AOne Day Fly-Fly Rock Art TourOperator: Adventure North Australia Destination: Cooktown Departing: Cairns Prices(AUD): Adults: $ 549.00 Child: $ 390.00Family(2 adults and 2 children): $ 1,669.00Tour DescriptionA truly unique experience, voted as one of Australia's Must-Do-Experiences. Treat yourself to an amazing day out with Aboriginal Elder Willie Gordon.Depart Cairns Domestic Airport for the Skytrain Flight to Cooktown. Flight departs Cairns at 6:45 a.m.Enjoy a 45-minute flight with wonderful views from Cairns to Cooktown as you fly along the coast between the World Heritage rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef. On arrival in Co oktown you’ll be met by Willie Gordon, the traditional storyteller of the Nugal-warra trible.Willie Gordon takes guests to his ancestral rock art sites, set high in the hills above Hope Vale, outside Cooktown. Here he shares the stories behind the art. He’ll explain how the paintings speak of the most basic and important quality of life and the knowledge of his people.The tour takes you through an impressive view of six rock art sites, including anancestral Birth Cave and the Reconciliation Cave. It includes a 30-minute bush walk on generally easyterrian(地形). (PS: Covered closed-on shoes must be worn.)Return to Cooktown at 1:15 p.m. where Willie will take you to the Nature Power House Museum, Cooktown's Visitor Information Centre.

The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame.Her mother Ruby turned round and, seeing Ammie horribly burnt, called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammie’s body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. There, using tissue(组织) taken from unburned areas of Ammie’s body, doctors performed complex skin transplants(移植) to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation thattook about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4, other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn’t play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,” she recalled, “some children refused to become friends because of that.”Today, aged 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further skin transplants. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims.She is a member of the Scottish Bu rned Children’s Club, a charity set up last year. This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridge shire for the charity’s first summer camp. “I’ll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others.” she says. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops, and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too. “I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars,” she says, “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”25. What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?A.They were friendly to her. B.They showed sympathy to her. C.They were afraid of her. D.They looked down upon her. 26. Ammie will teach the younger children at the Graffham Water Center to___________. A.face others’ unkindness bravely B.hide their scars by proper dressingC.live a normal life D.recover quickly27. What can be the best title of the passage?A.A Seriously Burned Girl Survives B.Ways to Get Rid of Unkind Stares C.Permanent Scars and Pain for a Girl D.A Seriously Burned Angel of HopeCLove to sink into your chairs and relax when you get to school? Then you willnot be happy to hear that schools all over the world are seriously considering exchanging traditional desks for ones with no seats at all — Yes, that means you will be encouraged to stand through those already too long math and science lessons! Why would anyone even think of putting kids to such cruelty? Experts say it improves their health and helps fight obesity. While that may seem a little far-fetched (牵强的) the officials at the few schools around the world seem to agree.Among them are educators from the College Station Independent School District in Texas, who recently completed a week-long experiment involving 480 students across three elementary schools. The 374 kids that agreed to participate in the study were provided a device that helped record step count and calorie consumption over the entire period.All 25 teachers involved in the study reported that students appeared to be more alert and concentrate better, when allowed to stand. The one thing that did surprise the researchers was that younger kids were more willing to stay standing than kids in higher grades. They believe this may have something to do with the fact that after years of being asked to “sit still”, older kids have a harder time adjusting to this unexpected freedom.American schools are not the only ones reporting success with stand-up desks. Four Catholic schools in Perth, Australia, which have been testing them since October 2013, have seen similar results. In May 2014, Grove House Primary School in Bradford, West Yorkshire, became Europe’s first test one, with a seven-week trial that involved the use of desks made by Ergotron in their fifth-grade classrooms. While official results are not out yet, early reactions from both teachers and students, have been extremely encouraging.The findings of these studies and others done previously, all seem to mean that allowing kids to move around in classrooms is a win-win for students and teachers —it helps kids get healthier and provides educators with a more engaged audience.28. According to the first paragraph, what may make the students at school unhappyis that _____.A. they have to exchange desks with each otherB. they have to