While in Banff, make time for a walk around town. A special treat is to go up the mountainside on the Banff Gondola for a surprising view of the valley below. Here is The Pines, whose cook has developed a special way of mixing foreign food such as caribou, wild boar, and reindeer with surprising sauces.
Best time to visit is during the off-season, from early May to mid-June, or in October. This way you can avoid sharing the highway with mobile homes which can be pulled by cars. But whatever the season, take some lunch with you from Banff, because there are only a few food stops on the road.
Forty minutes north of Banff, side by side with the Banff National Park, sits world-famous Lake Louise. This surprisingly small body of water is attractive with towering mountains around it. Glaciers, huge masses of ice, moving very slowly against rocks, produce what is called glacier rock flour, making its water dark to see. It is worth taking a walk around the grounds of the Chateau Lake Louise, another beauty, proud of its early 20th century history.
Back on the road, and it’s time to continue north past the astonishing Columbia Icefield, then turn off the highway and take the short road to the base of the Athabaska Glacier. You can rent ice cleats (夾板) and do some climbing or do a more pleasant snowmobile tour. Either way, you can enjoy endless beautiful sights.
Finally you’ll reach Jasper, the usual turning around the place for the Banff-Jasper loop (回路). It’s worth riding the Jasper Skytram, and be sure to visit the wonderful Jasper Park Lodge, also dating back to the 1920s. If you can have lunch there, do it. The restaurant has an adventurous menu and their wine list would put a smile on any visitor’s face.
小題1:According the passage, The Pines is a                                .
A．place in which you can see many mobile homes
B．mountain where you can get a good view of the valley
C．town which happens to be near the Banff National Park
D．restaurant where you can ask for some special kinds of food
小題2:What will probably happen when visitors come at the end of June?
A．They may have trouble finding a restaurant.
B．They may come across traffic jams.
C．They may travel more easily with cars.
D．They may do much more sightseeing.
小題3:Similar to the Chateau Lake Louise,                           .
A．the Banff National Park is to the west of Banff
B．the Columbia Icefield lies between Lake Louise and the Banff National Park
C．the Jasper Skytram has a history of more than 80 years
D．the Jasper Park Lodge was built in the 1920s
小題4:Besides the beautiful sights in Jasper Park Lodge, visitors to Jasper can enjoy themselves by                                   .
A．taking the Jasper Skytram and eating in the restaurant
B．taking the Banff-Jasper loop and Jasper Skytram
C．having a lot of food to order in the restaurant
D．taking the Jasper Skytram back to Banff

One summer my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to travel there without going through a travel agency. You know, you would be submerged (淹沒) in crowds of tourists and lose lots of opportunities to get familiar with the country more closely. We started to think over our trip and managed to come up with a free tour of Italy.
The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive. We look forward to going there again! Of course, we spent lots of time arranging the trip, but it was well worth it! Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially anxious about my visa, but everything went quite smoothly in the end.
The most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation. In the Italian consulate(領事館), one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa. Then we had to solve the ticket problem. Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far in advance. The next step was to book a hotel. We finally booked a hotel about thirty km away from the heart of Rome and it was the perfect choice for our trip.
Every day we took a train that carried us to the heart of Rome. Our big house, which was surrounded by the forest, was a rare girl for the fresh air and absolute silence, beautiful views, hospitable (好客的) hosts, comfortable living conditions delighted us to no end. Besides this, we were very lucky that our mistress was Russian. She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use. She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.
Don’t be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself. It’s not difficult! The only thing I'll say right now is that we really enjoyed traveling by ourselves. We walked with a map and a guide-book to wherever we wanted and we even met some of our fellow countrymen on the way just two or three times. So, if you're also planning a "single" trip, don't forget to take a Russian-Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their native tongue.
小題1: Why does the author want to go to Italy again?
A．He had a great time there.
B．Italy has a lot of attractions.
C．His friend invited him there.
D．He didn't stay in Italy long enough.
小題2:What does the author think was the hardest in preparing for his Italian trip?
A．Buying cheap airline tickets to Italy before the traveling
B．Getting a visa without an invitation from the Italian consulate.
C．Booking a comfortable hotel on his own in Rome.
D．Solving the ticket problem far in advance.
小題3: In the fourth paragraph the author mainly explains
A．the reason why he chose to live in the center of Rome
B．the reason why the hotel he booked was the right choice
C．what transport they chose to travel in their Italian trip
D．the reason why the mistress gave them some advice
小題4:Which of the following questions has NOT been answered in the passage?
A．Why did the author decide to go to Italy for a holiday for the first time?
B．Why did the author decide not to follow a travel agency?
C．How did the author prepare for his trip?
D．What tools did the author use for his traveling?
小題5: From the text we can know the author
A．enjoys traveling everywhere in the world
B．likes being accompanied by tour guides
C．advises us to arrange trips by ourselves
D．met with a lot of his countrymen in Italy

