              Are you the kind of person who likes staying in unusual places? If the answer is "yes", then try the world's coldest hotel in Jukkasjarvi in the north of Sweden. But go in winter or all you'll find is a pool of water, because the hotel melts every spring!

              The man who runs the Aortic Hall Hotel is Nils Yngve Bergqvist. He is also the man whose idea it was. He built his first hotel for an art show in 1991 and he designed the present hotel---over 200 square metres ---himself. It took workmen about two months to put 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden board. As the weather got colder, the snow froze and then they removed the board. The whole building and everything in it is made of snow---except for the wooden front door. There's a theatre, a jazz club, a radio station and a large ice bar. As you can imagine, hot drinks are popular with the guests! The rooms have no doors, there is no furniture, no heating and everyone sleeps on ice beds. But the 800 people who have stayed at the hotel this winter seem to like it. If you want to stay in one of the ten ice rooms, it will cost you about £30 a night. You won't be very comfortable, but you will receive a survival certificate (生存能力证书) from the manager!

              When the winter is over, Nils holds his competition every year to predict the day that the hotel will fall. The person that guessed the day correctly last year received a large painting from an Aortic Hall show. Bergqvist's ice hotels are becoming world-famous and he loves his work. He's already excited about his next project---an ice hotel that will be bigger and better, he says.

              (1) The author suggests people visit Nils’ hotel in winter because .

              A. it is not open to guests at any other time

              B. the hotel is not a long-lasting building

              C. it is much cheaper than at any other time

              D. the hotel is more beautiful in winter

              (2) What do we know about the ARTic Hall Hotel?

              A. It is built once in a year.      
              B. It has a wooden base.

              C. It is completely made of snow. 
              D. It is designed by Nils’ friend.

              (3) How much can Nils make per night if his ice hotel is full?

              A. About£30.     B. At least£200.      
              C. About£300.  D. At least£100.

              (4) What would be the best title for the passage?

              A. Nils 一 Hotel Manager       B. Winter Exercise

              C. Winter Exhibition  D. Cold Enjoyment

              Disney World is a very popular attraction. But going there can be costly. Here are some suggestions that can help you save money.

              Instead of eating at the park, get premade food from a nearby grocery store or even make your own lunch. Also, make sure to take your own water with you because spending $3 on water will make your stomach hurt. Another idea is to pack snacks or quick and cheap pick-me-ups as you make your way around the park.

              Of course you’re going to want to take some Disney souvenirs home with you, but you’ll quickly realize that it comes with a price. Before buying anything, make sure you have a plan. Some suggestions for keeping costs down include picking your own pearl at the Japan store at Epcot, which is all about the experience and only $15.95 plus tax, or even getting special tradable collection pin that you can trade with Disney cast members or other guests.

              When you go to Disney World on rainy days, you may catch a lot of showers. But you don’t have to. Go to a local Dollar Tree and buy disposable ponchos(一次性雨披)for $1. The ponchos at Disney are probably more durable(耐用的), but they cost $9. For a family of five, the Disney ponchos would cost $45 versus spending $5 at the dollar store.

              It costs $17 to park in Disney for a day. Luckily, most non-Disney resorts offer free shuttles(来往的班车)to and from the park and all Disney resorts offer free transportation for guests as well. If you like to be on your own schedule without worrying about when the shuttle comes, then parking is your only choice. But waiting for the shuttle and going by a schedule isn’t really difficult, either.

              (1) According to the author, if you want to eat at Disney World, you can ________.

              A. just take pick-me-ups to save money     
              B. get premade food at Disney World

              C. avoid food that stimulates your appetite   
              D. prepare food before entering the park

              (2) What does the author think of buying pearl at the Japan store at Epcot?

              A. It can be a terrible experience.

              B. It enables one to get pearl at a reasonable price.

              C. It’s a good way to find a tradable collection.

              D. It’s the best way to get Disney souvenirs.

              (3) If you buy four ponchos at a local Dollar tree instead of at Disney, you can save ________.

              A. $32                          
              B. $36                         
              C. $40                         
              D. $45

              (4) The author thinks it is advisable to ________.

              A. park in Disney World for a day        
              B. avoid going to Disney World on rainy days

              C. use more durable ponchos at Disney World 
              D. use transportation offered by the resorts

              Four Must-See Route 66 ( 66号公路) Attractions

                   The United States is full of odd roadside attractions. Route 66 is home to some of the oldest and most known attractions of them all. Here are four attractions you should see along the Mother Road:

                   1,Paul Bunyan and a Hot Dog

                   Route 66 travelers pass by many fiberglass giants (巨人) right along the road. These giants were a popular form of advertising in the 1960s. Many of them stood in front of service stations. They held car parts, such as mufflers. The collection of Route 66 giants became known as "Muffler Men". Businesses hoped the strange statues would get travelers' attention.

                   The first fiberglass giant was a "Paul Bunyan" figure, built in the early 1960s. It's said that Paul Bunyan is a famous wood worker.

                   2,Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica Ray

                   Crown Candy Kitchen has been serving Route 66 travelers from the very beginning. It is just a few short blocks from the 66 path through St. Louis, Missouri. The family-run soda fountain shop opened more than 100 years ago, and has been making candies and meals ever since.

                   On weekends, people sometimes wait in line for a table at Crown Candy for over an hour. Luckily there is free entertainment right outside. Jamaica Ray, a local folk artist, creates unusual sculptures.

