The Best Hiking near New York City

If you want to go hiking near New York City, you’re in luck. These trails (小径) can meet your needs.

Yellow Trail at Mount Beacon

Consider this 2.5-mile trail if you don’t have enough time. You can go on a quick but difficult hike there that sends you straight up the Mount Beacon. You can take in beautiful views similar to its more popular neighbors there. You can even watch the sunset. To get there, take Metro-North to Beacon and then take a 5-minute walk to the beginning of the trail.

Stairway to Heaven Trail

The trail lies about 50 miles outside the city, but it allows you to get everything you ever wanted in a hike. You’ll get good exercise if you choose the 7.3-mile “Stairway to Heaven”. Take NJ Transit bus route 196 or 197 to Warwick, New York, and it’s just a 10-minute taxi ride to the beginning of the trail.

Camp Smith Trail

This 3.5-mile hike is great for a day trip by yourself. With fairly easy landform (地形), even your four-legged friend can join you on the trail. Take the Metro-North Hudson line to Peekskill Station for free buses or trains to the Bear Mountain Inn. And you can hike up to see unbelievable Hudson Valley view.

Ice Caves and Verkeerderkill Falls Trail

Along the 7-mile trail, you will get through the passages of the Ice Caves and walk past Verkeerderkill Falls. The trail is the highest waterfall trail in the Shawangunks. Take the Short Line bus from New York to nearby Ellenville and then take a 14-minute taxi ride to Sam’s Point Preserve.

    The time to form a new habit depends on the person, the habit itself, the environment, and the motivation. Generally speaking, 60 days is good enough for getting a new habit formed, but some habits could take twice as long. Some habits will never be formed no matter how much time passes. Even a habit that takes months or years to form can still be broken eventually.

    Becoming an early riser was really challenging. I struggled with this habit for years to manage to form it. I do break this habit now and then, usually by choice to experience something different for a while. In the past 90 days, I have stayed in bed past 5 am perhaps only two or three times. It takes me less than a week to be back with it. Remembering the benefits surely helps.

    In my 20s I was too impatient with many habits. If I couldn’t get something working in a few weeks, I’d often drop it and try something else. Now that I’m in my late 40s, I have learned to think in a more practical way. I know that even if it takes many months or years to form a new habit, I am sure the habit could bring advantages for many years. It doesn’t take me too long to think of carrying out the new habit, I just get it started. When you think about a habit that you have stuck to for many years, who cares if it took a few weeks or six months to form it?

    Don’t worry so much about how long it takes to form a habit. Instead, consider which habits could improve the quality of your life so that they are worthy of six months to get them formed. When a habit forms at last, it feels uncomfortable not to do it, and your day doesn’t feel complete without it.

4、What can we infer from the first paragraph?

A.We have to keep the habits once formed.

B.Most habits can be formed quickly.

C.We need sixty days to form a new habit.

D.The time to form habits varies greatly.

5、Why does the writer break the habit of getting up early sometimes?

A.He likes sleeping in bed for a while. B.He wants to try something different.

C.He prepares breakfast for the family. D.He is afraid to wake up his family.

6、What does the writer think more about the habit when he is in his forties?

A.The development of the habit. B.The expense of the habit.

C.The benefits of the habit. D.The limitation of the habit.

7、In which part of a magazine is this text most probably taken from?

A.Education. B.Technology. C.Tourism. D.Literature.

    More than a third of the world’s population lives in dry lands, areas that experience significant water shortages. Engineers and scientists at the University of Texas at Austin have developed a unique solution to help people in these areas access clean drinking water.

    They developed a low-cost gel film (凝胶膜) that can pull water from the air in even the driest climate. Combining two simple ingredients, cellulose and konjac gum, the gel is inexpensive to produce. Just one kilogram of gel can absorb up to six liters of water in a dry climate. For those living in a climate with relative humidity (潮湿), one kilogram of gel can collect up to 13 liters of water a day. As the gel is so inexpensive and easy to make, it may offer a way of providing drinking water to countries with water shortages.

    Previously, researchers have harvested fresh water from fog and dew, but that only serves areas with high humidity. Other attempts at pulling water from desert air are typically energy-intensive and do not produce much. In fact, this gel is a vast improvement from previous water harvesting technologies. The maximum water harvested has been 5.87 liters in places with relative humidity. This new gel doubles this amount, uses no energy and is simple to operate and it can be moulded into a shape or size that best suits the user.

    “This new work is about practical solutions that people can use to get water in the hottest, driest places on Earth,” said Guihua Yu, professor at the Cockrell School of Engineering. “This could allow millions of people without consistent access to drinking water to have simple, water generating devices at home that they can easily operate.”

    “This is not something you need an advanced degree to use,” the paper’s lead author, Youhong “Nancy” Guo said. “It’s straightforward enough that anyone can make it at home if they have the materials.” Scientists are planning on making a thicker gel that will increase the yield, making this technology a practicable solution to drought.

8、What do we know about the gel film from paragraph 2?

A.It can increase the humidity of the air.

B.It can harvest drinking water from the air.

C.It has been widely applied in desert areas.

