Travelers must take a plane or boat from major cities in northern Brazil to get there”可知，Baia do Sancho比较难到达，所以选D。2C考查细节理解。根据第六段中的“Eagle Beach may be best known，however, for its dramatic sunsets”可知，Eagle Beach有令人印象深刻的日落，与题干的“enjoy the beauty of the sinking sun”所表达的意思相一致，所以选C。3B考查细节理解。根据第七段句子“It has a fun，laidback restaurant for those who wish to eat and drink”可知，在Playa Paraiso能够享用令人放松的晚餐，所以选B。B(2018长春市质量监测一)Celeste Ng，a new writer，has gained recognition for her first novel，Everything I Never Told You.Ngs parents came from Hong Kong，China in the 1960s.Ng was born in America and grew up in Pittsburgh，Pennsylvania，and Shaker Heights，Ohio，in a family of scientists.Celeste went to Harvard University and earned an MFA from the University of Michigan，where she won the Hopwood Award.Although her novel is not about race，the characters are Asian.The main character is Lydia，a teenage girl，who is the favorite of three children born to a white mother and a ChineseAmerican father.The story is about Lydias disappearance，and the emotions the family goes through as the mystery unfolds.The whole family deals with sorrow，regret，and exposed secrets as they search for their lost daughter.Though the characters in this story are Asian，Ng says she didnt really want to include Asian characters.She was afraid people would think the story was about real people in her life.Because she grew up in America and doesnt speak Chinese，she was actually surprised that she included Asian characters in the book.The book has taken off，especially on Amazon，where it won the Editors Pick for No.1 Best Book of the Year in 2014.Ng is still getting used to the attention，saying she is still amazed when people tell her they have read her book.With so many readers，its safe to say this is a book you should read.But if youre looking for a simple mystery，this book might not be for you.Most readers warn that you should not read this book unless youre prepared to cry.4The novel Everything I Never Told You _.Afocuses on a family with a missing childBdiscusses the ways to get rid of regretCexposes the secret of the American worldDtalks about the life of teenagers in America5Which of the following is TRUE according to Celeste Ng?AShe w
