5 . Sri Lanka is a beautiful island nation best seen slowly, even if you have only four days there like I did.

The train in the country was my preferred means of transport (交通方式). My ticket, from Colombo to Kandy, with comfortable seats and a big picture window, cost $19 for the 2.5 hours ride. I got a second-class seat on the Kandy-to-Ella route (路线) and paid about $ 22 for the nearly seven-hour trip through the green hills and tea gardens of central Sri Lanka.

Gentle rain said hello to us as we entered Kandy. The Gamage family in William Gopallawa Mawatha Street hosted (招待) me. The lovely family, including parents, children and other family members, put me up for two nights in their home for $13 every night. My room was basic but comfortable, and came with a delicious breakfast spread every morning. Mrs. Gamage told me I could easily find someone in a tuk-tuk(三轮摩的) to show me around town.

When I found Santha, a small, middle-aged man with a big smile, the next day, we quickly agreed on a price for a tour of the city: just $15. His tuk-tuk moved uphill slowly toward Sri Maha Bodhi Viharaya Buddhist Temple. The warm driver also took me to the Royal Botanic Gardens, a peaceful place away from the traffic and noise of the town.

The next morning, I got on a bright blue train to Ella. Ella Station isn’t far from the Sunnyside Holiday Bungalow, where I had booked a room for about $40 every night. The owners are nice and the hotel with gardens is beautiful.

My first morning in Ella, I visited the Nine Arch Bridge, a beautiful old railway bridge. In the afternoon, it started to rain heavily. I walked into a restaurant which sits atop a hill and provides a breathtaking view (风景) of the countryside. An hour later, the rain let up. And I set out to go for a long walk in Little Adam’s Peak. I loved the view of low-lying clouds resting gently on what seemed like an endless series of green hills.

A．He toured the town.	B．He stayed in the hotel.
C．He visited an old railway bridge.	D．He enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

6 . I was lucky on the first night of the trip, because I had an empty seat next to me. But I found out this wasn’t the best solution for sleeping. I woke up early and kept a journal.

I was excited to see Chicago. I had never been there before and didn't really know what to expect. l was also looking forward to finding somewhere to take a shower. I wouldn't recommend trying to shave (刮胡子) on the train, Even holding a toothbrush by your face could be dangerous with the constant movement of the train, let alone a razor(剃刀).

We had one last stop before Chicago, and I remembered hopping（跳跃）on the platform for a few minutes. It was cold! I was on my way to Cali, and figured I wouldn't need too many warm clothes. Brilliant. I had one hoodie (连帽上衣) and was wearing it for most of the trip. We got on the train and soon things changed from the scenery along the Great Lakes, into a more urban area. On the train, you aren’t presented with “Welcome to...” signs for different cities and towns. You get to see parts of them that aren’t cleaned up and beautified for your view. You get to go to the areas that aren't so pretty, and that’s another reason why I loved the experience.

We rolled past alleys, streets, and soon enough, a lot of other trains. Chicago seems to be quite busy. The amount of tracks and signals was amazing. The sun was rising when we rolled into Union Station's platform. The entire platform is inside a big “garage” for the trains. I grabbed my luggage and made my way inside the station. The architecture of Union Station was really amazing.

7 . Lizzie’s diary from Antarctica(南极洲)

Day 3: Tuesday     December 2

We planned to go to Rothera that morning. We’d be staying there for the next two weeks. Because Antarctica is the windiest place on earth, sometimes you can’t fly at all.

We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if we’d be leaving that day. People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weather.

It turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called Dash-7.But even when we were in the air, there was still a chance we wouldn’t be able to fly the whole day.

Day 4: Wednesday     December 3

After waking up in the Antarctica for the first time today I can understand why everybody who comes here falls in love with the place. It is really beautiful.

We’re staying at Rothera Survey base with mountains of ice all around. It is very cold, but the regulars( 常客)here are often seen walking around in T-shirts!

