    The Enigma (谜）of Beauty

    The search for beauty spans（跨度） centuries and continents．Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4，000 years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup．In 18th-century France，wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假发）of long，white hair to make themselves attractive．Today，people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance.

    There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive：beauty is power．Studies suggest that good-looking people make more money，get called on more often in class，and are regarded as friendlier.

    But what exactly is beauty? It's difficult to describe it clearly，and yet we know it when we see it．And our awareness of it may start at a very early age．In one set of studies，six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs．The faces on the pictures had been rated for attractiveness by a group of college students．In the studies，the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.

    The idea that even babies can judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers．In studies by psychologists，men consistently showed a preference for women with larger eyes，fuller lips，and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist．According to scientists，the mind unconsciously tells men and women that these traits —the full lips，clear skin，strong shoulders —equal health and genetic well-being.

    Not everyone thinks the same way，however．" Our ideas can be changed by all sorts of expectations —mostly cultural，" says C． Loring Brace，an anthropologist at the University of Michigan．What is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another．Look at most Western fashion magazines：the women on the pages are thin．But is this "perfect" body type for women worldwide? Scientists' answer is no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world． They found native peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded overweight in Western cultures.

    For better or worse，beauty plays a role in our lives．But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another．Although there do seem to be certain physical traits considered universally appealing，it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single，uniform standard． Beauty really is，as the saying goes，in the eye of the beholder.

    1.People's ideas about beauty ________.

    A. have existed since ancient times

    B. can be easily described

    C. have little influence on a person's success

    D. are based upon strict standard.

    2.In Paragraph 3，the babies in the study ________.

    A. were rated for their appearance

    B. were entered in a beauty contest

    C. were shown photos of a group of college students

    D. were able to tell attractive faces from unattractive ones

    3.The underlined word “traits” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.

    A. qualities B. measurements

    C .judgments D. standards

    4.We can learn from the passage that ________.

    A. the ideas of beauty vary as people grow up

    B. the search for beauty is rooted in lack of confidence

    C. the standards for beauty are based on scientific researches

    D. the understanding of beauty depends on cultural backgrounds

    World travel has moved on to a new level as new websites spring up to enable travelers to plan their trips online. Virtual tourism is the latest name of the game and although relatively new, has seen some tourism websites grow to host over one-million users.

    Typically, this development features a website that contains the answers to almost any tourism question.Tips and information are not provided by a single source, such as the website host, but rather from travelers themselves-often in the thousands. This has proven to be exceptionally beneficial for would-be travelers who are seeking infomtation on questions such as where to find the best museum or beach; whether it is better to tour Brussels with a bicycle or on foot; and which exchange rate bureaus are available in Italy. Questions about food and restaurants; tourist spots; safety; accommodation; and others are all answered. In addition, posted tips promote better preparation, such as what to pack when heading for Sicily(西西里岛).

    Apart from the useful tips, visual images and virtual tours have also been made available.If you'd like to visit the Eiffel Tower, it's a good idea to view the surrounding areas; to pick a safer train route; or to know that it's very close to the Seine River and that a walk along it would enhance the experience.

    Virtual tours have sprung up globally.In South Africa, John Gore established the Virtual Tour Guide in November last year. On his blog, Gore was quoted a saying, "The world is panoramic(全景的). "'We are able to tum our heads and look in all directions and get a feel for where we are, but the typical photograph cannot show or describe that experience completely. " However, there is an answer--technology makes it possible to share the world around us in a 360 degree panoramic way, which really makes the viewer feel as though he or she is really there.

    1.Why is virtual tourism more and more popular?

    A. Online games are more and more attractive.

    B. Many new websites appear and develop fast.

    C. More and more people want to travel abroad.

    D. It helps travelers save as much money as possible.

    2.From the second paragraph we know

    A. we can solve any problem on websites

    B. websites offer all the tips and information

    C. we can get all our questions answered online

    D. we can get many tips about tourism on websites

    3.What does the underlined word "sprung up" most probably mean?

    A. Appeared. B. Moved. C. Competed. D. Reduced.

    4.What makes us see the world in a panoramic way?

    A. Information. B. Photograph.

    C. Technology. D. Virtual images.

    Since 1936, many female space explorers have followed Russian astronaut Valentina Tereshkova. Let’s look at the missions（任务）of four important female astronauts to find out what astronauts do in space.

    In 1983, Sally Ride became the first American women in space. Her team carried out scientific experiments in space and put two communications satellites in space. Satellites make it possible for us to communicate instantly with each other across the world through TV, radio, and telephones.

    In 1984, Kathryn Sullivan became the first American women to walk in space. During her mission, she discovered important information about the sun’s energy and how it affects the climate in very hot and very cold places on Earth. She also took photographs of Earth and measured air pollution.

    In 1992, Mae Jemison became the first African-American in space. During her mission, she did scientific experiments using the weightless atmosphere. In space, there is no gravity, so everything floats! Dr. Jemison’s experiments gave important information about the human body to produce better medicines and healthcare.

    In 2012, Liu Yang became the first Chinese women in space. She did experiments in space medicine, which look at how astronauts can survive and stay healthy in space. The conditions in space are very hard on the body and space medicine helps astronauts work safely.

    Have you wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.

    Birds, especially seagulls are very fond of locusts (蝗虫), but birds can’t easily catch locusts because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colour of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.

    If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of colouring is to protect them. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible(can’t be seen) to the eyes of hunters, because they have the colour much like the bark（树皮）of trees.

    An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid is over, its enemies cannot find it, and it quickly swims away. Thus, it has existed up to now though it is not powerful at all.

    1. This passage mainly talks about _______.

    A. the change of colour in locusts

    B. animals or pests can dye（染色）themselves different colours

    C. how a certain sea fish protects itself

    D. the protective colour of animals and pests

    2. Locusts are pests but they aren’t easily wiped out by their enemies because _______.

    A. they change colors with the crops

    B. they are dangerous to their enemies

    C. they fly very fast

    D. they are powerful enough

    3.The pests that have different colours from plants usually appear at night because _______.

    A. their enemies can easily find them and eat them

    B. they have the habit of coming out in darkness

    C. it’s easy for them to destroy plants in darkness

    D. birds take their rests when night comes

    4.A certain fish living in seas has lived through millions of year because _______.

    A. it is the most powerful in the sea

    B. no other fishes can swim as fast as it can

    C. it can send out a kind of liquid which makes its enemies unable to find it

    D. the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies
