AThailand's southern beaches draw travelers with their clear water and dramatic cliffs, but there's moreto explore. For finding a road less traveled, head away from Bangkok, and far from the overly hot spots and party capitals of Phuket or Pattaya.Ban Krut for beach wanderersIn laid-back Ban Krut, travelers will find one of the cleanest and quietest stretches of white sandy beach. This sleepy seaside community, known mostly by locals, is a five- hour drive or six-hour train trip down the Gulf of Thailand. Don't miss the magnificent Wat Tang Sai, a massive, fairy tale castle-like Buddhist temple located atop Thong Chai Mountain.River Kwai for nature loversMost visitors come for the beaches, but the rivers and parks in Kanchanaburi have much to offer the off — the — beaten — track road trippers.

Just two hours from Bangkok is the bridge made famous in the book The Bridge over the River Kwai by French author, Pierre Boulle, and the 1957 Academy Award-winning film adaptation of the same name.Cave for holiday hikersTremendous hiking trails, wetlands and forests make Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park a weekend adventure worthy of topping your Thailand to-do list. The park's crown jewel is the picturesque Phraya Nakhon Cave. Outdoorsy travelers can camp in a park bungalow or opt for more luxurious accommodation in Hua Hin.Lopburi for history enthusiastsBypass the tour groups at the ancient city of Ayutthaya and head two hours north of Bangkok for a more peaceful stroll through Thai history.

The video of her remarkable transformation got tens of millions of views on China's Weibo platform alone, and quickly went viral on Western social networks as well. Since then, Yuhong has been entertaining her growing fan base with more makeup magic, turning herself into doppelgangers of celebrities like Johnny Depp and Taylor Swift, as well as Albert Einstein or Girl with aPearl Earring.We've seen makeup artists use their faces as a canvas（画布）for remarkable art before, but the degree of realism in He Yuhong's transformations is simply unheard-of. In fact, some of her projects turn out so well that they leave viewers wondering if the artist is using some sort of digital editing tool to achieve the mysterious resemblance to her inspiration.The young beauty blogger started her changeable career by turning herself into doppelgangers of celebrities, but her cause really took off when she accepted a fan's suggestion to deal with famous artworks as well. That's how her famous Mona Lisa project came to be, which she followed up with a nearly perfect reproduction of Lady with an Ermine, and then Girl with a Pearl Earring.“I love oil paintings myself," Yuyamika told Daily Mail last year. “So, when I saw the great response on the Mona Lisa video, I went on to create Lady with an Ermine to continue the Da Vinci theme. ” “Makeup artists concentrate mostly on trying to recreate the looks of celebrities. Few came up with the idea of transforming themselves into figures from oil paintings. I made it," she told the interviewer.24. Paragraphs 1 and 2 have given all the following information about He Yuhong EXCEPT .A. her birthplaceB. her unique talentC. her popularityD. her idol25. What makes He Yuhong most distinctive from her peers?A. She posted lots of photos and videos on various social media.B. She used some sort of digital editing tool in her creation.C. Her transformations bore striking resemblance to the original works.D. She rose to fame worldwide in a very short time.26. Yuhong succeeded in her career after ________ .A. she transformed herself into different celebritiesB. she had a perfect reproduction of Lady with an ErmineC. she adopted a fan's offer by copying his facial appearanceD. she recreated figures from well-known oil paintings27. Which of the following can best describe Yuyamika?A. Persistent.B. Innovative.C. Adventurous.D. Mysterious.CA growing number of smaller companies are adopting a four — day workweek. Now the results of a recent trial at Microsoft suggest it could work even for the biggest businesses.The company introduced a program this summer in Japan called the “Work Life Choice Challenge", which shut down its offices every Friday in August and gave all employees an extra day off each week. The results were promising: while the amount of time spent at work was cut dramatically, productivity—measured by sales per employee—went up by almost 40% compared to the same period of the previous year, the company said in a statement last week.In addition to reducing working hours, managers urged staff to cut down on the time they spent in meetings and responding to emails. They suggested that meetings should last no longer than 30 minutes. Employees were also encouraged to cut down on meetings altogether by using an online messaging app.The effects were widespread. More than 90% of Microsoft's 2,280 employees in Japan later said they were impacted by the new measures, according to the company. By shutting down earlier each week, the company was also able to save on other resources, such as electricity.Japan has long battled with a cruel——and in some cases, deadly——culture of overwork. The problem is so severe that the country has even coined a term for it： karoshi—death by overwork from stress-induced illnesses or severe depression.The issue attracted international attention in 2015, when an employee at Japanese advertising giantDentsu committed suicide on Christmas Day. Tokyo officials later said that the staff had worked excessive amounts of overtime. Two years later, a reporter at a Japanese broadcaster died after working punishing long hours. Her employer said she had clocked in 159 hours of overtime the month before her death.That has led businesses to start searching for solutions. Some companies have begun offering employees more flexibility, and the government has launched a campaign called ^Premium Friday", which encourages workers to leave early every last Friday of the month.28. Microsoft introduced the “Work Life Choice Challenge" program this summer by .A. holding a long-distance meeting every FridayB. giving three days off to its employees every weekC. shutting down its office areas every weekendD. organizing a corporate tour every week29. What is NOT the positive effect of the new working pattern?A. It enhances teamwork of the corporation.B. It provides employees with more flexibility.C. It saves energy for the company.D.

