AThailand's southern beaches attract travelers with their clean water and dramatic cliffs (峭壁), but there's more to explore in this Southeast Asian country.Lopburi for history buffsBypass the tour groups at the ancient city of Ayutthaya and head two hours north of the capital, Bangkok, for a peaceful walk through Thai history. Lopburi, one of Thailand's oldest cities, boasts Khmer-era temples and the uncrowded ruins of King Narai's Palace, which was built in the 1600s. It's also known for the monkeys that gather at Phra Prang Sam Yot temple in the center of town.Ban Krut for beach bumsIn Ban Krut, travelers will find one of the cleanest and quietest stretches of white sandy beach within driving distance of Bangkok. This sleepy seaside community, known mostly by locals, is afive-hour drive or six-hour train trip down the Gulf of Thailand. Don't miss the magnificent Wat Tang Sai, a huge, fairy tale castle-like Buddhist temple.Cave for holiday hikersHiking trails, wetlands and forests make Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park a weekend adventure worthy of topping your Thailand to-do list. The park's crown jewel is the extraordinary Phraya Nakhon Cave. Come early to catch the picturesque chamber flooded with morning sunshine that spotlights the royal pavilion that sits inside.River Kwai for nature loversMost visitors come for the beaches, but the rivers and parks in Thailand's Kanchanaburi province have much to offer. Scenic trails and waterfalls abound in Sai Yok and Erawan national parks. Just two hours from Bangkok is the bridge made famous in the book Bridge over the River Kwai by French author, Pierre Boulle, and the 1957 Academy Award-winning 1957 film adaptation of the same name. Stay on the river at one of Kanchanaburi's many floating hotels, where you can travel to your front door.1．From which of the following can you learn more about Thai history?A．Ban Krut B．KanchanaburiC．Phraya Nakhon Cave D．Lopburi2．What can tourists do in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park?A．Visit temples.

But last June, Walmart told Alaskan fisheries that it would not be buying salmon sourced from fisheries not certified by the Marine Stewardship Council.Now Walmart is caught between two forces–Alaska fisheries and “buy American” enthusiasts who think the company’s fi rst responsibility should be to American industry, and environmentalists who think Walmart should make as strong a commitment to environmentally sustainable industry as possible.But from a broader perspective, this latest noise is an object lesson in why the concept of corporate (公司的) responsibility has shortcomings to begin with. Walmart—like most successful corporations—is pretty good at offering products their customers want at low prices. When it tries to promote broader public goods, like a clean environment, or lower unemployment for veterans, it’s nowhere near as successful. Here’s a few of Walmart’s more notable corporate-responsibility confusion:The Buy-American Debacle: Walmart’s first major corporate responsibility push was an effort in the 1980s to promote American-made products. But the campaign ran aground (搁浅) after a NBC investigation revealed that the company was actually selling products manufactured in India as “Made American.”The Going Green Campaign: Walmart launched on a sustainability campaign aimed at making the retail giants operations much more environmentally friendly. Though Walmart and the media have done much to raise visibility of these efforts, the actual results have been lacking. According to a recent report from the Instit ute for Local Self Reliance (ILSR), Walmart’s sustainability campaign is much more focused on making its operations appear green to customers than stopping doing things that would actually help the environment, like reducing emissions.In reality, these ex amples simply show that one can’t realistically expect corporations to behave in a way that is opposite to making profits. But that doesn’t mean that the goal of fishingsustainability isn’t achievable. It’s just that the corporate structure isn’t our best means of achieving them—the government is.4．What is the function of the Marine Stewardship Council?A．To advocate sustainable fishing practices. B．To persuade supermarkets to buy its products. C．To solve disagreements between fisheries and supermarkets.D．To guarantee the safety of goods supplied by supermarkets.5．According to the author, Walmart’s corporate responsibility is ________.A．confusing B．heavyC．environmental-friendly D．unsatisfying6．From Paragraph 5, we know ________.A．Walmart’s sustainability campaign worked wellB．Walmart might have profited at the cost of the environmentC．ILSR’s report was part of Walmart’s campaign planD．Walmart had no intention to protect the environment at all7．Who should be mainly responsible for achieving the goals of fishing sustainability?A．The company structure B．WalmartC．The government D．