Hottest Travel Destinations
Sometimes figuring out the best place to go can be difficult. Here are some hottest travel destinations that offer some of the most beautiful, artistic, and fashionable places on the globe.
Ibiza, Spain
While Ibiza is knownas a party city, there is far more to do in this historic town than simply drink and dance under the stars.

Plus, the Ibiza Fashion Festival takes place every June.

Planned missions to the moon need to hurry up to avoid hitting one of the busiest periods for extreme space weather, according to scientists conducting the most in-depth ever research on solar storm timing.
Scientists at theUniversityofReadingstudied 150 years of space weather data to look into patterns in the timing of the most extreme events,which can be extremely dangerous to astronauts and satellites. This new research on space weather timing allows predictions to be made for extreme space weather. Therefore, it could be used to plan the timing of activities, which could be affected by extreme space weather, for example, major space missions.
The researchers found for the first time that extreme space weather events are more likely to occur early in or late solar cycles-such as the one just starting. The findings may have influences on the NASA-led Artemis mission. It plans to make humans return to the moon in 2024, but can be put off to the late 2020s.
Professor Mathew Owens, a space physicist at theUniversityofReading, said, “Until now, the most extreme space weather events were thought to berandomin their timing. Though there is no set pattern of the events, this research suggests they are more predictable.”
In the new study, the scientists used a new method applying statistical modelling to storm timing for the first time. Previous research generally focused on how big extreme space weather events can be, based on observations of previous events. Predicting their timing is far more difficult because extreme events are rare, so there is ly little historic data to identify patterns. The findings suggest that any major planned space missions , which is beyond the next five years, will have to consider the higher probability of extreme space weather late in the present solar cycle between 2026 and 2030.
4. What can we learn about the study from the first two paragraphs?
A. It has lasted just 150 years.
B. It doesn't refer to space weather data.
C. It shows space weather has no effect on astronauts.
D. It makes it possible to predict extreme space weather.
5. Why might the NASA-led Artemis mission be put off?
A. To research solar cycles.
B. To avoid effects of space weather.
C. To meet the needs of the astronauts.
D. To make humans return to Earth in 2024.
6. What does the underlined word “random“ in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Irregular.
B. Easy.
C. Limited.
D. Changeless.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. The study is useful for future space missions.
B. The planned space missions should be put off.
C. Extreme space weather will happen before 2026.
D. Previous observations make no difference to the study.
C
The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the shore hike from camp. To our left, snow-covered mountains disappear into clouds that seem almost close enough to touch. On the plain in front of us, we can just make out a herd of graceful animals. This is why we stay here.
Tibetan antelopes live mainly on the plains of Tibet. Watching them move slowly across the green grass, I'm struck by their beauty. I'm also reminded of the danger they are in. They are being hunted illegally for their valuable fur.
My guide is Zhaxi, a villager from Changtang. He works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a safe place for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, protecting the wildlife is a way of life. “We're not trying to save the animals,” he says. “Actually, we're trying to save ourselves.”
In the 1980s and 1990s the population of Tibetan antelopes dropped by more than 50 percent. Hunters were shooting antelopes to make money. Their living places were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.
In order to save Tibetan antelopes, the Chinese government placed them under national protection. Zhaxi and volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.
The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015, the Tibetan antelope
wasremovedfrom the endangered species list. The government, however, does not intend to stop the protection program since the threat to the Tibetan antelope has not yet disappeared. Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet.
8. What can we learn from Zhaxi's words in paragraph 3?
A. Protecting the animals can make money.
B. Protecting the animals is protecting ourselves.
C. He is not fond of protecting the animals.
D. The reserve is only safe for wild animals.
9. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4?
A. Why hunters hunt Tibetan antelopes.
B. Why antelopes' living places changed.
C. Why antelopes' number dropped greatly.
D. Why the 1980s and the 1990s are unusual.
10. What does the underlined word “removed” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Deleted.
B. Changed.
C. Migrated.
D. Recognized.
11. What might be the future condition of Tibetan antelopes according to the last paragraph?
A. They will be over-populated.
B. They will be a threat to man and other wildlife.
C. They will be on the endangered species list again.
D. They will be in harmony with nature and humans.
D
Some years ago I was offered a writing assignment that would require three months of travel through Europe.
I had been abroad a couple of times, but I could hardly claim to know my way around the continent. Moreover, my knowledge of foreign languages was limited to a little college French.
I hesitated. How would I, unable to speak the language, totally unfamiliar with local geography or transportation system？It seemed impossible, and with considerable regret. Suddenly a thought ran through my mind: you can't learn if you don't try. So I accepted the assignment.
There were some bad moments. But by the time I had finished the trip I was an experienced traveler. And ever since, I have never hesitated to head for even the most remote of places, without guides or even advanced bookings, confident that somehow I will manage.
The point is that the new, along with the different, is almost scary by definition. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.
I've learned to ski at 40, and flown up the Rhine River in a balloon. And I know I'll go on doing such things. It's not because I'm braver or more daring than others. I'm not. But I'll accept anxiety as another name for challenge
and I believe I can accomplish wonders.
12. The author accepted the assignment because_________.
A. he had never travelled abroad before
B. he hardly knew any foreign languages
C. he was familiar with any other country in Europe
D. he would learn something new and different by trying
13. Which of the following statements is TRUE？
A. The author had been abroad only twice.
B. The author thought the trip was hard but worthwhile.
C. The author admitted that anything different was terrible.
D. The author must be good at doing research and making interviews.
14. We can infer from the text that the author is_______.
A. awkward
B. generous
C. stubborn
D. brave
15. What's the best title of the text？
A. An Interesting Trip Abroad
B. My First Writing Assignment
C. Ready to Try and Challenge
D. How to Be Daring and Brave.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项Do you always concern yourself with your kid’s play dates? Do you send them upstairs to get changed?____16____Put that red pen back in your purse, because micromanaging your kids is likely to do more harm than good.
Micromanaging or over-parenting comes in many forms. However it presents itself, it can give children the impression that parents don’t have confidence in them, and this can lead to problems. Kids who are micromanaged could also grow used to an unearned level of success, which may do harm to their attitude towards work and life. Parents who micromanage their kids sometimes struggle with a sense of control.____17____ So what should parents do? For modern parents, it can be a balance between healthy involvement in your kid's life and micromanaging. It can be especially difficult to know where the line is when it comes to the internet. We live in a digital age.____18____To help you walk that fine line, parents should be frank about it. If they're hiding their phone or acting secretively, a slightly different conversation about the health of their online activity might be needed.
Breaking a micromanaging habit isn't easy.____19____You could relax your grip in fairly inconsequential areas, like letting your child decide what clothes to wear. The plus side is that if you back off about little things, your words might carry more weight when it comes to the big things.____20____Therefore, you can let your children succeed, fail, and figure out life on their own.
A. But like any bad habit, start small.
B. Do you like talking with your kids?
C. Micromanaging can be a sign of anxiety in them.
D. Doyou stay with them while they're doing homework?
E. You can also form a healthier relationship with your kids.
F. Keep your eyes open for the changes in your kids' behavior.
G. It's important for parents to care about their kids' activity online.
