Top Destinations for Tourists in Budapest
Budapest is the capital city of Hungary. From wonderful architecture(建筑) to impressive marketplaces, these sites are the top choices for visitors.
Castle Quarter
There is a saying: no trip to Budapest is complete without a visit to the Castle Quarter. The site includes Buda Castle, Matthias Church and Fisherman's Bastion. To have a better view, you'd better visit the oldest part of Budapest just before sunset. Visitors can see the city light up as it changes from daytime to night.
Central Market Hall
If you're feeling hungry, make this your first stop. The market has different kinds of tasty fruit and vegetables,
sausages, cheese, and pickles which belong to Budapest. Visitors can also find local traditional art there. The red-brick building with its attractive yellow and green roof is also a big draw for architecture lovers.
Heroes' Square
Heroes' Square is known for its symbolic Millennium Monument with statues of Hungarian national heroes and
leaders. In the centre rises a column(紀念柱) with the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier below. On each side of the square stand two neoclassical(新古典主義的) wonderful buildings—the Museum of Fine Arts and the Kunsthalle.
Hungarian Parliament
The Hungarian Parliament is a key national landmark. Lying in Kossuth Square, this attractive building sits on the eastern bank of the Danube River. It was designed by Hungarian architect Imre Steindl in the neo-Gothic (新哥特式的) style and opened in 1902.
( )21. What attracts visitors to Central Market Hall
A. Its colourful roof. B. Its long history.
C. Its huge size. D. Its modern art.
( )22. Which place would interest history lovers most
A. Castle Quarter. B. Central Market Hall.
C. Heroes' Square. D. Hungarian Parliament.
( )23. What do the four sites have in common
A. They are uniquely structured. B. They represent local culture.
C. They feature modern design. D. They have ancient buildings.
B
I was born with a rare disease that prevented the normal growth of my right arm. I was bullied(霸凌) at school. Those cruel comments won't affect me now, but back then they struck very hard.
My parents realized playing with Lego was a great way to improve my flexibility, so they bought me a set when I was five. I built planes and cars, and even a prosthetic(假肢的) arm, though I had already decided I didn't need a
prosthesis—they were very expensive, and I was doing just fine.
I made one because it's fun. I have since made several new versions. And my latest model is the most advanced and comfortable. It has a control unit that can send and receive orders from sensors on the arm to the motors, with cables that contract like muscles.
A lot of people don't have the resources to buy a prosthesis. I hate it when people have to pay up to 100,000 for a prosthesis. They shouldn't pay that much—it's not a luxury. My goal is to try to make some that more people can afford.
When I was 19, the parents of an eight-year-old boy got in touch to ask if I could build him a prosthesis. His arms and legs are underdeveloped as part of his condition, so I made two prosthetic arms using Lego units costing only 15. His smile was very empowering(增強自信的) when he used them for the first time.
To me, my creations don't necessarily tell the story of how I overcame my condition with Lego; they're about how I overcame bullying and being upset almost every day at school.
( )24. How did the author feel about his school experience
A. Encouraging. B. Tiring. C. Painful. D. Comfortable.
( )25. What is the author's main goal for making prostheses
A. To improve their function. B. To test their flexibility.
C. To promote their luxury use. D. To reduce their cost.
( )26. What change does the author highlight from making prosthetics
A. He earned great fame. B. He found emotional relief.
C. He cured his disability. D. He improved his grades.
( )27. What kind of person is the author
A. Sympathetic and creative. B. Outgoing and adaptable.
C. Patient but aggressive. D. Ambitious but proud.

Scientists recently conducted a study that involved giving pet parrots a tablet. They could use the tablets to make
video calls to other parrots. It turned out that the birds showed signs of feeling less isolated(孤獨的). They also began to engage in more social behaviours, including cleaning their feathers, as well as singing and playing.
IlyenaHirskyj-Douglas, a co-author of the study, works at the University of Glasgow, Scotland. She said that video calls had helped many people feel less isolated during the pandemic. “There are 20 million parrots living in people's
homes in the US, and we wanted to explore whether those birds might benefit from video calling, too,” Hirskyj-Douglas said. “If we gave them the opportunity to call other parrots, would they choose to do so, and would the experience benefit the parrots ”
In order for the parrots to use their tablets, the birds first had to learn to ring a bell. They could then touch a photo of another bird on the screen to call that bird. The birds were also given a choice of which “friend” to call. In total the birds made 147 deliberate calls to each other during the study. Scientists took detailed notes on the birds' behaviour and later
reviewed the video footage(片段).
Their analysis suggested that there were, indeed, benefits for the birds. In the wild, many parrots live in large groups. As pets, they tend to be kept alone or in a small group. Isolation and boredom can cause birds to develop psychological
problems. These are problems related to the mind and behaviour. These problems can look like rocking, pacing back and forth, or self-harming behaviours such as feather-plucking.
Rébecca Kleinberger, who works at Northeastern University in Massachusetts, also helped with the study. She said
video calling could reproduce some of the social benefits of living in a larger group. ( )28. What was the main purpose of the study
A. To see if parrots can use tablets. B. To check if video calls benefit parrots.
C. To test parrots' mental health. D. To compare parrots'living conditions.
( )29. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. How the study was done. B. What the study found.
C. Where the findings are applied. D. Why the study matters.
( )30. How do video calls help parrots
A. By stopping bad habits. B. By encouraging reproduction.
C. By enhancing fitness. D. By increasing social contact.
( )31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Wild Parrots Are Healthier in Social Settings
B. Lonely Parrots May Develop Mental Issues
C. Parrots Feel Less Lonely Through Video Calls
D. Parrots Correct Behaviour Through Video Calls

