Several years ago,my wife and I spent a few days in Berlin,staying at the Park Inn in Alexanderplatz,where we got an unusual surprise.
We arrived in the afternoon,tired from our early flight,and were checked in by a rather formal young man. We decided to have a lie down for ten minutes before exploring the city. As I lay down with my eyes half shut,I saw a shadow pass the window.,aProbably a seagull
I thought. Then the same thing happened again,but this time there was a cry coming through the balcony doors.
I got up,opened the sliding doors and went out onto the balcony to investigate — just in time to see a human body screaming past me towards the square below before safely (变慢) just a few meters from the ground. I found out it's a sport called base jumping (高处跳伞).
Once we knew what was happening,we got used to. it. It went on for a short time each day,and it was only the people that laughed loudly as they went down that disturbed me. (I tried to persuade my wife to have a go,but she said no!)
On our last day,we checked out and the same rnsenW (寡言少语的) young man served us. “I hope that you enjoyed your stay,” he said.
“Actually,” I replied, “it would have been nice to have been warned when we checked in about the base jumpers falling past our balcony."
He paused and considered for a moment,ay/zckr (闪 现) of a smile appearing on one side of his mouth. “Yeah,” he said. “Perhaps we should warn people in the fliture." I knew that he wouldn,t. It was their little joke. Berliners,believe it or not,have a famous sense of humor.

Most buildings are built to stand up straight,but these look as if they might fall over!
The church tower of Suurhusen
Built in 1450,the 27-metre-high church tower lies in Suurhusen,Germany. It was built in wet land on foundations of oak tree (树千) .When the land was drained(排水) later,the wood broke down,causing one side of the tower to be a little lower than the other. In 1975,the tower became a real hazard and people were not allowed to enter until the foundations were made strong again. The /eaw (倾斜) of the tower is now about five degrees.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa
The work of building the tower began in 1173,and was finally completed in 1372. In fact,it began to lean after just a couple of floors were built. And this condition continued in the centuries after its completion. The tower was finally closed to the public in 1990 after people fajled to stabilize(使稳固) its foundations. In 2001,it was reopened after engineers repioved soil from underneath its raised side. Now it leans just an angle of 3. 97 degrees.
Capital Gate of Abu Dhabi
Completed in 2011,the Capital Gate tower in Abu Dhabi was designed to lean eighteen degrees. The building stands next to the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre and contains,among other things,a fine hotel with wonderful views of the harbour. Also known as the leaning tower of Abu Dhabi,the tower is one of the tallest buildings in the city.
Big Ben of London
T he building leans 0. 26 degrees to the northwest. This was mainly caused by the engineering projects(项目) that have been carried out in the ground below it since the late 1800s. The tower,which has been continuously open since it was completed in 1858,has nowhere near the lean of the Tower of Pisa and is still completely safe to enter.
32. The underlined word “hazard” in Paragraph 2
probably me?ns “”.
A. danger B. church
C. castle D. treasure
33. What can we learn about the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
A. It didnn't lean until ten years after its completion.
B. It took almost two hundred years to complete.
C. It was built on foundations of oak tree trunks.
D. It has been open since it was completed.
34. Which of the following towers leans the most according to the text?

★★★★☆
There was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with
a seemingly simple question from the (收银员) ：Paper or plastic? Well,which type of bag would you choose?
While all types of bags have some influence on th^ environment,it has long been supposed that paper b?gs are kinder. TTiey are made from a renewable source,break down easily,bum without giving off thick smoke and can be (回收利用) .However,the proild: process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true?
Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the (量) of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides the influence on forests is very serious. It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags,which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recycling,the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. Research shows it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper.
Even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones,plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. In Ireland,for example,a tax (??) has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic bags. People have to pay 22 cents for every plastic bag,and as a result,their use has dropped quickly.
There,s no doubt it makes more sense to reuse these bags. However,we don't seem to be doing that at present. That may be because they fall apart quickly. If so,cloth bags are a better choice,but still,their production also has a bad influence on the environment. So what to do? How should we answer the question of “Paper or plastic?” It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “What can I ?o to help the environment?”

A. express ?ie author,s doubts

A. They are less harmful than paper bags.
B. They can be made environment-friendly.
C. Taxes probably need to be increased further.
D. No plastic bags should be provided in shops.