Being alive is of greater significance than being well-off.C. Businesses should take employees' health into account.D. Companies should open later to avoid karoshi.31. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To criticize the culture of overwork in Japan.B. To stress the importance of working less hours everyday.C. To appeal for more flexible working conditions in offices.D. To introduce a less — than — five — day workweek pattern in Japan.DFor all the technological wonders of modern medicine, from gene-editing to surgical operation, health care—with its fax machines and clipboards—is often stubbornly old-fashioned. This outdated era is slowly drawing to a close as the industry catches up with the artificial-intelligence (AI) revolution. And it is the appropriate time, argues Eric Topol, an expert in heart disease.He thinks AI will particularly serve the needs of repetitive tasks where errors arise easily, such as examining images, observing heart traces for abnormalities or turning doctors' words into patient records. It will be able to use masses of data to work out the best treatments, and improve workflows in hospitals. In short, AI is set to save time, lives and money.Much of this is imaginary—but AI is defeating people in a variety of narrow jobs for which it has been trained. Eventually it may be able to diagnose and treat a wider range of diseases. As health swallows an ever-bigger share of national wealth, greater efficiency is exactly what is needed. Otherwise, rich societies may fail to cope with the needs of aging and growing populations.However, the fear some people have is that Al will be used to deepen the assembly- line culture of modern medicine. If it gives a “gift of time" to doctors, they argue that this bonus should be used to extend consultations, rather than simply speeding throughthem more efficiently. Hopefully, Dr Topol thinks, humans would watch over the rules, rather than being replaced by them.The Hippocratic Oath （誓言）holds that there is an art to medicine as well as a science, and that “warmth, sympathy and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the chemist's drug". That is not just a cliché（老生常谈）：the patients of sympathetic physicians have been shown to recover better. Yet as the supply of human carers fails to satisfy the demand for health care, the future may involve consultations on smartphones and measurements monitored by robots. The considerately warm stethoscope（听诊器）placed gently on a patient's back may become a history of the past.32. Al is set to save time, lives and money because it can _______ .A. repeat doctors' words and instructionsB. correct doctors' errors and mistakesC. select doctors according to patients' demandsD. substitute doctors in certain fields better33. It can be inferred from the passage that ________ .A. AI will entirely substitute the jobs of doctorsB. the application of AI will discourage the assembly-line cultureC. doctors' sympathy and understanding should not be ignoredD. Al will bring warmth, sympathy and understanding to patients34. What is Dr Topol's attitude towards AI's coming into medicine?A. Concerned.B. Doubtful.C. Optimistic.D. Cautious.35. What may be the best title for the passage?A. Health care and AIB. AI and its applicationsC. Doctors and patientsD. Dr Topol and his digital medicine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。
