The adventurous pick: Costa Rica
Costa Rica is a popular spot that still feels undiscovered. Hike through lava fields or zip line above the jungle for an exciting adventure. Head to the beach with your favorite surfing board, do morning yoga, or simply relax all day. For a taste of local culture, visit a coffee farm or wander through Santa Teresa for drinks with a view.

B篇阅读答案:ABCD
We’re about 4 miles from Gallaudet University, where Solomon is a professor of biology. She and a student – Anna McCall – are taking a small boat to collect water samples from the Anacostia River. The river is no more than 8 miles long, but it goes through and around Washington, DC.
To McCall, who was born deaf, Solomon is more than a role model. She’s a great teacher, strict but fair. McCall said,“if it weren’t for Solomon, I couldn’t imagine doing this kind of work.”
7
Solomon, who won 13 gold medals in swimming in the Deaflympics, would never forget that polluted river near her house. A career in science and environmental studies became her passion. But she also found another passion ( 热情 ) : “How can I influence other deaf and hard-of-hearing students?”
有耐心和强有力的
诚实和勇敢
热情的和积极的
无私的和仔细的
从事科学和环境研究成了她的爱好。但她也发现了另一种激情:“我怎样才能影响其他失聪和听障学生?”
8
Training the next generation of biologists who happen to be deaf has become Solomon’s goal, and for that she has received high praise at Gallaudet. Not because she’s an especially gifted teacher, but because she has learned how to get her students to focus on what they’re capable of, not what they’re limited by.
不仅因为她是一个特别有天赋的老师,更是因为她知道如何让学生专注于自己能做的事情而不是受限的事情

C篇阅读答案:DCBC
P1: ……….The big question was : Why do birds sing so often?
P2 : In a new study, Adam and her team members offer a new explanation, suggesting that songbirds may have to sing a lot to give their vocal(声音的) muscles the regular exercise they need to produce top-quality song. These findings could be related to human voices too. “Anytime you stop speaking, you might experience a loss in vocal performance,” said Adam, “songbirds one day could help us improve how we train and restore our own voices.”
鸣禽可能必须唱很多歌,才能让他们的声带的肌肉得到定期锻炼,以产生高质量的歌曲。
12
Next, she prevented the birds from singing for a week by keeping them in the dark almost around the clock. After a week, the birds’ vocal muscles lost half their strength. When she played it for a group of female birds, six out of nine preferred the song that came from a male who’d been using his singing muscles daily.
一周后,这些鸟的发声肌肉失去了一半的力量。

当她为一群雌鸟播放这首歌时,九只鸟中有六只更喜欢来自每天都使用歌唱肌肉的雄鸟的歌声。
14
Adam’s finding is that “songbirds need to exercise their vocal muscles to produce top-performance song. If they don’t sing, they lose performance, and they get less attractive to females.”
It’s a good rule to live by, whether you’re a bird or a human — practice makes perfect, at least when it comes to singing one’s heart out.
无论你是鸟还是人,这都是一个很好的生活规则——熟能生巧,至少在唱出自己的心声时是这样。

D篇阅读答案:CDAB
Para 2………..“If we think that most languages can date back to an original human language, all languages are equally old,” Hieber said. However, it’s impossible to find out such language — the direct ancestor of every language in the world. Accordingly, some experts believe that the “oldest language” should belong to one with a well-established written record.
即专家认为,“最古老的语言”应该属于一种有良好书面记录的语言。
17
Many of the earliest recorded examples of writing come from languages that used cuneiform script(楔形文字). Among these languages are Sumerian (苏美尔语)and Akkadian(阿卡德语), both dating back at least 4,600 years. Experts have also found Egyptian hieroglyphs(象形字) that date to around the same historical period. These hieroglyphs, which can be translated into “He has united the Two Lands for his son, Dual King Peribsen,” are considered the earliest complete sentence ever discovered.
这些象形文字被认为是迄今为止发现的最早的完整句子。

18
Experts generally agree that Sumerian, Akkadian and Egyptian are the oldest languages with a clear written record. All three are extinct, meaning that they are no longer used and do not have any living followers which can carry the language to the next generation.
古代的
过时的,陈旧的
积极的,活泼的
x
灭绝的,灭亡的
离去的,灭绝的
这意味着它们不再被使用,也没有任何活着的追随者可以把这种语言传给下一代
19
As for the oldest language that is still spoken, several competitors appear. Hebrew and Arabic stand out among such languages for having timelines that experts can reasonably find, according to Hieber. Although these earliest written languages only date back around 3,000 years, Hieber said, “both of them belong to the Afroasiatic language family, whose roots date back to 18,000 to 8,000 B.C.E., or about 20,000 to 10,000 years ago.” Even with this wide period of time, it is widely accepted that Afroasiatic(非亚语系) is the oldest language family. But the exact point in time when Hebrew and Arabic separated from other Afroasiatic languages is heavily debated among experts.
但是,希伯来语和阿拉伯语从其他亚非语言中分离出来的确切时间点在专家之间存在激烈的争论。

Dear Chris:
I am really sorry to hear that you're feeling a bit lost in the new environment. It is normal to have this problem. I am glad to receive your letter and give you some useful suggestions to overcome this period.
First of all, I strongly recommend that you join some school club, so that you can find many new friends who have the same hobbies. Besides, being polite is very important. Not only can you improve better personal quality, but also make a good impression on others. Moreover, it would be wise to seek advice from the elderly, such as your parents and teachers. They could offer some useful methods.
Overall, I sincerely hope this tips will help you. Looking forward to your earliest reply.
Yours Li Hua.
