Pakistan should be everyone’s tourist destination for 2021, but what if you already live there?
Then perhaps you should consider visiting these five must-visit places for this year.
Lake Saiful Muluk
At an altitude of 3, 224m, surrounded by snowy mountains, the lake rewards those that make the three-hour uphill walk from Naran. You wil l find the pathway just above the free market, but the best choice is to g et a jeep and share the costs with some other tourists; expect to pay abo ut 700 rupees, worth it to view this natural beauty.
Deosai National Park
As another high point in Pakistan, it has an average altitude of 4,114 m－the Deosai Plains are one of the highest plateaus (高原) in the world. If you make it to the park, you expect to find rich plants and wild ani mals. The breathtaking scenery on show at the plains is enough to make 2018 a memorable year.
Naltar Valley
Accessible via a 2.5-hour drive from Gilgit, well worth visiting. Cov ered with pine trees and other plants, it has a dreamlike feel about it. Va rious colors all year around make you fall in love.
Shangrila Resort
Right in the north of Pakistan in the central valley of Gilgit-Baltista n. Locals call this a paradise (乐园), and that’s what it feels like. No vi sit is complete without checking out the restaurant which is built in the s tructure of an aircraft.
Rama Meadow (牧场)
Doesn’t feel like Pakistan at all, more like somewhere in Minnesota. Watch the sheep and cows feeding while clear water flows in streams fr om high in the mountains. Against Chongra’s ice-covered peak, this little meadow is a piece of art.
21. What is the best means to go to Lake Saiful Muluk?
A. Drive a jeep alone.
B. Share the jeep ride with others.
C. Choose an uphill walk from Naran.
D. Follow the pathway above the free market.
22. Where may you go if interested in wild animals?
A. Lake Saiful Muluk.
B. Naltar Valley.
C. Rama Meadow.
D. Deosai National Park.
23. What can we know about Rama Meadow?
A. It is an attractive and peaceful place.
B. It is what the Pakistanis like best.
C. It is a dream destination for adventurers.
D. It is a place where dirty water flows in streams.
B
Georgina, known as Georgie, will turn 16 later this week and organiz ed the party with two friends. Her mother said they had originally looked at the choice of booking a nightclub, but decided the £1,000 fee was too expensive. She said, “It seemed that realistically the only place Geor gina could have her party was at home.”
Georgie’s parents had grown-ups to be in charge, a proper guest list, and a ban on alcohol. So they thought they had her 16th birthday party under control. Unfortunately, it was advertised on Facebook.
Around 400 uninvited guests stormed into the family’s townhouse in Brighton on Saturday and gatecrashed (擅自参加) the event. They violen tly forced their way past the adults on duty, breaking light bulbs, knockin g over plants and tearing up the garden. Twelve police cars had to be cal led in to send them on their way. The troublemakers were the Facebook Republican Army, a group who look for teenage parties to crash through social networking sites.
Yesterday Georgie’s mother, Sylvia Meli, said to the newspaper repo rter, “It was an absolute horror show. The garden has been ruined and t he grass is just mud. I’ll never have a party for my daughter here again.
I think Facebook is a major cause, as well as texting.”
A gatecrasher said this is just the kind of party they like to gatecras h. They’re in their late teens and early 20s and they are quite intimidati ng. When they turn up at a teenage party they know that no one will da re to say anything to them so they can do what they want. Once they’v e found a party they put the word out through texts and news spreads fa st.
A Sussex police spokesman said, “There was a sea of people, and i t was difficult to move, which was a major safety problem that required a lot of police time and resources.”Mrs Meli added, “I do understand at that age they have nowhere to go because they couldn’t go to clubs.
But invading someone else’s party and wasting police time and money i s not the answer.”
24. What made Georgie’s parents give up holding the party at a ni ghtclub?
A. The limited time.
B. The high cost.
C. The safety problem.
D. The noisy atmosphere.
25. What can we know about Georgie’s mother?
A. She regretted holding the party at home.
B. She has disadvantaged backgrounds.
C. She arranged the party with Georgie.
D. She throws a birthday party for Georgie yearly.
26. What does the underlined word “intimidating”in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Ambitious.
B. Curious.
C. Enthusiastic.
D. Frigh tening.
27. What’s Mrs. Meli’s attitude towards the Facebook Republican Army?
A. Supportive.
B. Negative.
C. Concerned.
D. Doub tful.
C
The times are changing. On Thursday October 13th, 2021, singer-son gwriter Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, marking th e first time the highly-eyed-on literary （文学的）award has gone to some one who is mainly seen as a musician, and leading to heated discussions.
The 75-year-old won the prize “for having created new poetic expre ssions within the great American song tradition”, the Swedish Academy s aid.
“For 54 years he has been at it, reinventing himself,”said Sara Da nius, the academy’s permanent secretary. “Bob Dylan writes poetry for the ear. But it’s perfectly fine to read his works as poetry.”
And while many Dylan’s fans have found great delight at the news, others online and in the literary community are angry with the Committe e, saying the award has skipped over fiction writers for the second year.
New York Times Book Review editor Pamela Paul said it was good news but pointed out how many “deserving”novelists there are.
Director Martin Scorsese put out a statement saying he was “overjoy ed”that Dylan was awarded the prize.
“Dylan’s poetry, his musical genius, has meant so much to me per sonally and to generations of people around the world,”Scorsese said. “His work has influenced and shaped culture, and he has never stopped exploring and growing as an artist. The Nobel Committee has given Dyla n a form of recognition that fits his role in our culture—in world cultur e.”
Dylan won a Pulitzer Prize in 2021 for his “great influence on popu lar music and American culture”. He’s the first American to win the lit erary Nobel since Toni Morrison in 1993.
28. Why does Bob Dylan’s winning the Nobel Prize cause heated di scussions?
A. He is 75 years old.
B. He reinvents himself.
C. He is known as a musician.
D. He created poetic expressions.
29. What can we know about Dylan according to Martin Scorsese?
A. Dylan influences Martin a lot.
B. Dylan is happy with the award.
C. Dylan is a poet rather than a musician.
D. Dylan benefits a lot from world culture.
30. Who is the first American to win Nobel Literature Prize in histo ry?
A. Bob Dylan.
B. Sara Danius.
C. Martin Scorsese.
D. Toni Morrison.
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A brief introduction to Bob Dylan.
B. The reason for Bob Dylan’s success.
C. Different views on Bob Dylan’s winning the Nobel Prize.
D. Bob Dylan’s great influence on American culture.

