Tayka Hotel De Sal
Where: Tahua, Bolivia
How much: About $95 a night
Why it’s cool: You’ve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That’s something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses (床垫) and blankets). The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake that’s the world’s biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
Green Magic Nature Resort
Where: Vythiri, India
How much: About $240 a night
Why it’s cool: Ridding a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window—there is no glass!—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy. Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read. You don’t even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”.
Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
Where: Cottonwood, Idaho
How much: $92 a night
Why it’s cool: This doghouse isn’t just for the family pet. Sweet Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps of the loft in Willy’s head, or hang out inside his nose. Although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters, there is also a toilet in the 12-foot-tall fire hydrant outside.
Gamirasu Cave Hotel
Where: Ayvali, Turkey
How much: Between $130 and $475 a night.
Why it’s cool: This is caveman cool! Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65℉in summer. (Don’t worry—there is heat in winter.)
【小题1】What do we know about Tayka Hotel de Sal?

A.It is located on a prehistoric wet lake.
B.It must be protected against rain.
C.Everything in the hotel is made of salt.
D.You have to cross a rope bridge to the hotel.
【小题2】What is the similarity of the four hotels?
A.Being unique B. Being expensive.

【小题3】What does the underline part “Sweet Willy" refer to?
A. The name of the hotel.
B.  The name of a pet dog of the hotel owner
C. The building of Dog Bark Park InnB&B.
D.  The name of the hotel owner.
【小题4】Which of the hotel makes you have a feeling of living in the for past?
A.Tayka Hotel De Sal
B. Green Magic Nature Resort
C.Dog Bark Park InnB&B
D. Gamirasu Cave Hotel
【小题5】What may be the purpose of the writer writing the passage?

科目:高中英语 来源: 题型:阅读理解

The parents of a troubled teen may feel unsure as to whom to turn to in order to find help for their child. They may feel as if they have exhausted all of their options, and sometimes they are on the verge of giving up. But there is hope. Schools for troubled teens offer discipline and in some cases, drug treatment programs that can provide important life skills, and more importantly, a fresh start.
The following is a list of the most effective types of schools for troubled teens. Not every facility is a match for every child, but by knowing the differences between them, parents can make a better educated decision about where to send their teenager.
Boarding Schools
When a child is unable to deal with the relative freedom of a standard school day, boarding schools might be a good choice. At boarding schools, the child lives in a dorm setting, where almost every minute of the day is scheduled by school administrators.
Treatment Centers
When a teenager has an addiction to drugs or alcohol, a residential center that specializes in young people is an outstanding way to help them break the cycle of addiction. Treatment centers feature individual and group counseling to help identify the root causes of the drug problem and help develop the life skills needed to stay clean when the program is over.
Wilderness Programs 
Designed to help improve the discipline and self-reliance of the child, wilderness programs send kids back to nature. By placing them in a foreign and sometimes uncomfortable setting, wilderness programs hope to improve children’s behavior. Programs generally include hikes, exercise programs and team building exercises.
Boot Camps
Boot camps are the most extreme style of school for troubled teens. These facilities are modeled after actual military boot camps, where the individual must get into shape, work as part of a team, and follow a long, hard set of rules and regulations. However, boot camps might not be the best choice for a teen with a drug addiction.
【小题1】Who would be the intended readers of the passage?

A.Teachers.B.Parents.C.Students.D.Experts.
【小题2】As the author suggests, schools for troubled teens______.
A.can be a good choice for some desperate parents
B.can completely help and change troubled teens
C.are becoming popular with teens in trouble
D.care more about discipline than life skills
【小题3】According to the passage, boarding schools_____.
A.provide children with more freedom
B.have their students’ time managed carefully
C.pay much attention to team building exercises
D.can make children feel safer
【小题4】What’s the purpose of this passage?
A.To introduce schools for troubled teens.
B.To show some problems of troubled teens.
C.To teach parents how to educate their children.
D.To remind parents to care for their children.
