Toronto houses over 100 ethnic (民族的) groups that speak over 140 languages. Here’re some things about visiting Toronto.
Best Months to Visit
The best times to visit Toronto are from late April to May and from September to October. The busiest time is in summer. But as it gets warmer, prices also go up. If you want to save money on hotels, bring a warm coat and visit in winter. If you want good prices and nice weather, spring or fall can be the best choice.
Culture and Customs
Though English and French are Canada’s two official languages, you’ll also likely to hear Spanish, Russian, Polish, Chinese (including Mandarin and Cantonese) and so on. This is all thanks to Toronto’s ever-increasing immigrant (移民) population. There are a variety of cultures and customs here.
What to Eat
As one of the world’s most multicultural cities, not only does Toronto have a Little Italy, but there’s also Chinatown, and Greektown. There are so many foods worth exploring here that you may have to plan another trip or two.
Getting Around Toronto
The best way to get around Toronto is by using public transportation. The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has three types of transport: subway, streetcar, and bus. These run throughout the city and suburbs. If you don’t want to use public transportation, you can walk or bike instead. To get to the Toronto Pearson International Airport, you can use the subway or take a taxi. Taking a taxi will cost much, but the subway is much cheaper.
1. When may prices of products rise in Toronto
A. In spring. B. In summer. C. In fall. D. In winter.
2. Which is the official language in Toronto
A. French. B. Spanish. C. Russian. D. Mandarin.
3. How many ways of getting around Toronto does the author mention
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
B
“When I was young, I had so much energy and I loved building things. If I had an idea, I had to build something
right now using what I could find around me,” says Danish artist Thomas Dambo. When Dambo was seven years old, he bought a mountain of cushions (垫子) from a nearby market to build a game room in his parents’ house. As a teenager, he built a “crazy” castle in his backyard.
Years later, 42-year-old Dambo is proudly showing his latest work: a giant (巨人) called Little Lui. Five meters tall, Little Lui is one of the six giants placed in the corners of Peel Region of Western Australia, which will be on show for at least a year. This work makes Dambo’s giants up to 99 around the world. His gentle giants have found homes in many different countries, as far as the United States, Belgium, China, Denmark, South Korea and now in Australia.
“For me, giants represent the voice of nature,” Dambo says. This deep respect for nature is the focus of Dambo’s building works. Dambo’s giants are made almost from local recycled wood: their faces from second-hand furniture and their hair from tree branches and leaves. It took about 750 hours to complete a giant. Each giant was built out in nature.
“I hope by visiting the giants, people will think of rubbish as a resource. I think it’s really important that next generations are connected to nature,” Dambo says. “That’s why I tried to build the giants to attract young people. I want people to be inspired and to realize they don’t need a lot to create something big and beautiful.”
4. Which of the following can best describe young Dambo
A. Shy. B. Creative. C. Self-focused. D. Weak.
5. What can we know about Little Lui
A. It will be shown to the public. B. It’s Dambo’s first giant.
C It is kept underground. D. It was built in Denmark.
6. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The cost of the giants.
B. The appearance of the giants.
C. What the giants stand for.
D. What people think of the giants.
7. What does Dambo plan to do with his giants
A. Inspire more people to take risks.
B. Help people spend less time playing games
C. Encourage the young to get close to nature.
D. Call on the young to keep our environment clean.
C
A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and helpful. She received compliments on her appearance and even some content from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as a method of dealing with extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often related to things happening on the Internet. “At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. “But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only depend on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.”
8. What is the purpose of praise groups
A. To make ordinary people popular. B. To solve people’s problems.
C. To share common interests. D. To make others happy and confident.
9. What can we learn about Meng Zha from paragraph 3
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was satisfied with the service.
C. She was under working stress D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
10. What does the underlined word “uplifting” in the fourth paragraph mean
A. Surprising and rare. B. Exciting and cheerful.
C. Sad and unforgettable. D. Worrying and uncomfortable
11. How does the group praise others in the last paragraph according the member
A. Honestly. B. Easily. C. Slightly. D. Informally.
D
A recent study carried out by using 28 years of data has proved the old saying: There’s no such thing as a free lunch. In the study, scientists found that dolphin mothers that interact (互动) with boaters (乘船游乐者) have nearly twice as many babies as female dolphins that stay away. But those babies are nine times more likely to die before reaching adulthood. The number one cause of their death in Sarasota Bay is related to sport fishing. That high death rate brings about a problem for the population as a whole.
