New York city is a wonderful place for a family visit at any time of the year. Here is a list of great things to see and do with your family.
American Museum of Natural History
All ages. Who doesn’t love to see dinosaur bones or a life-sized model of a blue whale? The American Museum of Natural History offers visitors wonderful exhibits where you can explore science and the natural world up close. Only after visiting with my own kids did I realize that it offers all the excitement of a zoo without the difficulty of finding them in the wild.
Bronx Zoo
All ages. If you have got little ones, the Children’s Zoo is great fun with lots of hands-on and close-up experiences. Kids of all ages enjoy the Bug Carousel and the Asia Monorial offers wildlife viewing while you rest your feet—a welcome break since the zoo is huge.
Lower East Side Tenement Museum
Age 5+. Experience some of New York City’s rich history at the Lower East Side Tenement Museum, where children and their families can tour an apartment building and learn about the families that called it home. Seeing how families lived in these small apartments is sure to make them appreciate the conveniences of modern life.
Top of the Rock
All ages. Enjoy a bird’s-eye view of New York City from it! Although it’s not as well-known as the Empire State Building, Top of the Rock lets you see the Empire State Building, as well as Central Park from its three floors of indoor and outdoor observation areas. By buying tickets in advance,you can avoid most of the waiting associated with enjoying a skyline view.

The Victorian artist William Morris was born 182 years ago. Most well known for his revolution of textile (纺织品)art,Morris was a painter, poet and a socialist reformer. His famous prints are still seen in wallpapers, cushions and curtains across the UK. Among the works,The Strawberry Thief reflects mainly the artist’s showman qualities.
Bom to an upper-middle class family in Walthamstow, London,Morris’ strangeness was apparent very early on,earning him the nickname “Crab” while studying at boarding school. As in later life,the young Morris was inspired by visiting prehistoric sites and admiring the architecture and artwork of medieval churches.
Morris founded the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) in 1877 in response to the destruction of original features of historical buildings in the name of refurbishment. SPAB still operates today,teaching the public and professional restorers how to correctly repair historic buildings.
Setting up the decorative arts company Morris,Marshall,Faulkner & Co in 1861, Morris studied and re-introduced traditional methods of dyeing and hand printing textiles while also selling bricks,stained glass, furniture and home furnishing to the growing middle classes.
The contradiction became apparent as some of his most devoted sponsors were rich industrialists who stood for everything his love of the romantic medieval past and socialist beliefs stood against.
5. What do the public think of Morris’s The Strawberry Thief?
A. A successful poem. B. One of the best curtains.
C. One of his masterpieces. D. The best creation for wallpapers.
6. What does the underlined word “refurbishment” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A, Uncertain future. B. Repair work.
C. Determination. D. Tradition.
7. Why did people call Morris “Grab”?
A. He was quite strange. B. He was always humorous.
C. He created great artworks. D. He inspired other artists.
8. What is people’s view about the traditional arts of dyeing and textile production?
A. Consistent. B. Pessimistic. C. Optimistic. D. Contradictory.
C
If you plan to stay at a hostel (招待所),you,re probably on a budget They’re generally cheaper than hotels and have the added benefit of providing free facilities such as a kitchen, laundry and Internet service. It’s an excellent cash saver. I,ve stayed in many hostels around the world and I continually use the tips below to keep the wallet full:
Eiyoy a free breakfast
I don’t eat until just before 10 am so I can combine breakfast and lunch together to save some money. I,ve found the breakfast offerings quite good when travelling, so fill yourself up on the free breakfast so you needn’t think about lunch.
Use the kitchen facilities
Any hostel should have a kitchen available to its guests. If you need to save some cash, stop eating out. Go to the local market, buy some delicious local ingredients and make yourself a lovely home cooked meal.
Ask the front desk for tips
In most cases people working at the front desk will be a local and if not,they would have been living there long enough to know all the local deals. Pick their brain to find out the best and cheapest places to eat and drink and also find out the best trips to go on.
Drink and eat at the hostel bar
It’s a hostel, so they know their customers are travelling on a budget so their bar prices should show this. Most hostels have food and drink specials on most nights to draw the hungry crowds.
Use the free Internet
If you cannot have access to free WiFi in your room you can have access to free WiFi in the common area or kitchen. Having free WiFi is important as you can save money by making cheap international calls online.
9. What is the text mainly about?
A, How to book a proper hostel. B. How to avoid cheats in a hostel.
C. How to enjoy meals in a hostel. D. How to save money in a hostel.
10. To save money for travelling,the author_•
A. seldom travels abroad B. often eats out with friends
C. often has two meals every day D. doesn’t fall asleep until the morning
11. What can we learn about people working at the front desk?