                   3,The World's Largest Rocking Chair

                   Fanning, Missouri, is home to one of the strangest Route 66 attractions. Just off the road sits an almost 13-meter-tall rocking chair. The structure was completed in 2008 on the first of April, or April Fool's Day.

                   At one time the chair actually rocked. But officials decided it had to be still to be safe for ever. People are not permitted to climb the chair. We think, however, that it probably happens once in a while when no one is watching.

                   4,Big Texan's Steak Challenge

                   Few places better represent the common expression "Everything's Bigger in Texas" than the Big Texan Steak Ranch. Since 1960, it has appealed to travelers with big appetites and a big love of beef.

                   It is hard to miss the huge yellow restaurant or the giant cow statue that sits out front. The cow advertises Big Texan's special deal, and what has made this steak ranch famous: a "free" 72-ounce (英两) or 2-kilogram steak. There is one trick: the steak is only free if you can eat the entire thing in one hour.

                   A special table is in the middle of the restaurant for the daring diners who accept the challenge. Since 1990, more than 9,000 diners have eaten the entire 2-kilogram steak.


              (1) What was considered as "Muffler Men"?
              A. Hot Dog. B. Jamaica Ray. C. Car parts. D. Paul Bunyan.

              D. Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica Ray.

              A. get there in April
              B. climb up and rock it

              D. see it 13 meters away
              (4) What is Big Texan's Steak Challenge?
              A. The giant cow statue sits out of the huge ranch.
              B. Diners eat up the entire 72-ounce or 2-kilogram steak.
              C. The Big Texan Steak Ranch is the biggest restaurant in Texas.

              If you have flexibility as to when and where to travel then you can think of traveling “off-season.’’ Off-season travel simply refers to travel at times other than the most popular time of the year to visit places. If you’re not sure whether the off-season is fit for you, keep the following in mind.

              Good reasons to go in the off-season: 

              It is less expensive. The two biggest expenses—transportation and accommodation—are cheaper in the off-season.

              It is less crowded. Avoiding the busy time of the travel season also means that you aren’t rubbing elbows with strangers at every turn.

              It becomes your destination. Your vacation is decided by you —not by long lines and overcrowded activities. When no on else is eating in the local café, it is possible to spend time chatting with the owner because his/her focus is on you.

              Bad reasons to go in the off-season:

              Your options are limited. In some destinations, especially if there is a very distinct tourist season, you may find that tours or activities have been cut back in the off-season, and some destinations practically shut down, with no shops or entertainment at all.

              The weather may not be ideal. Sometimes the off-season is that way because it is an unappealing time to travel, and the weather can be a determining factor in whether you really would like to test a destination outside its prime time.

              You go just because it is the off-season. If you are going to a destination just because it is less expensive, then don’t go. Time and money are precious. Spend them knocking off places at the top of your list, even if you can only go at the same time of year as everyone else.

              (1) For which kind of people is off-season travel most suited?

              A. Businessmen.                                   
              B. Retired people.
              C. Officers.                                           
              D. Students.

              (2) If you want to_______, you shouldn’t travel off-season.

              A. have more choices                            
              B. avoid the crowds
              C. save money                                       
              D. find a good, cheap hotel

              (3) Which of the following is an advantage of traveling off-season?

              A. Your choice is wider.
              B. You are more likely to enjoy good weather.
              C. You can get more attention from the local people.
              D. You can spend a lot of money in shopping.

              (4) Where can you most probably find this text?

              A. In a travel magazine.                        
              B. In a health magazine.
              C. In a fashion magazine.                     
              D. In a science magazine.

                London is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It has many museums ranging from traditional to historical. If you are that type of person who has lots of interest in art and history then you must visit the museums in London.
                   Horniman Museum
                  The museum, set up by Victorian tea trader John Horniman in the 1860s, has to be one of the most child-friendly places in all London. Set in 16 acres of landscaped gardens, the Horniman provides various facilities for families, including weekend workshops and a Hands On Base where children can touch museum objects. There's an aquarium (水族馆), and the Nature Base explores the natural world with exhibits.
                   Natural History Museum
                  The museum divides its exhibits into four colour-coded zones, each with its own wonders. In the Blue Zone, a life-size model of a blue whale quietens all but the loudest of kids. Geology takes centre stage in the Red Zone. It's a dramatic elevator ascent through the centre of the earth. At the top you'll find the ground-shaking earthquake simulator (模拟器).
                   V&A Museum of Childhood
                  A lot of thought has gone into making this museum child-friendly; after all, it's a tease to see so many toys and not be able to play with them. To compensate, there are activity stations in each area with Lego, board games, rocking horses, a book corner and many other treats. In addition, the museum hosts plenty of kids' events at weekends and during school holidays.
                   Imperial War Museum
                  There are guns, planes and tanks in the main galleries, but there's far more to the museum. The family exhibition ‘A Family in Wartime' tells the story of how ordinary people braved the challenges of life at home during WWII through the eyes of the Allpress family, who lived in Stockwell. The Holocaust Exhibition, which traces the history in the death camps, is not advised for under-14s.

              If you get into the forest with your friends, stay with them always. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you really get lost, this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let them find you by staying in one place.

              There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you. Give them a signal (信号) by shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times. Any signal given three times is a call for help.

              Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They give you two shouts, two whistles, or two gun-shots (枪声). When someone gives you a signal, it is an answer to a call for help.

              If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house---cover up to the holes with branches (树枝) with lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.

              What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You would have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back. The most important thing to do when you are lost is—stay in one place.