In the United States, feeding dolphins is illegal under the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, but it still happens often. Even though we might not mean to feed them, with just our presence, these animals are used to being around humans more. That closeness increases a dolphin’s risk of being struck by a boat, trapped in a fishing line, or caught by a fishing hook.
Dolphins are smart and social animals and their begging has motivations. Getting fish from people instead of hunting could allow female dolphins to save time and energy that they can instead put toward reproduction (繁殖). It makes sense that the dolphins eating up bait (诱饵), getting fish from a fisher’s line, and approaching boats for food can have more babies. However, studies of other species around the world, such as green sea turtles in the Bahamas, show that animals that become dependent on human handouts stop hunting for food. This is true of Sarasota Bay’s dolphins, and it’s a preference that they pass on. Dolphins from one family have been approaching boats for four generations. That behavior is even more dangerous for the youngsters — little dolphins can be killed by boats or fishing equipment as they try to stay close to their moms.
For these dolphin mothers, losing babies one by one likely causes emotional suffering. Over time, this stress on female dolphins and the deaths of so many babies could cause population numbers to fall.
We can’t stop the dolphins from interacting with humans. But we can teach people to enjoy wild animals from a safe distance. And for dolphins’ own good, stop giving them food.
12. What can we learn about female dolphins interacting with humans
A. They can help increase the number of dolphins.
B. They may suffer less from sport fishing.
C. They may look for food move actively.
D. They can have more baby dolphins.
13. Why do dolphins like being around people
A. To get food like fish from them.
B. To hunt more fish on their own.
C. To play with fishing lines or hooks.
D. To teach their babies to swim faster.
14. What does the author suggestion people do
A. Stop dolphins from following boats.
B. Stop raising young dolphins.
C. Stop feeding dolphins.
D. Stop sport fishing.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Dolphins’ population
B. Enjoy wild animals closer
C. Dolphins’ interaction with boaters
D. Keep a safe distance from dolphins

As we all know, entering a new high school is both an exciting and challenging experience. Mark was born and brought up in California. The sun, the beaches, and the friends he’d known since kindergarten were all parts of his world. But at the age of 16, everything changed. His parents got new jobs in Ohio, and the family had to move there. It was a difficult decision, as it meant leaving behind everything Mark knew and loved.
Along with the move came a new school for Mark. He felt upset every time he thought about saying goodbye to his former school. He was afraid of the change, like the new city, the new school, and the new people he would meet. He didn’t know if he could fit in or if he would be lonely there.
After a long journey across the country, the family arrived and finally settled in Ohio. When it was time to go to his new school, Mark’s mind was filled with worries. What if the students were unfriendly and even cold What if he couldn’t make any new friends
The next morning, Mark’s parents drove him to school. His heart was beating in his chest as they pulled up to a big brick building. He hugged his mom and dad, took a deep breath, and stepped out of the car. With each step towards the school gate, his anxiety grew. He felt like he was walking into a whole new world.
Mark was greeted by a school secretary, who was very friendly. Seeing that Mark was nervous and shy, shedecided to show Mark around the school yard first. Mark was led to the modern computer lab, the science lab, and the huge gym with a basketball court where Mark imagined trying out for the school team. As they walked around, Mark gradually felt the school seemed nice, starting to feel a little better.
Finally, they got to the teaching building and headed for Mark’s new classroom, and Mark’s heart started racing again. The school secretary led him to the door and gave Mark an encouraging smile.

【答案】One possible version:
Mark looked at the classroom and felt a little nervous (紧张的).Then he took a deep breath and entered the classroom. He noticed that all eyes were fixed on him as he walked in. It was quiet for a moment and he felt his face getting hot. Trying to calm himself down, he knew he was supposed to introduce himself. Though his voice was shaky, Mark managed to tell them a little about himself. After the introduction, the class clapped and cheered warmly and they seemed happy to have him there, which was quite a surprise and comfort for Mark. He started to calm down, and he began to feel like maybe he could make friends here.
After some time, Mark realized that he could fall in love with the new class. As the day went on, Mark found that what he had worried about was unnecessary. The classes were interesting, and the teachers were helpful. During the breaks, he was surrounded by the enthusiastic classmates and they chatted about their interests and had fun together. After school, some of the students invited him to play basketball in the school gym. The day ended up with surprise and happiness. Mark realized that change wasn’t always bad. It was scary at first, but it led him to new experiences and friendships, He learned that he could be stronger than he had thought and that he could adapt to the new situation quite soon.