The idea of having a part car,part plane,part drone (无人飞机)parked outside your home may not be as unlikely as it seems. There really aren’t any technological difficulties to this.
We are going to have personal air vehicles that are both cars and planes, at least that’s Missy Cummings’ vision of the future. It’s basically the intersection (交叉点)of a drone with a robotic car,so that your plane is also your car,but the quick development of technology is that you are actually driving neither.
Drones have a negative image in the media, says Cummings,because they are basically seen as spy cameras. But most people don’t realize that when they are on a plane they are effectively travelling on a drone. The fly-by-wire technology that exists on all Airbus and many Boeing craft is the exact same technology that exists on drones.
The reason why drones are the answer to the future lies in the truth that we are terrible drivers. Humans have a half-second lag (滞后)in almost any quick response that they need to have. Even a half-second delay can mean the difference between life and death, and computers and automated systems don’t have that.
So, our transportation network of the future, both on the ground and in the air, will actually be safer when we turn it over to computers.
There really aren’t any technological difficulties to this idea. The biggest difficulties we have are psychological and cultural,in terms of giving up the car. But no new tech needs to be developed to have your own personal flying car. What we have to do is improve production and reduce manufacturing costs.
People should be excited about this: it promises much in terms of safer travel, and in parts of the world where the road and air networks are poor, people will be able to get the goods and services they need
So,when we look at globalizing this concept of personal air vehicles,it means we will see the quality of life improve dramatically for everyone around the world
13. Most people don’t know that_.
A. they can drive a flying car
B. drones are actually spy cameras
C. planes are much safer than flying cars
D. the technology on drones is used on planes
14. What makes drones the best choice in the future according to the author?
A. Their low costs. B. Their high speed.
C. Their quick response. D. Their amazing comfort.
15. What may probably prevent the popularity of flying cars in the future?
A, Their being expensive. B. People’s not accepting the idea.
C. Lacking advanced technology. D. People’s failing to improve production.

The best kind of travel helps you truly get to know your destination. If you want to have a real experience of your destination, there’s no better way than to meet the people who live there. 16
Join a language exchange website. Before I went to Bogota,Colombia,I joined a few language exchange websites in hopes of finding someone there who would like to help with their English (and would help me with my Spanish). 17 And I maybe get some advice about local culture and hot spots. I was lucky and met a very kind,generous woman around my age who not only showed me her version of Bogota, she went well out of her way to pick me up from the airport, too,and we are still friends.
Rent an apartment from a local. 18 Rent an apartment or room from someone you think you would get along with based on their profile (人物简介)• This works best when you’re actually renting someone’s home,rather than a company listing vacant apartments intended for travelers,and even better if you rent only a single room and your host continues living there during your stay. You can also try surfing. Some even say that this site is just as good as any other at finding language exchange conversation partners!
19 There’s an entire marketplace online for finding and booking unique experiences led by people in popular travel destinations around the world. 20 It has guides offering experiences like midnight street food tours, hosted in-home meals and street art tours.
A. Get help from hotel managers.
B. Vayable is the most popular site.
C. Book a guided tour with a local insider.
D. Skip hotels and stay with a local instead
E. The persons that you travel with are to blame.
F. Here is my best advice for people who want to meet locals in their destination.
G. I figured I would get a chance to hang out with a Colombian for an hour or so.

Dear Mr Green,
I'm happy to tell you that we are going to climb the West Mountain this weekend.
The West Mountain, which lies west of the city, is 860 meters above sea level. Its beautiful scenery and steep slopes have attracted many people. That is why tourists to our city consider it a must-see. On the top of the mountain, you can have a good view of the city.
We sincerely invite you to climb the mountain with us. We’ll gather at the school gate at seven on Saturday morning. It will take us half an hour to reach the foot of the mountain and we will make it to the top within 80 minutes. Please take a bottle of water with you and wear strong shoes.
Yours, Li Hua
