4 Top Tours in Africa

This magic, the vast natural landscapes, breathtakingly beautiful flora and fauna of the inhabitants of the continent, easily makes it one of the great safari destinations in the world. Here is a close look at some top tours in Africa.

Namibia and Botswana Tour

Namibia is surprisingly beautiful while Botswana presents the best of game viewing in private reserves. The combination of these two into a single safari easily sums up a fascinating tour of Southern Africa.

I've had many wonderful holidays,but my favorite memory is that of a few summer weeks spent in Italy when I was about 13.My mom had to go to a clinic there for treatment,and we all went together as a family and took the opportunity to have a beautiful vacation as well. It was the first time abroad for me and it was a vacation that broadened my perspective,taught me a lot,and helped shape a bit of who I am today.

Although we did visit many famous places in northern Italy,we stayed mostly in a little town where some friends of my parents lived. Nothing helped me understand Italian culture better than my stay in this picturesque,almost magical town that many haven't even heard of.

Thanks to the holiday spent in Italy,I,quite a shallow girl,also discovered my passion for music,which stayed alive in me to this day and will probably stay forever. My parents' friends had a son,Ricardo,who was a pianist. Dad had repeatedly but unsuccessfully tried to make me study an instrument and stick to it. However,when I heard Ricardo play,I instantly fell in love with music and felt a great desire to learn it. Ricardo taught me the first song I ever played on the piano,a silly,playful little tune that I still know by heart.

We took a short trip to the Italian Alps at some point. I had never seen such majestic beauty before! The snow­covered peaks,the intimidating rocks,the fresh,harsh air — what an experience! And what I remember impressed me the most was the fact that,although this was a popular touristic area,the region was incredibly clean,still “natural”,with places that seemed to never have been touched by humans. Then,the shallow teen that I was learned what a real treasure nature is and how important it is to protect it.25.What was the main purpose for the author and her family to go to Italy?

A.To cure the author's mother of her illness.

B.To have a family reunion while travelling.

C.To broaden and shape the author's perspective.

D.To experience and learn from another culture.

26.What contributed to the author's passion for music?

A.Her father's instructions.

B.Ricardo's performance.

C.The piano she played on.

D.The local music culture.

27.The trip to the Italian Alps helped the author learn to ________.

A.stick to her own passion

B.balance between cultures

C.get rid of her shallowness

D.cherish and protect nature

28.What would be the best title of the text?

A.My Favorite Holiday Memory

B.A Trip Shaping My Personality

C.Lessons from a Foreign Culture

D.My Passion for Music and Nature

C

Athletes who can run several marathons in just months might seem unstoppable. The biggest obstacle(阻碍),it turns out,is their own bodies. A new study find out for the first time a “ceiling” for endurance activities such as long­distance running and biking.

“Physiologists and athletes alike have long been interested in just how far the human body can push itself. When exercising over a few hours,a wealth of evidence suggests most people max out at about five times their basal metabolic(代谢的)rate(BMR).How humans use energy during longer endurance activities is another question entirely,”says Herman Pontzer,an evolutionary theorist at Duke University,North Carolina.

Pontzer saw an opportunity to answer that question when Bryce Carlson,an endurance athlete and former biochemist at Purdue University,organized the Race Across the USA in

Runners covered 4,957 kilometers over the course of 20 weeks in a series of marathons stretching from Los Angeles,California,to Washington,D.C.

To find out how many calories the athletes in the study burned,Pontzer,Carlson,and colleagues replaced the normal hydrogen and oxygen in their drinking water with harmless,uncommon isotopes(同位素)of those elements. By chemically tracing how these isotopes flush out in urine,sweat,and breath,scientists can calculate how much carbon dioxide an athlete produces — a measure that directly relates to how many calories they burn.

Pontzer's team then collected energy consumption data over the course of the race to see how many calories they burned per day.They found that whatever the event is,energy consumption leveled off after about 20 days,eventually staying at a steady level at about 2.5 times an athlete's BMR.At that point,the body is burning calories more quickly than it can absorb food and turn it into energy,representing a biologically determined ceiling on human performance.

“It was just one of those moments of discovery that as a scientist you just live for,” Pontzer said.“We ended up plotting out the very limits of human endurance,the envelope for what humans can do.”

29.What does the underlined word “ceiling” in the first paragraph refer to?

A.The weakness of human bodies.

B.The effect of lasting exercise.

C.The way humans use energy.

D.The limit of human endurance.

30.Which of the following is a direct measure of an athlete's energy consumption?

A.The hydrogen and oxygen in their drinking water.

B.The carbon dioxide their bodies create.

C.The amount of their urine,sweat and breath.

D.The remaining isotopes in their body.

31.What is the purpose of Pontzer's study?

A.To confirm that an athlete's physical extreme is mainly determined by his BMR.

B.To compare human limits in common exercise with those in endurance activities.

C.To find out where the highest energy consumption of an athlete lies.

D.To set a reasonable standard for researches concerned with human body

32.How did Pontzer feel when their study results came out?

A.Excited. B.Regretful. C.Surprised. D.Hopeful.

D

“Give us back our stolen hour!” Britons demanded as they objected to the introduction of Daylight Saving Time(DST)in 1916. The idea of setting the clocks to move an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening during summer has been controversial(有争议的)throughout its history. People have argued that the practice saves energy, reduces crime, and prevents traffic accidents. Others are not so convinced, and studies conducted over the past decade have shown mixed results.

The idea was first put into operation in Germany during World War I(1914­1918)in an attempt to reduce coal supply during wartime. Britain soon followed with its own Summer Time but so did confusion and chaos, with some institutions following the changes and some simply ignoring them. One writer felt angry at the laws in a more poetic manner, expressing his dislike for being forced to favor the sun over the moon.

Despite the early controversy, 82 countries currently use DST. The United States moves its

clocks forward an hour at 2 a.m. on the second Sunday in March and back an hour on the first Sunday in November. Some states, however, still do not apply DST, and in the past even some areas within individual states refused to observe DST while the rest of the state did.

It was originally thought that DST would reduce energy consumption as people would use less electric lighting in the evening due to the increased hours of daylight. However, recent studies have suggested that this benefit has been canceled out by the increased use of home air conditioners, which people use for longer on long summer evenings.

Brighter evenings have reduced the number of traffic accidents in countries which observe DST, but studies have also noticed a spike(剧增) in the number of accidents during the week after the clocks change, possibly due to the sudden interruption of people's sleeping patterns.

One certain good thing to come out of DST, however, happened in 1999, when a group of West Bank terrorists(on DST) delivered bombs to a cell in Israel(not on DST) but ignored the time difference when setting the timers for their bombs. The bombs went off one hour earlier than planned, killing three terrorists instead of the intended civilians.

33. Which of the following statements about DST is TRUE?

A. It was introduced from Germany to Britain after World War I.

B. It can help save energy and reduce traffic accidents.

C. It forces people to appreciate the sun more than the moon.

D. It probably affects people's sleeping patterns.

34. Terrorists should have set the bomb timers at ________(West Bank Time) for an 8:00 pm explosion in Israel.

A. 7:00 am

B. 7:00 pm

C. 8:00 pm

D. 9:00 pm

35. This passage can best be described as ________.

A. an advertisement

B. an annual report

C. an informative essay

D. a persuasive writing
