When did you last see a polar bear? On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, the air temperature was 3℃, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group. This is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.

  Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.

The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits (or advantages) of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统)because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming.

  The main benefits (or advantages) of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says. "When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."

The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that

__________.

A. they must reach the age of 60

B. they should be easy to make friends with

C. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold months

  D. they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February

Doctors __________.

A. encourage people to take part in cold-water swimming actively

  B. point out the possible danger of blood illness during cold-water swimming

  C. believe swimming is helpful both in winter and in summer

  D. have different ideas about the medical effects of cold-water swimming

According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that __________.

  A. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue

  B. cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter

  C. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high

  D. Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water

The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round, for __________.

  A. they can remain young                         B. it is an easy way to keep the body warm in winter

  C. they find it enjoyable and interesting        D. they might meet fewer troubles in life

The passage is mainly about __________.

A. a group of cold-water swimming lovers              

B. the polar bears' life 

  C. doctors' ideas about cold-water swimming              

D. the requirements of the Polar Bear Club

“Choo,Choo!”Here comes the Chunnel train. Get aboard if you want to learn more about this underground transportation system. This is an unusual form of transportation, because it is a tunnel that trains travel through and not an actual form of transportation.

The Chunnel is actually the English nickname for the Channel Tunnel. In French,it is called le tunnel sous la Manche. It is a rail tunnel beneath the English Channel at the Straits of Dover. It connects Cheriton in Kent, England with Sangatte in northern France. It is the second longest rail tunnel in the world.

Did you know that the British and the French had a race while they were building the Chunnel? The race was to see who could get to the middle of the tunnel first. The British won by a little bit. It took 15,000 workers over seven years to dig the tunnel. The tunnel was finished in 1994.

The completed Chunnel cost about $21 billion. But it all paid off, because it became very popular, very quick. Millions of people use it. Now it is getting even more popular.

There are three complete tunnels in the Chunnel. The two outside ones are the passenger trains. The small inner one is a guidance train. The guidance train is not used for transportation. Each track is exactly parallel to each other.

There are four different train systems in the Chunnel. The Eurostar is a high speed passenger service that connects London, Paris, Brussels and Lille. The Eurotunnel shuttle is a rail ferry service. These shuttles carry cars and vans. These are railcars that allow drivers to drive their vehicles on and off. There are also two Eurotunnel goods service trains.

Now you know more about the Chunnel. Everybody off,this is the last stop.

1.The Channel Tunnel links   ________with________.

A. London; Paris                        B. Cheriton; Sangatte

Culture shock isn’t a clinical term or medical condition. It’s simply a common way to describe the confusing and nervous feelings a person have after leaving a familiar culture to live in a new and different culture.

It’s natural to have difficulty adjusting to a new culture. People from other cultures may have grown up with values and beliefs that differ from yours. Because of these differences,the things they talk about,the ways they express themselves and the importance of various ideas may be very different from what you are used to. But the good news is that culture shock is temporary.

What causes culture shock?

To understand culture shock,it helps to understand what culture is. You may know that genes determine a big part of how you look and act. What you might not know is that your environment has a big effect on your appearance and behavior as well.

Your environment isn’t just the air you breathe and the food you eat,though;a big part of your environment is culture. Culture is made up of the common things that members of a community learn from family,friends,media,literature,and even strangers. These are the things that influence how you look,act,and communicate. Often,you don’t even know you are learning these things because they become second­nature to you-for instance,the way you shake hands with someone,the kind of things you find funny,or how you view religions.

The differences between cultures can make it very difficult to adjust to the new surroundings. When you go to a new place,such as a new country or even a new city,you often enter a culture that is different from the one you left. Sometimes your culture and the new culture are similar. Sometimes,they can be very different. What might be perfectly normal in one culture-for example,spending hours eating a meal with your family-might be unusual in a culture that values a more fast­paced lifestyle.

Culture 1.____________

Definition

?Culture shock is a kind of 2.__________people have when living in a new and different culture.

?Culture shock results from the difficulty people have in    

adjusting themselves to new surroundings.

?Culture shock is 3.____________.

4._____

?5.____________largely determine your appearance and behavior.

?Culture,an important part of 6.__________,has an influence on the

way people look,act and communicate.

?The differences between cultures contribute to the difficulty in getting used to new surroundings,as something 7.____________in one culture seems unusual in another.

Born in a fishing village in Japan, Fujiyama, 25, recalls a childhood dominated by health concerns. Doctors told his parents that he had a hole in his heart and “they didn’t think I had a lot longer to live”. But during a later visit to the doctor, his family learned the hole had closed. “Somehow I was cured and I became a normal kid,” Fujiyama says. “And I had a second chance.”
During his second year at the University of Mary Washington, he volunteered in Honduras with a campus group and was struck by the extreme poverty he saw—barefoot children collecting cans and sleeping in the streets. Fujiyama realized he could help give other children their own second chance.
Today, his organization, Students Helping Honduras, brings education and community projects to children and families in need.
He started by telling his friends about his experience and collecting spare change at his two campus jobs. “When I had my very first meeting, only two people showed up,” he says. “I knew I had to keep fighting.” He persuaded his younger sister, Cosmo, to join the cause. “She’s dynamite,.” He says. “When she talks in front of a crowd, she can move mountains. Knowing that she was behind it, I knew I could do anything.” Since 2006, the siblings’ organization has grown to 25 campuses and raised more than $750,000 to fund projects, including the construction of two schools and the establishment of scholarships to help young women attend college.
Fujiyama says students are deeply committed to the organization. They raise money and then travel to Honduras to help building houses. While Fujiyama spends his summers in Honduras working alongside volunteers, he spends a large portion of the year on the road visiting colleges to raise funds. Cosmo Fujiyama, 23, lives in Honduras full time to coordinate(协调)the group’s building efforts on the ground.
Students Helping Honduras is working with community members of Siete de Abril to build a new village. Many of the families lost their belongings in Hurricane Mitch in 1998. A lot of them didn’t have access to clean water or health care, and they didn’t have a school. Fujiyama’s group helped build 44 homes in the village named “Sunshine Village”. The organization is also raising funds to build a water tower, an eco-friendly sanitation system and a library.

    At the beginning of his organization, ________.

    1. A.
      Fujiyama was supported by many friends
    2. B.

      mean

      sympathetic
    4. D.

      friends’
    4. D.
