A book about travel is not necessarily a travel guidebook. It can simply be a book — fiction or nonfiction — about a place.‎ Find your attractive group on social media.‎ That's what Tiffany Burnette, who runs a design company in Philadelphia, does between trips. She spends time on the website's travel groups connecting with new friends and learning new travel skills.‎ Learn a language.‎ ‎“I spend 15 to 20 minutes each day working on my basic language skills so that I can at least show respect，” says Jeff Wilson, the host of “Real Rail Adventures” on PBS. “Phrases like ‘please’ ‘thank you’ counted.” Michelle Williams, who has traveled to more than 50 countries, says, “An app like Duolingo is a great way to improve your language skills before you travel.”‎ While these tools could make you a smarter traveler, only one thing is guaranteed to improve your travel quality. You have to get out of your seat. You can start your journey by visiting your travel agent from the United States Tour Operators.‎ ‎1．What can you improve after you read the passage?‎ ‎　‎ - 18 -‎ A．Ways of thinking.

As a son of workingclass Jewish immigrants from Romania, times were hard and he lived with his family in a shabby singlebedroom apartment. After graduating from high school at 16, Lieber landed a job as an assistant at Timely Comics. By the early 1940s, he was a temporary editor for the company. It was at this time that he began using his pen name — Stan Lee. In 1947, two years after returning from serving for the U．S. Army, Lee married his wife, Joan. The two began their 70year marriage and had two children.‎ In the late l950s, DC Comics breathed new life into its classic superhero and experienced a significant success with its updated version of the Flash, and later with superteam the Justice League of America.‎ To compete against DC Comics, Lee was given the task of creating their own group of superheroes. In 1961, Timely Comics changed its name into Marvel Comics after Atlas Comics, and that November saw the debut (首次亮相) of the Fantastic Four. Lee's later famous and lasting creations of comicbook superheroes included SpiderMan, the Hulk, Thor, Iron Man and the XMen.‎ Over the course of his career, Lee was an icon of Marvel Comics. As a writer and editor and, at various points, both the publisher and vice president of Marvel Comics, Lee not only introduced interesting characters to the industry, but changed the way that comic books came together. He also created a cooperative workflow between writers and artists, which became known as the “Marvel Method”. Lee received a National Medal of Arts in 2008 for his innovations that revolutionized American comic books.‎ - 18 -‎ ‎4．What do we know about Lee from Paragraph 2?‎ A．He served for the U．S.

That makes sense. All animals need sugar to live. It's the fuel that powers our cells. So it's not surprising that we're born to want the sweet stuff.‎ Sugar stores the sun's energy like a battery. After a meal, your body breaks down foods into their building blocks. It uses some sugar for energy right away. The rest get stored for the body to break down later. It's a myth that sugar makes you extremely excited, but having a sugary snack can give you a quick burst of energy. That's because the sugar in sweet foods is easy for your body to turn into fuel. When you eat other kinds of foods, like vegetables, it takes longer for your body to break the sugar down.‎ These days it's easy to find sweet snacks. Sodas, candy, cakes and even foods that seem healthy, such as yogurt, can be packed with sugar. Food makers add sugar, because they know that to humans, sweet makes everything taste better. Americans eat about 20 teaspoons of extra sugar every day. That's more than what is good for us.‎ Eating too much sugar can cause more than a stomachache. It can make people overweight, decay the teeth and even cause diabetes. However, experts aren't worried about naturally sweet foods — the problem is added sugar. So go ahead and enjoy sweet - 18 -‎ ‎ apples or even sugarrich carrots that are also full of vitamins and other good stuff.‎ Even cake is great once in a while, as long as you don't overdo it. After all, no one wants life to be dull. And your body needs its fuel!‎ ‎8．The first two paragraphs are mainly developed by ________.‎ A．cause and effect B．problem and solution C．giving examples D．making comparisons ‎9．People may be tricked into eating too much sugar because________.‎ A．no one wants life to be boring B．we're born to want the sweet stuff C．socalled healthy food can be packed with sugar D．sugar is the fuel for the plants and animals on the earth ‎10．What does the author want to stress in Paragraph 4?‎ A．We'd better say no to sweet foods.‎ B．Experts are worried about added sugar.‎ C．Eating too much sugar is bad for our health.‎ D．We'd better consume sugar from natural sources.‎ ‎11．What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A．Sugar Is Everywhere B．Sugar Brings Happiness C．Why Do We Love Sugar?‎ D．Why Does Sugar Make Us Fat?‎ D ‎[2020·哈尔滨第三中学一模]Have you ever noticed that some difficult situations tend to repeat themselves? Does it seem as if you married or dated the same kind of person several times in different bodies with different names? Have you run into the same type of boss over and over again? If you don't deal well with authority figures at home, then you will have an opportunity to deal with them out in the world.‎ You may try desperately to avoid these repeated difficult situations, which seem to have become your set patterns, but they will eventually catch up with you. The only way you can free yourself of them is to shift your perspective on them seriously and persistently. To face the challenge means you need to bravely accept the fact that something within you keeps drawing you to the same kind of persons or issues repeatedly in your life. This is not an easy task, since it means you have to change, and to change is not always easy. Staying just as you are certainly is comfortable - 18 -‎ ‎ in the familiarity, but it does not help you advance spiritually.‎ Rising to the challenge of identifying and releasing your patterns forces you to admit that the way you have been doing things isn't working. However, the good news is that by identifying and releasing your patterns, you actually learn how to change. In order to facilitate your process of change, you will need willingness and patience.‎ When struggling to make a change, ask yourself，“How willing am I, really, to make this change？” If you truly want to change, you will make a commitment to the process of it. If you absolutely hate getting stuck in traffic, chances are that you need a little work in the area of patience. And chances are that you will probably get stuck in more traffic jams than someone who has patience. It is not because the universe has a sense of humor. You just notice and care about the traffic more than someone who has patience. Remember, you just need willingness and a little patience. Once you master these, you will most likely find the challenge of identifying and releasing your patterns far less frightening.‎ ‎12．How can you get rid of repeated difficult situations in your life?‎ A．By trying your best to avoid those disappointing situations.‎ B．By taking a different attitude toward previous life.‎ C．By gathering up the courage to change your identity.‎ D．By changing your viewpoint on them with great determination.‎ ‎13．What's the author's attitude toward the idea of staying just as you are?‎ A．Disapproving. B．Skeptical.‎ C．Supportive. D．Casual.‎ ‎14．What does the underlined word “facilitate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A．Promote. B．Postpone.‎ C．Influence. D．Overlook.‎ ‎15．What is the effect of mastering willingness and patience according to the passage?‎ A．Guiding you to identify your old patterns.‎ B．Making your change become easier.‎ C．Challenging you with difficult patterns.‎ D．Arousing your inner desire to challenge yourself.‎ 第二节　(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ - 18 -‎ 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎[2020·湖北八校高三联考]In the super fast paced world we live in, happiness may not come as easily as we wish.