Some couples spend every waking minute together. Others fill their hours with personal hobbies,outside interests and even part-time jobs, just to keep their distance from each other! "There should be private time and couple time," suggests Dr. Stephen Treat at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia."You don't want your latter years to turn into a process where two people unite as one. If you hold too tightly to your partner, it's going to cause resentment and anger. If you're completely separate, you'll both be lonely and disconnected. You need balance. So you have to talk about how you'll achieve that."
The right balance? It's different for every couple. "Having a conversation about time can be difficult,but it's important for both partners to process those feelings out loud," Dr. Treat says. "You should not be accusing and act as a judge—ask the difficult questions, but do it in a loving way. You could say something like, 'How are we going to be as individuals and how are we going to be as a couple?' "
Barbara and Chris Christensen have achieved the balance that works for them. In addition to daily routines that keep them close—including about 10 minutes for a daily check-in and about a half hour of relaxation time—they each maintain separate interests and friendships.
"We have found that we need time apart," Barbara says. "I have a group of women friends that I have known for the last 30 years. We have dinner out once a month. We women also have parties and weekend or weeklong vacations as a group at a beach or somewhere. Chris, a former fighter pilot, has many aviation-oriented(航空的) groups and friends and also a poker-playing group of our friends. I may be with him during the poker night, but I don't play, and the wives usually watch a chick flick' DVD or something while the poker group has an evening of fun. We have found it important to have separate time as well as together time."
小題1:The author writes the passage to ______.
A．offer some suggestions on how to spend the time after retirement
B．advise couples to develop their separate hobbies
C．warn couples not to be accusing each other
D．give people some advice on how to entertain themselves after retirement
小題2: Dr. Stephen suggests that _________after retirement.
A．couples stay together all the time
B．couples express their feelings in a loving way
C．couples be separate
D．wives make many friends
小題3:It can be inferred that________.
A．many couples are faced with problems after retirement
B．America has a large population of retired people
C．most people join various social groups after retirement
D．playing poker is a popular activity among retired people
小題4:Barbara and her friends do the following EXCEPT_______.
A．having dinner regularly
B．holding parties
C．having weekly vacations at the beach
D．having fun playing poker
小題5:The second paragraph is mainly intended to_______.
A．warn the husband not to act as a judge
B．suggest couples have discussions about difficulties
C．suggest how to keep the correct balance
D．require couples to be considerate

Sitting by her Pinocchio lamp, she smiled at me as her tiny hands' shadow danced on the bedroom wall．"A rabbit!" she laughed with all the delight of a four-year old．Her blue eyes shone with pride as she showed me the animated image she had created．"Daddy, will you show me how to make a tiger?" she asked．"Sure," I said, "and then we'll read a story and tell your angels goodnight．"To my youngest daughter, that meant her bedtime prayer．
Today my daughter is seven, and I no longer get to read the story．She reads it to me, complete with expressive accents for the story characters．
To say I'm proud of our relationship would be an understatement．We have shared days of joy as well as tragedy．Our time together has strengthened the relationship of love and special "life stuff" that is all our own．

So it is with all of our relationships．The trust factor is vital for relationships to develop．Think of one of your fondest memories, and you will no doubt find a remarkable relationship at its center--one with a spiritual quality that shines outward from the heart．
Time together, caring acts, and unconditional love build trust．I suggest that we each spend plenty of time with our personal "Pinoechio lamps"--those special ways that we choose to strengthen our relationships．
Relationships take time to develop and maintain．It is not always easy, but the results are priceless．"Nights by a Pinoechio lamp", wherever those might be for you, will create enduring relationships of golden "life stuff", spiritual gifts that no one can take away．

