Whether you’re looking to ski down the side of a mountain or surf in the sunshine, you’ll find the following three places in the best winter travel destination list. Best for: Families and water babies The newly-built Coral Towers at the Atlantis resort (旅游胜地) in Paradise Island, Bahamas, with new next-door neighbor Marina Village, an open-air shopping and dining marketplace, are just two of the newest reasons to visit this Caribbean popular travel destination. Don’t forget about Aquaventure, the world’s largest open-air water park. With the average winter temperatures between the mid 60°F and high 70°F, it’s a perfect place to escape the cold. Best for: Adventurers Iceland in the winter is simply dreamy and temperatures aren’t as cool as you might think. Plus, there’s no better time than winter to view the Northern Lights. Short winter days mean you’ll have an even greater chance to catch the magic. An increasing number of flights in and out of Reykjavik make it easier than ever to visit. Best for: Families and theme park lovers Whether you come for the Pro Bowl in January, the new Toy Story land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, or Supercharged ride at Universal Studios Florida, Orlando is yet another warm-weather destination for winter travel. The weather is at its best and the crowds are at their thinnest. 21. Which of the following is a good place for shopping? A. Iceland. B. Aquaventure. C. Marina Village. D. Ski City. 22.

B Over the years, I bought countless pairs of shoes that brightened my mood, picked out dresses that improved my figure, and turned over my credit card for lots of cosmetics ( 化妆品) that I had hoped would make me look fresher and happier. But all those things failed to bring relief to my pain inside. But one afternoon in October 2021, I walked out of one store with something more valuable than anything money could buy. I found hope in the unlikeliest place after months of hopelessness, thanks to a woman who decided to start a conversation with me in the store’s café. It had been a painful time for me. Married a little over four years, I had suffered five heartbreaking miscarriages (流产) and, at 42, was slowly accepting the cruel idea that I might never be able to have a child. On that fateful day, a smartly dressed, slightly older woman seated beside me offered to share the photos and stories of her adopted daughter to break the silence in the half-empty café. Her girl was about seven years old. “She’s pretty,” I said. “But what made you decide to adopt her?” I asked, uncertain whether I had stepped into an area which seemed too personal. “I don’t want work to be my whole life,” she said.

D. Responsible. 26. Why did the author see a happier self after the encounter? A. She could adopt children because she was still young. B. The older woman set an example as a good mother. C. She realized life was more important than work. D. Her hope of owning a child was built up again. C Friendship is something that everyone needs. Success is nothing without friends. You share life, happiness and sadness. A friend is someone you can depend on in a time of need and that can trust you with every secret he or she has. So what happens when a friendship of eight years is broken over something out of their control? Does that mean it was never a true friendship to begin with? My friend and I met in high school and have known each other for nearly eight years. What happened recently broke our lifelong friendship. This makes me think about what friendship really means. I always thought my friend and I could get through any argument, figh
