Waynesville, North Carolina Travel Guide
About 25 miles southwest of Asheville, Waynesville is the perfect western Carolina mountain town with real charm. So why not visit it?
Best Things to Do in Waynesville
·Make the short drive to Waterrock Knob, where you’ll find one of the best trails and views in Western North Carolina. At 5, 820 feet, it’s the highest visitor center along the Blue Ridge Parkway.
·Go to Cataloochee Valley to see the elk (麋鹿). The valley is filled with wildlife and wildflowers.
·Visit Haywood’s Farmers Market, filled with local products from produce to cheese to crafts. Fill up your bag with fresh fruit and sweet treats for a picnic around Lake Junaluska.
Explore the Frog Level District located on Richland Creek, which features one-and two-story brick and frame buildings from the early 1900s.
Best Time to Visit
Fall is the most popular time for Waynesville tourism. The bright oranges, yellows, and reds of the fall leaves draw crowds from near and far — so you can expect the cost to mirror the demand. Spring, however, is the best time to visit Waynesville if you want to enjoy pleasant weather, and various fairs and festivals.
Where to Stay in Waynesville
You’ll feel at home instantly you pull up to The Yellow House on Plott Creek Road. Built in the late 1800s, the hotel sits on five rolling acres of land, surrounded by walking paths, two ponds and a stream. There’re ten rooms and suites and each has its own private bath, fireplace and sitting area.
How to Get There
Asheville Regional Airport is the closest airport. If you’re flying into the area, you’ll need your own transportation to travel around Waynesville. Downtown Waynesville is walkable but exploring further out into the Blue Ridge Mountains requires a car.
21. Where will you most probably have a chance to admire ancient buildings?
A. Waterrock Knob. B. Cataloochee Valley.
C. Frog Level District. D. Haywood’s Farmers Market.
22. What makes fall the most popular time to visit Waynesville?
A. The competitive cost. B. The local cultures.
C. The agreeable weather. D. The natural beauty.
23. What had you better do in order to have a nice time around Waynesville?
A. Rent a car. B. Feed some wildlife.
C. Hike on foot. D. Grow fresh fruits.