Four years ago, we asked ourselves: what if we could create a shopp ing experience with no waiting in lines and no checkout? Or could we cr eate a physical store where customers could simply take what they want and go? Our answer to those questions is Amazon Go, where you could experience the idea of “just walk out shopping”.
Amazon Go is a new kind of store with no checkout required. We c reated the world’s most advanced shopping technology, so you never hav e to wait in line.

Our “just walk out technology”automatically detects when products are taken from or returned to the shelves and keep s track of them in your virtual cart (虚拟购物车). When you’ve done sh opping, you can just leave the store. Shortly after, we’ll charge your Am azon account and send you a receipt (收据).
We offer delicious ready-to-eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack opt ions made fresh every day by our on-site chefs and favorite local kitchen s and bakeries. Our selection of foodstuff ranges from bread and milk to cheeses and locally made chocolates. You’ll find well-known brands we l ove, plus special finds we’re excited to introduce to customers. For a qu ick home-cooked dinner, pick up one of our chef-designed Amazon Meal Kits, and you can make a meal for two in about 30 minutes．Our 1,800-square-foot shopping space is conveniently compact (紧凑的), so busy customers can get in and out fast. It is located at 2131, 7th Ave, Seattle, W A, on the corner of 7th Avenue and Blanchard Street. Al l you need is an Amazon account, a supported smart phone, and the free Amazon Go app.

