11、上的相应位置。AIf you intend to pay a visit to America, here are a number of outstanding websites that can make your American dream come true.www. 101usaholidays. co. ukThis is the latest offering that features 101 holiday ideas to the USA.

12、Martin Luther King to a golfing break in Arizona and a cycling and wine-tasting trip in Californias Napa Valley. Narrow down what youre looking for whether by price, region, theme and who will be traveling and then just the photos of the relevant holidays remain on view. Its a really clever design.h

13、ttp:/byways. OrgThe National Scenic Byways Program covers 150 memorable roads. Some are natural scenic routes, such as Route l along the California coast. Others focus on history (such as Route 66) or man-made attractions (the Las Vegas Strip). For each, youre provided with a map telling the routes

14、length and how long is allowed.www. oyster. comThis is the best website for reviews of hotels in US cities and tourist sites. There are photos of each hotel.

18、a newly established website.BAt home, ordering food from a menu is a normal, everyday routine. I dont even give it a second thought. In China, its a whole other story! Here, ordering is a fun game of trial and error, and the adventure begins before the food is even served!Many restaurants in central

19、 Beijing advertise “English language menus”, but the translations can just add to the confusion. Although accompanying pictures can be a helpful relief, the translations often make the whole experience even more amusing. During my first few weeks in China I tried some delicious dishes with strange n

20、ames. As an experiment, my friends and I would order things like “students addicted to chicken gristle (软骨)” and “red burned lion head”. It was always fun to see what landed on our table. Eventually we learned that “lion head” was actually pork, and “students” are “addicted” to diced (切碎的) chicken w

21、ith green pepper.Recently, I came across a busy restaurant down a narrow side street in a Beijing hutong. It was lunchtime and the small room was packed with people sitting on small stools (凳子) eating noodles. I was hungry and cold, and the steaming bowls looked irresistible! I sat myself down and c

22、alled out for a “caidan!” In response, the waitress pointed to a wall at the back of the restaurant. The wall was full of Chinese characters describing numerous dishes. There was only one sentence in English: “crossing over the bridge noodles”.I had never heard of the dish and had no idea what it wo

23、uld taste like. I took agamble and ordered one bowl of “crossing over the bridge noodles”. A few minutes later the waitress carried over a heavy bowl full of broth (肉汤) and I quickly dug in. It was the best bowl of noodles I had ever tasted! I have been back again and again and each time I point at

24、the one English sentence “crossing over the bridge noodles”. I always enter a restaurant in China feeling excited and a little nervous. Who knows what the next ordering adventure will reveal?24. How does the writer find the English-language menus in many of Beijings restaurants?A. Confusing but amus

25、ing. B. Easy to understand.C. Boring and annoying. D. Accurate and helpful.25. The underlined word “gamble” in the last paragraph probably means _.A. taste B. look C. step D. risk26.

The passage is developed mainly in the form of _.A. examples and statements B. comparison and conclusionC. causes and effects D. time and descriptionCDo you b

27、elieve that things are connected for no scientific reason at all? For example, do you avoid saying the word “four” to avoid bad luck? If so, you have a superstition (迷信). And youre not alone all kinds of people have them.For example, Portugals soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo always steps onto the

28、 pitch (球场) with his right foot first, according to The Telegraph. And sports players are not alone in having superstitions. A visitor once asked the Nobel Prize winning scientist Niels Bohr whether he really believed that the horseshoe hed hung at his country home was lucky. “Of course not,” the Da

29、nish physicist said. “But I understand its lucky whether you believe in it or not.”One recent study found that even scientists at MIT and other top US schools tended to look for a meaning in natural events, similar to the connection between stepping on the pitch and playing soccer well, according to

30、 The Atlantic. When the researchers gave the scientists little time to answer questions, they were twice as likely to agree with statements such as “Trees produce oxygen so that animals can breathe” as they were when they had more time to think about their reply.It seems that fear can make people th

31、ink differently in this way, too. In a British study, students imagined meeting a “witch” who said she would cast (施魔法) an evil spell(符咒) on them. About half said a scientist should not be worried about the spell. Yet each of them said that, personally, they wouldnt let the witch do it to them.So wh

32、y are so many of us superstitious? Well, it seems to be our way of dealing with the unknown. “Many people quite simply just want to believe,” Brian Cronk, a professor of psychology at Missouri Western State University, said in a 2008 interview. “The human brain is always trying to work out why things ha
