Travel Smarter
Travel plan
Make a travel plan before hitting the road. It can be as rough or detailed as suits your trip, or your personality, but know the outline of where you want to go and what you want to see. If you are organizing your own trip, start by checking how the professionals do it. Findout what travel agents and guidebooks recommend and then customize it to fit your needs.
Booking trips
Do your homework and get better deals. Always shop around and compare prices. Never assume some company is cheaper or better because it is bigger or more widely known. Search for booking tips that work for your circumstances. The more flexible you are with your dates, the better chance you have of getting the prices down.
Make travel budget
Making a travel budget will save you money if you follow it. Keep track of what you are spending while travelling and make sure you do not exceed your overall budget. Follow your budget in principle, not too strictly, because that will spoil your enjoyment. Make sure you're well-prepared for unexpected fun things to do or see.
Keep a travel journal
Most people tend to forget things quickly, so keeping a travel journal is a good idea. You will enjoy reading it in the years to come. You can of course use pen and paper but modern technology can make keeping travel journal easier and more fun than ever. You can add photos and share your experience with your family and friends, or even with like-minded strangers.
21. What should we do to get better deals
A. Do the shopping online. B. Buy products from big shops.
C. Buy products from famous companies. D. Compare prices between different shops.
22. What does the author advise us to do
A. Avoid unexpected activities. B. Follow a flexible travel budget.
C. Ask travel agents to make a plan. D. Use pen and paper instead of iPad.
3. What's the passage mainly about
A. Some tips on travelling. B. Some advantages of travelling.
C. How to enjoy your travel. D. How to prepare for a travel

French lawmakers have voted to ban the use of mobile phones by students in primary and middle schools.
The government said the new law would improve concentration in class, while helping to prevent cyber(网络的) bullying and the viewing of unhealthy contents. However, critics said the ban would be difficult to carry out.
The bill was the result of a campaign promise made by President Emmanuel Macron last year. Members of the National Assembly supported the move in a show of hands on Thursday and it now goes to the Senate(参议院).
Under the new measures, children up to the age of 15 will have to keep their mobile phones out of sight while at school.
Education minister Jean-Michel Blanquer said the measures were "a law for the 21st Century, a law for addressing the digital revolution". "Being open to technologies of the future doesn't mean we have to accept all their uses, he told MPs.
A 2016 survey showed that 9 out of every 10 French students aged 12 to 17 owned a mobile mon complaints by teachers include pupils texting friends and chatting on social media during lessons.
About half of France's 51, 000 primary schools and 7, 000 middle schools already ban their use, but ministers say measures need to be put on a stronger legal basis, Speaking ahead of the parliamentary(议会的) vote, Philippe Vincent of the school directors' union SNPDEN told AFP news agency that they supported the move because it promotes the process.
If approved, the ban is due to come into force for the new academic year in September. The new law does not make clear what punishment students face for breaking the new rules and lawyers have said that teachers are not within their rights to take non- dangerous belongings from pupils.
28. Why did some people criticize the ban
A. It is short of legal basis. B. It is hard to put into practice.
C. It doesn't open to technologies. D. It doesn't protect students' right.
29. What attitude did Jean-Michel Blanquer take towards the ban
A.Opposed. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Ambiguous.
30. What do we learn about French schools
A. Mobile phones were encouraged in the past. B. Mobile phones aren't allowed in some of them.
C. Half of middle school students have a mobile phone.
D. Mobile phones are completely banned in the classroom.
31. What can we infer about the ban
A. It will be passed soon. B. It won't be approved.
C. Students will support it. D. Teachers will welcome it.
D
The quality of our seafood has been in the news a lot lately. A new study has found that people who eat seafood are also eating plastic--11, 000 pieces of microplastic per year to be exact.
Researchers at the University of Ghent in Belgium found that seafood eaters are consuming plastic at a concerning rate.
“Per serving of mussels(贻贝), which contains about 300 grams of mussel meat, you get 300 pieces of plastic inside your body," researchers wrote. Researchers don't yet know the implications of eating microplastic, but they worry that it could have negative consequences on our health.
While we don't know what microplastic does yet to humans, we do know what it does to sea animals. In prior studies, scientists have found that when fish eat microplastics, it prevents their growth and changes their feeding patterns. In fact, fish will stop eating natural sources of nutrients(营养物质), and only go for plastic.
When you're done using plastic, a small portion may be recycled. However, more than likely it's in a landfill or making its way towards the ocean. Once trash hits the water, sea creatures may mistake it for food. This often leads to poisoning or death. If the ocean animal gets caught for human consumption, the plastic may very well make its way back to you—on your dinner plate.
According to a study published in Science magazine, eight million tons of plastic go into our waterways every year. The problem is so serious that scientists say that by 2050 the weight of plastic in our oceans will outweigh fish. And just because it's out of sight, doesn't mean it should be out of mind.
There's no immediate way to prevent microplastic from ending up in your body .However, you can help reduce the amount of plastic reaching rivers, lakes and oceans in the first place. You can make a difference with your choices every day. Even small changes will add up. While your salmon dinner may contain microplastic, you can help prevent the future generations from having that same problem.
32. What does the underlined word "implications" probably mean
A. Real functions. B. Possible effects. C. Logical reasons. D. Potential benefits.
33. What do we learn about microplastics in the oceans
A. They make fish grow quickly. B. Fish are sick and tired of them.
C. Fish tend to be addicted to them. D. They don't affect fish's eating habits.
34. Which proverb can best summarize the main idea of Paragraph 5
A. You get what you pay for. B. There is no smoke without fire.
C. Everything happens for a reason. D. What goes around comes around.
35. What's the writer's purpose of writing the last paragraph
A. To give us a final warning. B. To appeal to us for action.
C. To offer us a brief summary. D. To send us a gentle reminder.

Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us, as honesty is always regarded as a virtue (美德). Every time I talk about the topic, something crowds in my mind as if it had just happened.
I was 16 when one morning. Dad told me I could drive him to Mijas and then take the car in a nearby garage(汽车修理厂)to get it serviced. At that time, I had just passed the driving test, and I hardly had a chance to use the car, so I said yes without hesitation.
I drove Dad to Mijas, promising to pick him up again at 4 pm, then I went to a nearby garage, and put the car in there. Since I had several hours to spare, I decided to go to a movie theater near the garage to see the movie. However, I was so absorbed in the plot of the movie that I forgot the time. When the last movie finished, I looked at my watch: 6 pm. I was two hours late!
I thought Dad would be very angry if he knew what I was doing. And he would never let me drive again. So I decided to make up an excuse. Then, I drove to the appointed place, Dad was sitting in a corner, waiting patiently. I first apologized for being late, then told him that I wanted to get there as soon as possible, but that something was wrong with some of the main parts of the car. I would never forget the way he looked at me. "I'm very disappointed that you thought you had to lie to me, Jason."Dad looked at me again and said, "When you didn't show up on time, I called the garage and asked if there was anything wrong. They told me you never picked up the car. So, you see, I know there's nothing wrong with the car at all."

Caring for the Environment Starts from ourselves
World Environment Day falls on June 5th every year. It reflects the attitude of people around the world towards environmental issues and expresses human pursuit of a better environment.
As young students, we should promote environmental protection and start from the things around us, such as caring for every plant and tree in the school, and actively participate in various public activities that care for nature. In addition, we should also obey the rules of the school, striving to be good students with good manners, which will contribute to the construction of the most beautiful campus.
It is everyone’s responsibility to protect the environment. Take action and our earth will be a better place to live on.

A wave of guilt swept over me. I had to admitthat I had gone to the movies and forgotten the time.Dad listened carefully and then said, "I'm angry, notwith you but with myself. You see. I realize I havefailed as a father if after all these years you feel thatyou have to lie to me. I have failed because I havebrought up a son who cannot even tell the truth to hisown father."
"I'm going to walk home and think what I didwrong, "Dad said to me. "But Dad, it's overeighteen miles from our home. You can't walk back,"I begged. Despite my apologies, Dad said nothing butbegan walking. I had let him down and made him insuch a pain. Driving in the car behind Dad, I felt itwas the longest way I had gone. I've learned a painfulbut a most useful lesson--honesty always comes firstat all times.
