AAre you a volcano lover? Here is a list of some of the world’s most beautiful volcanoes that our travel agency can offer you to visit. Don’t miss them!Mount Mayon, the PhilippinesLocated about 450 km southeast of Manila on the island of Luzon, Mount Mayon is the most active volcano in the Philippines; a September 2014 eruption forced thousands to flee the area. Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns on the Albay province and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have historical good point at the Cagsawa Ruins, once an 18th Century Franciscan church that was destroyed by an 1814 eruption.Kilauea and Mauna Kea, HawallHawaii’s volcanoes are known for their active eruptions and extraordinary scenes. Mauna Kea is around one million years old, while Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has been erupting continuously since 1983. The lava falls straight into the sea, creating fantastic forms of black rocks and smoke clouds.Mount Kelimutu, IndonesiaKelimutu’s three mysterious crater lakes attract both scientists and tourists to the island of Flores in Indonesia’s East Nusa Tenggara province.

There were no art directors, no stylists, no chance for reshoots, not even any regard for lighting. In fact, most of them were taken by random tourists.My story begins when I was in New York City for a speech, and my wife took a picture of me holding my daughter on her first birthday. We’re on the corner of the 57th and 5th avenue. We happened to be back in New York exactly a year later, so we decided to take the same picture.Well you can see where this is going. Approaching my daughter’s third birthday, my wife said, “Hey, why don’t you take Sabina back to New York and make it a father-daughter trip, and continue the ceremony?” This is when we started asking passing tourists to take the picture.So these photos are far more than representatives for a single moment, or even a specific trip. They’re also ways for us to freeze time for one week in October and reflect on our times and how we change from year to year, and nor just physically, but in every way. Because while we take the same photo, our viewpoints change, and she reaches new milestones and I get to see life through her eyes, and how shecommunicates with and sees everything. This very focused time we get to spend together is something we value and expect the entire year.4.What can we know about the author from the first paragraph?A.He is fond of being photographed alone.B.He hardly ever asks strangers to take pictures of him.C.He has been interested in photography since childhood.D.He’s proud of the 15 most treasured photos taken by himself.5.Who came up with the idea of having a father-daughter trip when Sabina was 3 years old?A.

What can be the best title of the text?A. Believe it or not; photos do changeB. Photos help a family become richC. Even strangers can help take photographsD. A father-daughter bond, one photo at a timeCA castle is a type of fortified（加固的）structure built in Europe and the Middle East during the Middle Ages. This is different from a palace, which is no fortified-though there are many similarities among these types of construction. Usage of the term has varied over time and has been applied to diverse structures.The European castles originated in the 9th and 10th centuries, resulting in its land divided among nobles. These nobles built castles to control the area surrounding them, and they were both offensive and defensive structures. Although army uses are often emphasized in castle studies, the structures also served as centres of administration and symbols of power. Urban castles were used to control the local people and importanttravel routes, and rural castles were often built near farmland.Many castles were originally built from earth and wood, but had their defences supplanted later by stone. In the late 12th and early 13th centuries, scientific approaches to castle defence appeared, and could function to maximize the castle’s firepower. These changes in defence came from a mixture of castle technology. Although gunpowder was introduced to be built well into the 16th century, improved cannon（大炮）fire made them uncomfortable places to live in. As a result, true castles went into decline.From the 18th century onwards, there was a renewed interest in castles with the construction of mock （仿造的）castles, part of a romantic revival（复活）of Gothic architecture, but they had no defensive purpose.8. According to the first paragraph, we can know .A. the palace is a fortified structureB. the castle is different from the palaceC. the palace changed over timeD. the structures of the castle in different ages look the same.9. what does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A.

Castles have nothing in common with palaces.B. Castles have a history of more than 1,000 years in Europe.C. Castles were mainly used for defensive purposes after the 18th century.D. The introduction of gunpowder instantly influenced castle building in Europe.DAll those Christmas toys and books may spread ,ore than good cheer. A new study has concluded thattwo common bacteria that cause colds, ear infections, and sore throat can live for long period in the surfaces of toys, books and other child-related items, even after being cleaned.The findings just published in the journal Infection and Immunity show some bacteria continue to exist on surfaces for far longer than it has been believed.The researchers said the study suggests that additional precautions（预防措施）may be necessary to prevent infections, especially in settings such as schools, daycare centers, and hospitals. “These findings should make us more cautious about bacteria in the environment since they change our ideas about how these particular bacteria arte spread.”Said Anders Hakansson, assistant professor of microbiology and immunology in the UB School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. “Never before had any paper proved that these bacteria can survive well on various surface, including hands, and potentially spread between individuals.”S. pneumoniae（肺炎链球菌）is widespread in daycare centers and a common cause of hospital infections; Hakansson explained to us that it commonly causes sore throat and skin infections in children and adults.To reach their conclusions, the UB researchers tested the surfaces of toys in a daycare center. They found four out of five toys tested positive for S. pneumoniae and several surfaces, such as baby beds, tested positive for S. pyogenes（化脓性链球菌），even after being cleaned. The testing was done just before the center opening in the morning so it had been many hours since the last human contact.“ Beautiful colonization（细菌增值）doesn’t, by itself, cause infection but it’s a necessary first step if an infection is going to become established in a human host,” he explains, “Children, the elderly and others with weak immune systems are easily infected.”12. The first paragraph mainly tells us that the surfaces of books may .A. spread good cheerB. cause health problemsC. prevent infections sometimesD. help decrease infectious diseases13. In the new study, the researchers think that .A. people shouldn’t buy any presents for their kidsB. bacteria will not exist for so longC. bacteria on toys will be removed after being cleanedD. extra measures should be taken to avoid bacteria第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
