26、，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Are you looking forward to treating yourself to a travel abroad? Well, Lonely Planet, the worlds largest travel guidebook publisher, releases its top picks for travel destinations every year. Here are some of the winners for 2018. Have a look and maybe theyll give you some ideas abou

27、t your next vacation. Canberra, Australia Canberra is not the most famous of Australias cities. People think of Sydney and Melbourne before they think of Canberra. Still, Canberra is the countrys capital and political center. And recently, it has become a hit with the words travelers. Lonely Planet

28、highlights three attractions that make Canberra a place to consider spending some time in. First, nearby cities like Braddon and NewActon have great vigor. Braddon was once an industrial area; today, it has cafes, shops and restaurants. NewActon has a stunning（极漂亮的）new hotel built entirely of native

29、 Australian wood. As youd expect, these fashionable areas boast many small art galleries that go well with the national museums that are invariably（总是）found in a nations capital. Canberra has a full calendar of events for 2018, including folk and wine harvest festivals that will surely bring travele

30、rs from both within and outside of Australia. Detroit. US This choice by Lonely Planet is even more surprising than Canberra. For a long time, Detroit was an industrial city. It was a center for car manufacturing（制造业）and therefore a heavily blue collar location. Much of that industry is gone today.

31、But the city is now gaining appeal as a tourist destination for Americans and non-Americans alike. People are attracted to culture, and Detroit certainly has a cultural tradition. Starting from the 1950s, it was a center for African-American pop music. The famous music company Motown was founded in

32、Detroit. Today, the Motown Historical Museum is a must-see for any visitor to the city. The markets, murals, restaurant and sports facilities add to the Detroit vibe（氛围）, as does the new streetcar system, which makes it easy to get around. According to Lonely Planet, Detroit is a fine example of the

33、 American “comeback” story: Its had its tough times, but now its back in business. Seville, Spain Whereas Canberra and Detroit are new world cities, Seville in Spain is classic old-world. It is a historic city, dominated by a magnificent cathedral and a sprawling（蔓延的）network of medieval streets. Sev

34、ille was the site of many historical events, all of which are still tangible（可感知的）for todays visitors. It was once the capital of Moorish Spain. And Seville has its own connection with the new world; Back in the 16th century, trade with colonies in the Americas made it wealthy. Find out more at the

35、Archivo de Indias, which “provides a fascinating insight into Spains colonial history”, according to Lonely Planet. But Seville is also a modern city with all the conveniences that the modern traveler expects. Like all Lonely Planet tourist destinations, it boasts cafes, restaurants and art gallerie

36、s for visitors who have finished absorbing the citys historical sites. 46. What can we conclude from paragraph two? A. Canberra has become the most popular destination in Australia. B. Braddon is well known for its industrial buildings and shopping malls. C. NewActon features a hotel made of native

37、Australian wood. D. Canberras small art galleries appeal to visitors more than national museums. 47. According to the last two paragraphs, _. A. Seville is a new world city in Spain B. Seville is rich in historical sites C. Detroit tourists are fascinated by its industry D. Detroit tourists are main

38、ly attracted to new streetcar system 48. The purpose of the article is mainly to _. A. compare top travel destinations B. recommend some lesser-known destinations C. show how industrial and historic cities attract visitors D. inform us of some most popular travel destinations for 2018 B Drones（无人机）a

39、re slowly starting to become part of our everyday lives. They used to be just known for helping create the action shots used in online videos and movies, but creative new ways to use drones are being invented all the time. Just take a look at this latest use: A solar-powered “transformer drone” has

40、been developed by scientists from the University of Minnesota. US. Its aim is to make farmers work easier by letting them survey their crops from the air. The drone can take off like a helicopter, then change its shape mid-air to fly like a plane. The design means it can take off almost anywhere and

41、 hover（悬停）during flight to get a stable view of the land below. Despite its large wingspan of 2.1 meters, the drone weighs just under 4 kilograms. Thanks to solar cells on its wings, it has enough power to fly nonstop during the daytime. Its designed to be used by farmers to spot plant disease, mana

42、ge water use and even spray pesticides in the exact place needed, reducing waste. The transformer drone is but a small part of a bigger picture. When asked what a drone looks like, most of us would probably picture a remote-controlled toy, or perhaps a large, unmanned military aircraft. But those im

