4 . 语法填空

Have you ever traveled around the world while staying in other people’s homes for free. It might sound too good to be true. But a     1    (retire) couple from Norfolk, England have managed to do just that.

Jonathan and Julie Ashworth sold their house in 2017 and then traveled around the world while looking after other people’s houses and pets in exchange    2     free accommodation.

The Ashworths booked their first house-sitting in early 2018 and said they’d never looked back ever since. While they were initially     3    (doubt) about the idea, they tried     4    (sign) up for Trusted Housesitters,     5     owners and house-sitters leave reviews for each other. As they were new to the practice, the couple     6    (choose) to house-sit locally to build up their profiles, and with a number of positive reviews, they began to apply for house-sitting slightly    7    (far) afield.

While house-sitting might sound like a piece of cake, it’s     8    (rare) as simple as just walking the owner’s dog every day. In order to ensure they were prepared for each hous-sitting the pair generally arrived a few hours before the owners left, so that they could meet and discuss any     9    (concern).

Due to COVID-19, the couple were forced to return to the UK. They are staying in a caravan (拖车)     10     they are able to begin house-sitting again.

9 . The hardest thing about planning a big European vacation is actually narrowing down where to go—there are just so many amazing places. That's why we've put together what we think are the best cities in Europe.

AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS

Amsterdam is the kind of city that you can't help but fall in love with. It's the kind of place where you dream about moving and buying an apartment that overlooks (俯瞰) a peaceful river. It's relaxing and you get a sense that the locals have an amazing quality of free life. We love simply walking around the canals and exploring the city's neighborhoods.

BERLIN, GERMANY

Berlin is said to be “poor but charming” and we think that's a pretty good description. Actually, Berlin is becoming more expensive as its popularity grows, but it's still the top spot for Germany's artistic scene. Berlin isn't particularly pretty but it's an energetic city with cool people and cooler graffiti-covered (涂鸦) neighborhoods.

LISBON, PORTUGAL       

Lisbon is a hot destination and I doubt it will be quickly moving up in the ranks of Europe's most visited cities. Lisbon is a popular coastal city that's famous for its unique buildings and charming café culture. It's also very friendly on the wallet when compared to other Western European cities—food and lodging are both priced reasonably and attractions are about average.

FLORENCE, ITALY

Florence may be touristy but that’s no reason to ignore this birthplace of the Renaissance (文艺复兴). If you do your research, you can find plenty of excellent Italian restaurants and world-class ice cream. And, of course, the city is beautiful and home to top museums so it's a dream for art and history lovers.

1. Which city best suits people holidaying on the cheap?

A．BERLIN, GERMANY.	B．FLORENCE, ITALY.
C．LISBON, PORTUGAL.	D．AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS.

2. What do BERLIN and FLORENCE have in common?

A．They are famous for food.	B．They are attractive to artists.
C．They are cities of scenic beauty.	D．They are of political importance.

3. Where is the text probably from?

A．A news report.	B．A travel magazine.
C．A restaurant advertisement.	D．A science column.

10 . DOWN TO THE WOODS

To mark Earth Day on 22 April, consider a trip that celebrates all the natural beauty and variety of the world’s forests.

Isle of Wight

A safe bet for spotting the active red squirrel is Brighstone Forest where, in the summer, you might also hear the call of the nightjar, a bird known for its frightening call. Stay in a log cabin (原木小屋) near Calbourne and enjoy breakfast — with eggs laid on site by free-range hens from a farm. Tom’s Eco Lodges at Tapnell Farm Park has several options for families, from £900 per week, including log cabins and travelling tents.

Sweden

The vast pine forests of central Sweden are an ideal place to enjoy a true back-to-nature experience. In the daytime, you can hike, swim or canoe before returning to enjoy a campfire dinner of local ingredients. You can also set off on a guided trip for seeing large deer at dusk. Responsible Travel has a three- night eco-lodge (生态旅馆) break from £630 per adult, children (12-15) from £303, international flights not included.

Ecuador

In Ecuador’s Choco cloud forest, more than 3,000ft above sea level, follow misty trails around species of plants found nowhere else on the planet. You’ll also spot hummingbirds as you pick your way between huge trees. Black Tomato offers five nights in Ecuador, from £3,875 per person including international flights and three nights’ full-board, at the eco Mashpi Lodge.

Carmarthenshire

In the foothills of the Cambrian Mountains, you’ll find a mixed woodland of various trees. Activities include mountain biking in the Tywi Valley and waterfall hikes with views across the Brecon Beacons. Book the beautifully Glan-yr-Afon Riverside Cottage, surrounded by grasslands and mountain streams. From £597 for three nights, based on four sharing.
