Bangkok has become the world’s top tourist destination, with 15.98 million visitors projected to visit Thailand’s capital city this year, according to the third annual Global Destination Cities Index released by MasterCard on Monday. Based on data MasterCard collected from governments, central banks, related public agencies and airlines so far this year, the projection for the entire year says Bangkok is surpassing (超過) London, the previous holder of the top place, by a very narrow margin.
Monday’s report marked the first time an Asian city has been projected to be the top-ranked tourist destination. London came in second, with 15.96 million visitors expected in 2013, and Paris, third, with 13.92 million visitors. MasterCard looked at 132 cities.
Other Asian cities that made it to the Top-20 Global Destination Cities in 2013 include Singapore at number four, with 11.75 million visitors; Kuala Lumpur at number eight, with 9.2 million visitors; Hong Kong at number nine, with 8.72 million visitors; Seoul at number 11, with 8.19 million visitors; Shanghai at number 14, with 6.5 million visitors, Tokyo at number 16, with 5.8 million visitors, and Taipei, with 5.19 million visitors.
The study found that Bangkok is experiencing a large increase in its number of tourists in 2013, up 9.8% from 2009. That compares to New York’s increase at 5.0% and London’s at 3.8%. Paris, meanwhile, saw a small dip in its number of tourists (negative 0.7%).
Caroline Lledo, who was visiting Bangkok from France, said Thailand has many offerings. “We like culture and the people are so nice. We also love shopping here,” Ms. Lledo said. MasterCard Worldwide’s global economic adviser Yuwa Hedrick-Wong cited (引用) overall value for money spent for why Bangkok is attractive. That is true for Thailand overall as well.

Frank works at a school called Tumul K’in,which means “New Day” in the local language (Mayan Mopan).The school was founded in 2001 by Belizean Filiberto Penados,who received funding(基金) from the United Nations for the project.
Frank said that there were about 60 students in five grades at the school,and they ranged from 12 to 20 years old.
It was different from other schools in the area,Frank said.While most trained youths for work that would take them away from their villages,he said,Tumul K’in trained them for those things they could use locally,such as farming and various trades.
“The difference in education is that students at Tumul K’in learn everything from mathematics and science to agricultural practices and how to raise livestock(家畜),” he said.“The main idea is to help maintain the Mayan lifestyle of village living and help it to be passed on to the next generation.”
As for the radio station,Frank said that the effort was part of a programme originally founded by the UN.
“The radio station has been named ‘Ak Kutan FM’,or ‘New Day FM’.It will broadcast health information,such as where people can go to get tested for HIV,as well as report local and national news,” he said.For most,it was the first interaction(互動) with the local community that Mayans in this remote village would have.

I was taking a train to London’s Victoria Station. I had noticed that the carriage was noise and filled with people.
Before long, a train inspector comes to check out tickets. A passenger realized he couldn’t find his ticket but became quite upset. Then everyone in the carriage began searching the ticket, which was eventually found under a seat several rows from his owner. The person who found a ticket smiled with pleasure at his success.
No one in the carriage had previous spoken to or even noticed the ticket-owner before. Yet, they had so quickly offered the strangers their help. If we could show concern to others on need, the world would be a better place to live in.

Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. 【1】 .
Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they’ll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.
First of all,good talkers ask questions. 【2】 . One well-known businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It’s a common question,but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. 【3】 .
Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers .This point seems clear, but it isn’t. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. 【4】 . If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he’s really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’s time for you to change the subject.
Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you’re saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” 【5】 . Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they’ve known you half their life.
A.
B. You can become a popular person.
C. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question.
D. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
E. If you want to see that person again, don’t keep it a secret.

For college students, graduation signals an exciting new beginning. 【1】 Many students wonder: What do I do now? What career is best for me? Most expert advice on choosing careers boils down to the following points.
Knowing Yourself
What are your interests? Abilities? Skills? 【2】 The results may surprise you! These can be useful, but they’re not the last word.
Investigating
Investigating occupations is much more difficult. For most people, there isn’t just one ‘right’ job, but several that could be satisfying. 【3】 Talk to people who have occupations that interest you. Find out what they like and dislike about their job.
【4】
Many people choose their careers because they believe strongly in a particular cause. Some might choose to work in areas like medicine, charity or environmental protection. Some have a strong interest in history or a love for the arts. 【5】 So in cases like these, the field is often chosen first, rather than the occupation itself. So if you’ve chosen a field, self-assessment will help you find your place in it. Invest some time and effort, and find the right career for you.
A. Try a self-assessment quiz.
B. Search through books and Web sites.
C. Finding your place.
D. But it can also bring a lot of uncertainty and confusion.