Day 5: Thursday   December 4

I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic. I’m told it’s a bit colder today, but it’s not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are new to the base have to do a special training course before we’re allowed to go off base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill.

Day 7:   Saturday   December 6

Not a cloud in the sky and it’s warm enough to sit outside (in a jacket).

The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery(风景) changes every day.

At first I thought I was going mad. I’d step outside in the morning and think, “I’m sure that big mountain of ice wasn’t there yesterday.” It’s because the sea ice is always moving---slowly thankfully!

1. When did Lizzie sit outside wearing a jacket?

A．On Tuesday	B．On Wednesday
C．On Thursday	D．On Saturday

2. What could stop Lizzie from leaving Stanley for Rothera?

A．Strong winds	B．Thick clouds
C．Mountains of ice	D．Low temperature

3. How did Lizzie feel during her stay in the Antarctic?

A．Afraid

B．Nervous

C．Amazed

D．Bored

8 . Last year I took a flight to Bangkok managed by Arab Airlines Etihad. The service there was very good. During that flight we were given large comfortable headphones, pillows and disposable cosmetic bags with earplugs, socks, a bandage for eyes. This time my friend and I flew from Moscow to Delhi. The flight was managed by Aeroflot. The service on this flight was not that satisfying.     1    

After we obtained a visa upon arrival, passed through passport control and found our backpacks in the pile on the floor we came out from the airport building.     2    

We approached to the more or less impressive booth that says “Prepaid taxi”,     3     After we paid, the cashier gave us a bill and we were immediately seated into the car. Let’s go.

    4       He made a call to the hotel without any result and tried to explain to us that there were some blocked roads. It was not clear whether he was joking or not.

    5       In a word, there was a mistake in the hotel name on the booking, com website, as there are several hotels of the chain called OYO Rooms, but there were no specific names mentioned in the reservation.

So we barely found one of the hotels of this chain and the man on the reception was not sure that we made reservation in this hotel, but it was late and we probably looked tired, so he gave us a room eventually.

Room was a little bit gloomy. Sheets were of course dirty, but after we drank a cup of tea we successfully fell asleep.

A．where we were warmly welcomed.

B．The taxi driver did not know where to go, neither did we.

C．We were just given a blanket and an uncomfortable headphone.

D．The taxi driver knew the route very well and we were soon in the hotel.

E．We were immediately surrounded by taxi men, as in most countries in the world.

F．where we order a taxi to the hotel that was situated not far away from the airport.

G．Thanks to the navigator in the phone of my friend, we reached the street that was mentioned in the hotel address.

10 . Known for its complicated, seemingly wavelike sandstone walls and the rays of sunlight that shine into them, Arizona's Antelope Canyon（羚羊峡谷）is an everlasting attraction for tourists. It's a slot canyon, meaning it formed from water carving it out over millions of years. It sits about 3, 700 feet above sea level and takes its name from the antelope that once lived in it.

The canyon forms part of Lake Powell Navajo Tribal Park in the Navajo Nation. The Navajo Nation limits visits to either the Upper or Lower Antelope Canyon to two hours and requires all visitors to be led by authorized guides. If you're planning a trip and need help deciding which area to visit, keep these recommendations in mind.

•When: Tours are available twice a day during the week year-round, though exact times vary by season；tours are not available on weekends or major holidays.

•Cost: Tour companies 5 fees vary, but tickets, including entrance to the park, generally start at around $ 60 for 90-minute tours of Upper Antelope Canyon. Tours of Lower Antelope Canyon tend to be around an hour and generally cost around $ 40 per adult and $ 20 for children.

• Must-know tip: Most of Arizona does not follow daylight saving time, though the Navajo Nation, where Antelope Canyon is located, does. Check with your tour operator to confirm the precise time of your tour.

Antelope Canyon hosts tons of visitors and, in order to protect the canyon walls from damage, no bags of any kind are permitted in either the Upper or Lower section. Also keep in mind that while most tour companies welcome small children, not all of them will.
