No matter what you’re looking for, Orlando has a perfect place for every type of traveler. Here’s my list of the best places to stay in town.
The Alfond Inn
The Alfond Inn is a modern, 112-room hotel in the super-walkable heart of Winter Park. It’s a quiet, art-filled space that I think couldn’t be more suitable for honeymooners.
The hotel also has a heated outdoor pool and a great restaurant, Hamilton’s Kitchen, with a focus on local food.
The Ritz-Carlton
For luxury (奢华) and an escape from the noisy city, treat yourself to a stay at The Ritz-Carlton. Located on a peaceful 500-acre land with three indoor pools, a championship-level golf course, a 40,000-square-foot spa, a tennis club, and award-winning dining choices, I think this hotel has a true getaway experience.
The Park Plaza Hotel
Built in 1922, this 28-room hotel is on the walkable shop-and-restaurant-lined Park Avenue in Winter Park, just north of Orlando. Having an elegant lobby with European-inspired decorations and nice rooms with balconies (阳台), the Park Plaza Hotel is a popular honeymoon spot and a favorite for writers and other creative professionals like myself seeking peaceful working vacations.
The Wellborn
Near the Thornton Park neighborhood, The Wellborn, a 20-room hotel, is in Orlando’s oldest house which was built in 1883. Just a short walk from downtown’s Lake Eola, The Wellborn is near many local bars and restaurants, and it has a romantic environment with gardens and tree-lined brick streets.
1. Where is Hamilton’s Kitchen?
A. At The Wellborn.
B. At The Ritz-Carlton.
C. At the Alfond Inn.
D. At the Park Plaza Hotel.
2. What can people do at The Ritz-Carlton?
A. Swim outdoors.
B. Play ball games.
C. Enjoy bar drinks.
D. Do some shopping.
3. What do the Park Plaza Hotel and The Wellborn have in common?
A. Restaurants are within reach.
B. They were built in 19th century.
C. Romantic gardens can be visited.
D. They have a peaceful environment.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A

When I win at my favourite games, my opponents tend to say: ‘OH, you’re so competitive!’ But when I lose, they smile good-naturedly and say: ‘Bad luck! Good game!’
This suggests that accurate sporting expressions should go something like this:
I am sporty
You are competitive.
They can’t bear to lose.
Or:
I gave it a go.
You did your best.
He tried desperately hard.
I’m not saying I don’t have a competitive personality. We all do. On walks, I like to be out in front. In traffic jams, I find myself focusing on cars in other lanes, and fret if they edge ahead of me. I tense up while waiting for trains, determined to be first aboard. The other day, I was one of the first to board a train, grabbing a perfect spot in first class. Yes, I had won! Just halfway, I went to get a free drink for a first-class seat from the buffet. But I had left my ticket on my table. I worked out that, if I moved very swiftly, I could nip (快走) through two carriages, and nip back without anyone taking my place at the front of the queue.
So I rushed back, picking up my ticket, and turned back. I was at the beginning of the second carriage, when, to my horror, I noticed, another figure, roughly my size, shooting towards the buffet from the other direction.
Desperate to arrive before he did, I started walking faster. But at exactly the same moment, he started walking faster, too. Trying to retain my dignity, I broke into a running. Whatever happened, I was determined to win! But, annoyingly, at the same time as I sped up, so did he. The race was on.
Finally, in my rush, I knocked into a suitcase and stumbled slightly. Still with my eyes on my challenger, I noticed that-strange but true-exactly the same thing had happened to him.
It was only as we both lifted ourselves up in exactly the same way that I realised that, throughout the race, I had been looking at a reflection of myself in the sliding door!
My competitor for first place in the buffet queue was...me.
4. Which sporting expression can replace “Bad luck! Good game!” in paragraph 1?
A. I gave it a go. B. You did your best.
C. You are competitive. D. He tried desperately hard.
5. What does the underlined word “fret” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Get anxious. B. Become relaxed. C. Feel disappointed. D. Remain excited.

