22、Many people like to travel when they have time off from school or work. They might go to their hometown to see their family, or travel somewhere far. But not everyone does this—some people take a “staycation” instead.

A staycation is a vacation when you do not travel at all. Some people use a staycation to just stay at home, and others prefer to experience the attractions around them without traveling very far.

There are many choices for staycations. Any town or city has plenty of choices for things to do if you know where to look. If the weather is nice, you can visit the local gardens or forests for a hike. You can look online for several historic places and create your own history tours. Of course, you can also visit other attractions in the areas like museums, restaurants, bars, parks, beaches, and so on.

I had a staycation of my own over the summer. I slept in late every day. I worked on music and played video games. I wasn’t too lonely—I had my cat to play with, and I visited some of my friends around the city.

Traveling is fun from time to time. But it’s also nice to just stay home and relax. It’s also cheaper, since I don’t have to pay to travel. You can choose to do just about anything you want—or, if you want, just do nothing. There’s nothing wrong with that.

【1】Which of the following is a staycation?

A．Working overtime during vacation.

B．Staying at home for vacation.

C．Going back to hometown for vacation.

D．Traveling somewhere far during vacation.

C．Why he prefers staycations over traveling.

D．What he did during his staycation.

【4】How did the writer feel during his staycation?

A．Bored.

B．Lonely.

C．Relaxed.

D．Busy.

【5】Which of the following might the writer agree with?

A．People should spend some time alone during weekends.

B．Doing nothing at home is OK for vacation.

C．People choose to stay at home because it’s cheap.

D．Traveling is not always fun for vacation.

23、   The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB), the major construction work on the world’s cross-sea bridge, which connects Zhuhai in Guangdong Province with Hong Kong and Macao, was completed on Oct 23, 2018. Construction began in December 2009 at Zhuhai. The Y-shaped bridge starts from Lantau Island in Hong Kong with branches to Zhuhai and Macao.

More than 400000 tons of steel have been used for the 6.7 km undersea tunnel land 22.9 km bridge, enough to build 60 Eiffel Towers. British newspaper The Guardian named the mega structure ( 巨 型 建 筑 ) one of its “seven wonders of the modern world near completion.”

The bridge will cut travel time from Hong Kong to both Zhuhai and Macao from the current three hours by road or one hour by sea to a half-hour drive. It will bring people in Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong within a “one-hour living circle”, which is expected to attract more visitors to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. The bridge will not only be a transport link. “It will be a social, economic, cultural, and tourism connection ( 联 系 ) among the three areas.” said Yu Lic, deputy director of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Authority.

Su Quanke chief engineer with the administration bureau of the bridge, said the project has made history in many aspects. “With a series of world advanced anti-erosion (抗腐蚀) and earthquake-resistant measures, the bridge can be used for 120 years,” he said. “If it were not for the progress of ‘Made in China’, we couldn’t possibly complete the construction in such a short time, The China technology and China standard set by the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge will influence ( 影响) the world market.”
