It’s about time to make travel plans for 2018, and the experts at Lonely Planet say one city should be first on your list.
Seville, Spain took top honors in the travel site’s annual Best in Travel roundup(简报). Seville ranked first due to its relatively new network of biking paths and a set of special local activities related to the anniversary of legendary painter Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. The city has also enjoyed some screen love lately. Seville was featured on “Game of Thrones" this year and will host the European Film Awards in 2018, making it a prime time to visit this brilliant historical hangout.
Even if you don’t stop by next year, Seville deserves a spot on your travel bucket list. The city is known for its rich history, superb architecture and authentic culture that includes plenty of tapas tasting and Flamenco dancing.
Must-sees include Seville’s central cathedral(大教堂), a UNESCO world heritage(遗产)site. The Alcázar's palace and gardens were built over a 100-year span. Off the beaten track, you’11 find charming neighborhoods, bars, markets and churches waiting for your exploration.
USA Today,says it’s best to visit Seville in spring, when weather is warm and the city celebrates both the Easter Holy Week and its annual fair.

A dozen international coffee experts shuffle（把脚挪来挪去）around a long wooden table, pausing at each steaming cup, heads dipping and sniffing deeply. Then the slurping（吃喝或吸吮的声音）begins. In the wings, coffee farmer Yang Fan watches intently as the judges circle, awaiting a verdict（裁定）on her latest crop of beans.
China may be the spiritual home of tea, but it is fast developing a reputation as a top coffee producer. This tasting was a side event to the first ever Pu'er International Specialty Coffee Expo in China's southwestern Yunnan province, which ran this winter and drew more than a thousand attendees, including industry aficionados(酷爱者) from across the globe.
"Coffee has huge potential in China," says Liu Ying, who swapped her life working in private-equity（私人股权） investment in Beijing to grow coffee in Pu'er five years ago. "The younger generation prefers to drink coffee in their offices much more than tea." Still, Pu'er remains synonymous with tea.
This bustling （喧闹的）town near the Laos border is surrounded by the green hills scored with tea plantations; it produces a variety of tea which is also called Pu’er, considered one of China's most refined. But the region's mild climate is also perfect for growing Arabica coffee. And as China's fast-living millennials move away from traditional tea in favor of the invigorating coffee, Pu'er's farmers are catering to the demand.
Yunnan accounts for 98% of China's coffee harvest, with half coming from the misty landscape around Pu'er. Today, China is the 13th biggest coffee producer in the world—rising from zero output three decades ago to 136,000 tons annually today.
In April, Seattle's annual Specialty Coffee Expo decided to showcase China as its portrait country of origin. It follows on the heels of Starbucks' launching its first single-origin Yunnan coffee last year after eight years of partnership with Yunnan farmers.
With global coffee prices at record lows, Yunnan farmers are processing beans in bespoke ways to create distinct flavors—allowing them to enter the market of specialty coffee.
"At current coffee prices, I can't even feed my family," says the farmer Yang. "My only way out is to produce specialty coffee, to make the best coffee beans."That means letting beans dry in their cherries, thus producing a wild, fruity flavor via environmental fermentation（发酵）,or allowing them to "honey" in their sugary inner layer, which adds a subtle sweetness.
Back in the tasting room, Yang awaits the experts' verdict on whether all that extra effort was worthwhile."If I told you this was Colombian or Panama coffee, nobody would argue with me," says Samuel Gurel, CEO of Pu'er's Torch Coffee Roasters, as Yang breaks into a huge grin. "It's a great example of how Chinese coffee is evolving."
1、What caused Liu Ying to quit her former job to grow coffee in Pu’er?
A．Yunnan accounts for 98% of China’s coffee harvest.
B．There is a huge potential of coffee market in China.
C．She wants to introduce the younger generation to coffee.
D．She is tired of her work in private-equity investment.
2、According to the passage, we know that Arabica coffee __________.
A．is mainly grown in Yunnan
B．appeals to Chinese, especially the young
C．is a more invigorating drink compared with tea
D．needs mild climate to grow
3、The “extra effort” in the last paragraph refers to __________.
A．processing coffee beans in bespoke ways to create distinct flavors
B．forming a business partnership with Starbucks
C．lowering the price of Yunnan coffee beans
D．replacing Yunnan coffee with Colombian or Panama coffee
4、What does Samuel Gurel think of Yang’s coffee beans?
A．praiseworthy B．arguable
C．inferior D．unsatisfactory
