If you are looking for some peace on your vacation, we have some recommendations for you in the Caucasus.‎ Lake Sevan Lake Sevan is situated in the central part of Armenia, in the Gegharkumk province. It is the largest lake in Armenia, located 6,200ft above sea level. Along the lake shore, there are various accommodations such as resorts and hotels with plenty of activities to take part in such as windsurfing, swimming and sunbathing. While there, do not forget to visit one of the famous cultural monuments, the Sevanavank Monastery, and it offers a great view of the lake as well.‎ Lake Paravani Lake Paravani, located at 6,801ft above sea level, is in the south of Georgia, near the Javakheti plateau. At this level, altitude sickness can occur and it is a good idea to be prepared to adapt to it properly, or bring medication for altitude sickness. Being a volcanic lake makes for a more interesting experience. The lake is best known for fishing. Do not come home during the winter months when the lake freezes.‎ Lake Cildir Lake Cildir is located in the Ardahan province. East Turkey, near the borders of Georgia and Armenia. It is the second largest freshwater lake of ‎ Eastern Turkey, and many tourists are not aware of this beautiful attraction. Lake Cildir is surrounded by mountains of the Caucasus. The lake freezes during late November. If the winter is not extremely cold, you can try some lake activities like ice skating and ice fishing.‎ Lake Van Lake Van is the must visit of all lakes in this list. The largest lake in Turkey. Lake Van is located on the eastern shore of Turkey and is also the most accessible lake here. It’s situated at 5,380ft above sea level, and unique to lakes around the world, the water is high in salt content.‎ ‎21.

Low temperature all the year B ‎ It’s said that you don’t know a man until you walk a mile in his shoes. And you also don’t know what it’s like for older people to travel until you accompany one on a trip.‎ ‎ After flying with my elderly father from Washington, D.C., to L.A. in July, I began to realize that a companion has important tasks that can make a journey easier for older people. I booked nonstop tickets on JetBlue to avoid tiring, confusing connections, and we flew directly into small, manageable Long Beach Airport. Even though my father could walk, I arranged with the airline for wheelchair assistance, which meant we got on board first.‎ ‎ When I took him back to the airport for his return flight to Washington, I got permission from JetBlue to wait with him at the gate instead of saying goodbye at the security checkpoint. I wished he’d had a first-class seat and access to a comfortable airline club. Better yet, I wish I had flown with him both ways. As I watched the attendant wheel him to the lift that took him from the tarmac to the plane, I felt like an anxious mom sending her child to school for the first time.‎ ‎ Things can go away on a plane trip. And then there is the horrifying story about Joe and Margie. When they landed at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, a wheelchair attendant met them to help with a connection. But somehow Margie, who had Alzheimer’s disease, disappeared.‎ ‎ I didn’t need to worry about my father wandering away; at 82, his mind was sharper than mine. But his hearing was poor, so I worried about what would happen if he missed an important announcement. Fortunately, everything went just fine. Careful planning made the trip successful. ‎ ‎ Next time I travel with a senior, I’ll know better. I hope there will be a chance next time. ‎ ‎24. Why did the man buy nonstop tickets?‎ ‎ A. His father was tired of flights. B. He had important tasks to do.‎ ‎ C. He cared about his father. D. His schedule was tight.‎ ‎25. How did the author feel when seeing his father off? ‎ ‎ A. Disappointed. B. Delighted. C. Worried. D. Sad.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined part “go awry” probably mean? ‎ ‎ A. Be amused. B. Carry on as usual.‎ ‎ C. Live up to one’s expectation. D. Be away from the correct course.‎ ‎27. What can we learn from the passage?‎ ‎ A. Taking a trip does great good to seniors.‎ ‎ B. It is a pleasant experience to travel with seniors.‎ ‎ C. To have a long journey with seniors is unpractical. ‎ ‎ D. A good arrangement ensures seniors to take a nice trip.‎ ‎ C What might the future be like? Here are some predictions: things to come, things to go.‎ Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home has caused headaches for millions of Chinese. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making getting travel tickets and the journey difficult. But in 28 years, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to build more than 120,000 kilometers of railway and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020.‎ And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so it will no longer be a problem.‎ Newspapers will come to an end in 2043. In the future, digital newspapers will be sent to personal web tools through Internet. Readers can discuss topics with journalists and editors. Information will move faster.‎ Oil is running out faster than expected. But scientists have found something else for oil as fuel. Coal, natural gas, solar power, nuclear power and even water can take the place of oil as sources of energy.‎ Schools will go electronic. Computers will be important and popular among the students. Everything will be in the computer and students will not need to bring books to school. They will find information on the Internet. A computer will be the students ‘library, schoolbag and connection to the outside world. There will be robot teachers, who will check homework on computers and communicate with the students’ parents through e-mail. And school buses will be like spaceships, comfortable and safe.