Lonely Planet’s top places to go in 2024
Get your wishlist fired up! Lonely Planet just revealed its top travel destinations for the
year ahead. The Best in Travel 2024 list is expanded across several categories.
Top country destination
The No.1 country is Mongolia, chosen for its wide-open spaces, adventure activities, and
distinctive musical culture. This is the world’s most sparsely(稀少地) populated country and
the Mongolian government is ready to start filling it up a little. This year it declared 2023
through 2025 the “Years to Visit Mongolia”.

Top city destination
The top city Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, is known for its unique rhythms, locally inspired
restaurants, and its art venues. The Nairobi National Park, just a short drive out of the city’s
central business district, is a place where you can see more than 400 species wandering on the
open grass plains while skyscrapers(摩天大楼) twinkle on the skyline.
Sustainability
The top sustainable travel destination for 2024 is Spain, because of the country’s efforts to
expand renewable energy, to boost off-season travel and to bring tourism to newly-developed
destinations, such as the port city of Valencia, thereby easing pressures on hot spots such as
Barcelona.
Easy on the bank balance
The best-value category will be of particular interest to those living on a shoestring. The
under-explored American Midwest is the top tip here: in cities such as Chicago, Milwaukee and
Detroit, you’ll find old warehouses transformed into art studios, uniquely-designed hotels and
many Michelin-starred restaurants.
21. What can people do in Nairobi
A. Try different adventure activities. B. Visit Michelin-starred restaurants.
C. Watch animals walking on grass plains. D. Appreciate distinctive musical culture.
22. What is a reason for Spain to be chosen as a top travel destination
A. It has improved services in hot spots.
B. It offers discounts for off-season trips.
C. It is devoted to expanding renewable energy.
D. It has developed pressure-relieving programs.
23. Which of the following is most suitable for people on a tight budget
A. Mongolia. B. Nairobi. C. Spain. D. American Midwest.
B
Uninvited opinions about someone’s marriage, their constant failures or whatever just
happened in the bathroom are all clues you’ve got an Oversharer on your hands. Whether
they’re telling too much or asking for details you’re not comfortable sharing, this all-too
common persona has no boundaries.
“The discomfort you feel comes from a difference of standards about what topics of
conversation are OK,” says Wisner. “What they consider to be acceptable, need-to-know
information is different from what it is for you.”
At the same awkward time, the Oversharer is only trying to get closer to you by revealing
more about themselves—and hoping you’ll do the same. “We tend to label these people as
overly-curious, invasive(侵入的) or rude,” notes Gerber, “but they really just want to be liked
and accepted.”
To satisfy the Oversharer, and meanwhile reject endless TMI(too-much-information),
consider sharing something else—still personal but less invasive—that satisfies their urge to
connect. When they really cross the line, don’t be shy. Say something that indicates your
boundary is being crossed. But you don’t have to declare them to be rude or insist them change
their ways immediately. “OMG, that’s private!” says everything, and you’ll never have to bring
it up again.
A compliment(称赞) also works wonders with an Oversharer, adds Gerber, because it
refocuses the conversation in their direction while subtly resetting your boundary.
To my nosy friend who asks me when I plan to have a baby, for example, I will give this

