It’s said that people travel to see the world. 1. You walk down different streets, hear different accents, and see different views. All of this is a great way to absorb a new location and learn as much as you can.

If you’re an history lover: 4. Sure, that’s a lot of places. But you’ve never felt quite as absorbed in the ancient world as walking around Athens and Rome.

If you’re an adventure seeker: Consider going to Australia. 5.

If you’re indecisive: Just choose them all and take a Semester at Sea. You’ll have your classes on a ship as it sails around the world, making stops at 15 cities in 11 countries.

A. And we hope to learn about ourselves in this newness.

B. Visiting a new place will change the way of living.

All young people dream of travelling the world. They are restless and very eager to see new sights. However, they have little idea how they would really do it if given the chance. Because their knowledge of geography is quite limited, they seldom know much about the places they wish to visit or how they would get there.

Already hundreds of thousands of Chinese student tourists are visiting these places-Wuyi, Lhasa, Lijiang, Dali, Vientiane and Phnom Penh. Indeed, these students will soon be the most travelled generation in China’s long history. The World Tourist Organization predicts that a quarter of a century from now the number of Chinese tourists going abroad will be twenty times what it is today. The largest percentage of these tourists will visit Southeast Asia. Not all Chinese who travel abroad will be tourists, however. More and more youths are deciding to volunteer their skills in this region; much like their peers in the Peace Corps and VSO.

Critical thinking skills required include planning for a trip and solving problems after the trip has begun. The focus is on how to read an atlas (地图集) to make travel plans and how to find ways of travelling. An atlas offers a wealth of information about geography and is one way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment. Use of an atlas especially addresses the needs of students with different visual and spatial (空间的) learning styles.

1.The main idea of the first paragraph is ________.

2.These places, Wuyi, Lhasa, Lijiang, Dali, Vientiane and Phnom Penh, lie in ________.

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

4.One way to increase students’ awareness of their global environment is for them to ____

5.The underlined phrase “a wealth of” can be replaced by “_________”.

When you take a walk in any city, you often see a lot of people walking dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reason why people keep a dog has changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect(保护) themselves against attacks by other beasts. Later they came to realize that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what was caught without permission.

These days people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks from animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery（抢劫）. But the most important reason is for companionship. For a child, a dog is a best friend when there are no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their natural children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.

1.According to the passage, in the old days people trained dogs ______ .

A. for protection against robbery

B. just for fun

C. for companionship

D. for protection against other animals

2.The word "companionship" may mean ______ .

A. native     B. advice     C. friendly relationship（关系）  D. usage

C. they were useful for protection

D. they did not eat other animals

The trouble with school is that you can’t choose the people you get to see every day. If you’re unlucky enough to be stuck with classmates who don’t really “get” you, you’ve just got to try to make the best of it.

But that doesn’t mean you need to “fit in”, or at least in the way that people think. If you try to transform yourself into a clone of everyone else, it won’t help you make friends. It’ll just make you feel like a fake.

You also shouldn’t shut down or refuse to be friends with everyone who doesn’t like you. If you do that, you’ll just make yourself miserable. Instead, you’ve got to work on being comfortable and confident with whom you are while ignoring（忽略）all the haters. Keep on speaking up, asking questions and getting to know people better. If you send out positive energy, then people will generally send some back to you. A couple of them will stay the same, and you’re allowed to forget about them.

If you feel like you’ve doing all that but still not getting anywhere, then don’t give up. Just expand your circle. Get a part-time job at a cool-looking place, join an after-school art class or youth group—do whatever it takes to find a couple of like-minded people to connect with. Even if you don’t find anyone right away, you’ll still be getting some more social experiences under your belt, and that’s always a good thing.

A fun book called Uncool, by Erin Elisabeth Conley, has some tips for folks like you who want to stay positive at school while being true to your personality:

• Throw caution to the wind.

• Don’t tolerate others’ mistakes.

• Have patience with people who are different from you.

• Don’t change just because someone else thinks you should.

• Know that even though you may be a misfit, there’s always some place where you will be welcomed in the world.

1.According to the author, what should you do if you meet people who don’t appreciate you?

A. Just give up.

B. Ask someone else for help.

C. Show positive attitude toward them

D. Try your best to fit in with them.

A. get more chances of making friends

B. lay a better foundation for your future jobs
