Prague is cracking! My sister was right. It really is one of Europe’s most popular tourist attractions, which has beautiful old buildings. So far, my favourite place is Prague Castle. I think it is the largest ancient castle in the world. Prague also has a lot of cultural events, like the World Dance Festival. I went to a ballet just last night.

I’ve come to Shanghai at the right time. Summer has begun, but it is not too hot yet. Yesterday was the Dragon Boat Festival. It was exciting! If you come to Shanghai, you should see the Bund—a street with very nice shops, nightclubs, and hotels. There are many tourists there. It has some wonderful buildings from the 1930s.
I went on a night cruise(乘船游览) of the Huangpu River last night. I met some great people on the boat, mostly foreigners, like me.
—Stan
Buenos Aires is a fun city, but six days is not enough time for a visit! I’m staying near the mile-long shopping street called Calle Florida. It is a great place to meet people and watch dancers perform that tango. Buenos Aires is the birthplace of the tango.
I also spent a day in the suburb of Tigre. It’s about 30 km from the capital, and you can get there quickly by train. However, I chose to take a boat on the canals(运河) of the Parana River Delta.

A day in the life of 18-year-old David Lanster is full of teenage activities: school, baseball practice, and homework. And then he starts cooking. “Some nights I’m up until 1 am making pies, or even later if we’re cooking beef,” said the student at Ransom Everglades School in Florida, US.
For the past year, Lanster and Kelly Moran, his classmate, have been hosting fancy dinner parties at Lanster’s parents’ home. Their meals have 17 courses and are all made by them. Their guests used to give them gifts to thank them, until the pair decided to do something nice for charity. “We got some really great Miami Heat tickets, a nice watch, and many kitchen machines,” Lanster said. “But we wanted to make this something positive for people rather than us.”
Lanster and Moran focused on Common Threads, a charity(慈善机构) that helps to teach kids in the poor neighbourhood to cook and make healthy eating choices. The young cooks ask their guests to give however much they want as payment for their meals. It all goes to Common Threads because Lanster’s parents cover their food costs. After their last 12-person event, Lanster and Moran gave $1,600 to the charity. Now, they’re taking their show out of the kitchen and on the road. Lanster and Moran have started to organize private dinner parties in a similar way: the host pays for the ingredients(食材), and the guests make a donation(捐赠) to charity.
Outside the kitchen, the two are busy preparing their college application. Neither is sure what they will do in the future, but they’ve promised their parents that they’ll leave cooking alone until they finish high school.

( )5.What can we infer about Lanster and Moran?

A.Selfish and reliable. B.Creative and helpful.

( )7.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.A great cook B.Eat as you wish
C.Helping by cooking D.Cooking for school fees

BRAZIL—The newly elected president of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, says that his country should withdraw(退出) from the 2015 Paris Agreement, and that Brazil’s rainforest protections are standing in the way of economic success. During the election campaign, he promised to ease(减缓) protections for areas of the Brazilian Amazon set aside for native people and wildlife. Are Brazil’s rainforests in danger?
The Amazon, the world’s largest rainforest, is called“the lungs of the planet”. Each tree takes in and stores carbon dioxide from the air around it. Billions of trees pull up water through their roots and release water vapour into the air, forming tiny drops of water. The Amazon creates 30 to 50 per cent of its own rainfall. Carlos Nobre, a climate scientist, says that it is almost impossible to say just how important the rainforest is to the planet’s living systems.
Some of Bolsonaro’s support comes from business and farming groups. One supporter, Luiz Carlos, noted that farmers “are not invaders, they are producers”. He blamed(责备) the past government for supporting rainforest protections at the cost of farmers.“Brazil,” he said,“will be the biggest farming nation on Earth during Bolsonaro’s years.”
Paulo Artaxo, a professor of environmental physics at the University of Sao Paulo, says that if Bolsonaro keeps his campaign promises, then“deforestation(毁林) of the Amazon will probably increase quickly—and the effects will be felt everywhere on the planet”.
Other scientists warn that if the Amazon and other tropical rainforests lose too many trees, this could affect rainfall in other areas. Without enough trees to support the rainfall, the longer and bigger dry season could turn more than half of the rainforests into tropical grassland.
( )8.According to the passage, rainforests can .
A.produce much farmland
B.examine people’s lungs
C.change the earth’s living systems
D.destroy farmers’ crops
( )9.The first paragraph is intended to .
A.attract the public to the newly elected president
B.ask people to ease the protection of rainforests
C.draw people’s attention to the disappearing rainforests
D.complain about the new government’s withdrawing
( )10.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The new president’s supporters care less about farmers.
