Music and art festivals are fun and exciting events. If you' re planning to go to a festival, it's important to plan your trip carefully to ensure that you' re safe and have a good time.
■Bring clothes to keep warm or cool

Pick up a less expensive tent with enough room for you and your friends and pack a comfortable sleeping bag for yourself, If you don't want to camp at the festival, remember to book an AirBnb or a hotel room nearby!
■Place a first aid kit in a proper place

Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to an Australian study. The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, "Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention."
"People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention," Coker said on the university's website. "Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increases productivity（生产效率）," he said.
According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. "Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching videos, using social networking sites or shopping online," said Coker. "That's not always a good idea."
However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation（适度）, or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office.
"Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without," he said.
24. What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show
A. People who surf the Internet are good employees.
B. Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.
C. The Internet is becoming more and more important in people's life.
D. Surfing the Internet for fun at times during office hours increases productivity.
25. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities
A. Watching videos. B. Reading online news.
C. Reading online novels. D. Playing online games.
26. The underlined word "block" in Paragraph 4 means "____________”.
A. stop B. organize C. protect D. separate
27. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.
B. Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.
C. Most people don't surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.
D. People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.
C
The words "protect animals" appear everywhere in books and on screens because some animals are in danger of dying out. But sometimes the reality can be a little different from what people read or watch.
About 300 black bears were killed in Florida, the US, in October, 2015. It's been the first bear hunt since 1994.
Animal protection groups protested this decision. But local officials explained that the black bear population had grown to 3,500 and become a menace to local people. In the past two years, bears have hurt at least four people in Florida.
This brings an old question back into the spotlight—which is more important, protecting animals or protecting people's interests
This question is asked in other countries too. In Switzerland, a wolf was sentenced to death by the Swiss government months ago. This is because the wolf killed 38 sheep and local people lost a lot of money. Days ago in China, three old men were arrested for killing a serow（鬣羚）, a protected species. But they insisted they didn't know about this and killed the animal because it ruined their crops.
However, these stories don't always mean that animal protection stops due to human interests, especially when it is related to economic development. A man named Zhou Weisen set up a wild animal base in Guilin, Guangxi. He saved over 170 tigers and 300 bears. But his base also offered jobs to local people.
"There may never be a standard answer to the question of whether we should give more attention to the environment or human development," said Robert May, a British biologist at Oxford University. "But we shouldn't push either one to the side, as the future is hanging in the balance."
28. In October 2015, Florida held its first bear hunt after about__________.
A. five years B. ten years C. fourteen years D. twenty-one years
29. What does the underlined word "menace" in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Danger. B. Chance. C. Relief. D. Treasure.
30. What does the author intend to tell us by mentioning Zhou Weisen's story
A. Protecting animals needs hard work.
B. Zhou was good at feeding wild animals.
C. Zhou had a good relationship with local people.
D. Protecting animals can bring economic development.
31. Which of the following statements might Robert May agree with
A. Human development should be considered first.
B. We should pay more attention to animal protection.
C. We should consider both the environment and human interests.
D. It's difficult to find proper ways to solve environmental problems.
D

第四部分写作
Good morning , my dear friends. I’m Li Hua.
Knowing you’re keen on traditional Chinese culture, I'd like to introduce a traditional Chinese festival- -the Dragon Boat Festival to you.
The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Double Fifth Festival, falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. On that day, we usually eat zongzi —sticky rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. As the festival name shows, people hold dragon boat races to celebrate it, especially in the southern places in memory of Qu Yuan, a great poet of ancient China. Therefore, it’s regarded as a day of mourning and cherishing the memory.
Thanks for your listening.
