The city of San Francisco is a wonderful tourist attraction that offers many different things to see and do. The best way for a traveler to get a good look at the city is to take one of the many different tours there

Walk to Tour the City

When touring the city by walking, you aren't going to walk much. What's more, there are far more benefits. This kind of tour allows you to see as many buildings of the city as possible. A tour of the city on foot usually focuses on a more localized neighborhood level, which can be very interesting in a number of different ways.

Hit the Waters of San Francisco Bay

The waters of San Francisco Bay have played an important role in the city's development over the last century. Touring San Francisco from the water is completely unique way for you to see this wonderful city.

Take a Bus Tour

If you want to see a wide variety of attractions from all over the city, one of the best things you could do is to book a tour through our company that offers services here. A bus tour of San Francisco is one of the most complete ways to experience the city

Tour San Francisco From the Air

While it is one of the most expensive ways to see San Francisco, touring the city from the air is one of the most unique and exciting ways to see the city. Seeing the city from high above allows you to get a full view of the city as tour guides point out attractions from high above. If you do decide to tour San Francisco by air, you'll be creating memories that you won't forget forever.

We are a travel agency providing high-quality services and discounts. For more information, please click here.

In February, before the outbreak of Covid-19, I sold my old-style car. I thought it wouldn’t be a big deal: I live in London within walking distance of three subway stations and countless bus stops. I own a bike; there are taxis and supermarket delivery services, and I joined a car-share program, all of which can save me a big sum of money to fund my future green transport.

Then the lockdown(封锁) happened and being car-free suddenly felt like a big deal. I couldn’t get a supermarket delivery. I couldn’t take my broken garden chairs to the recycling centre. And a few days into lockdown somebody stole my bike!

When the lockdown stopped, it just got worse. I was eager to go to the countryside or beach, but taking public transport or taxi felt like too much of a risk. The car share program turned out to be unbelievably difficult to deal with—every area has its own rules about where you can and can’t park, and taking car-share vehicle(车辆) beyond the city is impossible. And renting car is clearly expensive and time-consuming.

So last month I did a U-turn. I felt guilty but also a sense of satisfaction: I had tried, but the pandemic(疫情) beat me. Most of all, I got freedom, sitting behind the wheel(方向盘) and getting to wherever I want. Don’t get me wrong. I still expect to travel without creating greenhouse gases and pollution. But life in a pandemic has drawn attention to some of the disadvantages of public transport, such as time and money wasted on the road to offices and the risk of Covid-19. It has also stressed our need to review our relationship with the environment. Problems with public transport have meant that the ownership and use of a car has become quite a useful thing.

24. Why did the author sell his car in the first paragraph?

A. His car was too old to drive.

B. He tried to lead a greener life.

C. He felt a car was no longer useful.

D. He wanted to get a big sum of money.

25. What did the author probably mean by “I did a U-turn” in paragraph 4?

A. I bought a new car.

B. I made a tough decision.

C. I broke the lockdown rules.

D. I chose another path to life.

26. What’s the author’s attitude toward driving a car in the last paragraph?

A. doubtful B. concerned

C. positive D. uncertain

27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. A greener choice in life

B. Back behind the wheel

C. How to survive the lockdown

D. The disadvantages of public transport

C

Most people have no idea what to do with their old drugs. Unused or expired(到期的) medicines lying around at home can get into the wrong hands, leading to accidental poisoning or drug overdose. When drugs are flushed or sent to landfill(垃圾场), the medicines can pollute our groundwater, rivers, and streams, threatening human and sea life.

In an effort to find a solution for drugs kept in medicine boxes or waterways, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration launched its first National Take-Back Day in September 2010. In the drug take-back program, the returned drugs are sent to medical waste incinerators(焚烧炉). However, the process of transporting and burning such waste can release greenhouse gas emissions that could be potentially greater than those generated if the drugs were poured into landfills.

“But take-back programs are preferred as they reduce the risk of drug misuse and the incineration effectively eliminates the entrance of these medicines into our nation’s waters,” says Tim Carroll, a spokesperson for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Perhaps surprisingly, not all unused medicines need to be thrown away. Every year five billion dollars’ worth of unexpired medicines end up being deserted in the U.S. “We’re wasting a lot of medicines which are already paid for,” says Anandi Law, a patient engagement specialist. “Millions of U.S. adults skip or delay getting their prescriptions(处方) filled due to high costs. We could give them to somebody else who needs it.”

Now, at least 40 states have passed legislation establishing drug donation(捐赠) programs that allow drug manufacturers, medical and long-term care facilities, and sometimes individuals to donate their unused drugs. For example, since its start in 2007, Iowa’s program, SafeNetRx, has served more than 117,000 patients and redistributed nearly 54-million-dollar worth of medicines and supplies. Georgia’s program was formally launched in 2018, and it has already filled prescriptions worth over 50 million dollars.

“All of these efforts are still relatively new,” Carroll says. “We still have a long way to go until households change their habits.”

28. What disadvantage of the drug take-back program is mentioned in paragraph 2?

A. It costs large amounts of money.

B. It increases the greenhouse effect.

C. It can produce poisonous chemicals.

D. It wastes lots of energy to deal with old drugs.

29. What is Tim Carroll’s attitude towards the take-back program?

A. Supportive. B. Indifferent. C. Cautious. D. Negative.

30. What is Anandi Law’s suggestion about unused and unexpired medicines?

A. Sending them to landfills.

B. Selling them at a low price.

C. Donating them to someone in need.

D. Developing technologies to recycle them.

31. What do the numbers in paragraph 5 mainly indicate?

A. The challenging task of SafeNetRx.

B. The expense of recycling unused drugs.

C. The significance of health care facilities.

D. The achievements of drug donation programs.

D

You have probably heard of the Mozart effect. It's the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed by Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search reveals plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age is, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart's music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed.

The phrase "the Mozart effect" was made up in 1991, but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that sparked real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain. It is one of those ideas that sound reasonable. Mozart was undoubtedly a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, we'll become more intelligent.

The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Governor of the state of Georgia in the US, even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music. It was not just babies and children who were exposed to Mozart's music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them produce better milk.

I'll leave the debate on the impact on milk yield (产量) to farmers, but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent? More research was carried out but an analysis of sixteen different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short-lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent.

32. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

A. Mozart composed many musical pieces for children.

B. There is little scientific evidence to support the Mozart effect.

C. There are few products on the Internet about Mozart's music.

D. Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligent.

33. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests that ________.

A. people were strongly against the idea

B. Mozart played an important part in people's life

C. the idea was accepted by many people

D. the US government helped promote the idea

34. What is the author's attitude towards the Mozart effect?

A. Favorable. B. Objective. C. Doubtful. D. Positive.

35. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. What Music Is Beneficial?

B. Listening to Mozart, Necessary?

C. What Is the Mozart Effect?

D. To Be or Not to Be？