The Marine Stewardship CouncilCA cloudless Southern California sky looms over the Pro Park Course for the Pro Skate Park Series. Here to compete are some of the top female skaters in the world. The women skaters range in age from early adolescence to early 30s, but in a sport that embraces youth, there is one who stands out. At 8 years old, Sky Brown, would be the youngest skater, male or female, ever to compete at this series.She is known to some — a minor star of the viral age. When her first video was posted to YouTube, Sky initially gained a little internet fame as a premature and level-headed 4-year-old —highly intelligent, well-spoken beyond her years, hugely talented, and yet grounded. Four years later, it was announced that she would be competing at Huntington Beach. Still, the question remains: Is she truly ready, or will this be another case where reality comes crashing down hard on all the hype?And then, it turns out to be anything but. Sky goes out and presents one surprise after another. Commentators Neal Hendrix and Chris Pastras are left in awe, “Half of the pros can't do.” The only thing that makes the prodigy look like a kid is her size. In every other regard, she holds her own with skaters 10 and 20 years her senior. Before the competition at Huntington, Sky was a curiosity. After, she is a competitor.Sky's first memory of a skateboard is seeing her father, Stuart, doing a few tricks in front of the family home. “It always looked really fun,”says Sky. “I just kept begging to try it.” Sky progressed quickly, although she never had a formal coach. Somehow she just had the knack. Every movement, every shift in weight, every push and pull of body on board, she absorbed. Then, she did it herself.“You get so close to making it,” she says of her process, “and think you're about to land it, and then it takes you 100 more times. I'm always saying to my parents, 'Just one last try.'” If anyone was pushing, striving to get better, it was Sky herself, learning new tricks the same way everyone else does — by trying, failing, falling, and getting back up again.8．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To show Sky’s early experience.B．To show Sky’s talents from varied aspects.C．To show the public’s doubt about Sky’s competence.D．To show the public’s recognition of Sky’s performances.9．What do we know about Sky?A．She equals the senior skaters in the competition.B．She looks like a professional skater in terms of her figure.C．She participates in a competition inappropriate for the young.D．She has already become a household name before the competition.10．What is the main reason for Sky’s achievements?A．Her parents push her too hard.B．She practices hard and never quits.C．Her coach is very strict with her.D．Her father exerts a strong influence on her.11．What is the best title for the text?A．A Rocky Road Leads to Internet FameB．A Strong Competitor Stands out from CrowdC．An 8-year-old Skater Amazes the WorldD．A Wonder Shows at the Pro Skate Park SeriesDDon't get mad the next time you catch your teenager texting when he promised to be studying. He simply may not be able to resist. A University of lowa(UI) study found teenagers are far more sensitive than adults to the immediate effect or reward of their behaviors. The findings may help explain why the initial rush of texting may be more attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying."For the teenager, 'the rewards are attractive." says Professor Jatin Vaidya，an author of the study. "They draw adolescent. Sometimes, the rewards are a kind of motivation for them. Even when a behavior is no longer in a teenager's best interest to continue, they will, because the effect of the reward is still there and lasts much longer in adolescents than in adults ."For parents,that means limiting distraction (分心的事情）so teenagers can make better choices. Take the homework and social media dilemma: At 9 p.m., shut off everything except a computer that has no access to Facehook or Twitter, the researchers advise. "I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed access to technology," Vaidya says. But some help in netting their concentration is necessary for them so they can develop those impulse-co ntrol skills.”In their study,Vaidya and co-author Shaun Vecera note researchers generally believe teenagers are impulsive（冲动的)，make bad decisions，and engage in risky behavior because the frontal lobes （额叶）of their trains are not fully developed. But the UI researchers wondered. whether something more fundamental was going on with adolescents to cause behaviors independent of higher-level reasoning."We wanted to try to understand the brain's reward system how it change from chillhood to adulthood," Says Vaidya, who adds the reward character in the human brain is easier than decision-making. “We've been trying to understand the reward process in adolescence and whether there is more to adolescence behavior than an under-developed frontal lobe,”he adds.For their study ,the researchers persuaded 40 adolescents, aged 13 and 16,and 40 adults, aged 20 and 35 to participate.In the future,researchers hope to look into the psychological and neurological（神经学上的）aspects of their results.12．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．The initial rush of texting is less attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying. B．Always, rewards are attractive to teenagers.C．Resistance can be controlled well by adolescents.D．Getting rewards is the greatest motivation for adolescents to study.13．Which statement agrees with Vaidya's idea?A．The influence of the reward is weak in adolescents.B．Parents should help children in making decisions.C．Children should have access to the Internet.D．Children need help in refocusing their attention.14．What result does teenagers' brain underdevelopment lead to?A．Doing things after some thought.B．Making good decisions.C．Joining in dangerous actions.D．Escaping risky behavior.15．How did the researchers carry out their study?A．By making a comparison of brain examinations.B．By examining adults’ brain.C．By examining teenage brain.D．By building the train’s reward system.第二节(共5小题:每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