‎ ‎28. Why has the Spring Festival caused headaches for many Chinese?‎ A. Because it is the most important Chinese holiday.‎ B. Because it costs too much money to celebrate it.‎ C. Because the traffic is too heavy then.‎ D. Because the travel tickets are too expensive then.‎ ‎29. What is not mentioned in the passage as sources of energy .‎ A. Coal B. Wind C. Nuclear power D. Water ‎30. From the passage we can know in the future.‎ A. the Spring Festival travel may still be a problem B. 90% of the population will live in the city C. robot teachers will check homework D. oil is running out faster than expected. Unluckily, scientists haven’t found something else for oil as fuel.‎ ‎31. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?‎ A. Schools will go electronic B. Computers will be important C. There will be robot teachers D. School buses will be like spaceships D A new study, a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, finds the fitness tracker probably does not help with weight loss.‎ The devices are designed to record your physical activity. They are usually worn around the wrist, where they measure a person’s heart rate. The research team looked at two groups of individuals. The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health counseling with experts to consider the best weight-loss plan. The researchers compared this group with people who only got health counseling.‎ The study found that those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms, but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms. John Jakicic, the lead researcher, questioned the use of electronic devices for weight control in place of “effective behavioral counseling for physical activity and diet. ”‎ The study involved 470 subjects aged between 18 and 35. Some of them were overweight, while others were considered obese. Over three fourths of the subjects were women. All the subjects were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet. They had their weight measured once every six months. After six months, researchers divided the group into two parts: one continued with monthly counseling, while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker. Eighteen months later, both groups “showed significant improvements in fitness, ‎ physical activity, and diet,” with no major difference between groups. However, when it came to losing weight, the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.‎ Jakicic said, “the study’s findings are important because effective long-term treatments are needed to address America’s obesity. ” More information is needed, he added, to learn how to best use these devices to change “physical activity and diet behaviors” in adults who want to lose weight.‎ ‎32．All the subjects in the study were asked to ________.‎ A. start on a high-calorie diet B. wear a fitness tracker C. increase physical activities D. record their heart rates ‎33．Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?‎ A. Wearing fitness trackers hardly helps people lose weight.‎ B. Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight loss.‎ C. Handling obesity requires effective long-term treatments.‎ D. There are great differences in fitness between both groups.‎ ‎34．What can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?‎ A. The study went on for about two years.‎ B. More than 120 men took part in the study.‎ C. Health counseling helps lose almost 6 kilograms.‎ D. Wearing a fitness tracker is useful for keeping slim.‎ ‎35．The purpose of the text is to ________.‎ A. describe how the researchers were conducting the study B. indicate regular counseling for weight control is necessary C. convince readers to wear fitness trackers for weight control D. warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The Farmers’ Fresh Market This morning，I went to the Farmers Market in Burlington ，Vermont. I didn’t know what the Farmers Market is or how to get there.  36‎ First，I had to decide how to go there，and I chose both to walk and to take a bus. When I went，I would walk and when I came back，I would take a bus. 37　‎ Walking to the market in this city，I was surprised because every house was beautiful，and they were all arranged in good order. In Korea’s cities，most houses are not like that，and many apartments are like boxes which often screen off beautiful views like hills and mountains. Also,every road is not straight and narrow. 38‎ ‎39　It was a very small market，but a very interesting one. I don’t know why farmers go there to sell vegetables or why people go there to buy them because there are many more products in large supermarkets. 40　‎ Also ，all the things sold there were very novel. In addition to fresh food，there was homemade food and many other things such as woolen blankets，quilts ，and wooden products.‎ I wanted to buy some of them，but I didn’t need them，so I just looked at them. It was a very exciting experience.‎ A. I visited a flower stand at the market.‎ B. Anyway，I was able to find the Farmers’ Market.‎ C. So, to me, this American town was very impressive.‎ D. I decided to go early because the market is held in the morning.‎ E. I knew that it would take a long time to walk，but I wanted to see an American town.‎ F. I was attracted by the comfortable houses where they lived and the cars that they drove.‎ G. I think the reason is that the ones sold in the Farmers’ Market are fresher and cheaper.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I am a 17-year-old college student.
