The COVID -19 pandemic has affected all aspects of life, including the way we travel. But for those who are looking to expand their horizons while still staying safe, the following three travel trends in 2021 may provide inspirations. Let’s take a look.
Staycation
With many travel restrictions during the pandemic, people preferred traveling to nearby places in 2020. This trend continues in 2021. According to search data, 62 percent of people are interested in taking a vacation within driving distance of home. People who live in large cities want to get back in touch with nature. Travelers are looking for places different from their everyday accommodations, for example, farm stays, villas and cottages.
Pod travel
While 2020 saw a rise in solo travel and isolated adventures, 2021 shows that people want to be more connected. “Pod travel”, or gathering in isolated spaces with loved ones, is growing in popularity. 85 percent of survey respondents favor traveling with family or friends, and over half of the trips searched include three or more people. Pod travel is here to stay for those who want to safely be together while reducing risks associated with socializing with others.
Remote working and traveling
Many people worked and learned from home in 2020 because of the pandemic. Remote working blurs the line between working and traveling. There was a 128 percent increase in the mention of phrases such as “relocation”, “relocate”, “remote work” and “trying a new neighborhood”. People are actively booking longer stays (e. g. two plus week trips) in small to mid—size cities with access to immersive natural surroundings and wide—open spaces.
1.What can we learn about Staycation?
A.Travelling to the countryside.
B.Taking an isolated adventure.
CHaving holidays in nearby places. D.Staying indoors all by oneself.
2.What’s special about Pod travel?
A.Traveling alone.
B.Traveling far away.
C.Traveling while working.
D.Traveling with loved ones.
3.Where might we find the text in a magazine?

At first glance, there is nothing unusual about BingoBox’s convenience store–shelves packed with snacks line the walls, attracting passers-by through the glass windows. But upon closer look, BingoBox is no ordinary store. The door unlocks only after customers scan (扫描) aQR code to enter, and there is no cashier — just a lone checkout counter (柜台) in a corner. The Shanghai-based company is one of many unmanned store operators (运营者) opening outlets all over China, hoping to improve slim profit by reducing staff costs.
“Ifstaff costs rise quickly, that puts greater pressure on low-profit businesses like convenience stores and supermarkets,” said Andrew Song, an analyst at Guotai Junan Securities. “InChina, manpower costs have been rising ly quickly.”
However, the future vision of shopping without a check-out person is still a work in progress. A Post reporter who visited a BingoBox store inShanghaiwas briefly locked in when trying to exit without buying anything. Although a sign near the exit stated that empty-handed customers can leave by scanning a QR code, no QR code was to be found. Repeated calls to the customer service hotline went unanswered.
The idea of unmanned stores first caught the world’s attention in December last year. Equipped with technology such as RFID tags, mobile payment systems and facial and movement recognition, such stores collect large amounts of data that give operators a better idea of consumer preferences and buying habits, which can then be used to optimize (使最优化) operations and make more efficient inventory decisions. For companies like BingoBox, lower operating costs also mean it can afford to expand its reach to areas with less foot traffic or fewer people, according to its founder and chief executive ChenZilin.
4. What makes BingoBox store look like an ordinary convenience store?
A. No cashier to check out.
B. A lone checkout counter.
C. Shelves packed with goods.
D. Entering by scanning a QR code.
5. Why are unmanned stores popular with operators?
A. The customers prefer mobile payment systems.
B. The unmanned stores help improve profit with lower labor costs.
C. The employees focus on consumer preferences and buying habits.
D. The operators care more about operations and inventory decisions.
6. Why is the reporter’s case mentioned in the passage?
A. To show his anger and dissatisfaction.
B. To warn people not to go to a BingoBox store.
C. To explain unmanned stores still have a long way to go.
D. To complain that QR code service is not convenient at all..
7. What can we infer from the chief executive Chen Zilin?
A. Nowadays all stores should be equipped with advanced technology.
B. The operators collect data about consumer preferences and buying habits.
C. BingoBox made wiser decisions based on the data collected in those unmanned stores.
D. The operators can open unmanned supermarkets in more distant places with low cost.
C
Have you ever been sad because of failure? Please remember, for quite often achieving what you set out to do is not the most important thing.
A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house. As he was working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a while, the boy picked up a jar. He showed it to the visitors. It was full of all kinds of stones and insects. Then he said calmly and confidently, “Maybe I can’t finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I’ve found during this period!”
Theboy’s goal was far too difficult, but it did cause him to go on. And that is what a goal is for－to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to cause us to keep working!
Not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will endup with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you fall short of your aim, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look at what I’ve found along the way! There are so many wonderful things having come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really makes sense.
8. The older boys laughed at the boy because he was thought to be______.
A. brave
B. impolite
C. foolish
D. warm-hearted
9. Why did the boy show the jar to the older boys?
A. To drive them away.
B. To show what he had found in digging.
C. To show how beautiful the jar was.
D. To attract them to join him in the work.
10. What can be learnt from the fourth paragraph of the text?
A. No dream can come true.
B. All work will end successfully.
C. Goals shouldn’t be set too high.
D. Goals will make us work harder.
11. The best title for the text should be______.
A. A Boy Dug a Hole
B. Joy in the Journey
C. No Pain, No Gains
D. Failure Is the Mother of Success
D
Dear Jack,
I remember the moment— it truly hit me that your autism (自闭症) lasted forever. I had already mentally planned our trips up north with the boys. I was going to spend endless hours playing baseball with you— like Grandpa did with me.
When we said goodbye to kindergarten I knew it was real. I spent some time being sad. Now you are 8. You still have no words. We have never had one of those father-son moments I pictured when you were a baby. But I'm learning that's OK. I still have unbelievable things to offer as your dad, even if they weren't the things I originally expected.
You have taught me to be patient. You have taught me that it's OK to be different and to be sad when life doesn't go as planned. You have taught me that it is OK to talk about those feelings and fight for what is right.
Stand up and say this is wrong, and encourage others to stand up for you and say the same.
My job on this earth is to create a world for you and other kids like you. Be the voice you don't have, and build the kind of community which I want to see you grow up in. I used to shy away from contacting people with disabilities or just not consider them. Before you were born, I was so caught up in my own world that I probably wouldn't have even noticed. Now, I see things differently. I notice. You did that for me. And hope my example will do that for others.
Your mom and I have spent 8 years trying to find your voice. And honestly, we don't know if we ever will. I promise you I will spend my life keeping you safe and making this world better for you.
12. To whom is the text written?
A. The author's son.
B. The author's wife.
C. The author's father.
D. The author's friend.
13. What can be learned about the author?
A. He's at a loss what to do to help Jack.
B. He's to blame for Jack s present condition.
C. He has changed his attitude to the disabled.
D. He hasn't accepted the reality up to now.
14. How does the author sound in the text?
A. Sympathetic.
B. Caring.
C. Regretful.
D. Indifferent.
15. In which section of a magazine may this text appear?
A. Science.
B. Entertainment.
C. Sports.
D. Relationship.
