Sometimes all we need is a quick escape from the daily routine. A weekend getaway can be just the ticket to recharge our batteries and create unforgettable memories. Here’s a snapshot of what a perfect short trip might look like.
Essential Weekend Getaway Tips:
Choose a destination within a few hours’ drive to maximize your time off and reduce travel tiredness.
Book a comfortable accommodation (住宿) that offers a home-away-from-home feeling—perhaps with a local touch that adds to the experience.
Don’t miss the local markets—they’re a treasure of unique souvenirs, delicious street food.
Top choices for a Quick Escape:
Mountain Retreat: Enjoy hiking trails and amazing views for a refreshing change of pace. The mountain air and the peace of nature can do wonders for your spirit.
Coastal Town: Relax by the sea, enjoy the seafood, and take a sun bath.
Historical City: Step back in time with a walk through ancient streets and monuments.
Weekend trip plan:
Day 1: Arrive and settle in, then explore the local area. Get a feel for the place by visiting a local cafe or park, and maybe even start a conversation with a friendly local.
Day 2: Full-day adventure—hiking, sightseeing, or just relaxing. Perhaps take a boat tour if you’re by the coast or a guided tour if you're in a historical city.
Day 3: Slow down with a leisurely brunch before heading home. Reflect on the experiences and the stories you’ve collected during your short but sweet escape. Then go back home.
Remember, it’s not about the distance but the experience. A weekend getaway is a chance to make yourself slow down and return home with a renewed spirit. So, take your bags and let’s hit the road!

I was standing in front of the dressing-room mirror, looking unhappy. I wore a white dancing dress and a white swim cap that covered most of my hair. I was one of 10 snowflakes in my dance school’s Winter Wonderland Show.
“Grandma, I really don't feel like being in the show,” I said. Grandma Lani looked up from what she was doing. “Why, Avery? You love to dance.” “I used to love to dance. But Ms. Tuttle gave the part of the Snow Queen to Lisa. She got to do a dance onstage all by herself. The snowflakes just had to run and spin (旋转) to look like a snowstorm.” “I don’t like our dance. And no one would notice if I weren’t there. There are so many of us.” I sighed (叹气).
Grandma was about to speak. Then something outside the window caught her eyes. She got my coat and pulled me out of the dressing room and through the doors to the outside. It was snowing. Grandma held her breath, and I suddenly thought of something. “Grandma, have you ever seen snow before?” “No. In Hawaii, it snows only on the very tops of mountains.”
I had seen snow lots of times, but now I tried to see it differently. Like it was new. So many snowflakes came together to create something magical. “Aloha,” my grandma said softly to the sky. Aloha can mean many things, including “love”, “hello”, and “good-bye”. She continued to say, “I don’t know when I’ll see something like that again.” “I do,” I said. I took Grandma Lani’s hand and pulled her back inside.
When the stage lights came up and the music started, I ran and spun with all of the other snowflakes. I didn’t care if Grandma Lani could see me. I was helping her see a snowstorm.
28. What was the part Avery played in the dance?
A. A snowflake. B. A snowman. C. The Snow Queen. D. A granddaughter.
29. How did Avery feel about her part in the dance at first?
A. Excited. B. Worried. C. Surprised. D. Unhappy.
30. What did Avery do after seeing the snow with her grandma?
A. She danced happily in the snow.
B. She felt the snowflakes in her hands.
C. She pulled her grandma into the room.
D. She explained “Aloha” to her grandma.
31. Why did Avery feel like being in the show at last?
A. She loved to dance very much.
B. She became more important in it.
C. She would like to show her gift.
D. She wanted to please her grandma.
D
We are in the midst of (处于……之中) a battle for our attention. Our devices have affected our brains and destroyed our collective ability to concentrate. Journalist Johann Hair’s new book, Stolen Focus, has just joined the voices complaining about the great influence of the digital age. His and other recent books reflect a public idea that our focus is under attack.
Indeed, in our new research, we found some clear concerns. We surveyed a nationally representative sample of 2, 093 UK adults last year. Half of those surveyed felt their attention spans were shorter than they used to be, compared with a quarter who didn’t. And three quarters of participants agreed we’re living through a time when there’s non-stop competition for our attention between a variety of media channels and information outlets (渠道).
There has long been a worry about the threat to attention brought by new cultural forms, whether that’s social media or the cheap paperback sensation (煽情) novels of the 19th century. Even as far back as ancient Greece, the philosopher Socrates complained that the written words created “forgetfulness in our souls.” There has always been a tendency to fear the effects that new media and technologies will have on our minds.
The reality is that we simply don’t have long-term studies that tell us whether our attention spans have actually shrunk (缩短). What we do know from our study is that people overestimate (高估) some of the problems. There’s no such thing as an average attention span. Our ability to focus varies hugely depending on the individual and the task at hand.
It’s also important not to ignore the many benefits that technology brings to our life. Much of the public surveyed recognized these, so while half thought big tech and social media were ruining young people’s attention spans, roughly another half felt that being easily distracted was more to do with people’s personalities than any negative influence that technology may or may not have. Also, half of the public believed multitasking at work and switching frequently between emails, phone calls, and other tasks can create a more efficient and satisfactory work experience.
32. What can we know about some of the participants in the new research?
A. They were frequently disturbed by digital devices.
B. They felt it hard to acquire useful information online.
C. They had shorter attention spans than average people.
D. They felt challenged by fierce competition from others.
33. Why does the author mention Socrates in Paragraph 3?
A. To stress new cultural forms have limitations.
B. To show worry about attention is an age-old problem.
C. To prove the important role he played in literary history.
D. To explain cultural differences between the past and the present.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. People tend to overestimate their abilities.
B. Digital distractions might have potential benefits.
C. Technology’s benefits have been largely ignored.
D. Switching between different tasks frequently is difficult.
35. What message does the author want to convey?
A. Digital devices can benefit our work. B. We should say “No” to digital devices.
C. Digital distractions really affect us so much. D. We should think highly of new cultural forms.

