Traveling to Cuba as an American is like jumping through hoops(环).To help you better prepare for your trip,here are what you need to know about traveling to Cuba.
You wilI need to obtain a visa to travel to Cuba.You’11 need to apply for the visa associated with your travel purposes,such as religious or medical travel,family visits,or people-to-people travel,which is the most common type of visa attained by Americans.
Because of the U.S.restriction,banks have not yet been able to establish a foothold in Cuba,meaning it’s a cash—focused country.You can exchange currency at the José Martí International Airport or at your hotel.Keep in mind that there is a 10 percent fee to exchange U.S.currency for Cuban currency.You’11 also want to be sure to carry change for tips.
You can reserve a hotel room in Cuba online.Then you can call to confirm your reservation.You can also book through a travel agency.However,payment can be tricky:Even if you pay for your room through your travel agent,the restriction may prevent your payment from reaching your hotel in time(another reason to book well in advance).Come prepared with enough cash to cover the cost,just in case.
If you expect to find the blue waters,volcanic landscapes and beautiful villages of other nearby islands,you’11 be disappointed.But beauty is not hard to find here.Old Havana—a UNESCO World Heritage Site—is home to splendid architecture and a bit of paladars(privately owned res—taurants).Limited economic opportunities have led Cubans to be creative in other ways.You can’t go two blocks without coming across street paintings,art studios and joyful ballet music.

A.family visits B.people-to-people travel

Think about the last time you felt afraid.Was it a fear of height?Did you oversleep on a weekday and fear you’d get into trouble at the office?In any case,you know what it feels like to feel fear.
But one woman doesn’t.The woman,code-named“UM”,gave her first-ever interview after years of being studied by a team of researchers.The woman is given a code name because the researchers want to protect her from anyone who would take advantage of her inability to feel afraid.
UM can’t tell you what fear is because she’s never experienced it.“I wonder what it’s like to actually be afraid of something,”she said.The formal name for the disease is Urbach-Wieth disease,which is characterized by a hoarse(粗哑的)voice,small bumps around the eyes,and calcium deposits(钙沉积的)in the brain.
In the case of UM,the disease has transformed the part of her brain that controls the human response to fear.In the interview,UM talks about an event in her life where she was held at knifepoint and gunpoint,“I was walking to the store,and I saw a man on a park bench.He said.‘Come here,please,’so I went over to him.He grabbed me by the shirt,put a knife to my throat and told me he was going to cut me.I told him,‘Go ahead and cut me,’I wasn’t afraid at a11.And for some reason,he let me go.”
Doctors who have been studying UM’s condition for years have been trying different things that could strike fear into her.They finally figured something out—increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels.Extra carbon dioxide concentration in the blood is known to cause fear and panic in health individuals.Increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels did manage to give her a fright.
The text starts by_______.

A.challenging the reader B.solving daily problems
C.1isting situations D.giving explanations

Why is the woman with Urbach-Wieth disease given a code name?

A.To tell her case from other patients.
B.To respect her privacy.
C.To meet the researchers’demands.
D.To ensure her safety.

From UM’s case,we can know that Urbach-Wieth disease may________.

A.stop the brain from functioning normally
B.1ead to a decrease in calcium deposits
C.stop the brain from responding quickly
D.1ead to an increase in carbon dioxide

What will probably happen to UM?

A.Dying of the Urbach-Wieth disease.
B.Getting the sense of panic.
C.Experiencing another danger.
D.Speaking with a hoarse voice.

It’s reported that a male waiter recently poured boiling water over a female customer at a hot pot restaurant after the woman was caught complaining about the waiter’s bad service online.       
The female victim,surnamed Lin,reportedly got into an argument with the waiter,surnamed Zhu,when Zhu refused her repeated request for additional soup for her pot.Lin was rushed to hospital and was diagnosed with severe bums on up to 40%of her body.       
Many netizens criticized the waiter for being too impulsive and ignoring the possible consequences,but some also accused Lin of being too picky.Meanwhile,some came up with a question worthy of discussion:      
Many tragedies are caused by arguments and if the victim can control his or her anger and try to reach a compmmise,the tragedies could possibly be avoided.Sometimes so-called“cowardliness”can be a form of self-protection,especially when you are faced with strangers and you know little about their personalities.
      When they calm down afterwards,they would regret their“ridiculous”behavior and have to pay the price for the consequences·
In May,a male driver in the southwestern city of Chengdu was captured on film intercepting a woman’s car and dragging her out of her seat,throwing her on the ground,before cruelly kicking her several times on the head,simply because the woman suddenly changed lanes in front of his car.
        Forgive others’mistakes and avoid fueling others’anger.Accordingly,you may be less likely to suffer from unexpected troubles.

B.Intolerance has contributed to lots of violent incidents.
C.How to keep ourselves safe when we argue with others?
D.The waiter has been arrested for further investigation and trial.