wise response next time: “You made having kids look so easy! How’d you do it ” Then nod
and smile, nod and smile. Maybe I won’t have another baby in this life, but at least I’ll be ready
to face an Oversharer—or any of the challenging people it takes to make a world.
24. What is the function of the first paragraph
A. Shaping the image of an Oversharer.
B. Stressing the importance of boundaries.
C. Identifying the clues of an unpleasant talk.
D. Presenting different opinions about sharing.
25. Why are Oversharers so interested in talking about private issues
A. They want sympathy from others.
B. They see it as a way to break the ice.
C. They are curious about others’ sufferings.
D. They long for closer connections with others.
26. What is suggested if Oversharers cross your line
A. Ignore their comments. B. Demanding an apology.
C. Declaring your boundaries. D. Criticizing their rudeness.
27. What is the purpose of the author’s response in the last paragraph
A. To check her friend’s boundary. B. To show admiration for her friend.
C. To learn from her friend’s experience. D. To shift the topic to her friend’s direction.
C
The printed book is back. Recent studies have shown that students remember more
information when they read a hard-copy book compared to reading on a digital device.
We now judge printed books using the language of the digital world. E-books may come
with a set of “navigational(导航的) tools”, but it turns out the best navigational devices are
your forefinger and thumb. You can use them to turn the pages forward and backward. Fans of
digital books may point out that e-readers have a handy “search” tool. Old-fashioned books also
have a search function, which uses a device called a “bookmark”.
Fans of the e-book say that digital text is easy to make notes. Some devices even feature a
little image of a pencil to guide the reader through the process. Traditional-book users use real
“pencils”. With it, favoured passages can be underlined and comments can be written in the
margin(页边空白), such as “Not so, according to The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.”
Such books can be left around for others to read, convincing family members of your insight.
Admittedly, e-books are lighter than paper volumes, but one must question whether this is
really an advantage. In secondary school my body shape was actually transformed by the daily
need to carry textbooks. For me and my fellow students, placing these weighty books in our
backpacks would draw our shoulders back and our chests forward in a way that turned the
school into a military parade ground.
Tidying expert Marie Kondo has said that she keeps about 30 books at any one time. Those
who follow Kondo’s example may have a tidier home, but a large, well-stocked bookshelf is
more meaningful. It’s a map of your life as a reader: the passions that passed and those that
continued. There are books that introduced you to other books, and books that nursed you
through difficult times.
I don’t know whether the shift back to traditional books will last. But for the moment, I
find myself salute their glorious return.

28. What is a “search” tool of traditional books
A. Pencil. B. Bookmark.
C. Search engine. D. Forefinger and thumb.
29. What does paragraph 4 focus on
A. The popularity of traditional books. B. The lightweight design of e-books.
C. The wide use of e-books in classrooms. D. The possible good impact of weighty books.
30. How does the author explain the features of traditional books
A. By making comparisons. B. By collecting users’ feedback.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Call of the E-books B. The Victory of the Printed Book
C. The Differences in Reading Habits D. The Mystery of the Digital World
D
In 2014, then-57-year-old bioethicist Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel wrote an infamous essay titled,
“Why I Hope to Die at 75”. His argument boiled down to this: it’s not worth living as long as
humanly possible if those added years are characterized by disease and poor health.
Nearly a decade later, neither Emanuel’s mind nor the statistics have changed much.
Emanuel still says he plans to stop most life-extending medical care once reaching age 75. And
there is still a yawning gap between the average number of years people can expect to live and
the number of years they can expect to live in full health. Experts often refer to this as the gap
between “lifespan” and “healthspan”.
Healthspan, however, has consistently lagged behind, largely due to high rates of age-
associated diseases including cancer, dementia, and heart disease. Many people also don’t sleep
enough, exercise enough, or eat enough nutritious food, all of which can prevent people from
long-term well-being.
Closing the gap between lifespan and healthspan is an appealing goal. The American Heart
Association is striving to extend U.S. healthy life expectancy by at least two years over the
same decade. Meanwhile, startups are selling consumer-targeted solutions, like DNA tests that
give personalized recommendations around how to eat and exercise for extended health. And
some companies are developing therapies(疗法) meant to fight against the effects of aging.
Emanuel agrees that expanding healthspan is the right goal; he just has a different take on
what that should look like. Rather than developing new anti-aging drugs that would likely
attract wealthy people who can pay for them, Emanuel feels the medical system should tackle
long-standing health problems such as hypertension and diabetes which are treatable or
preventable, and are most common among the underserved populations that are also most likely
to die and develop diseases even younger than the national average. As he sees it, it is a more
urgent priority than chasing the “pipe dream” of a future in which aging is optional.
32. What does the underlined word “yawning” probably mean in Paragraph 2
A. Wide. B. Declining. C. Hidden. D. Strange.
33. What is a contributor to the gap between lifespan and healthspan
A. Lack of desire to live a long life.
B. Excessive sleep, exercise, and nutrition.
C. Frequent occurrence of age-related diseases.
D. Unavailability of life-extending medical care.

34. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about
A. Medical progress in anti-aging treatment.
B. Efforts being made to lengthen healthspan.
C. Different attitudes to lengthening healthspan.
D. Reasons for the gap between lifespan and healthspan.
35. What does Emanuel think is a sensible way to expand healthspan
A. Developing new anti-aging drugs. B. Dealing with existing health problems.
C. Providing personalized DNA tests. D. Offering practical advice on lifestyles.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项
为多余选项。
How many times have you checked your tickets, money and passport before you set off
Well, maybe add a note about food hygiene(卫生 ), too, as there are lots of food-borne
hazards(危害) to be mindful of when you travel.
Taking precautions doesn’t mean ignoring local food, culture and customs. 36 Food-
and water-related illnesses can vary from a touch of mild traveller’s stomach to more serious
infections. 37 You need to check up on the destinations to see if there are any common food-
related issues you need to know about.
In countries with doubtful water quality, avoid ice and—if you have no other option—
drink only unopened bottled water. Better still, take a reusable filtered (过滤) water bottle so
that you can drink the local water safely and not add to the mountain of single-use plastic waste.
38 Avoid any raw meat, fish, shellfish or eggs if you have any doubts, including under-
cooked foods or rare-cooked meats. When eating fruits and vegetables, they need to be
thoroughly cooked, and avoid salads that may be washed with polluted water. 39
If you’re being offered buffet food or shared plates, think about how long that food has
been sitting in the heat. It doesn’t take long at all for bacteria to multiply at alarming rates on
food, so where possible, choose refrigerated dishes or food that is piping hot.
40 If the thought crosses your mind about whether something is safe to consume, it’s
wise to assume it isn’t.
A. Avoiding them is all in the planning.
B. My guiding principle is: if in doubt, leave it out.
C. Wash your hands even more frequently than normal.
D. Don’t drink straight from fountains, hotel room taps, or streams.
E. Raw fruits with thick peels are okay if you prepare them yourself.
F. Trying local food is joyful, but it pays to know which dishes to avoid.
G. Instead, it means you can get enjoyment with minimum risk while travelling.

An Unforgettable Outdoor Team-building Activity
第二节(满分 25 分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Lek raced down the street, ran around the corner, and at last pushed open the door of his
parents’ restaurant. If he hurried, he might have time to make his krathong(水灯) before the
celebration started.
Tonight was Loy Krathong, the Festival of the Floating Lanterns. All over Thailand, people
would send out lighted candles in tiny boats along rivers so that the past year’s problems could
sail away with them and be replaced with wishes for the new year.
As Lek wrapped a pile of banana leaves around a bamboo base to form his boat, Lek
thought about his sister, Dao. She was too sick to float a krathong. Perhaps a wish on Loy
Krathong would take away her illness. Maybe then she would be able to laugh the way she used
to. He put four red flowers inside the banana leaves and in the middle, he placed a tall, white
candle.
“The river goddess will be pleased with your krathong,” his grandma looked at Lek’s boat
and said. “Tong will help you launch your boat. You are too small to do this by yourself.” She
gave him a serious look. “Now we must hurry to get ready for our customers.” Like last year,
only his brother Tong was allowed to launch krathongs into the river for their customers. But
this week, Lek had practiced launching the way Tong did and he was sure he could make it by
himself.
After washing piles of dishes, Lek realized that it was time to launch the krathongs. Lek
made his way outside through the crowd standing under the full moon, and spotted Tong
standing on the jetty(码头) and lowering a krathong into the water with his pole. Lek took out
matches and lit the candle on his tiny boat. He looked over his shoulder to see if his grandma
was watching. Then he lay down at the edge of the jetty and made a wish that Dao would get
better from that minute on. He lowered his krathong toward the water, stretching to reach its
surface.
注意:1.续写短文词数应为 150 左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
Suddenly, somehow, his krathong fell out of his hands into the dark water.
“Let’s make another one for Dao.” Tong said gently.
