The collection of 68 maps takes you through 58 countries and six continents. It is packed with illustrated information, which includes famous historical figures, local dishes, some festivals, wild animals and landmarks.‎ Maps of the United Kingdom, £17.99‎ We made Maps of the United Kingdom first available at the Stanfords store in London. Technically aimed at children, it contains lots of information and facts. It’s very well put together,‎ ‎ especially when it comes to choosing the seven famous people with a connection to their special place: Philip Pullman, for instance, is associated with Norfolk.‎ Harry Potter’s London: The Film Location Walk, £3.99‎ Harry Potter’s London is a map that covers information on three walks taken in the best of the central London locations in the hugely popular films.

Find countries’ flags of various designs.‎ B When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. Some of us even had imaginaryfriends. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities. As adults，it is still important for us to have friends.‎ True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling down. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.‎ Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.‎ Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.‎ ‎24.What is the best title for the passage?‎ A. How to Reduce Stress B. How to Make New Friends C. The Importance of Friends D. The Qualities of Good Friends ‎25.The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.‎ A. educate B. encourage C. surprise D. dislike ‎26.We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always________.‎ A. laugh at us when we're foolish B. tell us other people's secrets C. share our sadness and interests D. support us when we need help ‎27.We can learn from the passage that________.‎ A. people should make friends anytime B. friends are people who allow you to cry C. a friend helps you in many ways D. good friends are always difficult to meet C They hide in trees, hang from helicopter, and even follow people down on motorcycles—all so that they can snap a shot of a celebrity. They are paparazzi—photographers who make a living by taking pictures of the rich and famous.‎ This September, California, a state with plenty of celebrities, passed a law aimed at taking action against paparazzi. The law forbids photographers from entering private property to take pictures, from using high-tech devices to take pictures of people on private property, and from “persistently following in order to take a picture”. Violators can be fined or spend time in prison. The United State Congress is considering passing a similar law.‎ Supporters of the California law say it will protect the privacy of celebrities, whom paparazzi have been bothering for years. Opponents say the law restricts photo-journalists from doing their job.‎ Most celebrities seem to like having their pictures taken when they are in public at award shows or other events. After all, it’s free publicity. But when they’re not in public, they say, photographers should leave them alone. Yet paparazzi have been known to secretly look in windows and worse. Actor Michael J. Fox said that paparazzi have even “tried to pretend to be medical personnel at the hospital where my wife was giving birth to our son”.‎ Celebrities have as much right to their privacy as anyone else, supporters of the law state. Supporters further argue that the California law is a fair way to keep the press at bay, because the law still allows photographers to do their job. It only punishes them, supporters say, when they violate celebrities’ privacy.‎ Opponents of the law say it violates the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which guarantees that no laws will be made to limit “the freedom of speech, or of the press”. Although some people might not consider paparazzi a part of the legal press, the California law does not single out paparazzi. It applies to photographers working for any publication. Opponents of the law are also concerned about its wording. “Does ‘persistently’ mean following someone for six minutes, six seconds, or six days?” asked lawyer Douglas Mirell. The wording of the law is too vague, critics complain, and could be used to punish almost any news photographers.‎ The United States needs a free press to keep the public informed about important news, paparazzi law opponents say. Limiting the press in any way, they argue, limits the freedom of all.‎ ‎28.Which of the following will be considered illegal by the new California law?‎ A. Paparazzi hiring helicopters as a fast means of transportation.‎ B. Paparazzi rushing towards filming sites on motorcycles.‎ C. Paparazzi taking photos of famous people with high-tech cameras.‎ D. Paparazzi slipping into the house of a famous person to take a shot.‎ ‎29.Supporters of the new law believe that ____________.‎ A. privacy of famous people needs special protection B. it prevents the media from getting worse C. it gives photographers a fair way to compete D. punishment forces paparazzi to quit their job ‎30.Opponents of the new law are concerned that ____________.‎ A. some photographers will be wrongly accused B. people will not be informed of important news C. the First Amendment will be changed D. it will violate paparazzi’s privacy ‎31.What is the author’s attitude towards the new California law?‎ A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Objective. D. Skeptical.‎ D Finland is the happiest place on Earth, according to the 2018 World Happiness Report of 156 nations.‎ The report, released Wednesday by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Solutions Network, ranks the countries of the world based on six different categories of well-being: income, freedom, trust, life expectancy, generosity and social support. This year’s report also pays special attention to the happiness of each country’s immigrants.‎ The U.S. dropped four spots from 2017 and landed in 18th place, and last year’s winner, Norway, came in second place followed by Denmark, Iceland and Switzerland.‎ ‎“The top five countries all have almost equally high values for the six factors found to support happiness, and four of these countries Denmark, Switzerland, Norway and now Finland have been in first place in the six World Happiness Report rankings since the first report in 2012,” co-editor John Helliwell told CNN. “In a division with such excellent teams, changes in the top spot are to be expected.”‎ Rounding out the top 10 happiest countries was Canada in sixth place, then New Zealand, Sweden and Australia. The order of the top 10 nations changed from the 2017 list but the countries did not, according to the report. They were also 10 of the 11 top spots in the immigrant happiness category(including Mexico 24th overall, but 10th in immigration).‎ ‎“The most striking finding of the report is the remarkable consistency between the happiness of immigrants and the locally born,” Helliwell said in a statement. “Although immigrants come from countries with very different levels of happiness, their reported life evaluations resemble those of other residents in their new countries. Those who move to happier countries gain, while those who move to less happy countries lose.”‎ Other major world powers placed in significantly low spots on the list. Germany came in 15th, the UK was 19th followed by Japan in 54th place, Russia in 59th and China in 86th.‎ The report, based on surveys completed by citizen volunteers, came just under a week before World Happiness Day on March 20, when the UN declared to recognize “the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives”.‎ ‎32. The US ranked ______ in 2017.‎ A. 14 B. 10 C. 18 D. 22‎ ‎33. What is the most significant finding of the report?‎ A. That immigrants are different from residents in the country.‎ B. That immigrants come from countries with different levels of happiness.‎ C. That immigrants become happy when they leave the country.‎ D. That immigrants and locals feel the similar level of happiness.‎ ‎34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A. Happiness is no less important than any other aspect in life.‎ B. People’s happiness and well-being should be considered when it comes to policy-making.‎ C. The happiness report came under a week before World Happiness Day.‎ D. What the UN declared was beneficial to all human beings.‎ ‎35. What is the best title of the passage?‎ A. World Happiness Day B. Happiness forever pursuit C. What’s your happiness index(指数)?‎ D. The 2018 World Happiness Report 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。‎ Starting high school is a great experience for any teenager.
