The cost of living in countries like the U.S, Britain, Australia or France has skyrocketed in recent years. However, if you’re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries boasting an extremely cheap and low cost of living. Check out the following countries when planning your next move. Ecuador Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result has become a popular American getaway. They even use the U. S. Dollar for their currency. In this country, it’s cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on a budget in the U. S. You can even buy a building for around $50,000 and hire someone to look after it while you’re away. Mexico Although the country is known for its poverty ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every facility you might need. You can live off a mere $700 to $800 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, facilities, food, and any sightseeing. Argentina Argentina has been a popular tourist destination for many years. It has great restaurants, a rich history, and many places to explore. Not to mention, it’s not very expensive to live here. A decent sized home can cost around $139,000, which is relatively cheap in relation to homes in the United States. Vietnam Vietnam has also become a popular tourist destination in recent years.

Kielder Forest in Northumberland, England, is home to birds of gray and red squirrels. Around 90 years ago, it was also home to the pine marten(松貂). The 0.5 meters animal was driven to dying out in England by 1926 because gamekeepers wanted to secure the safety of their game birds, according to The Guardian. However, the martens thrived in Scotland, and the animals appear to be crossing back into England. A pine marten was spotted in Kielder Forest by John Hartshorne, a volunteer who monitors the red squirrel population in the forest, part of an effort to stop gray squirrels from further invading(入侵) the red squirrels’ territory. The pine marten is one of the animals receiving a helping hand from Back from the Brink, one of the conservation groups working together to help save 20 species from dying out in England. Their efforts aim at helping the pine marten and other at-risk species. Red squirrels are threatened by invasive gray squirrels, which out-compete the native squirrels for food and pass on a deadly virus. Martens keep gray squirrel numbers in check, especially since the invasive animals aren’t used to having a predator like the pine marten around. A 2018 study found that the presence of pine martens can be enough to push the gray squirrel population out of an area. So the pine marten returning to Kielder is a win-win: The pine marten returns to part of its historic range and by doing so, helps red squirrels continue to survive. 【1】Why was the pine marten forced to leave Northumberland? A.To attract more hunters. B.To protect local animals. C.To keep game birds safe. D.To keep game birds from hunters. 【2】What does the underlined word “thrived” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Died out slowly. B.Evolved rapidly. C.Had difficulty adapting. D.Increased in population. 【3】What is John Hartshorne’s duty according to Paragraph 2? A.To help the pine marten to thrive. B.To free the red squirrels of danger. C.To monitor the population of birds. D.To stop gray squirrels from dying out. 【4】The last paragraph mainly talks about . A.the role of the pine marten B.the importance of a 2018 study C.the promising future of red squirrels D.the harmful effects of gray squirrels |

Being stuck behind crowds of slow walkers when you’re in a hurry is one of the most annoying things. But now, Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex, one of the UK’s largest shopping malls, has introduced its very own fast lane(通道) for shoppers in a hurry, aiming to help impatient shoppers avoid slow walkers and the anger that goes with them. The Lakeside Shopping Center in Essex has introduced a 720-foot “fast lane” reserved for fast walkers only, just in time for the Christmas rush. The center’s management team said: “the lane will help the shoppers who know where they want to go quickly and don’t want to get caught in behind unhurried shoppers at the busiest time of the year.” The fast lane was introduced after a MasterCard survey found that 80 percent of consumers found slow walkers their biggest annoyance while shopping. The research also found that the average walking speed slowed down by 21 percent during the Christmas shopping period, as most shoppers spent more time window shopping during this period. Gary Mortimer, an expert from the Queensland University of Technology, said he wasn’t surprised by the promotion about the launch of the fast lane, and thought the concept would appeal to shoppers all over the world. “Crowded parking lots and busy shopping centers tend to be two of the biggest complaints of shoppers over the festive season,” he said. “I think the fast lanes are a new approach. However, I suspect it will be a bit like fast lanes on the highway, so it might end up being more trouble than its worth.” The MasterCard survey also identified the four most common types of shoppers. They include “Skaters”－the 31 percent of shoppers who try and make their way through crowds politely, “Dodgers”－the 51 percent of customers who move down the paths to avoid slow walkers, “Bulldozers”－the 11 percent who push their way through crowds, and “Tutters”－the l5 percent who express their frustrations to slow walkers. 【1】The fast lane is intended for the shoppers who . A.can’t move quickly because of physical disabilities B.buy things on their shopping lists quickly C.take their time to do window shopping D.want to leave the mall quickly 【2】What is Gary Mortimer’s attitude to the fast lane? A.Supportive. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Objective. 【3】Who patiently moves behind a slow crowd? A.Skaters. B.Dodgers. C.Bulldozers. D.Tutters. 【4】What is the main idea of this passage? A.Shopping can be annoying sometimes. B.How to avoid “slow walkers” when shopping. C.The problems that shopping centers face during busy holidays. D.The shopping mall creates the fast lane to avoid “slow walkers”. |

Ladies, if you find yourselves wandering an unknown city with a man who is questioning your directional abilities, don’t doubt yourselves. A recent small study published in the journal Psychological Science found that the longstanding theory that women have a more difficult time reading maps wasn’t true. Historically, men have performed better than women in studies that tested their spatial(空间的)ability. But the leading study author Margaret Tarampi and a researcher from the University of California, Santa Barbara theorized that social influences had an effect on this outcome: The cultural belief that women are worse at reading maps could be seen as a stereotype(固有模式) threat, meaning women believe they’re bad at something, so they perform poorly as a result. The researchers also theorized that women performed better at skills that involve a social element. In other words, if reading a map means helping someone else, they might perform better. Tarampi and her team tested both theories on undergraduate students at UCSB across three separate experiments. And, indeed, the results showed that men scored better than women only when they were mentioned the stereotype of male superiority before the test. When the researchers did not mention it and gave a social context for reading the map, women’s scores improved across the board. Women also performed better when the test maps simply included human figures, rather than just random objects and landmarks. So ladies, next time you struggle to figure out whether you should make a left or right at the Louvre, take out your tourist map with a healthy dose of confidence. 【1】What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A.To warn women of one of their shortcomings. B.To introduce the topic of the passage. C.To encourage women to read maps. D.To state a social phenomenon. 【2】Women are thought to be worse at reading maps because of . A.a poor sense of direction B.a lack of experience C.a social stereotype D.threats from others 【3】Men performed better than women in the study when . A.they were asked to help someone else by reading a map B.they were informed of the stereotype before the test C.the test maps simply included human figures D.there were social elements in the map 【4】What can be concluded from the passage? A.Women can read maps as well as men. B.Women are better drivers than men. C.Women always have difficulty reading maps. D.Women are better at spatial ability. |

Some people seem to have a skill for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules of grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. 【1】 First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or teacher. 【2】They try to find the patterns and rules by themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes. 【3】Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language. They look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. 【4】They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things. They are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word. 【5】They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. A. Successful language learning is active learning. B. They will try their best to communicate with others. C. They discover their own way to learn the language. D. Here’s a study of the way children learn to speak. E. What makes language learning so much easier for them? F. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly. G. Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. |
