Washington D.C. is No.1

It is best known as a city of monument. In the middle of traffic circles or on street corners, you'll find statues, plaques (匾牌), and simple blocks of marble there. They honor the people who helped shape the US.

And on Oct. 20, Lonely Planet, one of the world's largest travel guides, named Washington D.C. the No.1 city in its list of “Best in Travel 2015”.

“The year 2015 is a fantastic year to visit Washington D.C.,” Tom Hall, editorial director of Lonely Planet, told The Guardian. “The 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's assassination (暗殺) makes this year big for Washington D.C. The famous top hat of America's 16th president and the gun that fired the deadly shot will be on display. Add that to its incredible eats, performing arts and museums. The nation's capital is looking better than ever.”

There are a lot of free museums in the city. When British scientist James Smithson died in 1829, he left a will giving his money to the United States to open a museum at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institution. It has turned out to be a wonderful gift, and the institution now covers 19 museums. And of course, no Washington tour is complete without seeing the White House, the Capitol, and the Supreme Court, which are home to the three pillars (核心) of the

US government. But there is more to explore in the center of the US power. It is a city you can walk across, with wide?open avenues, old neighborhoods, and river views.

And as USA_Today notes, diversity is another reason to “fall in love with the city”. “There is a lot of diversity in Washington D.C., seen in its people, its neighborhoods and its landmarks. From Chinatown to Little Ethiopia, visiting the nation's capital is like seeing the world in one trip,” said the newspaper.

1.One of the reasons why Washington D.C. is worth a visit in 2015 is that ________.

A.food and performing arts there are much better than anywhere else in the world

B.the top hat of 15th president of America will be on show in the year 2015

C.seeing the museums will make your tour in Washington D.C. complete

D.the diversity of the city offers you an opportunity to see more in one trip

2.Which of the following details is RIGHT according to the article?

A.The 150th anniversary of Lincoln's assassination makes the tour more worthwhile.

B.The first reason why Washington D.C. is worth a visit is that it is the capital of the country.

C.Lonely Planet decides to make Washington D.C. a most?visited place in 2015.

D.All the museums in Washington D.C. were named after the Smithsonian Institution.

3.What is USA Today according to the last paragraph?

A.A well?known company.

B.A newspaper.

C.An advanced institution.

D.A website.

At least 3 people are dead in the Philippines now that Typhoon Hagupit has landed.

The typhoon, which hit the eastern Philippines over the weekend, has blown down trees and sent more than 650?thousand people into shelters before weakening.

“There were very strong winds last night. The roof was beginning to move, and rain was getting inside the rooms,” said a villager.

The storm hit with gusts (強(qiáng)風(fēng)) of over 100 miles per hour. And while the storm has slowed considerably from the super typhoon level it had last week, Hagupit still remains strong enough to create more damage.

Christopher Perez is a local weather forecaster. He says, “We are continuing to expect bad weather and rough ocean waves. Threats of possible flash floods and landslides (滑坡) as well as possible storm waves are occurring in coastal areas.”

Hagupit is expected to roll into the South China Sea tomorrow.

It's currently going westward toward the southern tip of Vietnam, meaning it's unlikely to affect China.

Hagupit's strength in the Philippines is much less severe than Typhoon Haiyan, which rolled through the country in 2013.

Haiyan's tsunami?like storm waves and killer winds left thousands of people dead and leveled_entire_villages.

The central Philippines is still trying to recover from last year's massive storm waves.

1.We can know from the passage that the Typhoon Hagupit is ________.

A.getting stronger

B.weakening

C.going to affect China soon

D.moving more than 120 miles per hour

閱讀理解.

The Internet is full of headlines that grab your attention with buzzwords (流行術(shù)語). But often when we click through, we find the content hardly delivers and it wastes our time. We close the page, feeling we've been cheated. These types of headlines are called “click bait”.

A headline on Business Insider reads:“This phrase will make you seem more polite”. First, when you click through, you find another headline:“Four words to seem more polite”. Then, on reading the article, you find it's actually an essay about sympathy. And what are the four words? They're “Wow, that sounds hard”. On some video websites, you might encounter headlines such as “Here's what happens when six puppies visited a campus”. It turns out that it's just some uneventful dog footage (連續(xù)鏡頭).

Nowadays, with the popularity of social media, many news outlets tweet (推送) click bait links to their stories. These tweets take advantage of the curiosity gap or attempt to draw the reader into a story using a question in the headline. These click bait headlines are so annoying that someone is attempting to save people's time by exposing news outlet click bait through social media. The Twitter account @ SavedYouAClick, run by Jake Beckman, is one such example.

Beckman's method is to grab tweets linking to a story and retweet them with a click?saving comment. For example, CNET tweeted “So iOS 8 appears to be jailbreakable but ...”, with a link to its coverage of Apple's product announcements. Beckman retweeted it with this comment attached: “...it hasn't been jailbroken yet.”

Since founding the account, Beckman's Twitter experiment has brought him more than 131,000 followers. Beckman said,“@ SavedYouAClick is just my way of trying to help the Internet be less terrible.” Asked about his goal, he said,“I'd love to see publishers think about the experience of their readers first. I think there's an enormous opportunity for publishers to provide readers with informative updates that include links so you can click through and read more.”

1.The article on Business Insider turns out to be________.

A.useful suggestions on politeness

B.a(chǎn)n essay about another topic

C.a(chǎn)n article hard to understand

D.a(chǎn) link to a video website

2.Why are readers often cheated by tricky headlines?

A.Social media has become more popular.

B.Readers have questions to be solved.

C.Such headlines are fairly attractive.

D.There're always stories behind them.

3.Beckman attached his comment to CNET's tweet to ______.

A.criticize CNET

B.save readers' time

C.a(chǎn)dvertise Apple's new product

D.tell readers something about iOS 8

4.In the last paragraph, Beckman appeals that ________.

A.publishers should be more responsible for the link

B.readers think about their needs before reading

C.publishers provide more information for readers

D.people work together to make the Internet less terrible