HOW would you like to step into the world of other people’s dreams? That’s just what Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) does. His work is to steal secrets from people when they are asleep and dreaming. He has an even rarer ability: He can plant an idea in someone’s sleeping mind, and watch it grow and take root in reality. This ability is called inception.
The movie Inception (《盜夢空間》) was on show in Chinese cinemas not long ago. It is imaginative, of course. The movie leads one to wonder just how much we know about dreams. For years, scientists and researchers have been trying to solve sleep’s greatest mystery.
Is it possible to enter someone’s dreaming mind? In the movie, DiCaprio uses a drug and a dream machine to put a scenario (某一特定情節(jié)) into someone’s sleeping mind. He then goes to sleep himself, connected to the machine, and enters the other person’s dream.
In real life, there is a machine that can read someone’s mind. A brain scanner takes pictures of brain activity, and then the software recreates images of what the person was looking at.
Researchers say it may be possible one day to record someone’s dream – without the danger (or the fun) of actually sharing that dream.
What’s a dream, anyway? A dream is a group of images and sounds our brain creates when we’re sleeping. In the 1950s, researchers discovered a sleeping condition that happened around every 90 to 120 minutes during sleep: rapid eye movement, or REM. During this period you’re fast asleep, yet your eyes move around quickly under your eyelids (眼皮) and your brain is nearly as active as during the day. That’s when most dreams happen.
What do dreams mean? Dreams are not always filled with meaning. Sometimes dreams are just your mind playing with thoughts and images from your life, or things you may have read or seen on TV. But at other times, dreams show things that you want to achieve in real life, or things that cause you trouble or stress.
小題1:The movie Inception is mentioned at the beginning of the article to ______.
A．encourage readers to watch the movie
B．tell readers about people with special dreaming abilities
C．inform readers about the science of dreams
D．warn reader about the threat of dream stealers
小題2:According to the article, how does a brain scanner work?
A．It records dreams.
B．It uses a special drug that causes no pain.
C．It finds out what dreams mean.
D．It takes pictures of brain activity and recreates images.
小題3: According to the article, which of the following statements about REM sleep is TRUE?
A．Most dreams occur in REM sleep.
B．Over the last ten years scientists have solved the mystery of REM sleep.
C．People always remember what they have dreamed in a REM sleep.
D．People can have REM sleep all night.
小題4: The article claims that ______.
A．dreams tell us a lot about a person’s character
B．dreams are connected to real life
C．dreams are useful and help keep our brains active
D．dreams are usually about meaningful things

Warning: reading too much Cinderella to your daughter may damage her emotional health in later life. A paper to be developed at the international congress of cognitive psychotherapy(認知心理療法) in Gothenburg suggests a link between the attitudes of women abused by their parents and early exposure to the wrong sort of fairy tales. It says girls who identified with Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast were more likely to say in destructive relationships as adults.
The theory was developed by Susan Darker Smith, a psychotherapist at the University of Derby. She interviewed 67 female abuse survivors and found that 61 put up with severe abuse because they believed they could change their partners with patience, composition and love. The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as children. Hardly any of the women in a control group, who had not experienced abuse, thought they could change their partners in this way.
The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as children. These women and men said they would leave a relationship rather than put up with abuse from a partner. Ms Darker Smith found the abused women were much more likely to identify with Cinderella and other submissive female characters in fairytales, who were later rescued by a stranger prince or hero.
Although most girls heard the stories, damage appeared to be done to those who adopted the characters as role models. “They believe if their love is strong enough they can change their parents’ behaviors,” she said.” Overexposure in children to stories that emphasize the transformational qualities of love may make women believe they can change their partners.” For example, they might never have understood the obvious flaw in the story of Rapunzel, who remained locked in a high tower until rescued by a knight on a white horse, who broke the door down. “The question,” said Ms Darker Smith, “is why she did not break the door down herself.”
小題1:The passage is especially intended for _________.
A．parents with young daughters
B．girls who like reading fairy stories
C．girls who think they can change their partners
D．parents with grown-up daughters
小題2:Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast are similar in that _________.
A．They all married some princes
B．They all changed their partners with love
C．They were all abused by their partners
D．They all put up with abuse
小題3:Which of the following statements is true of the women in a control group?
A．They don’t believe in fairy tales.
B．They don’t believe in the transformational qualities of love.
C．They have also experienced abuse.
D．They survived abuse.
小題4:What does the underlined word “submissive”in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?
A．kind-hearted B．passive C．gentle D．easy-going