A. He never fails to beat anyone in his life.
B. He has a gift for games and competitions.
C. He is sporty but often aggressive to others.
D. He is highly competitive and desperate to win.
7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?

B. Bad loser? No, but I can be a first-class fool

D. More haste? It will only result in less speed

Good game!’(当我在最喜欢的比赛中获胜时,我的对手往往会说:‘哦,你太好胜了!’但当我输了的时候,他们和蔼地微笑着说:‘运气不好!玩得好!”)”可知,对手的意思是“你玩的不错,但是运气较差,所以输了”。“Good game!”可以被“You did your best.(你尽力了)”替换。故选 B 。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“On walks, I like to be out in front.(散步时,我喜欢走在前面)”以及“I tense up while waiting for trains, determined to be first aboard.(等火车时我紧张起来,决心第一个上车)”可推知,作者一直很好胜,在看到其他车往前走时,自己会比较着急。由此推知,划线词fret和A 选项Get anxious(变得焦虑)意思相近。故选A项。

(我不是说我没有好胜的性格。我们都有。散步时,我喜欢走在前面。在交通堵塞的时候,我发现自己会把注意力集中在其他车道的汽车上,如果它们挤到我前面,我就会烦恼。等火车时我紧张起来,决心第一个上车)”以及第五段“Whatever happened, I was determined to win! But, annoyingly, at the same time as I sped up, so did he. The race was on.(无论发生什么,我都决心要赢!但是,烦人的是,在我加快速度的同时,他也加快了速度。比赛开始了)”可推知,作者好胜心很强,急于求胜。故选D项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。从全文概括以及最后一段“My competitor for first place in the buffet queue was…me.(我在自助餐队伍中争夺第一名的对手是……我)”可知,本文是讲述一次自己为了获得免费饮料而误以为车厢反射的自己的影子是竞争对手的一次荒诞的经历。由此可知,B项“Bad loser? No, but I can be a first-class fool(输不起的人吗?不,但我可以做一个一流的傻瓜)”是本文最好的标题。故选B。
C
Experts analyzed how language can impact children’s lives and the role it plays in everyday life. They also determined which languages tend to lead to the best career opportunities as an adult. “We believe that language learning is hugely beneficial for children’s development and it’s a real investment for the future,” said Antonella Sorace, professor of developmental Inguistics and director of offinguatlsm matters at Edinburgh University. The study involved a survey of 2,001 parents with children under the age of 18, along with another survey of more than 500 business leaders.
So which languages took the top spot? Results indicated that children should be learning French, German, and/or Mandarin if they want to be successful within the next ten years. Proficiency in a second language opens the door to new markets for businesses and allows them to create new relationships with prospective partners.Aside from being able to speak another language, the academic and interpersonal skills that can be gained from learning a new language are important as well. “Children who are exposed different languages become more aware of different cultures,other people,and other points of view. They also tend to be better than monolinguals at multitasking and are often more advanced readers, said Sorace.
A vast majority of parents surveyed in this study (85 percent) believe it, is important for their children to learn a second language, and about one in four believe it will enhance their child’s career opportunities and boost employability.The future employment market are in need of space tour guide, robot coach, frontline e-commerce worker, nurse practitioner etc. No matter what a child choose to be, multilinguals and cross-culture talents will probably stand a good chance to take the lead. However, 45 percent of parents surveyed admit that their child or children cannot speak a second language.
If you want your child to stand out from the crowd, brush up on the habits of parents of successful people — give children chores, set high but realistic expectations, get yourself educated, make time for bonding, accept and recognize their feelings — and, of course, make sure they learn one of the three success languages!
8. What is Antonella Sorace’s attitude towards different languages learning? ________
A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Positive. D. Enthusiastic.
9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tells us concerning the advantages of learning different languages? ________
A. It can improve children’s academic and social skills.
B. It makes children multilinguals and advanced readers.
C. It makes it possible for them to earn a fortune in future.
D. It benefits children in development and cultural exposure.
10. Which job will be the most favourable in the future, according to the passage? ________
A. Delivery man. B. News reporter.
C. Local experience guide. D. Self-driving car designer.
11. What’s the purpose of the passage? ________
A. To teach the ways of learning foreign languages.
B. To share the secret of becoming successful parents.
C. To show the importance of learning foreign languages.
D. To introduce the methods of raising successful children.

