On your next trip you can either visit those same cities a second time, or instead you can take a chance and w alk the streets of some cities that are a litt le bit smaller, a litt le bit less famous, but still full of European grace and charm. Here are four European cities to visit that you probably haven’t been to yet.‎ Besan con, Fran ce This hidden French city has had a long reputation for being a w ell-kept secret. It can be at once sleepy w ith few tourists but abundant galleries, restaurants, and a w onderful Be aux Arts museum w hose collection is second only to the Louvre. The city is w ound by the River Doubs and also touts (吹捧) its ow n UNESCO Wor ld Her itage S ite in the Citadel, home to several small museums and a zoo.‎ Seville, Spain For the tourist w ho is already tired of Barcelona and Madrid, Seville offers a different take ‎(意见) on Spain. Located on the Southern coast, it keeps beautiful signs of the long period of Moorish rule, now here more than in the Alcázar palace building, just one of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage S ites. Seville has over a dozen museums, tropical parkland, and probably the best tapas (餐前小吃) culture in all of Spain.‎ Ghent, Belgium Ghent is a city that looks like it should be the setting for a fairy tale. All of the typical Belg ium features abound here-w affles and beer. Every year from Saturday before July 21. Ghent hosts a ten-day festival. This music and theater festival draws almost 2 million vis itors, as the city streets transform into performance spaces for performers, buskers ( 街头 艺 人 ) and musicians.‎ Palermo, Italy Palermo is the capital c ity of Sicily, the southern island off the coast of mainland Italy. The city has an ancient history, and the various cultures that have controlled the island through the years have all left their marks on it. You can see w inding street markets, antique ( 古玩) fairs, and open air nightclubs here.‎ ‎21.Where can visitors enjoy art collections quietly?‎ A. Besancon. B. Barcelona. C. Ghent. D. Palermo.‎ ‎22.What can visitors do in Seville, Spain?‎ A. Visit antique fairs and clubs. B. Enjoy a colorful nightlife.‎ C. Explore over 20 museums.‎ D. Hunt for Moorish influences.‎ ‎23.Which country should a music and theater lover choose to visit?‎ A. France. B. Spain. C. Belgium. D. Italy.‎ ‎24.What do the four European cities have in common?‎ A. They w ere once ruled by various rulers. B. They are less famous but w orth a visit. C. Visitors can enjoy seeing performances.‎ D. They're all UNESCO World Heritage Sites.‎ B What time is it? Most people are pretty accurate in their answ er. And if you don’t know for sure, it’s very likely that you can find out. There may be a w atch on your w rist, there may be a clock on the w all, desk, or computer screen; or maybe you're riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard (仪表板).‎ Even if you don’t have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keeps its ow n beat. Humans have an internal clock that regulates ( 调节) the beating of our heart, the pace of our breathing, the discharge (排出) of chemicals w ithin our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions.‎ Time is something from w hich w e can’t escape. Even if w e ignore it, it’s still going by,‎ ticking aw ay, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. S o the main issue in using your time w ell is, “Who’s in charge?” We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or w e can take control of it and make it our ally.‎ By taking control of how you spend your time, you’ll increase your chances of becom ing a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you’ll have to spend on your outside interests.‎ The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so w e beco me slaves of a timetab le that governs every w aking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to make informed choices as to how w e use our time. Rather than letting the day go by, largely w ithout our aw areness, w hat w e are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our ow n purposes.‎ ‎25. The underlined w ord “ al l y” in Para. 3 probably means somebody or something that is .‎ A. your slave and serves you B. your supporter and helps you C. under your control and obeys you D. under your influence and follow s you ‎26. The author intends to tell us that time .‎ A. could be regulated by a timepiece such as a clock or a w atch B. could be managed by the internal clock of human bodies C. should be w ell managed for our ow n interest D. should be saved for outside interests ‎27. In the next part, the author w ould most probably discuss w ith you .‎ A. how to keep up w ith the times B. how to make up for lost time C. how to have a good time D. how to make good use of time C The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle Un iversity have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “Dr ive LAB” in order to understand the challeng es faced by older drivers and to discover w here the key stress points are.‎ Research show s that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and w ell-being among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated (隔绝) and inactive.‎ Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the New castle team are develop ing in-veh icle technologies for older drivers w hich they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.‎ These include custom-made navigation (导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe exp lains: “For many older people, particularly those liv ing alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about w ithout having to rely on others.”‎ ‎“But w e all have to accept that as w e get older our reactions slow dow n and this often results in people avo id ing any potentially challeng ing driv ing conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”‎ Dr. Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, “The Drive LAB is help ing us to understand w hat the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how w e might use technology to address these problems.‎ ‎“For example, most of us w ould expect older drivers alw ays go slow er than everyone else but surprisingly, w e found that in 30 mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so w ere more likely to break the speed lim it and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems w hich control their speed as a w ay of preventing that.‎ ‎“We hope that our w ork w ill help w ith technological solut ions (解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the w heel.”‎ ‎28.What is the purpose of the Drivel LAB?‎ A. To explore new means of transport. B. To design new types of cars.‎ C. To find out older driver’s problems.‎ D. To teach people traffic rules.‎ ‎29. Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?‎ A. It keeps them independent. B. It helps them save time.‎ C. It builds up their strength.‎ D. It cures their mental illnesses.‎ ‎30. What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?‎ A. Improve their driving skills.‎ B. Develop driver-assist technologies. C. Provide tips on repairing their cars. D. Organize regular physical checkups.‎ ‎31. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. A new Model Electric Car B. A Solution to Traffic Problem C. Driving Service for elders D. Keeping Older Drivers on the Road D On August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley saved me.‎ The previous afternoon, I played w ith my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters’ backyard. I w as enjoying my cake, w hen Heather asked me w here my sleeping bag w as. Only then did I know this party w as a sleepover. The w ord “sleep-over” to a six-year-old bed-w etter is like w hat “cancer” means to an adult. But w hat if I told them I w as a bed -w etter? At least w ith cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it.‎ I thought of a w ay to escape. I w ould explain that I needed my moth er ’s permission to spend the nights. But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen. She granted permission! Then I w ould be sleep ing in the same liv ing room as the other girls. I didn ’t bring my ow n nightdress, so Mrs. Peters offered me Heather ’s nightdress.‎ As the other gir ls drifted into their sw eet dreams, I tried to stay aw ake. “Do I need to go again? I’ll stay up to go one more time...”. Of course, I finally fell asleep.‎ The next morning, I w as the first to w ake up. I w as w arm! I lay in pan ic for w hat seemed like hours before the other girls started to w ake up. I did the only thing I could do — I pretended that the bed-w etting didn’t happen. I got up, took off Heather ’s nightdress and changed into my clothes like the other girls.‎ Mrs. Peters w alked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my w et nightdress. My heart stopped as I w atched her face burn red. “WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, w ith a look so scary. Should I answ er? And that w as w hen it happened — Mr. Peters came in and grabbed his w ife, “Elvis Presley died!”‎ The new s of the King’s death overtook Mrs. Peters, and I w as narrow ly excused. Then, w e left Peters’ together but w ithout the other girls know ing w hat had happened.‎ ‎32.