The sound of my mother preparing breakfast fills the house — my morning alarm.
As I walk toward the kitchen, I’m greeted by my mother standing over the cooker. She effortlessly cooks a dish that mixes Western and Eastern styles, a beloved breakfast classic in our family. This is my grandmother’s recipe (食谱).
Since my grandmother’s passing, I’ve become more aware of my mother’s aging and her devotion to cooking for us. She has cooked for her family for more than 30 years, dividing her time between three countries — Korea, Canada and Germany. When my parents visit us from Korea, they stay with us for several months. My mother helps around the house, showing her cooking skills to provide delicious meals for me, my partner and our kids. In every other year, she and my dad will travel to Berlin to spend a couple of weeks with my sister and her partner.
According to Statista, most Canadians report spending between 31 and 60 minutes preparing an average weekday dinner for themselves and others in their houses. Ten percent stated that they spend more than an hour preparing their evening meal. My mother belongs to that 10 percent.
Her cooking goes beyond the kitchen, starting with careful grocery shopping trips where she examines produce and finds the best deals. She takes everyone’s preferences and needs into account. The meal she creates becomes a ritual (仪式), bringing the family together to connect and share. Helping her out in the kitchen requires a great deal of patience. Yet, I know it’s her way of expressing love. As I prepare the vegetables, she notices that my carrots are not evenly sized. She pushes me aside to take over the task. “Just do the dishes.”
24. What do we know about the author’s mother from paragraph 2?
A. She has more than two children.
B. She lives with the author in Korea.
C. She has great cooking skills.
D. She invented the family beloved breakfast classic.
25. What’s the purpose of listing data about meal preparation time?
A. To present a common problem.
B. To show her mother’s love.
C. To stress the importance of home-cooked meals.
D. To explain the reasons behind infrequent cooking.
26. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. Her mother dislikes being bothered.
B. Her mother expects perfection in cooking.
C. Her mother gets angry easily.
D. Her mother wants to teach her everything.
27. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Mother’s Recipe Is the Best in the World.
B. Mother’s Love Needs to Be Responded to.
C. Mother’s Selflessness Inspires My Family.
D. Mother’s Kitchen draws Us Closer Together.
C
Many people wonder when the best time to exercise is. Experts have different opinions about morning, evening and afternoon workouts. To explore these differences further, let’s look at the benefits of exercising at different times of the day.
Dr. Jagim from Mayo Clinic Health System says, “Morning workouts make you feel like you do something good and start the day on a happy note.” After a morning workout, people feel good because of endorphins (内啡肽). Also, mornings are usually free from other things to do, allowing people to enjoy their afternoons and evenings without worrying about exercise. For morning workouts, Dr. Jagim says, “Eating a varied breakfast with carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats is important. This gives energy for the workout.”
“However, for some people, waking up early to exercise is the last thing they feel like doing, and therefore, the case for evening workouts is more attractive. Your body works best in the early evening,” says Jake Erickson, a sports medicine specialist. “This is a good time to exercise. During this time, your body has time to wake up a bit by moving around throughout the day. Also, your body uses oxygen better in the evening. This helps you use your energy more efficiently when you exercise.”
A study with over 90,000 people found that exercising in the afternoon is better for your heart and helps you live longer than exercising in the morning or evening. This is especially true for older people. Dr. Gende, emergency physician at Mayo Clinic Health System, says that morning workouts might not be good for people who work late shifts or stay up late. For them, it’s better to sleep more in the morning and then do a workout in the middle of the day or early afternoon before their next shift.
While science gives ideas, experts agree the best time matches personal plans and energy. Consistency is more important than timing.
28. What does Dr. Jagim recommend for morning workouts?
A. Taking in more fats.
B. Having a healthy breakfast
C. Drinking enough water.
D. Avoiding staying up late the night before.
29. What might Jake Erickson agree with?
A. Early evening workouts suit late risers.
B. The later night exercisers wake up, the better.
C. All people’s bodies work best in the late evening.
D. Morning workouts set a positive tone for night workers.
30. Which group benefits most from afternoon workouts according to the study?
A. Young women. B. Teenagers C. Children. D. Older people
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. When is the Best Time to Exercise?
B. What is Important for a Healthy Body?
C. What Role Does Food Play During Workouts?
D. Why is Evening Exercise Good for Everyone?
D
The most popular martial arts (武术) today originated in Asia, especially in China. Many martial arts were invented because people needed to defend themselves or protect others. Nowadays, people learn martial arts as a way of keeping fit or as a competitive sport, but they are still very useful for self defense.
Martial arts are often referred to as either soft or hard. These terms imply a way of dealing with your opponent’s own force. Soft martial arts, such as tai chi, teach you to use your opponent’s force to defend yourself. Soft styles allow you to use flowing movements and timing to avoid your opponent’s attacks. These martial arts are soft for the defender but not for the attacker! On the other hand, hard styles, such as kung fu, teach you to defend yourself using force. Techniques involve blocking, posturing, powerful hitting and kicking. Hard martial arts techniques are more effective if you are more skillful, more powerful and faster than your opponent.
Perhaps one of the best known Japanese martial arts today is karate. But did you know that its roots are derived from Fujian Province? In the 4th century, a community of Chinese migrants from Fujian settled in what was then the kingdom of Okinawa. The Chinese migrants used to gather in a park to enjoy cultural activities — one of which was kung fu. This soon caught the attention of local youths, who started learning kung fu from their Chinese neighbors.
In fact, Chinese influence in martial arts was not limited to kung fu. The very first Korean military training guidebook was based on a Chinese version. During the Japanese invasion of Korea in the 16th century, the Korean army needed an effective way to train a large number of troops. They adopted a training methodology (方法) from a Chinese military book called Ji Xiao Xin Shu, written by the famous Chinese general Qi Jiguang, who had himself defeated Japanese pirates.
32. Why did people invent martial arts?
A. For self-defense. B. To keep fit.
C. For competition. D. To attack others.
33. What does the second paragraph focus on about martial arts?
A. Their effects. B. Their development.
C. Their types and features. D. Their importance.
34. Who spread karate according to the text?
A. The Chinese army. B. The Korean soldiers. C. Japanese troops. D. Chinese migrants.
35. Why did the Korean army adopt a training methodology from Ji Xiao Xin Shu?
A. To draw Chinese neighbors’ attention.
B. To train soldiers.
C. To enjoy cultural activities.
D. To show admiration for Qi Jiguang.

