【题目】Here's a hotel worth writing something about: a company in Poland plans to build tourist accommodation under the sea. The structure can be dragged to a suitable location and placed on supports on the sea bed. The ‘Water Discus’ will be made up of an underwater disc containing 22 bedrooms with sea views, connected by lift and stairs to a disc above the surface containing other hotel facilities.
Project manager Robert Bursiewicz says: “Nowadays it's possible to build submarines ('潜艇) which go deeper than 500m below the sea surface, so building an underwater hotel is not a problem. ”
In fact, they don't plan to have the hotel very deep. Water acts like a filter (过滤器) for sunlight, and below 15m most colors, apart from blue, are washed out. And we all want to see colorful marine life, don't we?
But this isn't the first hotel to offer underwater views from the bedrooms. The two-bedroom Jules' Undersea Lodge, off the coast of Florida, has been taking in guests 10m beneath the surface since 1986.
The company that operates the hotel also runs a diving course for beginners to help get guests down and into the hotel. It is accessible only through an opening at the bottom.
And you'll find all the usual facilities in the room, according to Teresa McKirma, Jules's chief financial officer. It has a television, air conditioning and Wi-Fi. But for the staff, simple things like cleaning and making beds can be challenging, since the lodge is in sea water.
"It actually takes quite a lot of work to get anything down there," she says. "We have to put everything in waterproof boxes and attach weights to them to counter their buoyancy (浮力). "
The hotel has suitably sized waterproof boxes so that pizzas can be delivered by divers to guests who order them for their evening meal. And after a meal, if you can't sleep because of the excitement of the experience, you don't have to count sheep. You'll fall asleep quicker if you count fish.
【1】According to the passage, the new hotel will ______.
A. contain three discs
B. come into use soon
C. have a movable structure
D. be built 500m beneath the surface
【2】【改编】Why won't they intend to have the hotel very deep in the water?
A. They lack advanced technology.
B. They lack advanced technology.
C. They reject to enjoy colorful life.
D. Most colors are washed out below 15m.
【3】 According to Teresa McKirma, ______.
A. entertainment is impossible in the hotel
B. the staff's work is difficult to finish
C. it's easy to get things down there
D. the built hotel is badly equipped
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Passengers can't enjoy their meals.
B. Passengers will feel fed up with the views.
C. Passengers have no choice but to count fish.
D. Passengers may get excited about the experience.
