Bangkok has become the world’s top tourist destination, with 15.98 million visitors projected to visit Thailand’s capital city this year, according to the third annual Global Destination Cities Index released by MasterCard on Monday. Based on data MasterCard collected from governments, central banks, related public agencies and airlines so far this year, the projection for the entire year says Bangkok is surpassing (超过) London, the previous holder of the top place, by a very narrow margin.
Monday’s report marked the first time an Asian city has been projected to be the top-ranked tourist destination. London came in second, with 15.96 million visitors expected in 2013, and Paris, third, with 13.92 million visitors. MasterCard looked at 132 cities.
Other Asian cities that made it to the Top-20 Global Destination Cities in 2013 include Singapore at number four, with 11.75 million visitors; Kuala Lumpur at number eight, with 9.2 million visitors; Hong Kong at number nine, with 8.72 million visitors; Seoul at number 11, with 8.19 million visitors; Shanghai at number 14, with 6.5 million visitors, Tokyo at number 16, with 5.8 million visitors, and Taipei, with 5.19 million visitors.
The study found that Bangkok is experiencing a large increase in its number of tourists in 2013, up 9.8% from 2009. That compares to New York’s increase at 5.0% and London’s at 3.8%. Paris, meanwhile, saw a small dip in its number of tourists (negative 0.7%).
Caroline Lledo, who was visiting Bangkok from France, said Thailand has many offerings. “We like culture and the people are so nice. We also love shopping here,” Ms. Lledo said. MasterCard Worldwide’s global economic adviser Yuwa Hedrick-Wong cited (引用) overall value for money spent for why Bangkok is attractive. That is true for Thailand overall as well.

A dog, it is said, is a man’s best friend. Put a dog, a kid and a book together, and you have a struggling reader’s best friend.
The therapy dogs of R.E.A.D. – Reading Education Assistance Dogs – have been helping children improve their reading skills since 1999, when Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) began the program in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Today, tens of thousands of R.E.A.D. teams – dogs and their owners – volunteer to spend time with youngsters in schools and libraries across the United States and around the world. The idea is that sharing a book with a nonjudgmental (不带评论的) partner encourages students’ confidence and helps develop a love of reading.
Izzy, a Havanese therapy dog, is a regular visitor to Public School 57 in East Harlem, New York. Students meet him in the library, pick out a book and sit down on the carpet. Izzy snuggles (依偎) up to them and gets ready to hear a story.
“I love reading to Izzy because he listens to me, and he doesn’t make fun of me when I make a mistake,” says third-grader Aelane Vasquez. The 9-year-old, whose parents are from Mexico, is one of 15 Latin-American students at the school who were selected for the program.
“All the students that we work with in the R.E.A.D. program were behind reading levels at the beginning of the year,” Bridget McElroy, who teaches English as a Second Language, explained. “Now most of them have reached the average level, if not above it.” That’s important, because achieving proficiency (熟练) in reading is vital for kids to succeed. Studies have shown that students who can’t read at grade level by the end of third grade are four times less likely to graduate high school by the age of 19.
The R.E.A.D. teams from New York Therapy Animals work with 175 kids at Public School 57 and nine other schools.
McElroy said she sees a marked difference in Aelane and her classmates, and not just in study. “Not only do the kids have time to practice reading, what we are really seeing is that they are excited to read and practice even when Izzy is not here,” she said.
1.According to this passage, dogs are the best friend of kids because ____.
A. they keep kids company through therapy
B. they can protect kids from danger
C. they are helpful to encourage kids to read
D. they are struggling and work hard
2.What does the example of Aelane Vasquez show?
A. Kids from Mexico love reading to Izzy.
B. Only Latin-American students can be chosen for the program.
C. The R.E.A.D. teams are responsible for the selection.
D. Listening without judgment is inspiring for the kids.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The students in the R.E.A.D. program improve a lot only in study.
B. Without proficiency in reading, it’s difficult for kids to succeed.
C. All the students in the R.E.A.D. program can be above the reading level.
D. When not accompanied by the dog, kids will stop practicing reading consequently.

When six the very best students from different cities in Guangdong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment （录取） rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.
Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.
It's no doubt to call this HK craze （狂热）, which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.
How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?
First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.
Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual （双语） education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.
Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.
Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.
The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China．After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.
At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees （学费） are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.
1.What is the passage mainly talking about?
A．Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.
B．Higher education in Hong Kong.
C．The competition between HK University and Peking University.
D．The fall of mainland universities.
2.Top students from mainland apply for （申请） HK universities because ______.
A．many students now would love to study abroad to get a better experience
B．they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities
C．HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study
D．Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation
3.From the passage we can see HK universities _______.
A．didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland
B．didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular
C．have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there
D．are proud of their teaching staff and facilities
4.What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?
A．Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.
B．The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.
C．Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge HK universities.
D．Top students should be offered further education free of charge.
