2、 time poor travelers.London and ParisIt takes you about two hours to travel from London to Paris by Eurostar,a high-speed railway service.The two capital cities have been competing in fashion,art and nightlife for decades but each secretly looks up to the other.No one can doubt the grand and impress
3、ive beauty of Paris Louvre Museum,but if you want to save money,you cannot skip the British Museum free to visit.Compared with London,Paris has more outdoor attractions,such as the beautiful green walkway La Promenade Plantee.In Paris,youll see diners linger(逗留)over red wine.While in London,you can
4、try some afternoon tea,eat fish and chips or salted cake.Vienna and BratislavaAustrian capital Vienna and Slovakia city Bratislava are an hour apart by train.But since they are linked by the Danube River,the best way to travel is by ship.A tour of the two cities is the perfect way to experience ever
5、ything from 17th centurys Habsburg dynast splendor to sci-fi restaurants.Vienna is famous for Mozart and imperial palaces.You can appreciate the perfect blending(融合)of architecture and nature in the grand Scholoss Schonbrunn Palace,and reward yourself with a cup of Vienna coffee,which has made its w

7、 each other.DThey dont like each other.2What are the advantages of Paris mentioned in the article?a.Louvre Museum b.Free access to museumsc.More outdoor attractions d.Better wines and perfumesAacBcdCacdDbcd3Lonely Planet recommends these two pairs of cities because _.Athey are not expensive to visit
8、Bthey are best known to the worldCthey are always enemies between each otherDthey are close but different in many aspects“The first domestic geese may have lived about 7,000 years ago in what is now China.That may make them the earliest bird to be domesticated,”says Masaki Eda at the Hokkaido Univer
9、sity Museum in Sapporo,Japan.Eda is part of a team that has unearthed an archaeological(考古的)site in Eastern China called Tianluoshan,which was a Stone Age village between about 7,000 and 5,500 years ago.“Its resident lived basically by killing wild animals and looking for plants that can be eaten,”s
10、ays Eda,“but they also grew rice.”The team has now identified 232 goose bones at Tianluoshan,four of which belonged to immature geese that were less than 16 weeks old,with the youngest probably less than 8 weeks old.This implies they must have hatched at Tianluoshan,because they were too young to ha
11、ve flown in from elsewhere.Some of the adult geese also seem to have been locally bred(饲养),based on the chemical make-up of their bones,which reflects the water they drank.These locally bred birds were all almost the same size,indicating captive breeding(圈养).Finally,the team carbon-dated the bones a
12、nd found that the locally bred geese lived about 7,000 years ago.“The main thing that stood out for me is the fact they actually did radiocarbon dating on the bird bones,”says Julia Best at Cardiff University in the UK.This makes the dating much more reliable than if the team had simply dated the su
13、rrounding materials.”If geese were domesticated 7,000 years ago,that would make them the first bird to be domesticated,”says Eda.The other candidate is the chicken,but there has been an argument over when and where this first appeared,A study published in 2014 reported that chickens were domesticate
14、d in Northern China as early as 10,000 years ago,based on DNA from bones.However,the bones werent directly dated and“a lot of the things they claimed were chickens were pheasants(野鸡)”,says Best.“Domestic chickens only appeared around 5,500 years ago.With the firm evidence we currently have,I think i
15、t is true,”she says,but adds that the domestication of chickens is understudied,so the story could well change as more evidence emerges.4What can we say about Tianluoshan?AIt appeared at least 10,000 years ago.BIt was a Stone Age village in Northern China.CIts residents grew rice and kept geese as p
16、ets.DIts residents were essentially hunter-gatherers.5What is stressed in the second paragraph?AThe main characteristics of geeseBThe proof of goose domesticationCThe challenges for immature geeseDThe chemical make-up of goose bones6What does Julia Best currently tend to believe?AGeese were domestic
17、ated before chickens.BRadiocarbon dating on goose bones was unreliable.CDomestic chickens were first spotted in Eastern China.DThe analysis of DNA from chicken bones was dependable.7What is the main purpose of this text?ATo advertise.BTo persuade.CTo report.DTo instruct.Sometimes one plus one does e

22、ic established a private school called Uchenna.At the school,kids with excellent basketball skills study all subjects,train at their sport and work part-time helping out with the BallMatics after-school programs.For the schools first graduates,the value of BallMatics is clear:all of the 16 boys land
