21、It can be painful when you feel like your parents are treating your siblings (兄弟姐妹)better than you. If you feel really sad about this, the following steps can help you improve the situation.
【1】
Since we’re all unique, nobody relates to any two people in exactly the same way. Sometimes a parent might appear to favor you in some situations and favor a sibling in others. No parent can be perfect, but they should do their best to be fair. It’s normal for parents to treat each child little differently, because each kid might benefit from a slightly different approach.
Try telling your parents how you feel.
Your goal is to communicate your feelings directly without being rude.【2】For example, saying “I feel ignored ”is better than saying “you’re ignoring me.” You can also say,“I feel left out lately. Sometimes I feel like you're so busy taking care of the baby that you don’t have enough time for me.”
Ask for what you'd like to happen.
【3】This lets them know how they can try to fix the problem. Present an idea that could help. You can say,“Could you please try to show up to more of my games so that I'll feel so happy knowing you’re there to cheer me on.”
Step away if things get heated.
Maybe you or your parents will get angry. It’s hard to have a useful conversation if one or both people are too angry to think straight. If you see this happening, take a break. Do some deep breathing and step away.【4】
Remember that your parents have to make the decision to change.
Sometimes talking about your feelings is enough for them to change their behavior.【5】This typically isn’t your fault (错误). The way they react to an honest conversation says how good they are at parenting, not how good you are at being their child. You can’t change other people. You can only control your own behavior.
A.Other times it isn't.
B.Use “I” language instead of “you” language.
C.Keep in mind that every relationship is different.
D.Remember that you can always try again another day.
E.Understand the situation by talking with your siblings.
F.Tell your parents what would help you feel closer to them.
G.You may feel better if you have another conversation immediately.
22、Arouca Geopark in Portugal has announced that visitors are free to visit its record-setting bridge, the 516 Arouca Bridge. Though it’s quite high, it’s the length of the bridge that has set a record. It’s the world’s longest hanging bridge for walkers.
The bridge runs between two mountains in Arouca Geopark. The “516” in its name comes from the fact that it’s 516 meters. Until the 516 Arouca Bridge was completed, the longest hanging bridge for walkers was the 494-meter-long Charles Kuonen Bridge in Randa, Switzerland. To replace an older crossing that was damaged by falling rocks, it was opened to the public five years ago, as the website for what is now the world’s second longest hanging bridge says.
The 516 Arouca Bridge, started in May, 2018, is made mainly of metal. It cost $2.8 million and took two years to complete. However, it was not until one year later that the bridge was officially opened. It is a little scary to walk on. The sides and bottom of the bridge are built with a metal grid (网格) and it’s easy to see through it. At its highest point, the bridge is 175 meters off the ground. Far, far below is the rushing Paiva River.
Arouca Geopark is famous for its beautiful natural scenery and the many outdoor activities. Arouca’s leader, Margarida Belém, says proudly, “There’s no other bridge like this one in the world.” All of the city leaders think the bridge can attract people from all over the world for a lot of different reasons. Some might come for the scenery. Others might come to see how the bridge was built. But perhaps most will come to enjoy the safe, but scary experience of walking across. Its website describes the walk as “the most exciting 516 meters of your life”.
【1】What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Arouca Geopark.
B.The 516 Arouca Bridge.
C.The Charles Kuonen Bridge.
D.The website for the bridge.
【2】In which year was the 516 Arouca Bridge opened officially?
A.In 2018.
B.In 2019.
C.In 2020.
D.In 2021.
【3】What do the Arouca’s leaders expect of the 516 Arouca Bridge?
A.It can offer exciting experiences.
B.It can boost local tourism.
C.It can be protected well by visitors.
D.It can make walkers safer.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.World’s Longest Hanging Bridge Is Opened
B.Two Hanging Bridges Have Been Finished
C.Countries Are Eager to Build Hanging Bridges
D.Hanging Bridges Are Beneficial to Visitors

24、In 2019, the United Nations World Tourism Organization(UNWTO)reported that international travel had increased to a record 1.4 billion tourist arrivals. It predicted a 3% to 4% annual increase in coming years. That didn’t happen, of course. At the end of 2021, international tourist arrivals were 72% below pre-pandemic levels with 1 billion fewer arrivals than two years earlier. According to UNWTO’s executive director(执行长官), Zoritsa Urosevic, tourism has been seriously influenced by Covid-19 and, while countries such as China were able to switch to domestic(国内的)tourism, smaller nations such as Fiji, where tourism represents between 40% and 70% of GDP, did far worse. The pandemic put about 120 million tourism jobs at risk.
The organisation holds the opinion that by 2024 international tourism will have returned to pre-pandemic levels. If Covid’s impact improves as hoped, it will be replaced by a new virus—wanderlust. Millennials(千禧年一代), according to one survey, would rather travel than do any other thing.
Though the tourism may bring the economy back, the value of tourism depends on how you do it. In 2019, transport-related emissions(释放)from tourism were responsible for 5% of human-made global carbon dioxide emissions, according to UNWTO. Cruise ships produce 21,000 gallons of sewage(污水)per day per ship, much of it ending up in the sea.
【1】What can we know about the international travel in recent years?
A.It increased as expected based on UNWTO.
B.It decreased because of Covid-19.
C.China didn’t change the way of tourism.
D.Fiji’s tourism has got better.
【2】How does the author describe the severe influence of Covid-19 on tourism?
A.By using data.
B.By describing the process.
C.By following the time order.
D.By asking questions.
【3】What does the author mean by describing wanderlust as a new virus?
A.It would put tourism jobs at risk.
B.It would help improve the situation.
C.Many people would like to travel very much.
D.Many people would suffer from another disease.
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.The advantage of tourism.
B.The disadvantage of tourism.
C.Environmental protection.
D.Global warming.
