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.

After finishing his dinner, Lin Xu opened a WeChat mini-programcalled "Clear Plate" on his phone and took a picture of the empty plates. He was then awarded 157 credit points after the image was uploaded and recognized by artificial intelligence. The credit points can be used to buy gifts, such as books, cellphones and red wine, or to purchase charity meals donated to children in poor rural areas.
The "Clear Plate" mini-program has become popular among young Chinese. Similar campaigns like an "empty plate challenge" are alsoon the horizonin many Chinese universities.
"Technological innovation is a good way to reduce food waste," said Liu Jichen. Founder of the start-up that developed the app. The idea popped up at a dinner in 2017, when Liu found that the restaurant owner would give diners who polished off their food a card and offer small gifts after a certain number of cards had been collected. "Everyone who values food is bound to enjoy a sense of gain at a lower cost," Liu mentioned this case, noting that such an idea could potentially be realized online.
He formeda team to work on the project. Yet it was quite a challenge for the AI system to assess whether the uploaded photos showed empty plates. To make the AI system smarter，Liu and his team, assisted by more than 1, 000 others, spent half a year collecting over100,000 samples from canteens and restaurants across the country and analyzed the data. Dozens of enterprises, institutions and restaurants have contacted the start-up to cooperate on the project. Through the digitalized, visualized mini-program, people can clearly see the good results of saving food, which will effectively reduce food waste. "We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation, encouraging them to develop the habit of thrift(节约)," Liu said.
4. What does the underlined phrase "on the horizon" in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Likely to decrease.
B. Likely to succeed.
C. Likely to change.
D. Likely to appear.

It's a popular belief that a fish's memory lasts for only seven seconds. It may seem sad to think that they don't remember what they've eaten or where they’ve been, and they don't identify you or any of their friends--every moment intheir life would be like seeing the world for the first time.
But don't be so quick to feel sorry for them. A new study has found that fish have a much better memory than we used to think. In fact, certain species of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago. In the study, researchers from Mac Ewan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank to get food.They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again. Researchers used computer software to monitor the fish’s movements.They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food. This suggested that they could remember their past experiences.
In fact. scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory. An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively(挑衅地) in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past "fights".But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence.
Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survivein the wild. "If fish are able to remember that a certain area contains safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives at risk,"lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science.
For a long time, fish were placed far below chimpanzees, dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals.But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence.
8. According to the text, people commonly believe that ______.
A. fish don't recognize any of their friends
B. a fish's memory lasts for only seven minutes
C. fish can only remember part of their past experiences
D. fish can remember things that happened long ago
9. How can fish benefit most from a good memory?
A. They can remember their enemies and fight.
B. They can remember where to get food and survive.
C. They can remember their friends and help each other.
D. They can remember where to go when in danger.
10. What can we learn from the text?
A. Only African cichlids have a good memory.
B. African cichlids can remember things for 12 days.
C. African cichlids always treat other fish aggressively.
D. African cichlids don't belong to the list of smart animals.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. What we can learn from fish.
B. Fish having a very bad memory.
C. How fish improve their memory.
D. Fish being smarter than we thought.
D
True friend from a distant land
International friends can come in many shapes and sizes. However they arrive on the scene, they are always appreciated, especially in times ofturbulence. Michael Lindsay (1909 — 94) is a case in point.
After graduating from the University of Oxford in 1931, Lindsay arrived in China in 1937 on a ship from Canada intending merely to teach economics at Beiping Yenching University, the current Peking University. He traveled with Norman Bethune the Canadian doctor who dedicated his life to medicine in China during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931 — 45).
Lindsay left Beijing at the end of 1941, and went to the Communist-led Jinchaji base(晋察冀边区)together with his wife Li Xiaoli, who was a Shanxi local and a former student of his.
“Lindsay was inspired by the hard work local Chinesepeople made in fighting against Japanese aggression. After learning that Chinese armies on the frontlines were suffering supply shortages, Lindsay was determined to
lend a hand," says Yan Juhai, a retired official from Shanxi's Lyuliang city. "In the Jinchaji base, NieRongzhen( 1899 — 1992), the base's top commander, appointed him to work as the communications expert, where he became a full-time radio technician contributing greatly in communication technology innovation and training," says Yan.
In 1944 Lindsay and his wife arrived in Yan'an in Shaanxi province and helped fix its telecommunication equipment. They stayed for 18 months in Yan'an, and after the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, they decided to return to the United Kingdom to visit their parents.
12. Which word in the following can best replace the underlined word?
A. peace
B. war
C. stress
D. sorrow
13. Why did Lindsay go to the Communist-led Jinchaji base according to Yan Juhai?
A. Because his wife was a Shanxi local.
B. Because he was warmly invited by NieRongzhen.
C. Because he was touched by Chinese people's efforts
D. Because he was more interested in communications.
14. What can we learn from the article?
A. Lindsay and his wife stayed in China for over 8 years.
B. Lindsay's wife was also skilled in communication technology.
C. Lindsay was appointed as the communications consultant in Shanxi province.
D. Lindsay taught economics in the Jinchaji base besides his work as a radio expert.
15. Where is the text probably from?
A. a guidebook
B. a novel
C. a diary
D. a newspaper

