Huttopia
Created in Europe, but tailored to perfection in Québec, Huttopia tents provide convenient, comfortable accommodation in 16 of Québec's 23 national parks. Built atop a 4 by 7 meters wooden platform, the walls and roof enclose a roomy space that can sleep up to 5 people. Beds, lighting, heating, a small fridge, dishes, and an outdoor two burner stove provide comforts. Open summer through fall, Huttopia tents can be booked for as little as $99 per night.
Tree Sphere
This creative option takes wilderness camping to a whole new level. Setting up camp in a Free Spirit Sphere you can sleep among the trees and stretch your wings in Qualicum Bay, Vancouver Island. Part tree house, part space capsule, founder Tom Chudleigh's handcrafted wooden spheres gently dangle in the breeze thanks to a series of ropes tied to the forest's cover. Suspended at 3.1, 4.3 and 4.6 meters off the ground, each of the three spheres offers comfortable and unique lodging for adults age 16 and over.
Four?Season Tents
Gatineau Park's Philippe Lake has the perfect winter accommodation for you. Standing above the freezing ground on wooden platforms, two four?season tents are attractive with amenities(便利设施) that will keep you comfortable. With sleeping space for up to four people, the park's four?season tents feature double?sized beds, a fridge and a stove for cooking meals.

Choose from three luxurious floating vacation homes with full kitchens, full bathrooms, multiple bedrooms(one boat sleeps 14!), TVs, hot tubs, fireplaces and even waterslides.

Most drinks stating that they are fruit-flavored (水果味道的) contain no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according to a study carried by the British Food Commission.
“Shoppers need to check the labels (标签) before buying drinks, though sometimes the actual content can be non-existent,” said Food Commission spokesperson Ian Tokelove. “Food production is highly competitive. 1. It will increase profits, and consumers won’t always realize they are being tricked.”
Flavorings are focused on the flavors of natural food products such as fruits, meats and vegetables, or creating flavor for food products that do not have the desired flavors. Researchers analyzed the contents of 38 strawberry-flavored products sold in stores. 2. Of the 11 products that did contain strawberries, five of them contained less than one percent real fruit. In addition, each juice box contained nearly eight teaspoons of sugar.
3. Let’s take jam as an example. Some strawberry-flavored jam was labeled as containing no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.
4. Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they have bought. Under current UK law, food packages do not have to distinguish between natural and artificial flavoring. “Describing a product as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packet with pictures of strawberries is misleading. 5. Unfortunately, it is also legal and widespread,” Tokelove said. “It’s time to take measures to protect the consumers’ rights.”
A. The products which contain real fruit are popular with people.
B. The Food Commission suggested all flavors used in a product should be listed on the packaging.
C. If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likely to do so.
D. Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberry or even no fruit at all.
E. It is important and necessary to demand a small amount of flavoring in the products.
F. They found that about 60 percent of them didn’t contain any fruit at all.
G. Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit.

___1. When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.
The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2. .
The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.
By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching” level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4.
On this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?
A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5. In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.
A. Then a third level appeared.
B. Different people have different wants on each level.
C. There are several levels of wants in one’s life.
D. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears
E. At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.
F. Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.
G. Human wants seem endless.

A Good Night's Steep
Sleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life.While you're sleeping,your brain is forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information.Although we all know the importance of getting a good night's sleep,not all of us know the best way of getting it.A sleep expert,Phil Atherton,gave some top tips for getting the most out of the night,which will leave you ready for action in the morning.
According to Phil Atherton,not eating a large meal before bedtime is important for getting a good night's sleep.The time difference between eating and sleeping should be at least three hours.So you'd better avoid eating any food three hours before bed,as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.
It's also important to find ways to prepare your body for sleep.You can follow a routine like trying not to expose yourself to too much artificial light within 1 hour before bed,as your brain uses light to help set internal "body clock".Although it might seem unnatural to schedule your sleep,the purpose is to send a signal to your body and mind that it's time to sleep.
Another way to prepare your body for sleep is to get into a relaxed state by taking a bath or listening to soft music.Both of them will help to take the mind off the daytime pressures.
Having a suitable bed,especially a suitable mattress (床垫),is necessary for a good night's sleep.Sleep is a personalized activity,and we all adopt different sleeping positions.Finding the mattress that suits you will reduce back pains that can result from a poor sleeping position.The bed should be four to six inches longer than its tallest user,allowing for space to move around.
The recent research is pretty clear that a good night's sleep in a major component of good health.Since the start of the 21st century,studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases,such as diabetes and obesity.Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you and those around you.
1.What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?
A.When to start a sound sleep.
B.How to get a good night's sleep.
C.What to do with sleep problems.
D.Why to form a good habit of sleeping.
2.According to the author,before going to sleep,you'd better __________.
A.free yourself from tension
B.check your blood sugar
C.relieve your pain in the back
D.record your biological clock
3.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Not eating food.
B.Taking a meal.
C.Not sleeping well.
D.Having a good sleep.
4.Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?