exchange traditional desks for chairs with no seatsC. there are no seats for them to sit in classD. the officials show no sympathy to them at all29. According to the teachers, older students may not like stand-up desks because _____.A. they are cleverer than younger studentsB. they are easily tired of standing longC. they have formed the habit of sittingD. they do badly in class while standing30. What is most likely to be the result of the seven-week trial?A. The standing desks can’t be used at all.B. It is good for students to use stand-up desks.C. More tests should be done in other schools.D. The students are different in personality.31. Why do the teachers like the standing desks?A. Because the educators can draw the students’ attention.B. Because the teachers can keep the students healthy.C. Because the students can have a walk in the classroom.D. Because the standing desks can keep the students concentrated.DA ban on smoking in public places has come into force in China – home to a third of the world’s smokers.The move is aimed at controlling the number of deaths from smoking-related diseases, running at a million a year.But the rules have been criticized, because they do not include punishments for those who choose to ignore them.Many business owners hate rules that force them to ban smoking on their premises (经营场所) because many customers do not like the rules and complain.The rules do not allow smoking in places like restaurants, hotels, railway stations or theatres, but not at the office.Employers have a duty to warn staff off the dangers of smoking but do not have to forbid them from lighting up at their desks.Shanghai introduced similar rules a year ago, but people do not seem to take much notice of them. Often you find people smoking at the next table while you are eating your meal or having a drink in a bar. The problem is that the rules do not include punishments for businesses or individuals who ignore them.It appears that many Chinese people are unaware of the dangers of smoking. Research suggests that only one in four knows the harm cigarettes of second-hand smoke can cause.Officials say they have to try to persuade people not to smoke to reduce the numbers dying from smoking-related diseases.At the same time the government makes a lot of money from the sales of cigarettes by the state-owned firm that makes and sells all tobacco products throughout the country.32. The number of smokers in China makes up about ______ of the world’s smokers.A. 66%B. 44%C. 33%D. 55%33. We can replace the underlined part in the passage with _______.A. are concerned aboutB. are curious aboutC. don’t knowD. don’t care34. Why have the rules been criticized by some people?A. Because those people don’t want to be punished.B. Because they do not include punishments for those who choose to ignore therules.C. Because the rules are ignored by all the people who smoke.D. Because nobody takes notice of the rules.35. If the government wants to ban smoking in public places, ______.A. only rely on educating peopleB. make more money from the sales of cigarettesC. do punish those who ignore the rulesD. let people know more about the dangers of smoking第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I was five and my mum, Can, told me and my brother Tam we were going on holiday, but as she hugged us goodbye, she began to sob so much her whole body was shaking. I gripped my little brother's hand as I watched the tiny village grow smaller in the rear view window. Like many Vietnamese children, we were adopted by an Australian family.It was a scary, lonely and confusing time, and I missed my birth family horribly. "When am I going home? " I'd ask again and again in Vietnamese, but no one would answer me because they didn't understand. I'd ask about my birth mother so often that my new parents told me she had died. I cried myself to sleep every night until I was eight or nine. My adoptive family were dysfunctional and home life was tough.At 15, my adoptive mother died.After that, I was going through my adoptive father's filing cabinet(橱柜)and I found an old letter, with a Vietnamese postmark. I felt delighted as I realized it was from my birth mum. Straight away, I wrote a long letter to the address she had given, explaining who I was and asking if Can was alive.Soon after, I got a simple fax back, saying, "Mother still alive, very happy to hear from you." My heart soared as I read her words. For the next few years, I exchanged letters with her and was thrilled to finally have contact with her. I was so gratefulfor that.24.Why did the author's mum begin to sob in Paragraph 1?A.Because she felt excited when hugging her children.B.Because her children were going on holiday.C.Because her children were leaving her.D.Because her whole body was shaking.25. How was the author's adoptive life?A.Hard.B.Happy.C.Easy.D.Free.26. What was the possible reason for Can's failing to contact the author?A.Can didn't like the author.B.Can didn't know where the author was.C.Can was dead.D.Can was not allowed to contact the author.27. How did the author feel when she read her mum's words?A.Upset.B.Excited.C.Lonely.D.Moved.CDo you want to find a job that you just need to sit and sleep on a sofa? It is ridiculous, but it happens. 26-year -old Anna Cherdantseva, from the city of Ufa, is a full-time sofa tester, spending up to 10 hours every day trying out new sofas for comfort and safety.Last month, Russian furniture giant MZ5 Group announced that it was taking application for a new position-full time sofa tester, