C
Where do you want to travel this year? What are some of your favorite vacation spots? See some places we have picked as the top destinations for 2010．
● Sri Lanka
The island feels like one big tropical zoo: elephants roam freely, water buffaloes （水牛） idle in paddy fields and monkeys swing from trees．And then there's the beautiful coastline．Among the most scenic is Nilaveli Beach in the Tamil north．Vacationers can lie on poolside hammocks （吊床） under palm trees or swim in its crystal-clear waters．Or they can order cocktails at the Nilaveli Beach Hotel．
● Shanghai
Following up on Beijing's successful Olympics, Shanghai is expecting 70 million visitors to its World Expo．From May 1 to Oct．31, more than 200 nations and regions will turn a two-square-mile site by the city's Huangpu River into an architectural playground: Switzerland will be represented by a building shaped like a map of that country, while England is in the celebrated hands of the designer Thomas Heatherwick．However, by contrast, the United States pavilion might be mistaken for a suburban （郊區(qū)的） office park．
● Copenhagen
Last year, thousands of environmentalists challenged world leaders in Copenhagen for the climate summit, but the Danish capital has already emerged as one of the world's greenest, and maybe coolest, cities．In Copenhagen, long, flat roads all have bicycle paths where locals cycle around the city．Away from all the modernism and the happy cyclists, cultural thrill-seekers are being attracted to the district of Norrebro, where the city's young crowd the cafes and galleries or dance in local clubs until the early hours．
64．According to the passage, visitors to the place with natural beauty can have ______．      
A．a(chǎn) vacation on the palm beach

科目：高中英語 來源：2013屆安徽省馬鞍山市高三第一次教學質(zhì)量檢測英語試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

The number of smokers in England is about 8 million. According to the Department of Health, smoking is the biggest cause of early death in the country. Smokers in England have been asked to give up smoking for 28 days this month, in an action backed by Cancer Research UK and the British Heart Foundation.
Research shows people who manage not to light up for this length of time are 5 times more likely to kick the habit. Public health experts say campaigns that include a combination of hard-hitting ads and supportive messages work best.
Quitting smoking can be difficult. However, people are much more likely to succeed if other people are doing the same than if they try to do it alone and go cold turkey. Robert West, Director of Tobacco Studies at University College London, points out how pressure from people around can prevent a smoker going on smoking. “We are social animals,” he said.
The action has met some doubts among readers of the BBC News Online website. Some compared it to asking people to stop eating as a way of fighting overweight. Others doubt the action’s effectiveness. “Its weakness is that it fails to explain why a person smokes, and the reasons are as many as the number of smokers”, says someone who signed as BluesBerry.
Another reader, Cazz, has decided to give it some credit. He says:“ Campaigns like this won’t necessarily inspire the majority of smokers to quit, but may encourage those thinking about quitting to set a date and try. Surely it’s worth a shot. ”
【小題1】What does the text mainly talk about?

A．A new action to quit smoking.
B．A way of fighting overweight.
C．A country with the most smokers.
D．The biggest cause of early death.
【小題2】The underlined phrase “go cold turkey” in the third paragraph means “_______”.
A．buy a cold turkeyB．eat too much foodC．stop a bad habitD．get much support
【小題3】Why is it easier to stop smoking when other people are doing the same?
A．Because people usually respect each other.
B．Because they’re faced with the same pressure.
C．Because people are influenced by each other.
D．Because they keep the same animals as pets.
【小題4】What’s Cazz’ s attitude in the last paragraph?
A．Distant．B．Doubtful．C．Surprised．D．Approving
