Many people use a long weekend for agetaway, a short trip to leave the stress of their everyday lives behind and explore, learn, or relax.Hotel RomanceMany hotels and resorts feature something special to start the getaway, such as champagnes (香槟酒), flowers, or a fruit basket in the room on arrival. Getaway packages usually include a room with something special, a heart shaped bed, for example. Additional benefits could be room service meals or other private dining, plus tickets or discounts for local attractions.Visit a SpaSpa getaways can take place at a location that focuses only on spa services or at a hotel that offers a spa as one of its features. Some spas emphasize treatments fit for their geographic area or a local attraction. A spa in a grape growing region might provide grape juice masks, or a hotel near a hot spring could offer mineral baths. Most spas offer a range of massage (按摩), health and beauty treatments, so a spa getaway can be relaxing with other benefits.Learn a SkillA long weekend may not be enough time to become an expert at something new, but it provides a way for people to begin their explorations. Some organizations offer intensive(集中的)courses that last two or three days. People with special interests can get away from their routines while learning such things as how to make beer, speak a new language, or take better photos.Help OthersSome organizations cooperate with businesses to have accommodations and activities for short-term volunteers. Most volunteer vacations involve ecology friendly or charity activities. A volunteer getaway is a way to relieve stress and help others at the stone time.Stay in a National ParkFor those who want to relax in a rural environment, a national park fits the bill. Most national parks provide camping areas for tents and trailers. Several have cabins (小屋) within the parks available to rent.A getaway to a national park provides privacy, stress relief, and the time to get to know some important natural resources.21.

The case at hand was a Guatemalan man, aged 34, who had a fever and many other medical problems. His condition was not improving, and there was not much hope that he would live.Dr. Mellinkoff asked to see the patient. He introduced himself in Spanish and, in a very gentle voice, asked how he felt. The patient smiled and said everything was all right. Then the doctor asked if he was able to eat. The patient said that he had no desire to eat“Are you getting food you like?”The patient said nothing“Do you get the kind of food you have at home?”The answer was no.The doctor put his hand on the mans shoulder and his voice was very soft.“If you had food that you liked, would you eat it?”“Yes, yes.” the patient said.The change in the patients appearance couldnt have been more obvious. Nothing was said, but it was easy to tell that a message had been sent and had also been received. Later, the doctor asked why the Guatemalan man wasnt getting food he could eatOne of the students said, “We all know how difficult it is to get the kitchen to make special meals.”“Suppose,” the doctor replied, “you felt a certain medicine was absolutely necessary but that our hospital didnt carry it, would you accept defeat or would you insist the hospital meet your request?” “I would probably insist,” the student said.“Very well, the doctor said. “You might want to try the same method in the kitchen. It wont be easy, but I can help you. Meanwhile, lets get some food inside this man as fast as possible, and stay with it. Or hell be killed by hunger. By the way, there must be someone among you who can speak Spanish. If we want to make real progress, we need to be able to talk with him.”Three weeks later, Doctor Mellinkoff told me that the Guatemalan man had left the hospital under his own power. It takes more than medicine to help sick people; you also have to talk to them and make them comfortable25.

By 2050, emissions (排放) from planes are expected to become one of the largest contributors to global warming.Thats why researchers at MIT are designing a completely new type of airplane for NASA that willenable greener airplanes to take flight before 2050. The 180-passenger D “double bubble” series was designed to replace the Boeing 737 class aircraft, the most popular jetliner in the world right now. The design is called a “double bubble” because it uses two partial cylinders (气缸) placed side by side. Those two cylinders create a wider structure that looks like twosoap bubbles joined together. In todays commercial airplanes, air flows directly into the engines located on the planes wings. That high-speed air flow drags on the plane, and requires more fuel to overcome the design inefficiency. MITs design changes all that. By moving the engines to the planes tail, they take in slower moving air present in the wake of the fuselage (机舱). Less drag means less fuel is needed to get the plane the samedistance. Burning less fuel can help passengers wallet as well as the environment. The environmental implicationsof saving energy are as just as clear: the fewer emissions that planes spout（喷射） into the atmosphere, the healthierour planet. But for passengers, we still have a couple decades to wait before any of these planes make it onto the runway. NASAs goal is to make sure the planes that MIT has designed can take off by 2035.32. The best feature of the double bubble flight is that _.A. it will make no noiseB. it will hold more passengersC. it is designed to save fuelD. it needs no runways to take off33. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?A. Emission from planes are contributing the most to the global warmingB. Airplanes are very noisy for the environmentC. MITs new design will save passengers moneyD. Its expected that NASAs goal will be realized by the year 2035.34. Whats the main idea of the text?A. Here is Boeing 737s terminalB. Researchers are designing greener aircraftC. Passengers will enjoy lower pricesD. Airlines attract passengers with new planes35. The passage comes from a _.A. News reportB. Science journalC. Travel guideD. Environment magazine 第一节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Speaking English is not only about using proper grammar.
