Where should an adventurous tourist go? After you've done sightseeing in London, shopping in New York, tasted the local food in Paris, and danced to your heart's content at the Brazilian Carnival, where else can you go? What exotic (異國風(fēng)情的) tourist destination awaits you?

Well, Antarctica sounds like the holiday of a lifetime! It's considered the last great wilderness on Earth. Just a few scientists in research stations share the icy landscape with penguins and other animals which can cope with the low temperatures.

Tourism began in Antarctica in the 1950s and it's still a small scale. About 37,000 tourists are expected there this season, but many won't even leave the boat.

The BBC's Juliet Rix visited the frozen continent and asked herself if she should be there at all, causing potential problems to such a sensitive environment. Her tour guide admitted that all visitors leave footprints and they all go to the same place, the accessible coastline, which is also where the penguins and seals go to breed.

But some people believe that if carefully controlled, tourism can be good for Antarctica. It has no native population and it needs advocates. Visitors to the icy continent might be ready to support and even to fund its preservation. And they're likely to engage in the discussion about global warming, which has led to the melting of glaciers.

According to Rix, guidelines are followed when you're about to set foot in Antarctica and tourists have to disinfect (為……消毒) their boots to make sure no alien species are introduced.

And once on land, there's no eating or smoking. Rocks, bone fragments — nothing should be taken as a souvenir and nothing should be left behind. Tourists fortunate enough to visit Antarctica must be aware that this is not their home and keep their fingers crossed that future generations will also be able to enjoy such breathtaking views.

1.According to the second paragraph, we can learn that ________.

A.Antarctica has become the best place for people to travel

B.only scientists can be allowed to go to Antarctica

C.Antarctica is less affected by human activities

D.no animals can survive in Antarctica except penguins

2.Juliet Rix's travel in Antarctica mentioned in the fourth paragraph indicates that ________.

A.governments should take measures to stop tourists from going to Antarctica

B.whether tourists should go to Antarctica or not should be considered carefully

C.the animals' habitat in Antarctica has been seriously affected by tourism

D.only journalists begin to pay attention to the environmental protection in Antarctica

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Rix?

A.Tourists can eat and smoke in Antarctica.

B.Tourists can take something they like from Antarctica.

C.Tourists can throw away something they don't need in Antarctica.

D.Tourists can enjoy the beautiful scenery in Antarctica.

4.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

A.Why can't tourists go to Antarctica?

B.How can tourists go to Antarctica?

C.Should tourists go to Antarctica?

D.Are tourists allowed to go to Antarctica?

Scientists used to explore探測on the surface of the ocean. Now they are exploring below the surface, too. They want to know about ocean water and the plant and animal life deep in the ocean.

In 1934 the scientist William Beebe dived 3 000 feet below the surface in a hollow steel ball. In 1935 August Piccard dived 10330 feet. In 1960 his son Jean dived to a depth of 35 800 feet. All these early dives were deep. But the divers could not stay down for very long. They had to come back up to the surface after a few seconds. Scientists needed to stay down longer to study life below surface. Gradually they succeeded. Cousteau, a Frenchman, was able to keep men down to a depth of 90 feet for a week.

Now scientists are developing even better equipment. With this new equipment,men can stay below the surface for days or even weeks. In 1962 Cousteau set up a research station 35 feet below the surface. Then,in 1964,he set up another station on the ocean floor of the Red Sea. This was the first undersea station to operate without help from the surface.

Many countries are now studying undersea living. The former Soviet Union has an undersea laboratory in the Crimean Sea. The United States has a laboratory 50 feet down on the ocean floor off the Virgin Islands. In 1970 five men lived there for two weeks. Then a team of five women scientists stayed in the laboratory. Next came other teams of men. All were there to explore the ocean depths and to make plans for the use of its resources. Scientists hope to find enough mineral,vegetable,and animal wealth there to provide food for the entire world.

1.In order to______ ,scientists are exploring below the surface of the ocean.

A. know about the ocean water deep in the ocean

B. stay down longer to study life of the plant and animal below the surface

C. know about the plant and animal life deep in the ocean

D. both A and C

2.Who made the deepest dive______

A. William Beebe.

B. August Piccard.

C. Jean Piccard.

D. Cousteau.

3.Which of the following statements is true____

A. The early divers could not stay down for very long.

B. Up to now only five women scientists have stayed in the undersea laboratory.

C. The purpose of setting up the undersea laboratories is to make plans for the use of the resources in the ocean.

D. None of the above is true.

Tricks to Learn from Super Sleepers

Do you want to sleep soundly each night and wake up energized the next day?