依照短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为余外选项。

Solar energy, which comes from the sun’s rays, is used for electricit y, hot water, and cooking. The sun’s rays come from the faraway sun. When traveling a long way and entering the earth’s atmosphere, it beco mes dilute (稀薄的). As is known to all, solar energy is environmentally friendly. 36
Let’s start with the simple advantage of solar energy. 37
To make electricity or heat with solar energy you only need the sun’s r ays and don’t use oil. Solar energy is cheaper compared with electric he ating. 38 If you live in a faraway area where there are no p ower-lines, using solar energy can be the answer.
Even though all of the above is very useful, solar energy also has so me disadvantages. The main disadvantage of solar energy is that it’s dilu te. This means you have to have many solar collectors fixed around your house. 39 Another disadvantage is that not all the places so lar energy can be produced. If you’re living in a part of this beautiful p lanet where there is not much sunlight, then using solar energy could be a problem. Of course if you live in desert areas, the sun produces much sunshine for the most part of the year and it is ideal for solar energy col lecting. 40 Therefore if you need electricity or hot water duri ng the night, like many of us do, it can be a problem. You’ll need batt ery systems that can store solar energy for later use.
A. Solar energy is clean.
B. The sun has much energy.
C. Lastly, the sun only shines during the day.
D. That is another big advantage of solar energy.
E. Fixing solar collectors in your home is a good choice for you.
F. Solar energy may be cheap but the solar collectors are expensive.
G. But in fact, it has not only some advantages but also some disad vantages.

书面表达
Dear David,
I’m Li Hua, one of your students. I’m writing to tell you there’l l be an English drama competition in our school, which aims to attract st udents’interest in learning English. On behalf of the Students’Union, I invite you to the competition as a judge.
课本、报刊杂志中的成语、名言警句等俯首皆是,但学生写作文运用到文章中的甚少,即使运用也专门难做到恰如其分。

什么缘故?依旧没有完全“记死”的缘故。

要解决那个问题,方法专门简单,每天花3-5分钟左右的时刻记一条成语、一则名言警句即可。

能够写在后黑板的“积存专栏”上每日一换,能够在每天课前的3分钟让学生轮番讲解,也可让学生个人搜集,每天往笔记本上抄写,教师定期检查等等。

如此,一年就可记300多条成语、30 0多则名言警句,日积月累,终究会成为一笔不小的财宝。

这些成语典故“贮藏”在学生脑中,自然会出口成章,写作时便会为所欲为地“提取”出来,使文章增色添辉。

The competition will be held at 8 a.m. on November 13th i n the school lecture hall. As a judge, you are expected to give scores to each group according to their pronunciation and performance. And after th eir performance, we hope you can make comments on their presentation. We would appreciate it if you could give us some suggestions.
Looking forward to your reply and your presence at the competition.
单靠“死”记还不行,还得“活”用,姑且称之为“先死后活”吧。

让学生把一周看到或听到的新奇事记下来,摒弃那些假话套话空话,写出自己的
真情实感,篇幅可长可短,并要求运用积存的成语、名言警句等,定期检查点评,选择优秀篇目在班里朗读或展出。

如此,即巩固了所学的材料,又锤炼了学生的写作能力,同时还培养了学生的观看能力、思维能力等等,达到“一石多鸟”的成效。

Yours,
与当今“教师”一称最接近的“老师”概念，最早也要追溯至宋元时期。

金代元好问《示侄孙伯安》诗云：“伯安入小学，颖悟专门貌，属句有夙性，说字惊老师。

”因此看，宋元时期小学教师被称为“老师”有案可稽。

清代称主考官也为“老师”，而一样学堂里的先生则称为“教师”或“教习”。

可见，“教师”一说是比较晚的事了。

现在体会，“教师”的含义比之“老师”一说，具有资历和学识程度上较低一些的差别。

辛亥革命后，教师与其他官员一样依法令任命，故又称“教师”为“教员”。

Li Hua。
