How much should you at least pay if your family (five persons, including an elderly person, two adults and the ten-year-old twins) visit the park?A. 24.50 B.25.50 C.26.50 D.27.5033. Which is TRUE according to the passage?A. There are endangered animals in the park.B. There arent any picnic areas in the park.C. You cant take the babies to the park.D. You can visit the park with your dogs.BIn April, 2013, I visited Yangzhou.Ge Garden is very beautiful and peaceful. The ticket has a map on the back of it that I didnt noticed until I had already left. But to be honest, I dont think that map is very useful because it isnt very clear and detailed. In my opinion, its better to improve it. Compared with Ge Garden, the map on the back of the ticket for He Garden is much clearer, more detailed and more useful. However, in the room that has the picture of the family members, there is only Chinese, no English, so my advice is to add English in interesting places. I got lost in the Slender West Lake. I spent about 30 minutes just trying to get out of one area. I think they need more signs posted along the trails. I like the Slender West Lake best, as she is so pretty! The ladies that were sweeping were very sweet. They always smiled at me and said hello, so it was nice.Taking a taxi is the most efficient(有效率的) and quickest way to get around Yangzhou. I didnt have a problem getting to the places which Id like to go to while using a taxi. The driver was very friendly. The fare isnt too high, either. But I didnt enjoy taking the bus. The bus ride to the Mastixia Bay (茱萸灣公園) took long although I only had to pay one yuan. It was also hard finding where Bus 32 was. I tried asking some people in English but they couldnt understand me, so I had to ask in simple Chinese that I only know buy that still didnt work. I spent about one hour walking around the city to look for Bus 32. The tricycle(三輪車) was nice, but it was a little too expensive for a small distance. Maybe I was ripped off by the guy who rode for me, but it was an enjoyable ride. I felt like I was part of the garden city more.Over all I am satisfied with Yangzhou and will recommend it to others.34. How many places of interest are mentioned in the passage?A. Three B. Four C. Five D. Six35. The underlined phrase “ripped off” in Paragraph 3 may mean “_”.A. 優(yōu)惠 B. 退款 C. 騙錢 D. 免費36. Which of the following I NOT the writhers advice?A. English should be added in interesting places.B. Everyone in Yangzhou should speak English.C. The Slender West Lake needs more signs along the trails.D. The maps on the tickets for Ge Garden need improving.37. We can infer（推斷） the passage may be written by _.A. a foreign visitor B. a lady sweeping in the parkC. a taxi driver D. a guy riding a tricycleC On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act would change their lives.Sarah didnt realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85,000 and there seems to be no end yet.That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And thats not allThanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris who he had been unable to find for 27 years.All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thingreturning something that did not belong to him.38. When did Sarah realize that she had also given Billy her diamond ring?A. On February 9th, 2013 B. On February 10th, 2013C. On February 18th, 2013 D. On February 22nd 2013 39.
