Compared to many island destinations, the Azores isn’t touristy, noisy, or polluted. Instead, travelers can expect to discover untouched nature, fantastic views, and charming villages with rich cultural traditions. Here are the key details you should know to begin planning your trip to the Azores.‎ Must-See Attractions Nature lovers will be thrilled to discover all of the outdoor trips available to them in the Azores, This is a main spot for hiking, diving, fishing, and whale watching. Some of the top outdoor sights to see include the calderas of Lagoa das Sete Cidades and Lagoa das Fumas and Pico Island, where you can climb the tallest mountain in Portugal. Sao Miguel is the biggest and most populated island, and there are lots of historic homes, restaurants, hotels, and shops here.‎ If You Have Time Try to visit the Pori of Angra in Terceira, which is a World Heritage Site and close to the hundreds of traditional bullfights that are held every summer.

Buses operate around the islands, but service can be infrequent and unavailable on Sundays and holidays. Cycling should only be attempted if you are in great shape because the terrain is rugged and steep.

The topic of parenthood came up. I complained about how packed my schedule was. From the minute I woke up to the minute I fell asleep, I was constantly in demand and always had someone knocking at the door. But a bit of sadness seemed to come over Kate’s face.‎ ‎ “Well, my daughter’s in San Francisco and she doesn’t seem to need me at all these days,” Kate said. It was in that moment that I realized although I might often feel in high demand, there will come a day when I will actually miss that same stress I then complained about.‎ ‎ And as our conversation continued, it turned to our children’s younger years,‎ ‎ with Kate smiling proudly, thinking of the little boy and girl she raised who are now a man and a woman. But I noticed her smile was marked with regret. She explained that she often wondered about what she could have done differently when her children were in their earlier years.‎ ‎ This got me thinking. Is regret an unfortunate footnote (注脚) to parenthood? With that in mind, I asked six older parents one question: What is your biggest regret from your early days as a parent?‎ ‎ It turned out that all of them thought they could have done it better. But, each of them also has a strong, healthy relationship with their kids. Whatever regrets their parents might have had about their upbringing, one thing is clear ------- it didn’t affect them in a meaningful way.‎ ‎ The bottom line is, we all feel like we could be doing this parenting thing better. And quite clearly, years later, we’re still going to look back and wish we tried things differently. But the past can’t be changed, and neither should it.‎ ‎ 4. What can be inferred from the first three paragraphs?‎ ‎ A. Kate had the same problem as the author's.‎ ‎ B. The two people had arranged to meet in the coffee shop.‎ ‎ C. The author went to the coffee shop to escape from the pressure around him.‎ D. Kate went to the coffee shop so no one could find her there.‎ ‎5. Why did Kate feel sad and regretful?‎ ‎ A. She and her daughter had a fight.‎ ‎ B. She hadn’t paid enough attention to her kids.‎ ‎ C. She thought that she could have done better in raising her kids.‎ D. She was disappointed with her kid’s performance.‎ ‎ 6. What did the author find when the author spoke to six older parents?‎ ‎ A. Some of the parents have a bad relationship with their kids.‎ ‎ B. He was moved by the love of these parents for their children.‎ ‎ C. These parents improved their behavior after their kids grew up.‎ ‎ D. None of the parents were completely satisfied with the way they raised their ‎ kids.‎ ‎7. What is the text mainly about?‎ ‎ A. Give more love to your kids.‎ ‎ B. Regret for the parenting can be softened by time.‎ C. Nearly all the parents have regretful parenting.‎ D. Never stop learning how to be a good parent from others.‎ C For decades,research has shown that children's book not only provide great pleasure to readers ,but they can also play an important role in children’s academic(学业上的)and social success.In 1974,researchers reported that sixth﹣grade children who had been read to form an early age developed into better readers and valued reading more than did sixth graders who had not been to ,and they expected to continue reading throughout their lives.Others have determined that the more time children spend reading literature(文学作品),the better their reading and writing abilities become.Significant increases have been found in young children's comprehension and vocabulary skills,their understanding of sentence structure and story structure as a result of their being read to form an early age ,either at home or in school. Children who have access to literature and stories in their homes have been found to learn to read more quickly,and have better attitudes toward reading.Teachers who provide time for continuous silent reading ,who share books and discuss book authors with children during the school day ,positively those children's reading outside school.And the National Assessment of Educational Progress that children who frequently read for enjoyment out of school are better readers.‎ ‎ Because children's literature is so valuable to children,it should also be valuable to their teacher.And so it's unfortunate that something that can play such an important role in children's lives is often moved into a less than important role teacher education.‎ ‎ This article discusses three important issues about the position of children's literature in teacher﹣preparation programs.They are:(1)Respect for children's literature content in teacher education.