43、ages could soon be quite different, as drones are becoming increasingly smaller and cheaper to make. They can now gather in groups of hundreds to fly like a flock of birds. Known as swarms（集群）, theyre seen as the next step forward in the drone industry. Swarms are clever. There is no leader in a swa

44、rm because it is a self-organizing system in which each drone is equal. This allows each drone in a swarm to search an area efficiently, or for the whole swarm, to fly together without colliding（碰撞）with one another. And only one operator is needed to control the whole swarm. Swarms are also tough. O

45、ne missile（导弹）can bring down an aircraft, but a swarm can lose dozens of members and keep going. In fact, we have already had the luck of seeing swarms of drones in real life. In February, 300 drones made by US tech company Intel formed a swarm in the shape of the American flag during Lady Gagas Sup

46、er Bowl halftime show, lighting up the night sky. And Chinese company EHang recently used 1,000 drones to display a map of China and the Chinese character for “blessings”. In the long term, as researchers at Harvards Wyss Institute predict, small swarming drones might become as much a part of our en

47、vironment as insects. Their RoboBee project is developing tiny drones smaller than a paper clip to collect weather data. So maybe in the next few years, our skies will be filled with thousands of drone swarms. 49. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article? A. Transformer dro

48、ne was designed to help farmers predict local weather. B. Transformer drone can fly all year around without stopping. C. Transformer drone can check on plants from the middle of the air. D. Transformer drone is very tiny and works in large groups. 50. We can conclude from the article that drone swar

49、ms _. A. are mainly used as military aircraft B. work well thanks to the teamwork of many operators C. have an advantage because of their self-organization D. are efficient with a smart and powerful leader in a swarm 51. We can learn from the last three paragraphs that _. A. Lady Gaga was the first

50、person to have used drones in a performance B. the RoboBee project is based on our understanding of birds flying patterns C. the large number of drones has become a threat to our environment D. the spread of drones will benefit human beings in various ways C Maddie Hoffman is battling against epidem

51、olytic ichthyosis her skin can grow up to ten times faster than normal, peels（剥落）and becomes so dry that she cant move. Each day she undergoes a two-hour routine to remove dead skin cells and protect her from catching a life threatening infection. Her mother, Emily, was told that her daughter may no

52、t survive after she was born. She wasnt allowed to hold her daughter until she was seven days old in an isolation room and she had to wear gloves and a mask. She said, “It was visible at birth that she had ichthyosis and shortly after that all the layers of skin fell off in sheets. She was bright re

53、d and looked like a burn victim. The nurse told us, You realize your baby may not survive? It was very scary.” Her mothers concern Emily added, “she has one of the most severe forms of the condition, requiring aggressive and painful treatment administered for up to three hours every day. The build-u

54、p of scaling is her worst enemy. The more it layers up the more likely she is to have skin infections. As each hour goes by, her skin gets harder for her to move; she gets drier and starts to flake-off. There are days when she can hardly move. The most affected part is her feet. Any friction causes

55、blistering （起泡）, and even socks and shoes affect her. We have a daily battle with her blisters and her not being able to work tirelessly to stop them from getting infected.” Bullied at school Emily said, “Bullying is a big deal for her. She goes through a lot of stares and teasing. Kids get nervous

56、seeing her skin shedding and bully her about her smell caused by the skin build-up. Seeing people stare at her and look with disgust, as a mother, I feel heartbroken. That is why we try to speak out. Maddie wants to help children in general to stay motivated and positive. We try to teach others that

57、 its okay to be different. So in spite of everything Maddie is going through, she is an extremely happy and optimistic girl who loves to help others and is determined to raise awareness.” Dreams for the future Maddie, who is a Make-A-Wish kid, as dreams of dancing with Ellen DeGeneres to raise aware

58、ness of her condition. Unfortunately, Emily, a single mother, and Maddie, a suffering girl, have been rejected disability said financially. Emily said, “Its very hard for us without a lot of support for her condition. Ichthyosis is very financially draining. But we choose to stay as positive as poss

59、ible and take each day as it comes, in the hope one day it will be cured.” 52. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph one refer to?
