Aruba is one of the most well-known Caribbean destinations for tourists around the world.

You’re probably wondering what to include while you’re there.

What to wear?

The main reason why you’re heading there is to relax on the country’s fresh beaches and enjoy

yourself in warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. During most of the day, you’ll likely be wearing

your swimsuit. When you’ve finished at the beach or pool area, it is advisable to bring along a shirt

or cover as well as shorts to wear.

It is not recommended to wear beach clothes when you go out for dimmer --- regardless of the

time of day. Shorts and T-shirts are enough in many restaurants, although more formal clothes are

advised for the fanciest eating restaurants.

What else to bring?

The Caribbean sun is very strong and if you’re planning on spending lots of time in the sun,

there are several precautions you must take. Include suncream, sunglasses, a wide hat, a couple of

bathing suits as well as a beach bag and a cooler in your luggage.

What not to bring?

While drinking water is questionable or not safe in many Caribbean nations, Aruba is an ex-

ception. Aruba is known for having the cleanest water in the world. There is no need to bring water,

so simply bring along an empty bottle.

Several items are not allowed in Aruba for carrying. Those include firearms, e-cigarettes as

well as sharp objects and tools.

My name is Matthew. I'm not someone who has many secrets, because I'm a terrible liar, But

there is one huge secret that I kept for years-I failed my driving test. I had never failed a test before,

and had never even come close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They

signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten a perfect score for my written permit exam, but get -

ting behind the wheel was a different story.

But when October 30th rolled around, my pride set in. I wanted to be like everyone else at my

school, showing off the brand new license they'd gotten. Looking back on that special day, I can't

remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing at a stop sign after a

few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to pull over. I had received an auto-fail since my

pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasn't upset that I was leaving without a license, but

I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class, I told everyone I didn't

want to take the test on my birthday.

One Friday a month later, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for

the first time by myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling I've never experienced-but sill, 1

couldn't imagine ever telling anyone the truth. So I didn't. It wasn't until midway through college

that I came clean. It turned out plenty of my college friends had failed too! And I gathered enough

courage to speak the fact out. Yes, I had also failed.

Now I realize failure and imperfection are two things everyone has to experience, without

which one couldn't make a true man.

4. What can we learn about Matthew?

B. He relied heavily on his parents.

C. He was a slow learner of driving.

C. To give him a second chance.

D. To show him a better way of driving.

6. What made Matthew feel extremely worried after his first attempt?

A. Failing to get a driving license.

B. Missing his birthday celebration.

C. Losing face before his classmates.

D. Making his parents disappointed.

7. What did Matthew learn from his own experience?

A. Honesty is the best policy.

B. Imperfection is another form of perfection.

C. Truth stands the test of time.

D. Failure is a way to grow up.

Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior. One

showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards. Re-

searchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in

Sweden did the study.

They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Pris-

oner's Dilemma. The game is based on the tension between the interests of an individual and a

group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group, so they

would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players.

Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation. The

groups that rewarded the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded

the least. And the more a group punished itself, the lower its earnings. The study appeared last

month in the journal Science.

The other study involved children. It was presented last month in California at a conference on

violence and abuse. Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More than eight hun-

dred children were aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred chil-

dren were aged five to nine. The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared

the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punish-

ment and children whose parents did not.

The study says the IQs of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher

than those who were. In the older group, the difference was almost three points. The more they are

spanked, the slower their mental development.

8. What do we know about the second study?

A. The study is about violence and cooperation of children.

B. The children tested were divided into groups of four.

C. Children's IQs have much to do with physical punishment.

D. Children's mental development only relies on their IQs.

12. What's the cause of bioluminescence?

A. The sea itself.

B. Dinoflagellates.

C. The motion of water.

D. Glowing marine animals.

13. What can we infer from the second paragraph?

A. There is a low concentration of dinoflagellates in bio bays.

B. The phenomenon of a glowing sea can be easily seen in open water.

C. The sea is glowing because of the sea animals that glow underwater.
