Here are some tips on how to keep you，your belongings and your money safe during traveling. After all，it'd be a shame to spend all that time finding the best price for your trip，only to lose your cash and credit cards to a thief.

Don't let others know that you are new here.

You're a tourist. You know that，but you don't want anybody else to know that. Don't unfold your big map on a busy corner. Don't ask strangers on the street for directions. Learn your route ahead of time，and step into a business for directions whenever possible. Avoid flashing your Lonely Planet guidebook around，or publicly referring to your language dictionary when traveling abroad.

Keep your friends close and your money closer.

A lone traveler equals easy pickings for a seasoned criminal. If you are traveling alone，try to hide that fact. Stick with groups whenever possible and keep information sharing with chatty cab drivers and the like to a minimum.

Another thing you don't want to advertise：where you keep your money. A fanny pack(腰包) may be convenient，but it means “I'm not from around here！” If you have a purse，keep it close to your body，preferably under an item of clothing like a jacket or a sweater so that thieves can't steal it. Be sure that your wallet is in a securely fastened pocket. Or go like 007 with a hidden money belt. How cool is that?

Be careful，even in your hotel room.

Never blindly answer a knock at your door. If the knocker identifies himself as a hotel employee，call the front desk to confirm. Always make sure your hotel door completely closes when entering or exiting.

Don't leave your valuables lying around when you leave for the day. That hotel safe is there for a reason!

1.Why shouldn't tourists wear a fanny pack?

A．Because it shows that you are not a person around here.

B．Because it is not convenient.

C．Because it can't be hidden under your jacket.

D．Because it can't hide money.

2.Why does the author mention 007's money belt?

A．To persuade readers to learn from 007.

B．To persuade readers to buy the belt worn by 007.

C．To persuade tourists to hide money in their belt.

D．To persuade tourists not to show others where you keep your money.

3.Who is this passage written for?

A．Locals.B．Tourists.C．Hotel owners.D．Thieves.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. When traveling abroad, you shouldn't open your language dictionary in public areas.

B. Try your best to travel alone.

C. If you hear a knock at your hotel door，go to open it.

D. You can leave your money at the hotel when traveling.

Researchers at Stanford University have developed a new material that can move heat out of buildings and into space. The researchers say the material can cool buildings even on hot days. The cooling material is a very thin sheet with many layers that could be placed on a roof like solar panels(板). However, instead of turning sunlight into energy as solar panels do, the material turns heat into radiation.

Shanhui Fan is an electrical engineering professor at Stanford University. He says that the panels have a layer of material that is like sand. The panels act like a mirror. They take heat out of buildings and reflect the light from the sun. And he says both the heat and sunlight are sent 100 kilometers into outer space. "It's a structure(構造) that cools itself without electricity input, even under the sun. So, what it does is basically radiate heat to outer space and also reflect the sunlight so it doesn't get heated up by the sun. Mr. Fan says it is like having a window into space. The heat is sent directly into space without warming the air.”

He says buildings in developing countries that do not have electricity or air conditioning could use the panels. "In areas where electricity is out of reach for many people, there is a potential (潛在的) benefit for storing medicine or even food. In many of these situations, being able to reduce the temperature is important. And this would provide a way to do it.”

The researchers say the main problem is creating actual cooling systems using the high-tech panels. They say it may be possible to develop a cooling spray(噴涂) that could be used on present solid structures. They believe the cooling spray technology could be developed in the next three to five years. They say as much as 15 percent of the energy used in the United States is spent providing power to air conditioning systems.

1.The first paragraph mainly tells us ________.

A. living on hot days is no longer a big problem now

B. a new material is created to cool the buildings

C. researchers are developing new solar panels on roofs

D. the new material is a very thin sheet with many layers

2.How does the panel work?

A. It takes in the heat and cools it down.

B. It uses a mirror to reflect the sunlight.

C. It sends heat away right into space.

D. It has a window to let out the heat.

3.The new material is especially useful in areas that ________.

A. suffer high temperature

B. have poor air conditioning

C. have plenty of food

D. are short of power

4.What can you infer from the passage?

A. The appliance of the new panel is still under research.

B. Some people got benefits from producing the panels.

C. People may have problems in using the new material.

D. The new panels may save 15 percent of the energy.

科目：高中英語 來源：2017屆廣東中山一中等七校聯(lián)合體高三上第二次聯(lián)考英語卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons — for example, economic reasons — why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?

In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影響) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.

It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破壞) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative (保守的) and do not like change.

Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.

1.What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?

A. Most of them are too expensive to preserve.

B. They are more pleasing than modern buildings.

C. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.

D. Some of them are not attractive.

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?

A. Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.

B. We should reproduce the same old buildings.

C. Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.

D. No one understands why people speak against new buildings.

3.By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means “______”.

A. destroy old buildings

B. put things in a different place

C. choose new architectural style

D. respect people’s feelings for historical buildings

4.What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To explain why people dislike change.

B. To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.

C. To warn that we could end up living in caves.

D. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.