Dumbphones have very limited functions compared to an iPhone. You can only make and receive calls and messages. And, if you are lucky-listen to radio and take very basic photos, but absolutely not connect to the internet or apps.
Dumbphones are enjoying a comeback. Google searches for them increased by 89% between 2018 and 2021. Meanwhile, a study said that one in 10 mobile phone users in the UK had a dumbphone. Kaiwei Tang, CEO of Light Phone, a maker of dumbphones said that, surprisingly, the company’s main customers are aged between 25 and 35. He says he expected buyers to be much older.
Sandra Wachter, a researcher at Oxford University, says that it’s easy to see why some of us are looking for simpler mobile phones. One can reasonably say that nowadays a smart phone’s ability to connect calls and send messages is almost a side function. Your smart phone is your entertainment centre, your newspaper, your map, your diary, and your wallet. They always want to catch your attention with notices and latest news.
“If aliens came to earth they’d think that mobile phones are the creatures controlling human beings,” Mr. Tang says. “It’s not going to stop. Instead, it’s getting worse. Consumers are realizing that something is wrong, and we want to offer a choice.”
Last year, Przemek Olejniczak, changed his smartphone for a dumphone at first for its longer-lasting battery. However, he soon realized there were other benefits. “Before I would always be checking, going through the news, or other facts I didn’t need to know,“ he says. ”Now I have more time for my family and myself. And I’m not addicted to liking, sharing, or describing my life to other people. I have more privacy.“
Yet back in London, Robin West says that many people are confused by her choice of mobile. “Everyone thinks it’s just a short-term thing. They’re always asking me: ‘So when are you getting a smartphone? Are you getting one this week?’ ”
12. What surprises Kaiwei Tang about dumbphones?
A. Few people show interest in them.
B. They are coming into fashion again.
C. Their buyers are mainly young people.
D. Dumbphones are in a wider use than smartphones.
13. What does Sandra Wachter think of people’s turning to dumbphones?
A. Understandable. B. Unusual. C. Thoughtless. D. Meaningful.
14. What does the author mention Robin West in the last paragraph?
A. To give suggestions on mobile choice.
B. To show public support for dumbphones.
C. To make a prediction about the future of dumbphones.
D. To introduce a different opinion on using dumbphones.
15. Which of the following might be a suitable title for the text?
A. Dumbphones are Here to Stay
B. A Generation Controlled by Smartphones
C. Smartphones: Where are they leading us?
D. Another Choice? The Return of Dumbphones