D.It costs lots of money and energy to produce.

9、Why does the author mention previous water harvesting methods in paragraph 3?

A.To prove the advantages of the new gel.

B.To show the tough living conditions in dry regions.

C.To state the process of manufacturing the new gel.

D.To present the theory of water harvesting technologies.

10、What is Guihua Yu’s attitude towards the new water harvesting method?

A.Indifferent. B.Skeptical. C.Disapproving. D.Hopeful.

11、What will scientists plan to do next?

A.Develop a thicker gel.

B.Produce the gel on a large scale.

C.Raise money for further research.

D.Teach people to make the gel at home.

Free Wi-Fi has become incredibly important to us: many stores and shopping malls offer it, restaurants use it to attract customers, and for libraries and coffee shops it is a must-have service.

Even when people are traveling, they scan for free Wi-Fi, which, according to research released by London’s Amba Hotel on Dec 4, has become the most important standard for selecting a hotel.

According to the survey, as many as 67 percent of travelers questioned said that free Wi-Fi would make them more likely to choose accommodation, above other things such as the hotel’s location and friendly staff. When rating a hotel that they’d already stayed in, six in ten travelers believed that unlimited Wi-Fi was the most important factor in their rating.

“Today, people treat their smartphones, tablets and laptops like clothes when they are about to travel to some places. They will never forget to pack it into the suitcase,” said the Daily Mail. “We rely on free Wi-Fi heavily when traveling –– especially when it comes to checking social media, searching for travel tips, and accessing websites.”

However, despite the opportunities that free Wi-Fi gives us, “our over-reliance on technology has come at a price, with travelers feeling unable to escape social media”, said Lonely Planet, the world’s largest travel guide brand.

Anita Isalska, Lonely Planet editor and tech addict, was forced to unplug when she was stuck in an isolated (隔绝的) camp in Greenland recently. “Adjusting to this slower pace, it began to dawn on me: somewhere, somehow, social media had changed into a reflex (条件反射),” she wrote. “I had believed I was capturing moments, but in reality my busy thumbs were preventing me from enjoying travel’s most profound pleasures. How fully can you appreciate a huge glacier or meadow (草地) of wildflowers when your brain is subconsciously (潜意识地) selecting the right photo filter (滤镜), or the perfect six seconds to film?”

In September, the brand released 10 predictions for the future of global travel. One of them was that true escapes will be highly valued in future, so remote hotels will start to make their lack of Internet into a feature. Would you like to have an unplugged holiday?

12、What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article?

A. To argue against people’s over-reliance on Wi-Fi.

B. To predict what global travel will be like in the future.

C. To protest against travelers’ standard when selecting a hotel.

D. To stress the growing importance of free Wi-Fi in daily lives.

13、Why do travelers attach importance to free Wi-Fi when selecting a hotel?

A. They believe hotels with free Wi-Fi usually have better locations.

B. They think hotels with free Wi-Fi are likely to provide better service.

C. They depend on free Wi-Fi to check social media and access websites.

D. They hope to enjoy more profound pleasures while using free Wi-Fi.

14、What does the underlined word “unplug” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?

A. Check social media. B. Call off a travelling plan.

C. Appreciate beautiful scenery. D. Disconnect from digital devices.

15、What is the lesson Anita Isalska learned from the isolated camp she attended in Greenland recently?

A. Travelers should adapt to a slower pace when checking social media.

B. Addiction to social media has negatively affected the quality of travel.

C. Travelers should take more photos and videos during their journeys.

D. Beautiful scenery could be appreciated better if films are shot cautiously.

Friendship needs care and attention to keep it in good health. Here are five ways to sustain (保持) long-distance friendships.

Last March, Jack drove to visit his mother who lived in the countryside. When he set off for home, Jack’s mother looked at the dark sky and noticed the sign of a coming storm. Worried about her son’s safety, she told him to drive as carefully as possible on his way home and he promised to give her a call upon his arrival.

With his mother’s words in mind, Jack approached the main road carefully. Soon, it started to rain heavily. Eager to get home, Jack began to drive faster. Two hours later, he came to a bumpy mountain road that had been flooded by a creek (小溪). Jack, driving a four-wheel drive truck, figured that he would be OK. At that moment, he didn’t realize that such a thought would be a big mistake.

It was halfway across the creek that an unfortunate incident took place: The rushing waters grabbed hold of his vehicle, pushing it off the road and sending it down a rocky creek bed. The truck finally stopped some 80 feet away. Jack’s problems only grew from there as the water had somehow positioned the truck into the creek bank at a 45-degree angle, making it difficult for him to open the driver’s side door. Injured and trapped inside with the muddy water rising quickly, Jack was certain he was going to die. Shaking with fear, he was at a loss about what to do.

On the road right behind Jack were a delivery worker named Hugh and his nephew Mike, who were on the way to deliver furniture to customers in the countryside. They witnessed the horrible incident, and when Jack’s truck came to rest in the middle of the overflowing creek, Hugh quickly began to take action. First, he grabbed a rope from the back of his vehicle and used it to ensure he could safely approach the truck.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；
