【题目】The Republic of Vanuatu is an island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. It was one of the poorest nations in the region. Within the last five years, however, it has become a hot spot for adventure travelers. In 2006 it was voted the happiest place on Earth. The reason is not that Vanuatu are the richest but that Vanuatu has white-sand islands, clear waters, the world’s most accessible live volcano, great diving and food that grows faster than it can be picked.
With a population of about 221,000, Vanuatu has 113 languages, which is a result of 3,000 years of immigration from many Pacific countries. There are three official languages: English, French, and Bislama. Bislama developed from South Pacific English, a simplified language that traders and other foreigners used it to communicate with speakers of the many local languages.
Most of the islands are mountainous and of volcanic origin. There are several active volcanoes in Vanuatu, including Yasur on the island of Tanna, one of the world’s most accessible volcanoes. If you’ve ever fancied getting close to a volcano, here’s your chance.
Vanuatu Post’s Underwater Post Office has quickly become one of the busiest post offices for postcards in the world! Visitors from around the world want to experience the world’s first under- water post office. The Post Office is only 50 meters offshore and at just three meters below the surface, very appealing to the young and young at heart. Since opening in 2003, the underwater post office has received about 100,000 visitors. They have posted one of the waterproof（防水的）postcards available in Vanuatu; these cards are collected regularly by one of Vanuatu Post’s four trained divers. The underwater branch is manned daily for usually about an hour, longer with demand.

In many people's opinion, man's first real invention,is also one of the most important inventions in history, is the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world dependit. The wheel is the(simple) yet perhaps the most remarkable of all(invention) because there are no wheels in nature., then, did man come to invent the wheel? Perhaps some early hunters found that the body of heavy animal could be rolled through the forest on logs (圆木) more(easy) than they could carry it. However, the logsthem) weigh a lot.
It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected, at their centers by a string stick. This would roll along just the logs did, yet be much lighter and easier(handle). Thus the wheel and axle came into being and with them the first carts.

【题目】阅读理解
You might make a disgusted face when you notice that the person waiting in their car at the red light next to you is picking their nose,but admit it,you do it too.And while it might be the natural option when there isn't a box of tissues around,it can be bad for you.The main reasons people feel the need to pick their nose is to clear it of dried liquid,stop an itch（痒）,or just because it feels good.Boogers（鼻屎）form when dried liquid and cilia,the tiny hairs that line the nostrils（鼻孔）,trap the dust,dirt,and other things.When boogers build up in your nose,it can be uncomfortable,and sometimes just blowing into a tissue doesn't do the trick.
Otolaryngologist Erich P.Voigt, MD ,told Business Insider that picking your nose can cause injuries and bleeding within your nostrils.That's not terribly damaging,but when the bacteria from your hands get into your body,it can cause a cold and flu.So doctors strongly suggest not picking the nose.
If dry winter air is causing the dirty liquid to harden in your nostrils,making you want to pick,consider damping the air at home,or taking a steam shower to soften things up in there.
Children, who are most famous for having a finger up their nose,sometimes don't realize how much injury they're causing,and sometimes it.can lead to nose bleeds.
So, next time you go to pick your nose,think about how many bacteria are on your hands and in your boogers, and maybe reach for a tissue instead.Even if you 're alone,and not waiting for the light to turn green,please,use a tissue.
（1）Why do people pick their nose?
A.Because they want to disgust others.
B.Because they have the need to do it.
C.Because they have nothing else to do.
D.Because they don't have tissues around.
（2）Which of the following can replace the underlined part " do the trick" in Paragraph 1?
A.act
B.work
C.play
D.help
（3）Which can help people avoid a cold and flu according to the text?
A.Stopping nose picking.
B.Using tissues regularly.
C.Taking a shower every day.
D.Keeping the air wet at home.
（4）What should you do when you have to pick your nose?
A.Be careful not to cause bleeding.
B.Use a tissue instead of bare fingers.
C.Wait for the light to turn red if you are driving.
D.Wash up your hands and clear your fingernails.
