21、Travel Tips for New Zealand

If you’re looking for some adventure in one of the amazing countries on Earth, then New Zealand is a must! 【1】! But there are a few things you should know before you head over to it.

1. Bring every kind of clothing you own

That might be a bit surprising, but we have some crazy weather here. From snow in Southland, to windy Wellington, to Auckland, you may experience four seasons in one day! You’d be forgiven for thinking that you could just bring your hot weather clothes if you’re here in the “summer months”. 【2】.

2. New Zealand beaches are amazing, but dangerous

New Zealand has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and it’s not uncommon to have a whole beach for yourself. Sadly though, I’ve seen countless tourists on the news who have underestimated (低估) our beaches and ended up having to be rescued, or worse. Though a lot of the beaches are popular destinations, make sure you read the signs or ask a local to make sure it’s safe. 【3】 You’ll soon find out that the sun in New Zealand might not be as hot, but you’ll burn a lot faster than anywhere else.

3. 【4】

Sure, there are plenty of tours that you can go on to see different parts of the country, but by hiring your own car, you’ll have the freedom of the open road. 【5】. So, getting around is much easier with your own car and you’ll be able to come and go as you please. Don’t forget to drive on the LEFT side of the road down here!

A. It really is a country like no other

B. Also remember to apply sunscreen (防晒霜)

C. You will need a car to get around

D. You will come back to New Zealand for more

E. New Zealand’s public transport is not good enough

F. But summer often doesn’t truly kick in until mid-late January, and even then it’s touch-and-go

G. If you go for a bush walk in New Zealand, your biggest danger is slipping on some rocks or getting lost

22、Criminals who try to pass off fake art as the real deal should be careful now. A new identification method could make recognizing fakes much easier. The technique allows scientists to tag paintings and other artworks with tiny pieces of DNA, which act like a signature. If an artwork missed the tag, people would immediately know it was an illegal copy.

DNA is normally found inside the cells of all living things. However, researchers at the State University of New York at Albany, who developed the tagging technique, have created DNA in a lab, whose code is just as unique as that of DNA found in nature.

The scientists would apply the engineered DNA to a small tag and place it on an artwork. Over time, the DNA in the tag would bond with the art at a molecular(分子的) level. That way, even if the tag is removed, the DNA remains. Possible buyers and sellers can use a scanner to read a DNA tag or, if the tag is missing, swab(擦拭) the artwork to test for DNA inside. Then they check the molecular marker against a database of artists to make sure the work is real.

Some famous artists have already agreed to try this high-tech way to sign their art. That’s because fakes are huge problems in the art world. It’s said that as many as two out of every five artworks sold these days are fakes. Some seem so convincing that experts are needed to prove whether they’re real or not.

Although a painting may be perfectly copied, it would be nearly impossible to copy a DNA tag. Applying the tag doesn’t harm the work itself. Even better, they each cost only about $150—an inexpensive price for a technology that could save museums, art galleries, and private collectors billions.

【1】What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?

A. How the DNA tag works.   B. How the DNA tag is made.

C. What a database is used for.   D. What can be done if the DNA tag is lost.

【2】Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the DNA tag?

A. It is affordable.   B. It can hardly be copied.

C. It can renew automatically.   D. It does no damage to the artworks.

【3】What does the underlined word “convincing” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. Authentic.   B. Elegant.   C. Attractive.   D. Complex.

【4】What might be the best title of the text?

A. Copying a DNA Tag   B. Spotting a Fake

C. The Discovery of DNA   D. A New Application of Natural DNA

23、   Concentration is important for students. 【1】. With roommates or family, incoming messages, the internet and a million others, it’s easy to lose focus. Use these tips to make a personal study place perfect for concentration.

Create your quiet space

Muting (静音) your phone and not getting distracted (分散注意力) by the internet are the most important ways. 【2】. For internet distractions, consider downloading an app that can block access to the internet and keep you on track and away from social media.

【3】

Another easy way to get distracted from your study plan is realizing you need something that you forgot outside your study space. If you’re doing work on a laptop, make sure to bring your charger because a failing battery may force you to stop studying before you’ve finished. Be sure to have all of the pens, highlighters and books you will need available.【4】.

Find the right atmosphere

【5】. Students with worksheets, equations (方程式) and practice problems would probably do better with a desk or a large table so that they can spread out and access all of their materials at the same time. Students with lots of their reading may be more comfortable on a sofa or chair where they can settle in and get comfortable while they study. Make sure the environment is best for you.

A．Bring the essentials

B．Keep things organized

C．Locate the study space that interests you

D．Not everyone has the same study style or assignments

E．Getting into the right mindset for serious studying can be difficult

F．Turn your phone on airplane mode so that texts and calls can’t distract you

G．Getting up and interrupting your thought make it really challenging to truly focus

24、Next year the U.S. National Park Service will turn 100. The 100th anniversary （周年纪念日）will be celebrated across the nation.

Sally Jewell, Secretary of the Interior of the United States, started a new program called “Find Your Park.” She said being outside helps both children and adults in today’s computer-driven world.

“In this society, where we’ve got much information at out fingertips, and things to distract（分散……注意力）our brains, there is little to distract our bodies and that’s why parks and open spaces are so important and even more important with each passing year,” Jewell said.

From beautiful lands and mountains to historical and cultural places, national parks can be found in all 50 states across the U.S. The parks had nearly 293 million visits in 2014. The Golden Gate Park in San Francisco was the most popular with 15 million visits. There are 28 different kinds of national park, and each park has an important story to tell.

Jewell has invited some famous Americans to help the anniversary. American First Lady Michelle Obama and former First Lady Laura Bush were invited to share their national park stories, because the White House is one of the country’s national parks.

Mrs. Obama encouraged “people across the country to ‘Find Your Park,’ whether it’s in your backyard, or your hometown, or in one of our beautiful national parks.”

Some well-known Americans have filmed their own personal national park stories and they can be seen on National Park Foundation website. Bill Nye, known as “The Science Guy,” and actress Bella Thorne are two of the people who have shared their personal national park stories.

The program wants the public to share park experiences and memories at FindYourPark.com. The website helps people find a park near their home, not just national parks, but local parks as well.

“It’s really all about getting people outside and moving as well as getting them to recognize（认识）what parks and public lands have to offer,” Jewell said.

【1】What’s the purpose of the program “Find Your Park”?

A. To get more people to connect with public lands.

B. To make sure people live in a healthy outdoor life.
