【題目】 One of the most exciting parts of senior year is deciding where your class will go on your senior trip. It’s a time when you get to relax and celebrate getting through the past thirteen years with your class. Many schools use money their class has saved over the years and organization of the trip is done with the student union and teachers. If your school doesn’t organize class trips, you can gather your closest friends and take a trip.

Los Angeles

Los Angeles, California is the center of the entertainment industry. In Los Angeles enjoy Universal Studios amusement park and Hollywood Walk of Fame for entertainment.

Orlando, Florida

Orlando, Florida is a great location to go for your senior trip. It is the home of Walt Disney World, where thrill seekers can enjoy the roller-coasters and other rides. Others may want to enjoy the environment and Disney atmosphere, which is enjoyable for adults and children alike.

Salt Lake City

For a colder trip, spend the days skiing and take the evening to curl up (蜷作一團(tuán)) in front of a fire and socialize in the mountains of Utah. Try different restaurants in the area or visit local attractions for a change of pace. Most ski popular holiday centers close for the season in mid-April so if this is a choice, plan for the trip in March or earlier.

New York City

New York City, the Big Apple, is a great location for students that attend countryside schools. Students that live in farm country without the noise of a large city will enjoy the action that is happening continuously, no matter what time of day or night. Students can visit well-known areas such as the Statue of Liberty and Central Park, along with visiting some museums. There are multiple hotels and restaurants to suit any tastes.

C.history museums

D.entertainment industry

【題目】Forget Cyclists, Pedestrians are Real Danger

We are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from our readers.

Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.

People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade (避讓) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision.

The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others.

——Michael Horan

I loved the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.

I was walking across Altrincharn Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.

The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.

The police do nothing. What a laugh they are!

The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent (發(fā)熒光的)jacket and tights at night and in the morning. They should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.

——Carol Harvey

Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.

I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.

Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?

It’s about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be traced and there might be an opportunity to claim.

——JML

Write to Viewpoints of the newspaper.

【1】Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that ________.

A.drivers should be polite to cyclists

B.road accidents can actually be avoided

C.some pedestrians are a threat to road safety

D.walking while using phones hum one’s eyes

【2】Carol Harvey suggests that cyclists should ________.

A.be provided with enough roads

B.be asked to ride on their own lanes

C.be made to pay less tax for cycling

D.be fined for laughing at policemen

【3】The underline word “they” in the third letter refers to ________.

A.accidentsB.vehicles

C.pedestriansD.cyclists

【4】The three letters present viewpoints on ________.

A.real sources of road danger

B.ways to improve road facilities

C.measures to punish road offences

D.increased awareness of road rules

【題目】How to Be a Pleasant Person

We all would love to be appreciated for the positive emotions that are exhibited around our surroundings. Little do we know that it is not a hard task at all. 【1】

Be modest. Understand that we all are humans. You might be rich or poor, black or white, short or tall etc. But above all we are all humans, which means we are all emotional beings. So treat others the way you would like to be treated.

【2】 By offering a seat to an elderly person or throwing the football back to the young child, the inner self-satisfaction you get is priceless. Once you do so, you will feel good about yourself.

Don’t regret. We all are reasonable beings and it is very human to do unreasonable things at times. However, it does not mean that we should regret what we did in the past. Every experience is a lesson which teaches you what to do and what not to do in future. 【3】

Forgive and forget. Always living in the past will only make one painful on the inside, which will reflect on the outside. 【4】 By doing so, your heart becomes light.

Be grateful. Thank God and the Universe for yourself, your parents, your friends, your clothes, jobs, food, home etc. And every small thing makes a difference. 【5】 It will make you appreciate life.

A. Be helpful.

B. Be inspired.

C. So be proud that you have learnt a lesson on your own.

D. The following steps will help you to be a pleasant person.

E. To have a pleasant emotion around you, it is better to let go.

F. If possible, express your gratefulness for something every day.

G. Throw flowers at others if you wish flowers to be thrown at you.
