A
I had always wanted t see England, Sctland and Wales. S when my brther suggested that we take a week-lng vacatin tgether smewhere, I immediately did an Internet search. It was at that time when I fund Expat Explre. It was a travel agency that culd ffer just what I wanted at an acceptable price. In fact, I was afraid that it was t gd t be true! S I went back t Ggle t lk fr evaluatins(评价) f Expat Explre. And I culd nly find psitive things.
My secnd trip with Expat Explre was my first sl trip. I met several peple travelling alne n my first trip and after talking with them, I decided t give it a try. When I landed in Lndn by myself fr the first time, I wndered why I had thught this was a gd idea. My fears didn’t g away until the next mrning I met up with the tur grup.
I have lived my entire life in the U.S., s it is s amazing t visit a place like the Clsseum (角斗场) in Rme that was built ver 1,500 years befre America was discvered! Many buildings I have always cnsidered histrical in the U.S. are very mdern in cmparisn t thse in Eurpe. The mre f the wrld I see, the mre I want t discver the rest f it.
There are my tips fr travelling t a place that yu never have been t. Yu’d better plan yur vacatin thrugh a cmbinatin f suggestins frm travel agencies and relevant infrmatin frm the Internet. And there are still many things yu culdn’t expect befre the trip. I still remember the day when I first visited Lndn, I culdn’t find my way t the htel I bked befre. I felt really anxius at first, but later I tried t keep calm and ask the lcals hw I culd g t the htel. They were friendly t give me several ways t chse. Yu can als dwnlad apps such as iTranslate and Ggle Maps n yur phne, s that yu culd understand peple wh nly speak their native language.

There is mre f a cnnectin between fd and culture than yu may think. On an individual level, we grw up eating the fd f ur culture. It becmes a part f wh we are. Many assciate fd frm ur childhd with warm feelings and gd memries and it ties us t ur families, hlding a special and persnal value fr us. Fd frm ur family ften becmes the cmfrt fd we seek as adults in times f frustratin and stress.
On a large scale, traditinal fd is an imprtant part f culture. It als perates as an expressin f culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they g, and it is a symbl f pride fr their culture and means f cping with hmesickness.
Many immigrants pen their wn restaurants and serve traditinal dishes. Hwever, the fd des nt remain exactly the same. Sme materials needed t make traditinal dishes may nt be readily available, s the taste and flavr can be different frm what they wuld prepare in their hme cuntries. Additinally, immigrants d nt nly sell dishes t peple frm the same cuntries as them, but t peple frm different cuntries. Therefre, they have t make small changes t the riginal dishes t cater t a wider range f custmers. Thse changes can create new flavrs that still keep the cultural significance f the dishes.
We shuld embrace ur heritage (传统) thrugh ur culture’s fd but als becme mre infrmed abut ther cultures by trying their fd. It is imprtant t remember that each dish has a special place in the culture t which it belngs, and is special t thse wh prepare it. Fd is a windw int culture, and it shuld be treated as such.
4. What des the underlined wrd “it” in Paragraph 2 refer t?
A. The specific traditinal fd.B. The natinal culture.
C. A traditinal expressin f fd.D. The ld-fashined taste.
5. Why d sme immigrants have t change the riginal dishes in their restaurants?
A. T attach cultural imprtance t their dishes.
B. T annunce the beginning f their life n freign sil.
C. T make the dishes ppular amng custmers.
D. T present their wn fd culture in a new way.
6. What’s the authr’s attitude twards different fd cultures?
A. Negative.B. Balanced.C. Unfair.D. Unchangeable.

Death is natural, but d yu have any idea f the prcess f dying? Mdern scientists divide the prcess f dying int tw phases — clinical r temprary death and bilgical death. Clinical death ccurs when the vital rgans, such as the heart r lungs, have ceased t functin, but have nt suffered permanent damage. The rganism can still be revived (复活). Bilgical death ccurs when changes in the rganism lead t the “breaking up” f vital cells and tissues. Death is then unchangeable and final.
Scientists have been seeking a way t prlng the perid f clinical death s that the rganism can remain alive befre bilgical death ccurs. The best methd develped s far invlves cling f the rganism, cmbined with narctic sleep. By slwing dwn the bdy’s metablism (新陈代谢), cling delays the prcesses leading t bilgical death.
T illustrate hw this wrks, scientists perfrmed an experiment n a six-year-ld female mnkey called Keta. The scientist put Keta t sleep with a narctic. Then they surrunded her bdy with ice-bags and began checking her bdy temperature. When it had drpped t 28 degrees the scientists began draining bld frm an artery. The mnkey’s bld pressure decreased and an hur later bth the heart and breathing stpped: clinical death set in. Fr twenty minutes Keta remained in this state. Her temperature drpped t 22 degrees. At this pint the scientists pumped bld int an artery in the directin f the heart and started artificial breathing. After tw minutes Keta’s heart became active nce mre. After fifteen minutes, spntaneus (自发的) breathing began, and after fur hurs Keta pened her eyes and lifted her head. After six hurs, when the scientists tried t give her a penicillin injectin, Keta seized the syringe and ran with it arund the rm. Her behavir differed little frm that f a healthy animal.
7. Fr a persn wh suffers frm the clinical death, _________.
A. his mst imprtant rgans are damaged.
B. he still has the pssibility f getting back t life.
C. he cannt avid final death.
D. he is still very much alive
8. Scientists try t make the time f clinical death lnger in rder t __________.
A. slw dwn the bdy’s metablism
B. bring vital cells and tissues back t active life
C. cl the rganism
D. delay the cming f bilgical death
9. Hw did the scientists put Keta int clinical death?
A. By putting her t sleep lwering her temperature and draining her bld.
B. By surrunding her bdy with ice-bags and draining her bld.
C. By lwing her bld pressure and stpping her heart frm beating.
D. By draining her bld, lwering her bld pressure and stpping her breathing.
10. All f the fllwing indicate that the mnkey has almst restred t her riginal physical state except the fact that__________.

B. she regained her nrmal breath
