includes.
B. The disadvantages of hospice care.
C. How to choose a hospice care program.
D. Common misunderstandings about hospice care.

In a major medical breakthrough, Tel Aviv University researchers have
“printed” the world’s first 3D vascularized (有血管的) engineered heart
using a patient’s own cells and biological materials. Their findings were
published on April IS in a study in Advanced Science.
“This is the first time anyone anywhere has successfully engineered and
printed an entire heart,” says Prof. Tal Dir. of Department of MaterialsScience and Engineering, who led the research for the study. “This heart is
made from human cells and patient-specific biological materials. In our
process, these materials serve as the bionics, something made of sugars
and proteins that can be used for 3D printing of complex tissue models,”
Prof. Dir. says. “People managed to 3D print the structure of a heart in the
past, but not with cells or with blood vessels (血管). Our results
demonstrate the potential of our approach for engineering personalized
tissue and organ replacement in the future.”
According to Prof. Dir., the use of “native” patient-specific materials is
important to successfully engineering tissues and organs.
The researchers are now planning on culturing the printed hearts in the
lab and “teaching them to behave” like hearts, Prof. Dir. says. They then
plan to transplant the 3D-printed heart in animal models.
“We need to develop the printed heart further,” he concludes. “The
cells need to form a pumping ability; they can currently contract, but we
need them to work together. Our hope is that we will succeed and prove our
methods efficacy and usefulness. Maybe, in ten years, there will be
organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world, and these
procedures will be conducted routinely.”
12. What does Prof. Dir. think of an early 3D-printed heart??
A. It was highly practical. B. It was too expensive.
C. It was personalized. D. It was too simple.
13. What do we know about the latest 3D-printed heart?
A. It can be cultured in the lab.
B. It can match a patient perfectly.
C. It has been transplanted in animals.
D. It has been used in hospitals.
14. What is Prof. Dirs. attitude to the development of the
printed heart?
A. Ambiguous. B. Positive.
C. Unsupportive. D. Cautious.
15. What is the authors purpose in writing the text?
A. To explain the basic principle of 3D technology.
B. To introduce a breakthrough of medical research.
C. To doubt the medical value of a new invention.
D. To prove the effectiveness of the new technology.二、阅读七选五
When we choose to worry over what we don’t possess, we actually
stand at a risk of losing whatever we already have. 1 Therefore, there
is no way we can succeed in life unless our mind is first happy and satisfied
and then yearns (渴望) for more. Here are some ways to help you to be
more grateful.
Choose to be grateful. Well, whether to complain about what you don’t
have or to be thankful for what you have is a conscious choice you make
yourself. Treasure what you have and strive for what you need next. Some
are always worrying over what they don’t have or can’t achieve in the
present. 2
Look around you. When in fear or frustration, look around yourself for
examples of patience and gratitude. 3 Observe how trees stand tall and
brave the fury of storms, rains and the ever-changing seasons.
4 Once you have the mindset to be first thankful for the life you
have, you will find hundreds of ways to do that. As you live your normal
daily routine, you will find a number of hidden opportunities to be thankful
for the bounties (奖励) you have.
Think positive to achieve positive. 5 If you keep telling yourself that
the present tough times shall pass and you are happy with what you have,
you actually get the courage to deal with the crisis.
A. Your thoughts can shape your life.
B. Look for hidden ways to be thankful.
C. Think about why you should be grateful.
D. After all, it is our mind that rules our body.
E. Helping others is just one of such examples!
F. Learn to observe how birds are grateful to nature for their food.
G. Actually, it is merely a way to waste the precious present moments.
