Amsterdam is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world, famous for its

beautiful canals, top art museums, cycling culture and so on. It is the capital city of the

Netherlands and often referred to as the “Venice of the North” because of its expansive system of

bridges and canals. Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to

Amsterdam.

Must-See Attractions

Most visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre, which is full of traditional

architecture, shopping centers, and coffee shops. You’ll also want to check out Amsterdam’s

Museum Quarter in the South District, which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and

having a picnic in the Vondelpark. The top museums to visit there are the Rijksmusuem, the Ann

Frank House, and the Van Gogh Museum.

If You Have Time

There are several other unique districts in Amsterdam, and you should try to explore as many

of them as time allows. The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally

built to attract wealthy home owners and is a center for ceiebrity spotting and nighiife today. The

Plantage area has most of the city’s museums and the botanical gardens.

Money Saving Tips

·Unless you really want to see the tulips(郁金香) blooming, avoid booking between mid-

March and mid-May. This is when hotel and flight prices rise.

·Look for accommodations in Amsterdam’s South District, where rates are generally cheaper

than in the city center.

·Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.

·Instead of hirinng a tour guide, hop on a canal boat. They’re inexpensive and will give you a

unique point of view of the city.

It was late on a Thursday evening in Austin, Texas, and I had just finished my shift

downtown waiting tables. I hopped into my truck and headed away from the chaos to my own

personal oasis, Dan’s Depot. It was on a four-lane road that went straight from the heart of Austin

to West Texas. Once, Dan’s Depot had been outside of the city. But with Austin’s population

growing and the city’s expansion, it was swallowed up by high-rise buildings and skyscrapers.

I’ve been familiar with Dan's Depot since I played my first show there. Like most waiters in

Austin, I’m actually a musician. The woman who welcomes customers is Dan’s wife Maude.

I slid my truck into the last free spot and headed to the door. “How’s it going, Maude?” I

asked. “David, I just don’t know what we’re going to do,” she said. “Our contract with the

landlord is up for renewal at the end of the month, and he has doubled the rent. Even if we charged

twice as much for the snacks and shows, we could never make ends meet.”

My heart dropped. On some level, I’d been expecting to hear this news for as long as I’d been

coming to Dan’s Depot. After all, Dan’s Depot was now sandwiched between a shop selling yoga

pants to people who could afford personal trainers and a luxury furniture store where even a

simple dining chair cost more than $1,000. How could this little live music bar survive with those

kinds of neighbors?

“What are you going to do with this place? Are you moving?” I asked. She shook her head

slowly. “I just don’t know. Dan and I are not as young as we used to be.”

I patted her on the shoulder and made my way to the tables near the stage. Memories sprung

up in my mind. Most of my musical ideas came to me while I was watching live shows here at

Dan’s Depot. When the song ended, I got up and went back to Maude.

“What if I run the new Dan’s Depot?” I asked her. She stared at me, surprised.

“Hear me out,” I said. “I’ve got enough money to go in with you and Dan as a third partner. I

know the Texas music scene in and out, and I can get the best new bands in here every week.

We’ll move it way down South Congress Avenue, where it’s still close enough to be accessible

from downtown but the rent is more affordable. And most importantly, this place means a lot to

me.”

Maude was still staring at me silently. I began to grow uneasy. Had I offended her? I started

apologizing. She cut me off with a huge embrace. “Honey, I think that’s a fantastic idea.”

4. The underlined word “oasis” in Paragraph 1 refers to a place where the author .

A. parks his truck B. finds joy and relaxation

C. works full-time D. grabs a meal at night

5. Why did the author say he had long expected to hear the news Maude told him?

A. He pointed out Dan’s Depot was in poor management

B. He felt the sandwiches in Dan’s Depot were too expensive.

C. He thought Dan’s Depot was out of tune with its surroundings.

D. He suggested Dan and Maude retire early and enjoy their lives.

6. What does the author advise Maude to do?

A. Sell Dan’s Depot to him. B. Hire him as a lead singer.

C. Find another way to run the business.

D. Advertise for a third partner.

7. Which statement is probably true according to the passage?

A. The author’s words offended Maude.

B. The author gave his advice immediately.

C. The author worked as a waiter in Dan’s Depot.

D. The author drew musical inspiration from Dan’s Depot.

Please don’t feel singled out, special, or view yourself as a chosen one. She bites everyone.

This is just the nature of the beast. There is absolutely no truth to the persistent myths that

mosquitoes fancy females over males, that they prefer blondes and redheads over those with

darker hair or that the darker or rougher your skin, the safer you are from her bite. It is true,

however, that she does play favorites and feasts on some more than others.

Blood type O seems to be the choice over types A and B or AB. People with blood type O get

bitten twice as often as those with type A, with type B falling somewhere in between.

Those who have higher natural levels of certain chemicals in their skin, particularly lactic

acid(乳酸), also seem to be more attractive. From these elements, she can analyze which blood

type you are. These are the same chemicals that determine an individual’s level of skin bacteria

and unique body smell.

Mosquitoes are also attracted by perfumes, soaps, and other applied fragrances. While this

may seem unfair to many of you, she also has a desire for beer drinkers.

Wearing bright colors is also not a wise choice, since she hunts by both sight and smell, the

latter depending chiefly on the amount of carbon dioxide sent out by the potential target. So she

can smell carbon dioxide from over 200 feet away. When you exercise, for example, you emit

more carbon dioxide through both breath and output. You also sweat, releasing those appetizing

chemicals, primarily lactic acid, that invites the mosquito’s attention.

Lastly, your body temperature rises, which is an easily identifiable heat signature. On

average, pregnant women suffer twice as many bites, as they have a slightly raised body

temperature.

Please don’t go on a shower, exercise or give up your beloved beer and bright T-shirts just

yet. Unfortunately, 85% of what makes you attractive to mosquitoes is fixed in advance in your

genetic circuit board(电路板). At the end of the day, she will find blood from any exposed target

of opportunity.

8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

A. To explain the reasons for mosquito bites.

B. To introduce a new discovery to the readers.

C. To prove that everyone suffers mosquito bites.

D. To arouse the interest of the readers in the topic.

9. Which element has nothing to do with mosquito bites?

A. Blood type. B. Chemicals of bacteria.

C. Color of clothes. D. Body temperature.

10. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. All the mosquito bites are caused by your genetic circuit board.

B. Your blood will be targeted by mosquitoes at every opportunity.

C. Mosquito bites can be avoided if you give up some relevant habits.

D. Your genes determine your attractiveness to mosquitoes to a great extent.

11. What is the most suitable title for the passage?

A. Keep off Mosquitoes B. Why are You a Mosquito Feeder

C. Mosquitoes, a Threat to Our Health

D. How to Avoid being Bitten by Mosquitoes

Quite often, no matter how good you are, your success is dependent on how other people

such as your boss, peers, clients and customers perceive(感知) your communication and

responses.
