     Doctor's Cave，Jamaica
     While you do have to pay a little for the tickets to this beach and its beach clubs，it's worth having the facility when you are traveling with kids.Clean beaches，wi-fi，comfortable beach chairs，and restaurants are some highlights.It's also a part of the Montego Bay Ocean Park which has a wide variety of sea life among the coral reefs.
     Playa Santa Teresa，Costa Rica
     This beach is surrounded by woods，so it is a place in a quiet and private atmosphere.Take a romantic horse ride along the beach，start a day with sunrise yoga，or eat some organic plant-based food at one of the many restaurants around the area.It has become a must-go destination for many young couples.
     Half Moon Caye，Belize
     This area can only be reached by boat and it's a historical national park and protected area，which keeps it from damages by crowds of people.It's also a wonderful place for wildlife.The woods on land is the perfect breeding （繁殖）area for birds，and in the crystal-clear waters there is a variety of sea life.
     Playa Paraiso，Tulum，Mexico
     This is one of the many beautiful beaches in the Tulum area.Find a beach chair and kick back with drinks from the beach club.The beaches in this area can get a fair bit of seaweed，so be careful to look up the direction of the tide before you go into the water.Plus，check out the neighboring ancient Mayan ruins （瑪雅遺跡） or explore the town for its exciting nightlife.There are plenty of travelers visiting the area，so you'll easily make friends.

• 3．    The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore，completed in 1436，is the most important landmark in Florence，Italy，and the fourth largest church in the world.
     The most famous part of the church is the dome （穹頂）.It was created by the genius of the Renaissance （文藝復(fù)興），F(xiàn)ilippo Brunelleschi，who showed a great mastery of technical knowledge.Interestingly，Brunelleschi had been a trained goldsmith （金匠） and had never built anything in his life before building the masterpiece.This may sound crazy，but in many ways we look at the relation between Brunelleschi and the church，it seemed that he was "the chosen one" to complete the construction.
     When he was born in 1377，the church had been under construction for 80 years with no solution to the dome-shaped roof.The building of the church had grown so larger and grander than the original plans that no one had any idea how it would or could be done.In 1418 a public competition was announced for the construction of the dome.Of course，there was the possibility of building the dome with a wooden structure to support it，but that would end up being costly requiring over 400 trees，lots of manpower and time.When Brunelleschi entered the competition，he was the only one with an idea that did not use wood，which caught the attention of the judges.Brunelleschi did many mathematical calculations and invented a lot of new tools and machines for the project，which was started two years after he won the competition.He finished the dome in only sixteen years，which was shockingly fast back in his time.
     Always known as a secretive person，Brunelleschi didn't leave a single building plan，drawing，or even a letter behind on how he managed to come up with such an amazing design.For years，the structure was a huge mystery about how the dome was built.
  
  （1）Why did the church remain unfinished for a long time？

  
  A．It was waiting for the chosen one for the task.
  B．It went too far away from the original plan.
  C．The wood，labor and time were not enough.
  D．The tools and machines had not been invented.
  （2）Why did Brunelleschi get the judges' attention？

  
  A．He was a trained goldsmith
  B．He had a gift for invention.
  C．He raised a different design.
  D．He was good at calculation.
  （3）In which year was the dome completed？

  
  A．1418.
  B．1420.
  C．1434.
  D．1436.
  （4）What does the underlined "secretive" mean in the last paragraph？

  
  A．Not outgoing in personality.
  B．Creative in imagination.
  C．Not afraid when making decisions.
  D．Energetic when working.

• 4．    When Salva Dut's school is caught in the crossfire of the Second Sudanese （蘇丹） Civil War，he must flee into wild lands to avoid being killed or forced to fight as a child soldier.Salva ends up living in various refugee （難民） camps，sometimes having to travel hundreds of miles in order to reach relatively safe locations.
     At the same time in South Sudan，Nya travels many miles each day to get water for her family.This long walk and the lack of clean water causes Nya and her family many problems until one day，a man and his work staff arrive to dig a well in Nya's village.
     A Long Walk to Water connects the true stories of Salva Dut and Nya.The pictures of their country，Sudan，are shown in the eyes of children，which makes the book good to middle grade readers.Before you have students begin the book，it would be helpful to have a lesson on the Second Sudanese Civil War.Backgrounds of the geography of South Sudan and the two different tribes （部落） — Dinka and Nuer — will further help bring students into the situations in this work.
     Students can study the way Salva's and Nya's stories are told，and try to tell the relations between the stories.They offer various ways of view on the human life that students can discuss.Class discussion can also include the cultural relations of the Dinka and Nuer tribes and why they often fight against each other.
     After reading this book，you may want to consider doing something for the project Water for South Sudan.But your class's ability to sponsor （出資，贊助） a well in Sudan will probably depend on the school leaders.So，before starting this unit，you may want to raise this idea to them and decide what your school can do about it.
  
  （1）What probably is the book A Long Walk to Water mainly about？

  
  A．A travel journal in South Sudan.
  B．A tale between two Sudanese children.
  C．Life in Sudan from the view of children.
  D．The cause of the Second Sudanese Civil War.
  （2）What can we infer about Salva and Nya from the 3rd and 4th paragraphs？

  
  A．They leave Sudan in the end.
  B．They grow up as neighbors.
  C．They suffer from tribe fighting.
  D．They are children soldiers.
  （3）What does the writer expect "you" to do in the last paragraph？

  
  A．Start a new project for Sudan.
  B．Solve the water problem in Sudan.
  C．Ask for students' sponsorship.
  D．Make the school play an active role.
  （4）What kind of article is the text？

  
  A．A teaching advice.
