What do you do if you're stranded(处于困境的)on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chance of doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.

  Body signals(信号)

  Pilots from different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. When you wave your arms up and down in a straight line, it means "yes". When you point downwards and swing your arm from side to side, it means "no". If you want the pilot to know that it's safe to land, push your hands out in front of you and bend(弯曲)your knees. If you want to say that it's not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.

  Smoke signals

  The smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so it's a good way to draw attention. If the weather is dry, it isn't hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. Never light a fire unless you're sure that it can't spread. If the ground is dark, light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce light smoke.

  Ground-to-air signals

  It's a good idea to build some signals, too. Use large pieces of wood to make the symbols(标记). If you can't find any wood, use earth. Some useful symbols are:

  F "I need food and water."

  II "I need medicine."

  I "I am badly hurt."

  X" I am unable to move from here."

  Pilots' replies

  If the pilot lowers the plane's wings from side to side, this means "message received and understood". (At night, the pilot flashes the plane's green lights.) If the pilots flies the plane in a clockwise circle, this means "message received but not understood".(At night, the pilot flashes the plane's red lights.)

However, there is no signal which means "message not received". Why not?

 

1. Which picture means "it's not safe land"?

 

 

 

 

2. What can we learn from the passage?

  A. Swinging your arm from side to side means "yes".

  B. If the ground is dark, light smoke can't be seen.

  C. If you need some medicine, make a symbol "II".

  D. The pilots make replies with a blue light at night.

  3. What is the passage mainly about?

  A. The explanation of building signals on an island.

  B. The importance of making signals on an island.

  C. Ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.

D. Ways of receiving signals from a lonely island

阅读下面短文,然后根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

  The porter brings your bags to your room and helpfully explains all you want to know.Then he points to the phone and says:“If there's anything else you need, just call.”All this time you have been thinking one thing:“How much should I tip(付小费)him?”To make your next trip a little easier, here's a guide to tipping across some Asian countries.

  Bangkok

  In general, the more Westernized the place is, the more likely you will be expected to leave a tip.Some top-end restaurants will add a 10% service charge to the bill.If not, waiters will appreciate you tacking on(附加)the 10% yourself.However, if you're eating at lower-end(低档的)restaurant a tip is not necessary.If you're staying at one of Bangkok's many five-star hotels, expect to tip the porter 20 to 50 baht, depending on how many bags you have.Taxis are now metered in Bangkok.Local custom is to round the fare(车费)up to the nearest five baht.

  Tipping is customary in this money-mad metropolis(大都市).Most restaurants add a 10% service charge to the hill, but the extra money often ends up in the pocket of the owner.If the service is good, add another 10% to the bill, up to UK 100 in an especially nice restaurant.For HK 10 hotel porters should do it at all but the nicest hotel where a new HK 20 bill may be more acceptable.When in a taxi, round up(凑整数)to the nearest dollar.

  Kuala Lumpur

  Tipping in Malaysia is limited to the expensive Westernized hotels, which often add a 10% service charge to your meal or hotel room.If you are at a hotel restaurant, expect a 10% service charge.But at local restaurants, there's no need to add a tip.At five-star hotels, one or two ringgit will content a porter.At lower end buildings you don't have to tip.Like Bangkok, many taxis are now metered(打表)so you can just round up to the nearest ring it.

  Tipping is not part of Korean culture, although it has become a matter of course in international hotels where a 10% service charge is often added.If you're at a Korean barbecue joint(烧烤处), there's no need to add anything extra.But a nice Italian restaurant may require a 10% contribution.If you're at a top-end hotel, so expect to pay 500-1000 won per bag.Taxi drivers don't accept a tip.Keep the change for yourself.

  Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might write them in his diary.Now he might get on the Internet and write them in his blog(博客).In many ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same.Then, what makes a blog different from a diary?

  The biggest difference is that a blog is much more public than a diary.Anyone can read what you write in your blog.Usually, a teenager likes hiding his diary book and treats it as secret.If you are not satisfied with a friend and write something bad about him in your diary, he will never know it.However, if you do this on the Internet, that friend may read your blog and get angry.So we have to be careful of what we write.

  A blog has good points, of course.People choose to write in blogs, they know that their friends will read what they write.If you feel sad one day and write in your diary, no one will know about it.If you write the same words in your blog, your friends may quickly writer back to comfort you and offer their help.Blogs help people know what their friends are doing.

  Though it's a good way to write blogs about everday life, I still prefer my old diary.