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种现象,越来越多的人开始舍弃智能手机,而选择只拥有基本功能的旧式手机。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Kaiwei Tang, CEO of Light Phone, a maker of dumbphones said that, surprisingly, the company’s main customers are aged between 25 and 35. He says he expected buyers to be much older.(旧式手机制造商Light Phone的首席执行官唐凯伟表示,令人惊讶的是,该公司的主要客户年龄在25岁至35岁之间。他说,他预计买家的年龄会大得多。)”可知,他对于旧式手机使用者如此年轻感到惊讶。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Sandra Wachter, a researcher at Oxford University, says that it’s easy to see why some of us are looking for simpler mobile phones. One can reasonably say that nowadays a smart phone’s ability to connect calls and send messages is almost a side function.(牛津大学的研究人员Sandra Wachter说,很容易理解为什么我们中的一些人在寻找更简单的手机。人们可以合理地说,如今智能手机的接电话和发送信息的能力几乎是一个附带功能。)”可推断,他对于人们重新选择旧式手机感到可以理解。选项A“Understandable. (可理解的)”;选项B“Unusual. (不同往常的)”;选项C“Thoughtless. (轻率的)”;选项D“Meaningful. (有意义的)”。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Yet back in London, Robin West says that many people are confused by her choice of mobile. “Everyone thinks it’s just a short-term thing. They’re always asking me: ‘So when are you getting a smartphone? Are you getting one this week?’ ”(但在伦敦, Robin West表示,许多人对她选择手机感到困惑:“每个人都认为这只是短期的事情。他们总是问我:‘你什么时候买智能手机?你这周会收到吗?’”)”可知,还是有很多人对于重新使用旧式手机感到困惑。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Dumbphones are enjoying a comeback. Google searches for them increased by 89% between 2018 and 2021. Meanwhile, a study said that one in 10 mobile phone users in the UK had a dumbphone.(旧式手机正在卷土重来。从2018年到2021年,谷歌上对它们的搜索量增加了89%。与此同时,一项研究表明,英国十分之一的手机用户使用的是旧式手机。)”及全文可知,文章主要讲述的是人们开始重新选择使用旧式手机。所以“Another Choice? The Return of Dumbphones(另一个选择吗? 旧式手机的回归)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明。主要介绍的是尽管竹子没有被广泛使用在建筑中,但竹子作为建筑材料方面有很多的优点。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:竹子被称为“穷人的材料”,即使在中国,它也不被广泛接受为现代建筑材料。分析句子结构可知,此处为副词作状语修饰动词accepted,wide的副词为widely意为“广泛地”符合句意。故填widely。
【37题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:但竹子建造的房子几乎是最轻的,在抗震方面比“现代”材料要好得多。分析句子结构可知,此处为定语从句的谓语动词,根据主句中的谓语动词makes以及全文的语境,此处客观描述竹子作为建筑材料的特征,所以使用一般现在时,be动词无被动,主语which指代的先行词bamboo为名词单数。故填is。
【38题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:与在地震中几秒钟就可能被摧毁的“豆腐渣”建筑不同,竹子建筑更安全。分析句子结构可知,此空位于情态动词之后应为动词原形,destroy与句子主语that指代的先行词buildings之间为被动关系。故填be destroyed。
【39题详解】
考查形容词。句意:与在地震中几秒钟就可能被摧毁的“豆腐渣”建筑不同,竹子建筑更安全。分析句子结构可知,此处为形容词定语修饰名词building空前有副词much修饰,所以使用形容词比较级。故填safer。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:INBAR指出,如果不采取适当行动,没有安全和健康住所的人数将随着人口增长而增加。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定短语the number of意为“……的数量”符合句意。故填the。”
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:研究表明,竹子的强度非常好,和木头一样结实。分析句子结构可知,此处为名词作宾语,strong的名词为strength意为“强度”为不可数名词。故填strength。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意:此外,由于竹子的轻质和良好的弹性,竹制建筑在抵抗地震方面非常出色。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定短语because of连后面的名词短语构成句子的原因状语。故填of。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:中国古人喜欢住在竹屋里。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作定语,根据be made of意为“由……制成”可知,make与所修饰词houses之间为被动关系,所以使用过去分词形式。故填made。
【44题详解】
考查代词。句意:在云南省,一些当地人仍然住在竹屋里,这样可以挡风遮雨。分析句子结构可知,此处为protect的宾语,所以使用代词的宾格形式。故填them。
【45题详解】
考查定语从家。句意:在竹子资源丰富的浙江省,当地官员一直鼓励建筑师使用竹子设计建筑。分析句子结构可知,此处为连词引导的非限制性定语从句,从句中不缺主语和宾语,所以使用关系副词,先行词Zhejiang Province表地点。故填where。
