For most tourists visiting the UK, London is the top place to go. However, there are many other great destinations in the UK too, one of which is the South-West of England. Here are my top four reasons for visiting this area.
Cream teas
The traditional English afternoon pick-me-up of scones—small cakes—served with thick cream and jam, accompanied with a pot of tea, originates from the South-West. You'll be sure to find plenty of cafés selling these delights in the area! Just don't get into a debate with the locals about how it should be eaten—Devonshire folk say that the cream should be spread onto the scone first and then the jam, while the Cornish say that it should be the other way round!
Dartmoor National Park
In the heart of the South-West, this national park has been voted the UK's favourite. There are plenty of great walks to choose from, which will lead you to discover Dartmoor's charm（魅力）! Surprisingly beautiful beaches
England is not known for its beaches, but in the South-West you will find plenty of wonderful and often deserted ones. Some examples include Whitsand Bay in Cornwall and Woolacombe Beach in Devon. If you don't mind the slightly cooler temperatures than other beach destinations in Europe, you are in for a real treat!
Characterful cities and charming villages
The South-West really has got it all! As well as being surrounded by beautiful nature, it is full of urban jewels. The city of Exeter in Devon has great shopping, as well as lots of unusual cafés by the quayside（码头区） and a river walk to one of the city's best-known pubs. Cornwall has its own treasures too. Pretty villages and towns such as St Ives and Mousehole line the coastline, and they are perfect for spending those relaxing summer afternoons.
(1) How do the Cornish think scones should be eaten?
A. By mixing the jam and the cream.
B. By covering the jam with the cream.

Molly is a 7-year-old girl. Her grandmother was watching her play with the 2-year-old German shepherd dog named Haus in their backyard when the dog suddenly jumped in front of the girl and reared up（用后腿站立） several times. It wasn't clear what happened at first, but they could tell Haus was bleeding. They brought Haus to a vet. When his leg was shaved, three bite marks could be seen—signs of being bitten by a snake. "It shows us that the dog protected my family at risk to his own life, " said Molly's father.
A family friend firstly posted the dog's story online to collect money. "The response, " said Molly's father, "has been encouraging." Now hundreds of donors are coming to the family's rescue, quickly topping the goal of ＄15, 000 on a GoFundMe account to help pay for antivenin（抗蛇毒血清） needed to keep the dog that is still recovering in a hospital alive. By this afternoon, ＄35, 000 had been raised for the dog's care.
The family lives near a state park that is a habitat for snakes, and dangerous animals can slip under their fence from the wilderness. The snake's venom damaged the dog's kidneys（肾脏）. Vets now expect a full recovery, but it won't be cheap. It costs＄1, 000 to＄1, 500 in the ICU each day, and each bottle of antivenin costs＄618. Haus is averaging 4 or 5 bottles per day to make the poison leave his system.
The family adopted Haus just two months ago from a rescue organization for free, but he just went beyond the family's expectations. "Now the kids are giving more love to him, " said Molly's father.
(1) Who started the activity of raising money for Haus?
A. Molly.
B. Molly's father.

(2) How much should the family at least pay for Haus one day in the ICU?
A. ＄2, 472.
B. ＄3, 472.
C. ＄3, 972.
D. ＄4, 090.
(3) What's the family's attitude to Haus?
A. Grateful.
B. Curious.
C. Regretful.
D. Unclear.
(4) What's TRUE about Haus?
A. The snake bit it on its neck.

D. It has been a member of the Molly family for many years.

Michelin inspectors, the super-secret spies of the restaurant industry, are the anonymous（匿名的）keepers of the famous Michelin star rating. They've been writing anonymous reports of restaurants for over 100 years.
"We say it's a little like the CIA, " said Inspector "M" with a laugh. She asked that her identity not be revealed." My whole life is staying under the radar, staying away from cameras, using fake names, trying to sneak （偷偷地走） in and out of restaurants quietly."
Along with their boss, Jean Luc Naret, the director of the Michelin Guide, about 90 inspectors around the world decide which restaurants will win the culinary（烹饪的） equivalent of an Oscar, a Nobel Prize, and Mega millions jackpot all at once. The Michelin Guide covers 23 countries, and out of the 45, 000 rated restaurants, less than 100 have the top rating—only nine American restaurants carry three stars.
If the name "Michelin" brings the tires（轮胎） on your car to mind, you're not too far off. The Michelin rating began in France in 1900 as a marketing trick. The Michelin brothers thought their customers would burn more rubber（橡胶） if given a list of hotels and restaurants to explore.
Inspector "M" admitted being an inspector leads to a lonely dining life." Most of the time we dine alone, " she said." It gives us the ability to really focus on the food and the ambience（气氛） and capture the entire experience." To cover their tracks, "M" said sometimes two inspectors will dine together and write two separate papers. It's better than saying "table for one", right?
"When you're really, really into food and very passionate about food, everything else that's going on around you isn't so important, " she said.
(1) The underlined words "TAL#NBSP under the radar" in Paragraph 2 mean.
A. trying to be unnoticed
B. living in danger
C. being the focus of the media
D. making programs on the radio
(2) We can learn from the text that.
A. "Michelin" was a restaurant's name at first
B. restaurants don't welcome Michelin inspectors
C. Michelin inspectors will examine restaurants' kitchens
D. less than 1% of rated restaurants get three stars
(3) Sometimes two inspectors dine together so that they can.
A. protect their identities
B. cut the expense on the food
C. save trouble by sharing a paper
D. talk about the food over the meal
(4) What would be the best title for the text?
A. M's experience as a CIA
B. The legend of Michelin brothers
C. Michelin inspectors: food industry spies
D. Michelin—a giant in the tire and restaurant industry