Exercise early.

Morning fitness class(健身班) or gym time before work? Go ahead, give it a try. 1.________ While experts aren’t exactly sure why, it could have something to do with morning exercise’s ability to help regulate the secretion(分泌物) of certain hormones(荷爾蒙) involved in blood pressure management, which may lead to better sleep.

Eat light at night.

Desiring a midnight snack? If your stomach starts rumbling(發(fā)出咕嚕聲) before bed, try reaching for good-for-you foods that actually promote sleep, like walnuts, tart cherries, or Greek yogurt instead. 2._________ Eating too much of anything within a few hours of going to bed could suppress(抑制) your body’s ability to produce sleep-promoting melatonin.

Power down at night.

Smart phones, tablets, and laptops let you do everything from shopping to watching movies to working in bed. What they don’t let you do? Fall asleep. 3._________ . In addition to reducing your blue light exposure, you’ll probably feel less stressed, which in itself can help you sleep better.

Keep their rooms cool

4._________ But being too warm can make it harder to have quality sleep, say experts at the National Sleep Foundation. Instead, they recommend keeping your bedroom at around 20℃,which research suggests is the most suitable temperature for great sleep.

5._________

Consistency(一致性) is key to healthy sleep. Though for some it’s usual to stay up late, then get up early for work and sleep late on the weekends, doing so can cause damage to your body’s internal clock. Over time, that can make it harder to fall asleep, not to mention making it more unpleasant to wake up in the morning.

A. The idea of a comfortable bedroom and piles of soft, fuzzy(毛茸茸的)blankets is very appealing.

B. Find ways to deal with stress.

C. Go to bed at the same time every night.

D. However, try not to overeat even it is the healthy food.

E. You don’t have to give up alcohol altogether in the name of better sleep.

F. Exercising in the morning could lead to better sleep than afternoon or evening sweat sessions.

G. Put your devices away at night—ideally, two to three hours before you plan to go to sleep.

Well, more and more companies are beginning to create products and services for teenagers. The Disney Company sells the Hannah Montans television show, music, film and merchandise(商品) to teenagers and their parents. You can get everything from branded lunchboxes and mobile phone covers, to monthly fan magazines and clothing. The High School Musical series of films is also intended for a teenage audience. So, it’s all about sales, which tells us teenagers must have more money, freedom and influence upon their parents than they’ve ever had before.

UK teenagers never used to be worried about spending money on clothes and fashion accessories(附加物). That’s changed. Now, they are much more fashion conscious and concerned about their image. In a world of television programmes that promise overnight success and fame at a young age (for example, the shows Britain’s Got Talent and American Idol), some people think it’s extremely important to look fashionable.

So what does teenage fashion look like? Well, it’s quite horrible really, but then I’m a bit too old to appreciate it, I suppose. It’s lots of brightly coloured materials, particularly pink, and usually plain, not patterned. There are plenty of bows, necklaces and bracelets(手鐲), too. It’s all very cute(可愛的), if that’s your taste.

Surely none of the above is a good thing, is it? Can it really be healthy for us to encourage kids to be like adults at such a young age? Are we stealing childhoods in return for a bit of profit? Well, the UK government is certainly concerned, and for that reason has strict laws preventing companies from explicitly(明確地) marketing their products and services at children.

Even the rest of UK society is concerned. Now that people are aware of the problem, there is a popular backlash(強烈反應(yīng)) against the exploitation(利用) of children by commercial marketing.

1.It can be inferred from the passage that the teenagers nowadays .

A. often ask their parents to buy things for them

B. always have more than enough money on their clothes

C. can’t enjoy their childhood though they are rich in material

D. are satisfied with their material life and worry about nothing

2.The author of the passage .

A. supports teenage fashion quite a lot

B. is fond of brightly colored materials that are to his taste

C. thinks it illegal to make profits by selling things to kids

D. is strongly against marketing products and services at children

3. The passage is mainly about .

A. British teenagers who are interested in fashions

B.UK companies targeting products at children

C. a social problem concerning teenagers in the UK

D. products that aim at young people in England
