• 1．Asia is such a vast and diverse continent for anyone dreaming of an escape．Here are some best destinations to visit over the next 12 months．
     Xi'an，China
     Xi'an，China is supreme and then there's the biggie （重要的事物）-the Army of Terracotta Warriors，celebrating 30 years as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2017．
     Xi'an is vast，but a relaxed way of living and recent openings have boosted an already superb accommodation market．A crop of new bars and cafes are thrown in here．There's never been a better time to visit．
     South of Tokyo，Japan
     Two cities in south of Tokyo are well worth visiting．
     Yokohama is just a 20-mixinte train journey from the capital and packs considerable appeal with its bayside location，architecture，beer and tasty cuisine．
     Less than an hour from Tokyo，fantastic seaside town Kamakura's known for its surfing scene，but also offers an attractive selection of relaxed cafes and restaurants．
     Sri Lanka's Hill Country
  Sri Lanka may be "so hot right now"，but Lonely Planet recommends a different experience．
     Try getting ahead of （and away from） the pack by taking a scenic train to Sri Lanka's Hill Country for a wonderfully temperate escape from the nation's humid coasts．
     This island owns a mountainous interior that is every bit as scenic as the coast，blessed by pleasantly cool temperatures that rarely above 21℃．
     Raja Ampat，Indonesia
     "Raja" means "king" and this grand title is apparent．Packed with white-sand beaches，lush jungle and unusual mushroom-shaped small islands．Raja Ampat is a biological hotspot．
     Home to some of the richest，most diverse coral reefs on the planet-over 200 diving spots are still in a state of nature-and this，paired with a growing ecotourism （生態(tài)旅游） offering，means Raja Ampat will no doubt remain king of the islands．
  
  （1）What can visitors do in Xi'an？

  
  A．Shop in a fantastic seaside town．
  B．Appreciate diverse heritage．
  C．Enjoy mushroom-shaped small islands．
  D．Experience planting crops by themselves．

• 2．I seldom kept my things tidy and in order，while my roommate Kate was extremely organized.Each of her objects had its place，but mine always hid somewhere.She even labeled（貼標簽）everything.I always looked for everything.Over time，Kate got neater and I got messier.She would push my dirty clothing over，and I would lay my books on her tidy desk.We both got tired of each other.
     War broke out one evening.Kate came into the room.Soon，I heard her screaming，"Take your shoes away!Why under my bed!" Deafened，I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started shouting.She shouted back louder.
     The room was filled with anger.We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call.Kate answered it.From her end of the conversation，I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill.When she hung up，she quickly crawled（爬）under her covers，sobbing.Obviously，that was something she should not go through alone.All of a sudden，a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
     Slowly，I collected the pencils，took back the books，made my bed，cleaned the socks and swept the floor，even on her side.I got so busy with my work that I even didn't notice Kate had sat up.She was watching，her tears dried and her expression was such disbelief.Then，she reached out her hands to grasp mine.I looked up into her eyes.She smiled at me，"Thanks."

• 3．Las Vegas city in Nevada is built in a desert.The city may be known to the outside world for its partying.But officials have found that there are 21 square kilometers of useless grass.The grass is never laid on，played on or even stepped on.The grass is only there to look nice.
     Now，the city is asking the Nevada state legislature （立法機構） to ban useless grass.It is trying to become the first place in America to ban that kind of grass often seen between streets，in housing developments and in office parks.
     It is estimated that useless grass makes up 40% of all the grass in Las Vegas and it needs a lot of water to survive.Grass needs four times more water than dry climate plants like cactus.By tearing out the grass，the city could reduce yearly water usage by 15%.
     In 2003，the Southern Nevada Water Authority banned developers from planting grass in front of new homes.It also offered homeowners ﹩30 for each square meter of grass they tear out.But fewer people are now using the program.Water usage has increased in southern Nevada by 9% since 2019.And last year，Las Vegas set a record of 240 days without major rainfall.The Colorado River provides much of Nevada's drinking water.The river could lose more water as climate change affects it.
     Water officials in other dry cities said water usage needs to be reduced.But they fear the reaction to reforms like the ones in Las Vegas if their communities do not accept them.Cynthia Campbell is the water resources adviser for the city of Phoenix in Arizona. "There might come a point when city restrictions get too severe （苛刻的） for some residents （居民）.They'll say that is the point of no return for them，" Campbell said. "For some people，it's a pool.For some people，it's grass."
  
  （1）Why does Las Vegas city try to ban useless grass？

  
  A．To protect the local people.
  B．To beautify the city.
  C．To reduce water usage.
  D．To reduce waste.
  （2）What program was carried out in Las Vegas in 2003？

  
  A．Allowing planting grass before new houses.
  B．Encouraging the residents to tear out grass.
  C．Praising those who signed on the program.
  D．Awarding those who reduced water usage.
  （3）What is implied in Campbell's words in the last paragraph？

  
  A．Many residents won't follow the ban.
  B．Reaction to the reform will vary personally.
  C．Other measures should be taken to protect wetter.
  D．Water officials should take many factors into account.
  （4）Which of the following could be the best title for the text？

  
  A．Las Vegas Plans to Ban Useless Grass
  B．A Method Is Adopted to Save Las Vegas

      "The mall？Really，Mom？" 13-year-old Michelle asks her mother as her sister Nicole，three，looks on. "Absolutely." Patty smiles. "You girls deserve some fun，and I need to get out of the house." With dialysis（透析） treatments every five hours，Patty rarely ventures（冒險） from her Raymond，New Hampshire，home.She's also been waiting four years to receive a call-the call that would call her for the double organ transplant（移植）she so desperately needs to live-the call that could come at any time. "There，" Patty smiles. "Let's go have an adventure!"
      Before leaving，Patty phones her firefighter husband Gary.But there's no answer.Patty and her children arrive at the mall. "Whoa!" Patty laughs，forgetting in the excitement to call Gary.
      At 3：05 Gary returns to the fire house.Just as he's about to phone home to check on Patty，the phone is ringing! "We've got a match!" Patty's doctor says. "But she's got to Charlotte，North Carolina，by midnight." Gary's heart beats fast as he calls home. "Why doesn't she answer？" Gary dials again and again.
      Gary worries at the fire station.He's booked four tickets on both of the two flights to North Carolina，a 6 pm from nearby Manchester or a 7：25 pm from Boston.Where are you Patty？With still no answer，Gary hangs up and dials the police department.He and his firefighter colleagues phone local stores and malls.
      Now as Patty and her daughters go shopping，the mall loudspeakers are making an announcement.But in the crowded mall，Patty doesn't hear it.
      At 5：45 Gary realizes it's too late to make the Manchester flight.And if he doesn't find Patty soon，they won't make the Boston flight either.Patty still hasn't returned at 6：40. "Come home，Patty!" he begs，looking at the driveway.7：00.It's too late!Gary panics.Suddenly，he hears the sound of a car! "Patty!" he cries.Spotting her car pulling into the driveway，he calls the fire department. "Get that helicopter here!" he shouts. "She's home!"
  Paragraph 1：
      Patty spots Gary racing toward her，a nervous look on his face and suitcases in his hands!_________
  Paragraph 2：
      At 7：37 the plane takes off.__________
