A
It’s time for fun outside! Take your bathing suit and sunscreen and head to these sunny spots that offer the best getaways for every interest!
San Juan, Puerto Rico
Head to the hot city nightlife of San Juan. Top chefs, stylish hotels, bars, clubs and shops are all just steps away from the tropical beaches. And since Puerto Rico is a United States Commonwealth, it’s one of the easiest islands in the Caribbean to visit since you won’t need a passport, have to change money, or even worry about your cellphone working. Puerto Rico is also one of the best tropical vacations you can take without leaving the United States.
Riviera Maya, Mexico
What’s better than diving into the salty sea? Going into the clear and salt-free waters of the naturally occurring limestone cenotes (石灰岩沼穴) of the Riviera Maya and Yucatan Peninsula. Spend a sunny day exploring these natural cave pools filled with cool water that springs from the ground below and the thick palm forests that surround them. Then head back to the perfectly located Fairmont Mayakoba for comfortable rooms and modem Mexican cuisine.
New Orleans, Louisiana
New Orleans’ lively nightlife and live-music scenes make “the Big Easy” a great girls’ getaway. And even if your crew isn’t one to seek out the boozy Bourbon Street crawl，there’s plenty of amazing food in the French Quarter，plenty of shopping and strolling in the Garden District.
Clearwater, Florida
If you want to meet a real movie star while also enjoying the sunbath, head to the Gulf shores of Clearwater, Florida. Here you can meet the stars of Dolphin Tale and Dolphin Tale 2, Winter and Hope, who are in residence full-time at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.

Harper Lee was an American novelist widely known for To Kill a Mockingbird, published in 1960, which won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize and has become a classic of modem American literature. The 1962 film adaptation starring Gregory Peck won three Academy Awards.
For decades, the book was Lee’s only major work of published fiction, but it was hugely influential for generations of US readers. It has sold more than 10 million copies, and is one of the most widely taught novels in the US schools. In 2007 she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for her contributions to literature.
Lee wanted to live a simple life and was never comfortable with the attention the novel won her, and she practically disappeared from public life after it appeared. The world, however, continued waiting for a new novel from her, and on occasion she suggested that she had a story in progress.
In 2015, a book did come out. Go Set a Watchman was more of a first draft, featuring Scout, the young girl who was the main character of To Kill a Mockingbird. Go Set a Watchman tells a story of Scout as an adult. Accusations arose that the 89-year-old Lee was not able to agree to the manuscript’s release，and that various parties had signed on her behalf.
Though Lee moved to New York in 1949, she spent many years guarding her privacy (隐私) in Monroeville, which served as the clear inspiration for the setting in To Kill a Mockingbird.
In 2007, Lee suffered a stroke (中风), but recovered and later settled in Monroeville permanently to care for her sister, Alice, who died in 2014. She was said to eat breakfast every morning at the same fast-food spot, and was friendly with her neighbors. The countless Americans knew her only through her works，and they will undoubtedly miss her.
24. What can be learned about Harper Lee from the first two paragraphs? A. She was regarded the greatest writer in America.
B. Meet some famous stars. D. Explore natural cave pools. B. No passport is needed.
D. Many travel services are offered.

25. Why did Harper Lee disappear from public life after her first novel came out? A. She tried to get out of accusations. B. She wanted to write another novel. C. She intended to avoid being bothered.
D. She wasn’t comfortable with her novel’s influence. 26. What can we learn about Harper Lee’s Go Set a Watchman? A. It tells her own life story. B. It is adapted into a famous film. C. It won her lots of honors and awards. D. It continues the story of her earlier one.
27. What can be inferred about Harper Lee from the last paragraph? A. She died of a stroke in 2014. B. She will be remembered forever. C. She cared much for her neighbors. D. She led a lonely life in her later life.

Scientists have created the world’s first living, self-healing robots using stem cells (干细胞) from frogs. Named xenobots after the African clawed frog from which they take their stem cells, the “machines” are less than a millimeter wide — small enough to travel inside human bodies. They can walk and swim, survive for weeks without food, and work together in groups. “These are entirely new life forms,” said the University of Vermont, which conducted the research with Tufts University’s Allen Discovery Center.
The researchers removed living stem cells from frog embryos (胚胎), and left them to hatch. Then, the cells were cut and reshaped into specific “body forms” designed by a supercomputer — forms “never seen in nature”，according to a news release from the University of Vermont.
Xenobots even have regenerative abilities. When the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving. They don’t look like traditional robots - they have no shiny clothing or robotic arms. Instead, they look more like a tiny drop of moving pink flesh. The researchers say this is deliberate — this “biological machine” can achieve things typical robots of steel and plastic cannot. “Traditional robots degrade over time and can produce
