10、最佳选项，并在题卡上将该项涂黑。AOne of the most exciting and interesting international cities to visit is London, England. Here is a look at four free things to do during a vacation to London.Visit the Trafalgar SquareBuilt more than 200 years ago, Trafalgar Square is a popular gathering place for locals and trave

11、lers, too. The area is close to good shopping and dining opportunities, and there are usually some sorts of public events or celebrations going on there during most weekends. Wander Along the ThamesVisitors wanting to see some great architecture, attractions and views should spend an afternoon walki

12、ng along the River Thames. The best place to start is at the world-famous London Bridge crossing over the river and you can walk all the way to Westminster Bridge a short distance away. Travelers doing this will find themselves passing by a great many historic buildings.Explore the Local MarketsWhil

13、e purchasing items at any of the open markets in London is not necessarily free, walking through them to view the merchants , their products and the other shoppers is of great fun. Some of the popular open markets in London worth visiting include Spitafields Market, Portobello Road Market and Leaden

14、hall Market.Visit the BritishMuseumOne of the top museums in the entire United Kingdom can be found in London, and it charges no admission for entry. This museum is so highly regarded that it is not only popular with locals and tourists, it is also seen as a major and valuable scholarly resource.21.

17、luable scholarly resource B Since so much written language we see today comes from a glowing screen, language has begun to change through our interaction with technology. Social media and the Internet have had a rapid and great effect on the English language, and not necessarily for the better. More

18、 and more people have found themselves writing in pieces of words and using unclear acronyms(单词首字母) both in written and spoken language. How many times have you typed “LOL” in response to a humorous message? Referred to someone as your “BFF”? Exclaimed, “OMG!” during a particularly shocking event? S

19、ocial media has affected the words we use in our everyday life. Abbreviations and acronyms commonly known as “text talk” have made their way into both spoken and written language. These are becoming increasingly popular as people struggle for brief expressions to meet word limits on social media lik

20、e Weibo and Twitter. In addition, the speed of the Internet means language is changing faster than ever. You no longer have to be published through physical and traditional means to bring word trends to public attention. Many people believe the overuse of these new terms is a passing trend, and nobo

21、dy will be using them in just a couple of decades. With the change of language, older terms will surely disappear and fall out of style, and newer and more Internet language will take their place. But the Oxford English Dictionary thinks the contrary. In 2011, a lot of Internet terms including, “LOL

22、,” “BPB,” “OMD,” and “BFF” were added to the dictionary, making these acronyms official parts of the English language. According to the dictionary writers, these terms arent going anywhere anytime soon. The words you use in everyday life are a reflection of yourself; this is especially true on the I

23、nternet with the lack of interaction in real life. With the Internet and social media rapidly getting popular, soon your words may be all you have left. Make them good ones.24.

25、meet word limits on social media26. The “new terms” are considered to be part of a passing trend because_ . A. they are not published in a traditional way B. they are not used as formal language C. theyll be replaced by even newer ones D. they are not supported by dictionary writers27. The writer of

26、 the passage thinks that Internet languages _. A. have positive influence B. should be properly used C. are getting more popular D. are useless for interaction CThere was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier: “Paper

27、or plastic?” Well, which type of bag would you choose?While all types of bags have some influence on the environment, it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder. They are made from a renewable source, break down easily, burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled. However, the

28、producing process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true?Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides, the influence on forest

29、s is very serious. It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags, which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recycling, the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. Research show

30、s it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper.Even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones, plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. In Ireland, for example, a tax has been introduced to discourage the use of pl

31、astic bags. People have to pay 22 cents for every plastic bag, and as a result, their use has dropped quickly.Theres no doubt that it makes more sense to reuse these bags. However, we dont seem to be doing that at present. That may be because they fall apart quickly. If so, cloth bags are a better c

32、hoice, but still, their production also has a bad influence on the environment. So what to do? How should we answer the question of “Paper or plastic?” It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “What can I do to help the environment?”28. The questions in Paragraph 1 are used to_. A. introduce points for discussion B. tell readers how to s
