Ice climbing is a dynamic winter sport that combines excitement, technique and determination.

Back in 2014, the sport was presented to the public during the Sochi Winter Olympic Games in Russia. The next goal for ice climbing is showcasing the sport in 2018 Pyeongchang Olympic Winter Games before it's included in 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games.

If you are already hooked on this sport, here are some of the world's best places with epic ice formations that you shouldn't miss.

Known as the "Switzerland of the US", Ouray offers climbers easy access to more than 200 named climbs, with free entrance to the park. The ice park also offers guide and instructional services for beginners. Ouray usually hosts the biggest ice festival in North America every January.

China has a lot of ice walls, which are located in different mountains in the northern and western parts of the country. Among them, Sichuan province's Shuangqiaogou, or Twinbridge Trench, in Mount Siguniang has some of the finest such spots. The ice season in the area usually starts mid-December and runs through late February. Climbers can enjoy various ice formations along with a clean, quiet environment.

Alaska's breathtaking Valdez region has been attracting world-class climbers to the region for decades.

After the Earthquake had stopped, when the rescuers reached the ruins of a young woman’s house, they saw her dead body through the cracks. But her pose was somehow strange that she knelt on her knees like a person was worshipping(禮拜); her body was learning forward, and her two hands were supported by an object. The collapsed house had crashed her back and her head.

With so many difficulties, the leader of the rescue team put his hand through a narrow gap on the wall to reach the woman’s body. He was hoping that this woman could be still alive. However, the cold and stiff body told him that she had passed away for sure.

He and the rest of the team left this house and were going to search the next collapsed building. For some reasons, the team leader was driven by a compelling force to go back to the ruined house of the dead woman. Again, he knelt down and used his hand through the narrow cracks to search the little space under the dead body. Suddenly, he screamed with excitement, “A child! There is a child!”

The whole team worked together; carefully they removed the piles of ruined objects around the dead woman. There was a 3-month-old little boy wrapped in a flowery blanket under his mother’s dead body. Obviously, the woman had made a sacrifice for saving her son. When her house was falling, she used her body to make a cover to protect her son. The little boy was still sleeping peacefully when the team leader picked him up.

The medical doctor came quickly to examine the little boy. After he opened the blanket, he saw a cell phone. There was a text message on the screen. It said, “If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” This cell phone was passed around from one hand to another. Everybody that read the message wept. “If you can survive, you must remember that I love you.” Such is the mother’s love for her child!

1.Why did the leader of the rescue team decide to leave the house?

A. He didn’t notice the woman.

B. He knew she was dead.

3.What can be the best title for the passage?

Early excitement about the next generation of the iPhone is building months ahead of an expected autumn debut(問世). Analysts expect Apple to release three iPhones this year, but the one getting the most attention is a rumored super-premium model to celebrate the iPhone's tenth anniversary. And, for that phone, Apple is expected to change the type of screen the iPhone uses.

Here's a quick look at what you need to know about what it means if Apple switches from its current liquid crystal display (LCD) screens to a type of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen called AMOLED.

The essential difference between an LCD screen and an AMOLED one is the presence of a backlight. Thanks to that difference, AMOLED screens can be very thin, which means you can make thinner products. They also provide more vivid colors, which is a reason that television makers have been pushing OLED in its various forms for their big screens. AMOLED screens, in particular, boast(夸口) even greater control over each individual pixel （像素）— which means better contrast for the viewer. These screens can also improve battery life. Because there's no backlight, AMOLED screens can be more energy-efficient when the user is viewing darker subjects, allowing the phone to shut off pixels and stop drawing power.

So why hasn't Apple switched to AMOLED yet? After all, Apple competitors such as Samsung and LG already have these screens on their smartphones.

AMOLED screens are not cheap to produce. It's also not that easy to make the complex AMOLED screens, which could explain why most Apple fans expect that only the highest-end phone will have the new screen.

And then there's the cost. The switch to AMOLED has also been cited as a reason that the price of the high-end iPhone may jump above the $1,000 mark. Beauty, even in a mass-produced world, does not come cheap.

Still, the expense may be worth it, especially as people shoot more photos and videos.

1.According to the passage, when will the iPhone’s tenth anniversary most probably be held?

A. In June.

B. In March.

C. In November.

D. In January.

2.According to most Apple fans, AMOLED screens will only be used on ________ this year.

A. the cheapest iPhones

B. the most massive iPhones

C. the highest iPhones

D. the most expensive iPhones

3.What does the underlined sentence indicate?

A. It is very expensive to become beautiful.

B. Everything has a price.

C. The more you pay, the more beautiful you will become.

D. Practice more, and you will become better.

4.What’s the author’s attitude towards the expected iPhone?

A. Negative.

B. Critical.

C. Positive.

D. Uninterested.

How to survive and thrive

Here are some tips to help you learn not only to survive, but to thrive(有成) and grow in a chaotic world.

Try to build on strengths rather than focus on weaknesses.

1.Maybe you’ll become an auto mechanic, or maybe you’ll make good use of your ability to classify detailed information to build a career as biologist or druggist.

Realize that few mistakes are disastrous.

Did you fail a course? 2.Most of us can’t avoid an occasional failure, but we can learn bounce-back attitudes through failures.

3.

Cecelia, a shy twelve-year-old, became livelier when she won the lead in a school play. “We want you to improve your grades, not spend time on plays!” said her worried mother. 4.And she made new friends with the “good kids” who were also achievers.

Getting into a top university—or any university – will not guarantee success.

I’ve met high school drop-outs who became very successful. 5. Career-changers who face the future with an attitude of “I can handle anything” are the ones who win today. While in difficulties, they keep up their spirits till they figure out what to do next.

A. Have no idea about your future plan?

B. Face rejection from a first-class college?

C. Life is hard at the moment, but we’re surviving.

D. Try to experience success in any area of your life.

E. To everyone’s surprise, Cecelia’s grades improved.

F. Do you spend hours studying models of cars for the last twenty years?