When Richard Mankin was a boy, he wondered why insects could fly but he couldn't. Indeed, he recalls, "I always kind of wanted to fly." Now as an entomologist（昆虫学家） in Gainesville, Florida, he studies insects for the AgriculturalResearch Service, part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture（USDA）.
Mankin still can't fly-at least not without a plane. In fact, a rare muscle disease means he finds even walking hard. To get around, Mankin wears leg braces（支架） and uses two sticks. But that doesn't stop him from getting into the field to listen for bugs.
He focuses on sounds most of us will never hear. With electronic equipment, he listens for the sounds that bugs make in wood, soil, or stored products.
Mankin's disability played an indirect role in his career path. "I really started off in physics, " he says. But opportunities for people with disabilities seemed limited when he was in college. Then he got a chance to work at USDA in an insect research lab. He realized“there were just a lot of physics tools that you could apply to questions of entomology." Moreover, he notes, " Nobody else was doing it." Before long, he was hooked. He got more and more pleasure out of the work.
Since turning to entomology—the study of bugs-Mankin has helped to develop equipment that can listen in on insects feeding on a tree. Their sounds make the wood vibrate（振动）. Pressure vibrations from the sound hit a crystal（水晶振动器） in his tool. The crystal develops a voltage（电压） when it's pressed due to the vibrations in the wood. The strength and frequency of voltage changes in the crystal let Mankin and others measure the sound of the insects.
Mankin's research has taken him across the United States. He also needs to work in other countries. Often he teams up with biologists to listen for insects. Sometimes other scientists will assist him. "I'm good at operating the equipment, " he notes, "but I'm not good at climbing trees."
(1) According to the text, if Mankin weren't physically disabled，he would
have.
A. been a pilot
B. become a physician
C. chosen a different career
D. performed better in entomology
(2) What does the underlined part "TAL#NBSP he was hooked" in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. He was confused.
B. He got exhausted.
C. He became successful.
D. He fell in love with entomology.
(3) What is the fifth paragraph mainly intended to show?
A. How Mankin studies bugs.
B. How insects' sound is recorded.
C. How Mankin's equipment works.
D. How Mankin develops new equipment.
(4) What can we know about Mankin from the text?
A. He developed the electronic equipment alone.
B. He has travelled to lots of places for his work.
C. He has become world-famous for his accomplishments.
D. He has to rely on others to solve questions of entomology.

We all care about what others think of us and want to be
liked.1However, there are also many smaller, simpler things you can do, which can affect how others view you.
●Prove you are paying attention.
To really show someone your interest in him or her, try bringing up a topic the person mentioned earlier. Did your co-worker talk about working with his son on a science fair project last week? Follow up and ask how it went.2In fact, sometimes it says more that you can recall and show interest in even the small happenings in another person's life.
●Handle criticism in a wise way.
While you want to be generous with your praise, be careful with your criticism. For example, if someone makes an error, don't call that person out in front of a
group.3Anyhow, be always gentle with criticism and only offer it when it's truly needed.
●Ask for advice.
Asking someone for advice is a great way to get people to like you. It shows that you respect the other individual's opinion.4When you make someone feel better about himself or herself, that person will most certainly end up liking you for it.
●5
Most people love to talk about themselves. If you are asking questions and getting people to talk about themselves, they'll leave the conversation thinking that you're the coolest.
A. Do something to be remembered.
B. Everyone likes to feel needed and important.
C. It doesn't have to be a big, life-changing event.
D. Ask other people about their lives and interests.
E. You can discuss your own mistakes before digging into someone else's errors.
F. The basics of getting people to like you are obvious—be nice, considerate, and polite.
G. Basically, you ask for a favor, the other person does it for you, you thank them, and they end up liking you more.

A smiling face with tears, or "Tears of joy", was chosen as the most popular emoji globally in 2016, according to a report published by Chinese tech start-up Kika.
In 2015, emojis were the country's fastest-growing language in the UK and "Tears of joy"
also1（become）the Oxford English Dictionary's word of the year, making it popular on social media worldwide.
As a language expert pointed out, the reasons for this are as follows. For one
thing,2the development of the Internet, especially the popularity of smartphones, English alone is proving not enough3（meet）the needs of
21st-century digital4（communicate）. For example, emojis can
offer5（great）freedom than verbal language. Meanwhile, compared with text messages, they are often more intuitive（直观的） and simpler,6is also the reason why more and more people choose to express their emotions and ideas
by7（use）emojis.
Even if you don't send emojis yourself, you will8（probable）receive them. However, nobody can definitely tell whether emojis will finally come to look Something more like traditional language that we understand and use daily some day or they are just in fashion
for9while like many things. "After all, it's an addition to language rather than a language10（it）, " Dr Drummond says.
