文章大意:这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍有着迷人的风景和怪物的可能性的尼斯湖各景点。

1 . With the attractive scenery and the possibility of a monster (怪物) sighting, Loch Ness is   the one of those rare destinations that engages everyone.

Urquhart Castle

Captured by Edward 1 in 1246, this prized castle changed hands between the Scots and English on several occasions. Though ruined today, it’s still possible to climb the Grant Tower and visit the battlements and prison cells. A cafe and visitor centre offer modern facilities in historic surroundings.

The Loch Ness Centre

For those who wish to digest the complete history of Loch Ness, this centre is particularly3 good at documenting the history of this mysterious stretch of water, including many attempts to search for Nessie, the infamous monster. It also holds curious artifacts (古器物) such as the diving suit worn by Lloyd Scott when he undertook his underwater marathon.

The Clansman Centre

At the south end of Loch Ness, this attraction uncovers the truth surrounding 18th-century family life. Audience members get the opportunity to put on Highland dress and there’s a demonstration on how weapons were used. The presentations take place within the recreated interior of a Highland house, adding atmosphere and authenticity (真实).

South Loch Ness Trail

This 36-mile route invites hikers along the quieter south side of Loch Ness, passing through three villages, and taking in the Falls of Foyers. Walkers hike a mix of minor roads and forest tracks, with highlights including Suidhe Viewpoint (a mountainous view at 1,200 feet). If it sounds too easygoing, then consider the Loch Ness 360° Trail instead for a more challenging, 80-mile route.

1. Which place best suits visitors interested in Nessie?
A.Urquhart Castle.B.The Loch Ness Centre.
C.The Clansman Centre.D.South Loch Ness Trail.
2. What do we know about the Clansman Centre?

文章大意:这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了曼谷最繁忙的旅游景点——大皇宫,并为游客提供了游览指导。

2 . Bangkok’s Grand Palace is the busiest tourist stop in the city. People keep coming because the Grand Palace could arguably be called the birthplace of Bangkok

How to Get to the Grand Palace

Making your own way to the Grand Palace in Bangkok is more enjoyable and rewarding. Moving around by river taxi is inexpensive. Additionally, you’ll have a good excuse to see the Chao Phraya River up close. Going by boat won’t make you caught in traffic jams. It will let you see beautiful river scenery!

People staying in the Khao San Road area may choose to walk (around 20 — 25 minutes) to the Grand Palace.

Opening Hours

The Grand Palace is open seven days a week from 8:30 a. m. until 3:30 p. m. Occasionally, the Grand Palace does actually close for official visits and state functions. However, this is rare. Don’t believe any driver who states the Grand Palace is closed. If the statement of closure is too convincing, confirm it by calling: +6626235500 ext.3100.

Entrance Fees

Considering that temples in Thailand are often free, the 500 baht (around $16) per person entrance fee at the Grand Palace is relatively expensive. Thai nationals do not have to pay. An audio tour can be rented for an additional 200 baht. Besides, human guides are available for hire. Choose an official guide rather than accepting someone’s offer on the outside.

Dress Standards at the Grand Palace

To show enough respect, you shouldn’t wear sleeveless shirts in any temple or state building in Thailand. But unlike many of the other temples, dress standards are strictly required at the Grand Palace.

Men must wear long trousers, women must cover legs to just above the knee.

Don’t wear shirts with religious themes or symbols of death on them.

You may be told outside that flip-flops (人字拖鞋) are unacceptable footwear.

1. What do you know about the river taxi to the Grand Palace?
A.It is the only way to get to the Grand Palace
B.It is difficult for visitors to jump on and off it.
C.It is safe, clean and affordable for most visitors.

A.They’d better call to confirm the information.
B.They should call off their trips immediately.

7 . People are always looking for lost cities and occasionally one is found: Borobudur in Indonesia, for example. But perhaps some of the places people look for never existed. Here are just a few famous mythical (传说中的)cities.

EI Dorado

EI Dorado is a story that began in 1573, when Spanish explorers found Muisca people in the mountains of what is now Colombia.

Suddenly, the island and its people were swallowed by the sea and were never seen again.

Shambhale

In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Shambhala is a mystical country that is hidden somewhere behind the Himalayas.

It is said that there is no war in Shambhala, and in the future, when the world is full of war, a huge army will come out of Shambhala, destroy the world’s bad rulers, and start a new Golden Age.
