Ready to join the party and plan a visit to O-Town? Just print out our list that suits your style.‎ Universal Orlando’s Islands of Adventure The addition of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was among the list of must-visits for theme park enthusiasts. Each of the park’s “islands” — Toon Lagoon, Jurassic Park, and The Lost Continent — has unique appeal in the form of rides and interactive attractions. (407-363-8000)‎ Gatorland It bills itself as “Orlando’s best half-day attraction”, for in a city people are limited by their time and money. Catch Gatorland’s animals and handler（驯化） shows in the afternoon. There’s a nighttime run as well, including the Gator Night Shine and various activities. Gatorland ranks as a comparative theme-park bargain. (407-855-5496)‎ Aquatica One of the city’s most unique water parks, Aquatica is a fantastical world of twisting, turning rides and sparkling white sand beaches. And if you enjoy a side of terror with your water-park fun, be sure to check out Ihu’s Breakaway Falls. This towering slide is an eight-story mind-bender of a plummet（垂直落下） that is not for the weak heart. The less exciting will still find plenty of fun splashing from one giant wave pool to another or drifting down the lazy river through a world of unusual fish. You can also watch the black-and-white Commerson’s dolphins underwater. (407-351-3600)‎ Warbird Adventures Few attractions are more hands-on historic than Warbird Adventures, which offers thrill-seekers the opportunity to fly like the hero aces of World War II in the North American T-6 Texan. Flights range from 15 minutes to an hour. A visit to the nearby Kissimmee Air Museum is a wonderful way to round out the experience. (407-870-7366)‎ ‎31 For fans of Harry Potter, there’s _____.‎ A.

D ‎ B ‎ Finally，I entered the university. Because of my careful savings，I did not have to work during the school years. Then summer came and it was time to work harder than ever. I continued working as a waitress at night，instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons. I even decided to take a class ‎ at a community college. This class at the community college saved me $650.It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.‎ ‎ During my second and third years of undergraduate schooling，I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus admissions office answering phones. This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out .The overall situation looked hopeful as I approached my senior year as long as I could make as much money as I had the previous summer. I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks，but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel. About two weeks later my mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about！One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost，but the loss of time to make money；however，I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before. The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.‎ This experience has shaped me in many important ways. The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic. Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.‎ ‎34.The writer took a class at a community college mainly because________.‎ ‎ A. she wanted to save money B. life there was relatively easy ‎ C. summer time was tiring D. it was required by the university ‎35.The writer’s major concern about the trip to Israel was that________.‎ ‎ A. her mother would not give her approval ‎ B. she would fail to get credits in Israel ‎ C. a wellpaid summer job would be lost ‎ D. $1,600 couldn’t be drawn out in time ‎36.The passage is mainly about how the writer________.‎ ‎ A. made money on the college campus ‎ B. managed to make full use of her vacation ‎ C. was forced to support herself by her mother ‎ D. was shaped by working parttime through college ‎34.A ‎35.C ‎36.D C The night before your interview, the beating of your heart is so fast. You feel anxious, nervous and uneasy. Your imagination can make you feel like that. You’re confused if you are able to drag the time to finish everything or you wish ‎ to stop it because there are a lot of “what ifs” in your mind.‎ Well, you call those feelings “interview nerves”. It’s normal for all people who have little experience to feel this. So how can you release nervousness in this situation? Actually there are some techniques to calm those anxious nerves.‎ Firstly, practice and prepare. Practice makes perfect. The more you are interviewed, the more confident you will be. If you have failed once, it doesn’t mean it’s the end of your world. Everybody has a lot of chances. All you’ve got to do is understand the reasons why you like the job.‎ Secondly, you should get your interview skills ready ahead of time. So, in terms of that, you must know the background of the company and the position that you’re applying for. Ask yourself: “Am I suitable for this kind of job? And do I have any extraordinary skills that I can show to them?” Think of some possible questions that you’re going to face and find good answers to those questions.‎ Thirdly, give only the facts and don’t tell your life story to them. Give associated answers to the questions. If they want to know about you, you could tell them something that is related to the job which you’re applying for. In addition, you may also practice an interview with another person.‎ Last but not least, find someone who could share their experience with you and help you create a realistic interview situation. Experience is a better teacher, most people say. Learn from other people’s experience. And one more thing, interview coaching actually has competitive advantages. Find a professional coach in your area. It can cost a little bit but it’s worth it for the personalized coaching that you’re going to receive.‎ ‎37. The underlined words “what ifs” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean _____.‎ A. ideas B. chances C. excuses D. questions ‎38. Why do we feel nervous and anxious before an interview according to the text?‎ A. We aren’t well prepared. B. We have no special skills.‎ C. We have failed once. D. We imagine too much.‎ ‎39. In order to make your job interview more competitive, you should _____.‎ A. learn to be more aggressive during the interview B. have a good knowledge of the background of the company C. tell interviewers all about yourself whether it is questioned or not D. ask an experienced friend to go along with you ‎40. What’s the best title for the text?‎ A. How to Prepare for Your Job Interview B. How to Get Rid of Your Fear C. What Are the “Interview Nerves”?‎ D. What to Say During an Interview ‎【答案】37. D 38.

The reason is that we are all afraid of making fools of ourselves. ___41___‎ But stop biting your finger-nails. Public speaking is easy. It’s just plain talking, and you talk all the time. Although I’m basically shy (honest!), I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years, and I can tell you that public speaking is not a “gift” like musical talent. ____42____ Here are some of the lessons I have learned:‎ Your audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas. One or two. Not ten or 20. ____43____ And if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to say, there’s no way your audience will. ____44____— how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you’re going to close.‎ When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first. ____45____ A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember.‎ The standard length of a vaudeville (杂耍) act is usually 12 minutes. If all those performers singing and dancing their hearts out couldn’t go on longer without boring the audience, what makes you think you can?‎ A. Some people are born to be good at making speeches.‎ B. Anybody who can talk can speak in public.‎ C. Try to relax yourself before making the speech.‎ D. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become.‎ E. If you can’t express in a sentence or two what you intend to get across, then your speech is not focused well enough.‎ F. When you know where you’re headed, you can choose any route to get there.‎ G. No matter how long or short your speech is, you’ve got to get your ducks in a row.‎ ‎【答案】41. D 42. B ‎ ‎43. E 44. G 45.

Here are my suggestions about your behavior in a Chinese family.‎ As far as I am concerned, helping your host family with some housework is definitely an effective approach to engaging with them. Furthermore, a warm and harmonious atmosphere can be created. When it comes to table manners, we often let the seniors eat first to show respect for them. Besides, you should avoid tapping the bowls with chopsticks, which is impolite. In fact, the best policy is “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”.‎ Looking forward to seeing you soon.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