根据所读内容,在文章后的空格里填入恰当的内容。(1—8题每空一词;9题词数不限。)
In Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, the Twelve Hours of Chang’an is a cultural street with a Tang Dynasty theme, which shows a clear and lifelike picture of Tang Dynasty (618—907) city life. Changed from a former shopping mall, the 24,000-square-meter block opened in April 2022. Sitting near the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda and within the busy Datang Everbright City, the block has several metro lines to get there and has since drawn over 4 million visitors across the world.
The street recreates the busy streets, ancient buildings, and lively markets of ancient Chang’an. Visitors can walk slowly through the 12 themed Tang-style streets, enjoying the smell of local snacks such as Hu-style pancakes. Young ladies in Hanfu and Tang-style makeup can be seen everywhere. They take wonderful photos to record their special “time-travel” experience.
A highlight of the block is the interactive (互动的) shows. They can interact with actors dressed as Tang poets, such as Li Bai and Du Fu, reading aloud classic poems and learning about Tang literature. Visitors can watch and enjoy the famous Rainbow Skirt and Feather Coat Dance, pipa music and shadow puppetry. For food lovers, the first floor underground has a variety of real Tang-style snacks, allowing visitors to taste the delicious foods loved by ancient Chang’an citizens.
Modern technology plays an important role in improving the experience. VR and AI technologies are used to create immersive scenes (沉浸式场景), allowing visitors to “walk into” ancient paintings like Court Ladies Wearing Flowered Headdresses or share a drink with Li Bai through holographic projections (全息投影). There are also robot guides in Tang costumes, helping visitors find their way around the block and joining them in fun poetry games. According to Zou Linfeng, chairman of Shaanxi Cultural Tourism Co, the block makes great efforts to put together traditional culture and modern technology.
Last year, the city received 278 million tourist visits, up 33.1% year-on-year. This block not only provides a fun way for young people to learn about Chinese history but also successfully shows the charm of traditional Chinese culture to the world.

Sometimes all we need is a quick escape from the daily routine. A weekend getaway can be just the ticket to recharge our batteries and create unforgettable memories. Here’s a snapshot of what a perfect short trip might look like.
Essential Weekend Getaway Tips:
Choose a destination within a few hours’ drive to maximize your time off and reduce travel tiredness.
Book a comfortable accommodation (住宿) that offers a home-away-from-home feeling—perhaps with a local touch that adds to the experience.
Don’t miss the local markets—they’re a treasure of unique souvenirs, delicious street food.
Top choices for a Quick Escape:
Mountain Retreat: Enjoy hiking trails and amazing views for a refreshing change of pace. The mountain air and the peace of nature can do wonders for your spirit.
Coastal Town: Relax by the sea, enjoy the seafood, and take a sun bath.
Historical City: Step back in time with a walk through ancient streets and monuments.
Weekend trip plan:
Day 1: Arrive and settle in, then explore the local area. Get a feel for the place by visiting a local cafe or park, and maybe even start a conversation with a friendly local.
Day 2: Full-day adventure—hiking, sightseeing, or just relaxing. Perhaps take a boat tour if you’re by the coast or a guided tour if you're in a historical city.
Day 3: Slow down with a leisurely brunch before heading home. Reflect on the experiences and the stories you’ve collected during your short but sweet escape. Then go back home.

