Plan on traveling around the USA? There are a number of outstanding websites that can make your American dream come true.
This is the latest offering that features 101 holiday ideas to the USA. It’s a diverse selection, ranging from touring in the footsteps of Martin Luther King to a golfing break in Arizona and a cycling and wine-tasting trip in California’s Napa Valley. Narrow down what you’re looking for—whether by price, region, theme and who will be traveling—and then just the photos of the relevant holidays remain on view. It’s a really clever design.
The National Scenic Byways Program covers 150 memorable roads. Some are natural scenic routes, such as Route 1 along the California coast. Others focus on history (such as Route 66) or man-made attractions (the Las Vegas Strip). For each, you’re provided with a map telling the route’s length and how long is allowed.
This is the best website for reviews of hotels in US cities and tourist sites. There are photos of each hotel. Importantly, these are not promotional photos provided by the hotels, but more honest and revealing ones taken by inspectors. From the 243 hotels reviewed in New York, you can narrow down what you are looking for by locations, facilities and styles, or just pick out a selection of the best.
SeaWorld in San Diego can make dreams come true, but the price is not affordable for the majority of people. So turn to long-established , giving big discounts on tickets, hotel and dining at SeaWorld.

Yesterday I went to the nursing home to visit my grandma. She just got out of the hospital recently where she had some serious operations. I wanted to surprise her after work so I stopped by for a quick visit.
When I got there she was happy to see me. We hugged,kissed and exchanged greetings. Then I heard a woman crying. It was my grandma's roommate. The curtain was drawn so I could not see her. She started calling out a name that wasn't mine but she was certainly talking to me,begging me to go to her side of theroom.
I ignored her at first and continued visiting with my grandma. Then she started begging and
saying, “Please,come to see me!”So I went to see her.
When I drew the curtain back she looked so old but flashed me the biggest smile! She opened her arms wide for me to hug her so I bent low and gave her a hug. I sat on her bed and talked with her for a few minutes. She kept calling me by the other name but I did not correct her. She told me stories as if I had been there when theyhappened.
Finally I went back to talk with my grandma. Then the other woman started crying again,saying,”Please,come back.”She finally slept.
I stopped by the nurse's station and the nurse told me that the lady suffers from Alzheimer's. I mentioned the name she had called me. The nurse told me it was the lady's daughter's name. Then I understood why she wanted me to go to talk with her.

Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals can’t talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.
Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator(猎食动物) gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the “hurt” adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.
Another kind of bird’ the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.
Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They don’t make nests. Instead, they get into other birds’ nest s secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them.
Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winner’s hand and start fighting again.
Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps don’t hear them, and they don’t need to share their food.
As children, many of us learn the saying “You can’t fool Mother Nature.” But maybe you can’t trust her, either.
28.A plover protects its young from apredatorby .
A.getting closer to its young

B.Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away fromothers.
C.Cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making nonests.
D.Some clever scrub jays often steal their foodback.

Keeping secrets is a burden.
“Don’t tell anyone”. We hear these words when someone tells a secret to us. But it can be hard tokeepa secret. We're oftentemptedto “spill thebeans(说漏嘴)”,evenif weregret itlater.
According to Asim Shah, professor in the Menninger Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Baylor Co llege of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well “become a burden”. This is because people often have an “obsessive and anxious urge to share it with someone”.
An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of Notre Dame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted( 受委托的) with secrets can suffer from depression, anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail.
But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shah explained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close to them. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. “Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone,” according toShah.
He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out (泄露).But this doesn’t mean that it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people. A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything inside. To tell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret. Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret.
Shah said that to judge whether to t ell someone a secret, you’d better put yourself in their position. Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn’t give the information away. Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone’s secret you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isn’t so secretanymore.
32.What does underlined word “obsessive”mean?
A.Unwilling.
B.Confusing.
C.Refusing to acceptfacts.
D.Wanting to do something verymuch.
33.What did researchers at the University of Notre Dame discover aboutsecret-keeping?
A.It can help promote friendships between people.
B.It can result in mental and physicalproblems.
C.It can harm relationships betweenfriends
D.It can result in a sense of distrust betweenfriends
34.What is the main message of Paragraph5?
A.It’s better to share your secrets with quietpeople.
B.It’s not a good idea to share your secrets withothers.
C.Quiet people suffer less stress from keepingsecrets.
D.Talkative people are unlikely to keepsecrets.
35.What does Shah suggest people do if they give away some one’s secret byaccident?
A.Stay away from the person.
B.Exchange a new secret with theperson.
C.Tell the affected person whathappened.
D.Buy the person a gift as anapology.