Mystery of Evolution
Following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia(NCP), also named COVID-19 by WHO, there is a general fear of the unknown virus as its full effects remain to be seen. Fever, coughing, sore throat, difficulty breathing-the NCP's symptoms are similar to the common cold or the flu. but it's potentially more dangerous.
Viruses could be deadly, like HIV and Ebola (埃博拉) . But what are viruses? How can they cause so much trouble? Viruses are non-living organisms (有机体) approximately one-millionth of an inch long. Unlike human
cells or bacteria, they can't reproduce on their own.___16___
Viruses can infect every living thing-from plants and animals down to the smallest bacteria. For this reason, they always have the potential to be dangerous to human life. Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so serious that it is fatal. Other viral infections cause no noticeable reaction. Viruses lie around our environment all of the time, waiting for a host cell to come along. They can eater our bodies by the nose, mouth, eyes or breaks in the skin.___17___For example, HIV, which causes AIDS. attacks the T-cells of the immune system.
But the basic question is, where did viruses first come from?____18____"Tracing the origins of viruses is difficult. " Ed Rybicki, a virologist at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific American, "because viruses don't leave fossils (化石) and because of the tricks they use to make copies of themselves within the cells they've invaded."___19___First, viruses started as independent organisms, then became parasites (寄生者) . Second. viruses evolved from pieces of DNA or RNA that "escaped" from larger organisms. Third, viruses co-evolved with their host cells, which means they existed alongside these cells.
For the time being, these are only theories. The technology and evidence we have today cannot be used to test these theories and identify the most plausible explanation.___20___Or future studies may reveal that the answer is even murkier (含糊不清的) than it now appears.
A. Once inside, they try to find a host cell to infect.
B. Until now, no clear explanation for their origin exists.
C. Continuing studies may provide us with clearer answers.
D. There's pretty strong evidence that this is a bat origin coronavirus.
E. However, there are three main hypotheses (假说) to explain the origin of viruses.
F. Instead, they invade the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.
G. Bat is a flying mammal with a long lifespan, whose temperature is high, similar to a fever.

because we couldn’t grow and create cool things without them,” she said.
An increasing number of teachers are also doing so by encouraging students to___27___in direct experimentation. They are replacing the traditional “sage (智者) on stage” teaching style with“___28___on the side.” Students must instead attempt to think___29___, guided by a teacher’s careful questioning. This requires a lot of_____30_____and error. Along the way, students learn to_____31_____how failure often leads – inadvertently (无意中) — to new discoveries and inventions.
One such program involves the design and construction of a pinhole (针孔) camera. Students use materials such as an old shoebox and oatmeal container, and must apply concepts from all four STEM_____32_____— science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Despite the apparent_____33_____of the materials provided, the challenge requires knowledge of light and optics (光学), engineering design processes (such as meeting the customer needs), mathematical modeling and scientific experimentation.
The researchers found that learning outcomes were higher for students in science classes that take a student-centered_____34_____. Some of these effects were both significant and sustainable (可持续的). For instance, a_____35_____influence was measured onscores for tests taken 5.5 months after the original instruction. And the results appear to_____36_____to all students — from kindergarten through college.
Learning from mistakes is hardly a(n)_____37_____teaching or life philosophy.
