Look beyond Italy’s iconic cities to the dreamy destinations we believe deserve attention this year. Embrace

what the Italians call “dolce far niente” ―the sweetness of doing nothing.

Lake Como

It’s Italy’s third largest lake after Lake Garda and Lake Maggiore. It’s a perfect all-year round destination and

has been a popular retreat for leisure since Roman times. Activities revolve around the lake, from the fresh lake fish

and seafood served up at mealtimes to the numerous lake activities of boat rides and watersports.

Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast is made up of 13 towns and villages that hug the steep cliffs or are right by the beach. For

attractiveness, head to Positano for boutique shops and beach clubs. For history, visit the impressive cathedral in

the town of Amalfi. For romance, you’d better go to the heart-stirring Ravello, home to some gorgeous gardens.

Sicily

Sicily celebrates the Mediterranean climate, with pollution-free beaches and crystal-clear waters. Right on the

global trading route, Sicily has been colonised by invaders over many centuries, so it’s a delightful melting pot of

culture. Sicily’s flavours have been influenced by Arab, Greek, French, and Spanish cultures. Don’t miss out on the

homegrown olive oil and delicious locally-caught seafood.

Piedmont

The regional capital of Turin is distinctly elegant, with its baroque architecture and grand piazzas. Today the

city holds one of Italy’s oldest and most successful soccer clubs, Juventus. Plus, Piedmont is home to dazzling Lake

Maggiore, Italy’s second largest lake. Piedmont is a foodie’s delight. It’s the birthplace of Italian gianduja 一

authentic chocolate hazelnut paste.

My son’s seventh birthday is approaching, so conversation at my house has naturally turned to organizing his

party.

For his sixth birthday, we booked the local trampoline(蹦床) park. This worked out well. But the whole event

cost us hundreds of pounds. This year, I’m trying to convince him that the dinosaur-themed park down the road

offers just as much fun—and you don’t even need to wear special socks! This will be cheaper, because we aren’t

required to hire a space—we can simply buy tickets for his mates.

But I still keep pondering over one thing—party bags. Why should a bunch of seven-year-olds, who have

already been treated to a day out and a mountain of sugar, also be handed a bag full of pound-shop gifts for simply

bothering to show up?

Party bags are an environmental disaster. I reckon my son attends 20 parties per year, and at each party there

are 20 kids in attendance, which means 400 plastic bags in total. Within these 400 bags are perhaps 800 plastic toys,

almost all of which fall apart on the journey home and then get binned instantly. The waste is shocking, and I don’t

want to be part of it.

I know there are some party bag alternatives: one couple I know covered a table with Mr. Men books and got

the kids to choose one each. At another party

I saw the hosts fill a bucket with soft toys and crumpled

newspaper, and do a lucky dip (抽奖). Admirable efforts.

Even if that is a nice try, and even if the contents in the party bags don’t fall apart, so what? Will our guests

think more highly of our child because of the party bags from our party? Will my child’s ability to make and keep

friends be improved?

Well, the tradition for kid’s party bags ends with me, and it ends here, and it ends now. Who’s with me?

4. Why does the author recommend the dinosaur-themed park?

A. Because it’s more enjoyable. B. Because it provides socks.

C. Because it can reduce cost. D. Because it offers free tickets.

5. What may be put in party bags?

A. Gifts brought by guests. B. Gifts prepared by hosts.

C. Gifts distributed by parks. D. Gift a donated by charities.

6. What is the author’s attitude towards party bags?

A. Intolerant. B. Objective. C. Favorable. D. In different.

7. What do the underlined words “get binned” mean in paragraph 4?

A. Be recycled. B. Be repaired. C. Be thrown away. D. Be given away.

Over the past few years, electric scooters have been brought to Paris and dozens of other c ties worldwide as

an environmentally-friendly individual transport option. What cities have gotten instead is chaos-scooters shooting

down sidewalks at dangerous speeds or laying abandoned on sidewalks. Both riders and pedestrians have been

injured and sometimes killed.

The people of Paris have spoken loud and clear: get electric scooters off of our streets. Among the 100,000

people, nearly 90% of them vote in favor of s scooter ban. It’s easy to see why.

When it comes to scooters, there are often not many rules regulating them, and enforcement(执行) is far from

per feet In Paris, for example, the city technically banned multiple riders on a single scooter and scooter son

sidewalks, but it is not unusual in Paris to see couples on a single scooter, flying down a city sidewalk. In New York

City, there is a scooter speed limit. But it’s pretty rare to see a New York City policeman doling out a ticket to a

scooter rider. Other cities require scooter riders to obey standard traffic laws, but these regulations are often

overlooked.

Another problem with scooters is that there is no obvious spot for them within urban infrastructure. They go

far too fast to be safe on the sidewalk, which may bring potential risks to pedestrians. But scooters are also

inappropriate for the bike lane—they don’t move like bikes, which makes them difficult to see and navigate around

and can be dangerous for scooter drivers and cyclists. Scooters also aren’t suitable for the road, Scooters don’t go

fast enough to share space with cars; and their riders are not protected against vehicles going 30 miles per hour or

more.

In cities where public transport is solid and pedestrians fill the sidewalks, scooters should see themselves out

or be regulated out. And in other cities where cars dominate and public transport is lacking, the priority should be to

build new infrastructure to move people around efficiently and greenly.
