A4 Popular Places to Go This WinterHarbin, ChinaChina Harbin’s winter is for the brave ones—the average temperature is 1.8°F—but those who brave the cold will be rewarded by experiencing one of the world’s largest winter festivals. This year marks the 32nd Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival (January—March), when massive frozen structures rise and are lit up, transforming the city into a winter wonderland.Lyon, FranceParis may be called the City of Light, but every December, light takes center stage in Lyon, France’s second-largest city. That’s when the annual Festival of Lights (December 5—8) takes over, with more than 70 light installations（装置）that transform the city’s streetscapes into modern works of art. The city is also home to two Christmas markets (one in La Croix-Rousse; the other at Place Carton; through December 25).Lima, PeruPeru’s capital Lima is home to the world’s highest number of cooking schools per person. Aside from its delicate dining, the city also has great cocktail bars where you can taste classic or contemporary takes on the Pisco Sour. Combine that with the oceanfront setting and temperatures in the 80s, and you’ll understand why Lima should no longer ne ignored this winter.Vermont, USWinter in Vermont means skiing and snowboarding. This year, many resorts（度假村）have greatly upgraded their snowmaking abilities as part of a $15 million statewide program that replaced many outdated snow guns with new, low-energy models. These new machines will also improve the quality of snow surfaces and lengthen the season, meaning this will be one of the best winters for skiing and riding in Vermont in recent memory.21.

However, since April, the small island of just 2,600 residents（居民）has gained worldwide fame thanks to the magical return of a beach that was washed away over three decades ago.The chain of events began in 1984 when residents of Dooagh, one of the five settlements on the island, awoke to a surprising sight: their beautiful sandy beach had been washed away by strong Atlantic storms. There were only rocks and rock pools left. For 34 years, only small amounts of sand returned to the once unspoiled shores. the area’s tourism industry slowly declined, and the handful of beachside hotels, pubs, and restaurants gradually closed as well.The, around Easter last year, something magical happened—an unusual ten-day tide blanketed the barren 300-meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand. Scientists suspect that the sand had been gathering offshore for months and was transported to the beach by the high winds and powerful waves.The locals are delighted to have their beach back, especially as it is attracting thousands of visitors wishing to witness the power of nature, with their own eyes. However, Sean Molloy, manager of Achill Tourism, cautions against going into the cold waters just yet, saying, “Because of the sand coming in, we don’t know how safe the beach is now because currents（洋流）could be changed and it’ll take a little bit of time.” He instead recommends visitors enjoy the soft sand and leave the swimming to the dolphins that frequent the area.Interestingly, this is not the first time Dooagh Beach has pulled a disappearing and reappearing act. It disappeared in the 1890s, for over 30 years, before returning in 1927. However, the locals are optimistic that this time around, the beautiful sand is here to stay.24. What has brought Achill Island worldwide attention recently?A. An unusual storm.B. The decrease in the number of residents.C. The return of its beach.D. The building of a new tourist destination.25. What happened to Dooagh in the past three decades.A. Tourism went down gradually.B. Restaurant developed slowly.C. Storms attacked frequently.D. Rock pools disappeared completely.26. What does the underlined word “barren” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Noisy.B. Soft.C. BareD. Golden.27. What should tourists avoid according to Sean Molloy?A. Spoiling the shores.B. Getting into the rock pools.C. Playing with dolphins.D. Swimming near the beaches.CI dropped out of college after my freshman year. Three years later, I quit a dead-end job and returned college. I saw school as my way out.But I quickly found myself facing the same roadblocks that had caused me to quit before: I was confused with college-level algebra and a heavy workload of reading and writing assignment. Moreover, I was unsure of my career direction. I was ready to drop out again. Then a smartly-dressed woman walked confidently to the front of my English composition class. “Look at you! Look at each and every one of you,” she said. “You’re here to change your lives for the better. And you’re going to make it!” I can’t remember the rest of the speech, but it changed the course of my college career, and my life.Mrs. Smith didn’t know me from any of the other 40 faces in her classroom, but I felt she speaking directly to me. Having trouble keeping up with the workload? Break it down into small pieces, and set up a schedule that suits you. If college algebra is too difficult, drop back to introductory college math. As for English composition, she gave us writing assignments we could relate to. “Go for the best, kid. You’re worth it,” she’d say.I graduated from that college and went on to get my bachelor’s degrees. Today, as a college instructor, each fall when I stand in front of a new class, I think of Mrs. Smith and how much teachers can affect their students. She couldn’t have known it when she gave that pep talk, but she made a huge difference in my life.28. Why did the author want to quit school again?A. He wanted to return to hid former job.B.

She helped him with algebra.C. She talked to him directly.D. She brought him courage and faith.30. What can we infer about the author?A. He learnt be a better teacher.B. He didn’t finish his college education.C. He became Mrs. Smith’s favorite student.D. He didn’t understand the writing assignments.31. What can be the best title for the text?A. Always believe in yourself.B. Never quit before trying.C. Experience is worth valuing.D. A lady changed my life in time.DFlat Holm is picturesque landmass located in Britain’s Bristol Channel. The area’s low energy needs have therefore been fulfilled using old-fashioned solar panels（板）and a diesel generator（柴油发电机）. The beautiful island is now, however, becoming increasingly popular with tourists wishing to explore the rural landscape and view the island’s seabird colonies.Though this is welcome news, meting the island’s growing energy needs without damaging its environment has a challenge. Flat Holm team leader Natalie Taylor says, “It’s really important that we have a really high functioning system. From an environmental point of view, we want to reduce the use of diesel generators so that we can have as small an ecological footprint as possible.”Fortunately, UK-based startup Renovagen had the perfect solution. The company’s Rapid Roll Solar PV system consists of flexible solar panels that can be unrolled like a carpet from a trailer（拖车）and instantly put to work. According to the company, a small panel can provide 11kw of power within two minutes.The technology is the brainchild of Renovagen’s Managing Director John Hingley, who came up with the idea after seeing something used as a backup battery for mobile devices about five years ago. In addition to being easy to unfold, the rollable panels are also more cost-effective to transport. Hingley says, “Compared with traditional rigid panels, we can fit up to 10 times the power in this size container.”The solar panel “carpets,” laid on the island in early October, are being used to provide electricity to its pub and lighthouse. In addition to providing power to remote islands like Flat Holm, Hingley hopes the Rapid Roll technology will be useful in areas affected by natural disasters. A good example is Puerto Rico, where most people have been without electricity since Hurricane Maria destroyed the power lines.32. What leads to Flat Holm’s increasing energy needs?A. Its growing number of tourists.B. Its remote location.C. The damage to its environment.D. The power system failure.33. Where does the difficulty lie to increase energy supply to Flat Holm?A. Reusing diesel generators.B. Protecting its environment.C. Abandoning old solar panels.D. Reducing transport cost.34. How do the new solar panels differ from the old ones?A. They cost less.B. They are smaller.C. They are portable.D. They are hard to operate.35. What gave Hingley inspiration of the Rapid Roll technology?A. A natural disaster.B. A similar invention.C. His life on the island.D. Traditional rigid panels.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。
