Bangkok might be noisy and polluted but it’s also an exciting city with plenty of things to see and do. Why not make it a longer stay? Where to stay The Khao San Road was a famous traveller spot even before Leonardo di Caprio’s character in the film The Beach stayed there. But it’s noisy, not very pretty and not very Thai. For something more authentic, Phra Kanong offers an alternative place to stay, with its fantastic street markets where every day Bangkok people eat, work and live. It’s not as convenient for the main tourist sites, but it has a Skytrain station so you can be at the Grand Palace in 20 minutes. How to get around Bangkok’s traffic can be a nightmare. Sure, you can easily take a taxi --- if you want to spend hours stuck in traffic jams---but there are two much better ways to get around the city. To explore the temples and historical sites, catch an express boat river taxi or a long tail boat along the Chao Phraya river and the canals. For the modern part of the city, the Skytrain is a fast, cheap way to travel from the river to the shopping malls and nightlife of Sukhumvit and the famous Chatuchak street market. Where to eat 4 The simple answer is: everywhere! Thai street food is among the best in the world, and for around $5 you can eat a filling and delicious meal. Some food stands have little plastic seats where you can sit and eat and they cook the same dish over and over, like fried chicken on rice or Pad Thai noodles. Head for Chinatown --- Yaowarat Street --- and choose whatever looks most interesting from the many excellent Chinese and Thai restaurants and food stands. 21. Where do local Thai people often go? A. Khao San Road. B. Phra Kanong. C. Chao Phraya. D. Grand Palace. 22. Taking______ is a faster way to see the modern part of Bangkok. A. a taxi. B. a bus. C. a boat. D. the Skytrain. 23. Which of the following is true according to the text? A. One night is enough time to see Bangkok. B. Khao San Road is an authentic Thai area of the city. C. Phra Kanong is further away from the main tourist sites than Khao San Road is. D. You need to choose where to eat carefully, as not everywhere is good. B After thirty-two hours on hard seats in the train through the Georgia woods, Hattie was alarmed from a light sleep by the train conductor’s yell, “Broad Street Station, Philadelphia!”. Hattie climbed from the train, her skirt still dotted with Georgia mud, the dream of Philadelphia round as a marble in her mouth and the fear of it a needle in her chest. Hattie and her mother and sisters climbed the steps from the train platform up into the main hall of the station. The round-shaped roof arched. Pigeons cooed in the rafters(椽子). Hattie was only fifteen then, slim as a finger. They stood at the crowd’s edge, waiting for a break in the flow of people. Hattie stepped into the crowd. Mama called, “Come back! You’ll be lost!”. But the crowd was too thick for her to turn back, and she was pushed out onto a long sidewalk . The outside street was crowded with more people than Hattie had ever seen in one place. A flower vendor’s(摊贩) cart caught her eye. A Negro woman approached and indicated a bunch of flowers. The white vendor took the flowers from a bucket and before wrapping them in paper, he shook the water gently from the stems. As the woman handed the money, she upset three of the flower arrangements, which caused vases and blossoms to crash on the pavement. Hattie was frightened, waiting for the unavoidable explosion. Unexpectedly, the vendor bent down to pick up the mess. The Negro woman gestured apologetically and reached into her purse again to pay for what she’d damaged. In a couple of minutes it was all settled, and the woman walked on down the street with her nose in the flowers, as if nothing had happened. Hattie looked more closely at the crowd on the sidewalk. Four Negro girls walked by, teenagers like Hattie, chatting to one another in the way only white girls walked and talked in 5 the city streets of Georgia. At last, her mother and sisters exited the station and stood next to her. “Mama,” Hattie said. “I’ll never go back, never. ” 24. What can we infer from paragraph 1? A. Hattie has deep attachment to Georgia. B. The travel is costly and inconvenient. C. Passengers are greatly motivated and excited. D. Hattie has mixed feelings about the move to Philadelphia. 25. What is the main purpose of the underlined sentences in paragraph 2? A. to show that Hattie has much to learn. B. to indicate that Hattie prefers to be outdoors. C. to emphasize how vast the station seems to Hattie. D. to suggest that the city has many opportunities for Hattie. 26. What does Hattie’s reaction to the incident with the overturned flowers mainly reveal? A. the extraordinary generosity of people in Phila