I was standing in front of the dressing-room mirror, looking unhappy. I wore a white dancing dress and a white swim cap that covered most of my hair. I was one of 10 snowflakes in my dance school’s Winter Wonderland Show.
“Grandma, I really don't feel like being in the show,” I said. Grandma Lani looked up from what she was doing. “Why, Avery? You love to dance.” “I used to love to dance. But Ms. Tuttle gave the part of the Snow Queen to Lisa. She got to do a dance onstage all by herself. The snowflakes just had to run and spin (旋转) to look like a snowstorm.” “I don’t like our dance. And no one would notice if I weren’t there. There are so many of us.” I sighed (叹气).
Grandma was about to speak. Then something outside the window caught her eyes. She got my coat and pulled me out of the dressing room and through the doors to the outside. It was snowing. Grandma held her breath, and I suddenly thought of something. “Grandma, have you ever seen snow before?” “No. In Hawaii, it snows only on the very tops of mountains.”
I had seen snow lots of times, but now I tried to see it differently. Like it was new. So many snowflakes came together to create something magical. “Aloha,” my grandma said softly to the sky. Aloha can mean many things, including “love”, “hello”, and “good-bye”. She continued to say, “I don’t know when I’ll see something like that again.” “I do,” I said. I took Grandma Lani’s hand and pulled her back inside.
When the stage lights came up and the music started, I ran and spun with all of the other snowflakes. I didn’t care if Grandma Lani could see me. I was helping her see a snowstorm.
28. What was the part Avery played in the dance?
A. A snowflake. B. A snowman. C. The Snow Queen. D. A granddaughter.
29. How did Avery feel about her part in the dance at first?
A. Excited. B. Worried. C. Surprised. D. Unhappy.
30. What did Avery do after seeing the snow with her grandma?
A. She danced happily in the snow.
B. She felt the snowflakes in her hands.
C. She pulled her grandma into the room.
D. She explained “Aloha” to her grandma.
31. Why did Avery feel like being in the show at last?
A. She loved to dance very much.
B. She became more important in it.
C. She would like to show her gift.
D. She wanted to please her grandma.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了女孩Avery在舞蹈演出中因只扮演一片不起眼的“雪花”而感到沮丧。在陪同来自夏威夷的祖母观赏真实的漫天大雪后,她领悟到集体力量创造的壮丽,转而自豪地投入到演出中。
【28题详解】
第一段最后一句指出:“I was one of 10 snowflakes in my dance school’s Winter Wonderland Show.”。明确交代了Avery在舞蹈中扮演的角色是一片雪花。
【29题详解】
第一段第一句提到:“I was standing in front of the dressing-room mirror, looking unhappy.”。随后第二段她对祖母诉说“I really don’t feel like being in the show”,这直接反映了她起初对自己所扮演角色的不满与不悦。
【30题详解】
根据第四段最后一句定位:“I took Grandma Lani’s hand and pulled her back inside.”。直接交代了在室外看完雪后,Avery拉着祖母回到了房间里。
【31题详解】
第五段提到:“I didn’t care if Grandma Lani could see me. I was helping her see a snowstorm.”。结合前文祖母从未见过大雪的背景,可以推断出Avery心态的转变是因为她意识到自己的表演能让祖母“看见”美丽的雪景,这种想要回馈祖母的心愿让她重新爱上了这场演出。