Are you new to experiencing relationships? Well, let me give you some advice on how to have
a healthy relationship with your partners.
(1) Be an honest person with them. Don’t hide things from them, and don’t lie. Don’t be afraid to say things that aren’t very flattering about yourself. Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship. If there’s no trust, there’s nothing there. 36
(2) Make sure you give them respect. Now, respect isn’t just simply treating them nicely. 37 You have to learn to adjust to their liking. Basically, learn to study your partners’ moods, wants and needs. Don’t just think about yourself, but think about what your partners need out of it as well.
(3) Make sure you are encouraging to your partners. Always be willing to help them and give them honesty and positive at the same time. Make them feel you are someone they can really count on and build a future with. 38
(4) Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them. Laughter is the key to happiness. Laugh a lot with them, and joke with them. Laughter may seem silly, but it’s the secret to a lot in life. It will keep the sparks alive. 39
(5) Make sure the communication is good. This usually goes along with trust, so always communicate how you feel even if it’s something that upsets you. 40 If they did something that made you unhappy, tell them about it in a respectful manner. It’s important to communicate this to them, not to keep it bottled up.
A. There’s a lot more to it.
B. Show them your personality.
C. Instead of screaming, talk to them:
D. Laughter keeps the relationship strong and lasting.
E. So please be honest and they’ll learn to open up to you.
F. Don’t start to neglect them and make them feel unwanted.
G. Your partners will be able to count on you when necessary.

If time is truly the most valuable thing, then maybe we should be surprised at how much we 41 it. I’ve heard that when smokers kick the 42 of smoking, their lungs (肺) begin to 43 themselves almost right away. So could it also be true of our brains, which have been slowed by long time of phone use?

Just a few weeks after that, I’ve read two books. I’ve 49 20 minutes to improve my health every day, and I have had more 50 for writing tasks in these few weeks than I had throughout last year.
Coincidence (巧合)? Maybe. But more 51 , I’ve also had more communication with strangers, whether it’s giving out a greeting or laughing at something 52 together.
We’ve given the little computers in our hands far more of our time and 53 than we should. They’ve become crutches (拐杖), 54 us the whole time. But the funny thing is, when we put them down, there’s no 55 that we’ll find other ways to fill our time and make our life more colorful.

A Mother’s Day Surprise
The twins were filled with excitement as they thought of the surprise they were planning for Mother’s Day. How pleased and proud Mother would be when they brought her breakfast in bed. They planned to make French toast and chicken porridge. They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it. Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do.
The big day came at last. The alarm rang at 6 a.m. The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. They decided to boil the porridge first. They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast. Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk. Jema found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture. Next, Jef turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan. Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread. The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread. This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely.
Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But the stove was a mess now. Jenna told Jef to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge. But Jeff’s hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. Jenna made him put his hand in cold water. Then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear! The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well.

【读后续写】参考范文:
As the twins looked around them in disappointment, their father appeared. “Don’t panic!” he handed each one a wet towel, helping them clean the mess quickly. After that, Jeff stammered out their plan, his face flushing. However, Father laughed, “Sounds great! I can teach you to cook.” At this, Jenna and Jef almost jumped to their feet, joy in eyes. Under his careful guidance, it didn’t take long before the French toast and chicken porridge were ready. Everything settled, Father left the kitchen, promising to keep their secret.
The twins carried the breakfast upstairs and woke their mother up. Meeting their smiling eyes, Mother felt confused until they presented the breakfast and said “Happy Mother’s Day”. Mother gave them a tight hug, “Unbelievable! You can cook! It’s the biggest surprise I have received.” Her face lit up with happiness. “They have known how to take care of others.” Father said in response to her excitement, winking at Jenna and Jef. They couldn’t help giggling. It was a secret only shared between them.