(2)The value of children's literature as ‎ a powerful educational tool.(3)Children's literature as an important literary form.‎ ‎8. The author mentions the research results in 1974 to show______.‎ A.the development of reading ability in sixth graders B.the ways of teaching children to become better readers C.the importance of early reading in children's academic growth D.the difference in reading skills between sixth graders and pre﹣school children ‎9. According to the author , better readers are those who______.‎ A.find pleasure reading in any kind of books B.perform better in reading tests in school C.get into at finding out structure of stories they read D.get into the habit of reading books for fun outside school ‎10. What is the main subject of the text?_______‎ A.Value of children's books to the development of their reading and writing ability.‎ B.Educating children at an early age is quite necessary C.Parents play an important role in children's academic growth D.Children's books are worth reading by teachers ‎11. The paragraph following the text most probably discusses______.‎ A.the publication of children's books B.the types of children's literature C.the use of children's literature in teacher education programs D.the role of children's books in children's academic development D Traveling abroad for leisure is becoming more and more popular for Chinese. The UK is high up in the list of places that the Chinese want to visit. There is a sense of mystery about the UK: it’s often the images of England’s green parks, countryside and Victorian houses that people point to as an alternative to polluted, overcrowded cities such as Beijing and Guangzhou.‎ ‎ The capital is viewed as modern and dynamic, while being filled deep with history. When asked what other images are thought of by the UK, the reply is often “the Queen, tea and Oxbridge”. So what’s stopping them actually coming? Sebastian Wood, the British ambassador in Beijing, has described the UK as a “fortress”, and while this is perhaps an exaggeration (夸张), Britain does have a reputation as a country that is harder to access.‎ ‎ The main problem for Chinese tourists is obvious. Although visa applications are now completed online, visitors are still required to visit one of 12 UK centers across the country for a face-to-face interview and fingerprinting. If you don’t live near one of these centers already, you’d have to travel some distance to get there.‎ ‎ Another problem is also to be mentioned. If travelers from China visit the UK, they also want to cover as much ground as possible. But the UK is not included in the Schengen visa, which allows access to a host of 26 European countries such as France and Germany. So it makes the former seem less worth it.‎ ‎ There is also the issue of cost:£47 for a Schengen visa, £82 for the UK. On top of this, the UK is viewed as stricter in its handling of visas compared with the rest of Europe, fed by urban legends of rejected applications. In the end, the decision comes down to one question: Is Britain worth a visit?‎ ‎12. The underlined word “fortress” in Paragraph 2 is something similar to ______. ‎ ‎ A.Castle B.apartment C. temple D. market ‎13. Which of the following statements is NOT true for the UK visa?‎ ‎ A.One must have a face-to -face interview. ‎ ‎ B.One can apply for a visa online.‎ ‎ C.No one needs to travel a long distance to get to a center.‎ D.No one can get a visa without a fingerprinting.‎ ‎14. What can a visitor do if the he gets a Schengen visa?‎ ‎ A.He can only visit the UK. B.He can visit the UK and France ‎ C.He can only visit 26 European countries. D.He can travel to any country he likes.‎ ‎15. What is the author’s attitude towards visiting the UK?‎ ‎ A.He really supports Chinese people to visit the UK.‎ ‎ B.He suggests Chinese people visit London strongly.‎ ‎ C.He believes everyone should go to see the Queen and Oxbridge D.He thinks it is troublesome to visit the UK.‎ 第二节(共5 小题;每小题2 分,共10 分)‎ 根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出正确的五个选项并填入空白处。‎ Have you ever set a goal for yourself and got excited to get working on it?

Here are the four ways to complete these goals.‎ Make yourself a priority(优先权).‎ You most likely put others before yourself. It is a wonderful thing to want to help others, but if you are putting others before your own priorities and goals, you will be quickly in a great pressure. This is a habit we have to get rid of. If we don’t care about ourselves first, we can’t be our best to help others. Take yourself seriously. ___17___‎ Make clear goals with action steps.‎ ‎___18___. Create action steps, and no matter how small you think they are, use them. It becomes a way for you to measure your progress. Don’t discount the small steps. When life gets in the way it’s so much easier to move on or pick right back up when you have these small action steps to guide you.‎ Create your own hope.‎ This is your self-talk. Make it positive and daily. You do not need permission to take action towards your goals and don’t wait for someone to give you this permission. If you need to, seek positive influencers and listen to their stories. Learn to say “No.” ___19___. This is your journey, not theirs.‎ ‎___20___‎ Have a mindset to be grateful for the things, people, and opportunities in your life. If we don’t appreciate what we have now, how would we be able to appreciate anything once we completed our goals? Each of us has our own life experiences and ‎ life struggles, which shape us into who we are. They are lessons that can either make you or break you. The choice is up to you and determines if you will be successful in achieving you goals.‎ A.