When food items are specifically labelled as vegan—indicating they are prepared with no animal products, including eggs or butter—people are less likely to select them, even though it is better for the planet and for their health, according to a recent experiment.
Growing and transporting food accounts for a quarter of all global greenhouse gas emissions, which are accelerating the climate crisis. Of these, the vast majority come from processes linked to meat and dairy production, which is why
experts are advising societies to shift toward more plant-based eating.
“We have to make big changes to how we produce and consume food if we want to reach climate goals and feed Earth's ever-growing population,” says Richard Waite, an expert on food climate policy. But the study at MIT indicates this may prove challenging.
Researchers asked some 150 people attending several university events to choose their lunch between two options, one of them vegan. Choices included vegetable versus cheese ravioli and a vegetable hummus wrap versus a Greek salad with feta. A similar study of meal preferences was also conducted online. Half the respondents in both studies randomly received an order form in which the vegan item was labelled. When this vegan terminology(術(shù)語) was used, people were less likely to order the entrée(主菜) than when it was not. For the in-person attendees, some two-thirds more avoided the dish.
After the research was published, some people told the study's lead author, Alex Berke, a doctoral student at MIT's Media Lab, the results were unexpected. But she anticipated the outcome. Berke herself began eating vegetarian—a
plant-based diet that includes dairy and eggs—at age 10 and adopted a vegan diet three years ago to help the climate. “Anyone who has been eating vegan for a while would not be surprised,” says Berke. “They see the bias against these foods.”
Environmentalists are clear they are not urging everyone to become vegetarians, but, if possible, to include more
plant-based meals. “If you shift a third of your beef consumption to beans and soy, you reduce the climate impact of your diet by about 15 per cent,” Waite says.
( )32. What did the recent experiment find
A. People chose food at random. B. Foods called vegan were chosen less.
C. People preferred meat products. D. Food choices affected climate greatly.
( )33. How did some people feel about the results
A. They were interested. B. They disagreed.
C. They were surprised. D. They felt upset.
( )34. What does the underlined word “bias” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Unfair dislike. B. Strong support.
C. Hot discussion. D. Hard fight.
( )35. What do environmentalists suggest people do
A. Avoid plant-based meals. B. Become vegetarians.
C. Eat less meat in daily life. D. Remove meat products.

As a young boy, I was innocent. Every vacation I looked forward to two things—seeing my grandpa and hearing his wonderful stories. My grandpa was a very good storyteller. He had worked various jobs when he was young and wove(編 織) his adventures and misadventures into fantastic tales. These wonderful tales coloured my childhood.
As I grew up, I had to admit that Grandpa's stories went on a little long, even a little boring and gradually lost their magic. However, not wanting to upset him, my brother and I would sometimes take turns sitting in the living room,
listening to Grandpa tell his stories.
When my grandpa was approaching 91, he suffered from serious memory-loss.It was kind of what doctors called
dementia(癡呆), probably the earliest stage of Alzheimer's disease. Following the doctor's directions, we moved him into a Sunrise Assisted Living Community, where he could get a better care. After that, Grandpa hardly came to our house.
One weekend before my grandpa's birthday, I came to visit him. Seeing Grandpa sitting in his armchair, dull-looking, I was filled with mixed feelings. I wheeled Grandpa to the sunshine in the courtyard, talking to him. He couldn't express
himself clearly and spoke in short bursts, but I listened to him patiently and carefully just as I used to be a little boy.
It was then that I noticed a shadow box with some old and yellowish photos in it. I picked one up in which my brother, several boys in our neighbourhood, and I were playing basketball, wearing basketball jerseys(球衣), with
Grandpa cheering us on ten years before. Paragraph 1:
My mind flashed back to those beautiful memories.