We are in the midst of (处于……之中) a battle for our attention. Our devices have affected our brains and destroyed our collective ability to concentrate. Journalist Johann Hair’s new book, Stolen Focus, has just joined the voices complaining about the great influence of the digital age. His and other recent books reflect a public idea that our focus is under attack.
Indeed, in our new research, we found some clear concerns. We surveyed a nationally representative sample of 2, 093 UK adults last year. Half of those surveyed felt their attention spans were shorter than they used to be, compared with a quarter who didn’t. And three quarters of participants agreed we’re living through a time when there’s non-stop competition for our attention between a variety of media channels and information outlets (渠道).
There has long been a worry about the threat to attention brought by new cultural forms, whether that’s social media or the cheap paperback sensation (煽情) novels of the 19th century. Even as far back as ancient Greece, the philosopher Socrates complained that the written words created “forgetfulness in our souls.” There has always been a tendency to fear the effects that new media and technologies will have on our minds.
The reality is that we simply don’t have long-term studies that tell us whether our attention spans have actually shrunk (缩短). What we do know from our study is that people overestimate (高估) some of the problems. There’s no such thing as an average attention span. Our ability to focus varies hugely depending on the individual and the task at hand.
It’s also important not to ignore the many benefits that technology brings to our life. Much of the public surveyed recognized these, so while half thought big tech and social media were ruining young people’s attention spans, roughly another half felt that being easily distracted was more to do with people’s personalities than any negative influence that technology may or may not have. Also, half of the public believed multitasking at work and switching frequently between emails, phone calls, and other tasks can create a more efficient and satisfactory work experience.
32. What can we know about some of the participants in the new research?
A. They were frequently disturbed by digital devices.
B. They felt it hard to acquire useful information online.
C. They had shorter attention spans than average people.
D. They felt challenged by fierce competition from others.
33. Why does the author mention Socrates in Paragraph 3?
A. To stress new cultural forms have limitations.
B. To show worry about attention is an age-old problem.
C. To prove the important role he played in literary history.
D. To explain cultural differences between the past and the present.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. People tend to overestimate their abilities.
B. Digital distractions might have potential benefits.
C. Technology’s benefits have been largely ignored.
D. Switching between different tasks frequently is difficult.
35. What message does the author want to convey?
A. Digital devices can benefit our work. B. We should say “No” to digital devices.
C. Digital distractions really affect us so much. D. We should think highly of new cultural forms.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. B 35. A
【解析】

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“There has long been a worry about the threat to attention brought by new cultural forms, whether that’s.”可知,人们一直担心新的文化形式会威胁到人们的注意力,作者提及苏格拉底是为了表明对注意力的担忧是古老的问题。故选B。
【34题详解】

【答案】If you want to visit an ancient city, Xi’an will be your first choice.
【解析】
【详解】“如果你想参观一座古城,西安将会是你的首选。”译为If you want to visit an ancient city, Xi’an will be your first choice。“如果你想参观”译为If you want to visit;“一座古城”结合提示词用an ancient city表示,由于ancient以元音音素开头,其前应用不定冠词an;“西安将会是你的首选”译为Xi’an will be your first choice,本句符合if引导的条件状语从句“主将从现”原则,即从句用一般现在时,主句用一般将来时。

In Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, the Twelve Hours of Chang’an is a cultural street with a Tang Dynasty theme, which shows a clear and lifelike picture of Tang Dynasty (618—907) city life. Changed from a former shopping mall, the 24,000-square-meter block opened in April 2022. Sitting near the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda and within the busy Datang Everbright City, the block has several metro lines to get there and has since drawn over 4 million visitors across the world.
The street recreates the busy streets, ancient buildings, and lively markets of ancient Chang’an. Visitors can walk slowly through the 12 themed Tang-style streets, enjoying the smell of local snacks such as Hu-style pancakes. Young ladies in Hanfu and Tang-style makeup can be seen everywhere. They take wonderful photos to record their special “time-travel” experience.
A highlight of the block is the interactive (互动的) shows. They can interact with actors dressed as Tang poets, such as Li Bai and Du Fu, reading aloud classic poems and learning about Tang literature. Visitors can watch and enjoy the famous Rainbow Skirt and Feather Coat Dance, pipa music and shadow puppetry. For food lovers, the first floor underground has a variety of real Tang-style snacks, allowing visitors to taste the delicious foods loved by ancient Chang’an citizens.
Modern technology plays an important role in improving the experience. VR and AI technologies are used to create immersive scenes (沉浸式场景), allowing visitors to “walk into” ancient paintings like Court Ladies Wearing Flowered Headdresses or share a drink with Li Bai through holographic projections (全息投影). There are also robot guides in Tang costumes, helping visitors find their way around the block and joining them in fun poetry games. According to Zou Linfeng, chairman of Shaanxi Cultural Tourism Co, the block makes great efforts to put together traditional culture and modern technology.
Last year, the city received 278 million tourist visits, up 33.1% year-on-year. This block not only provides a fun way for young people to learn about Chinese history but also successfully shows the charm of traditional Chinese culture to the world.
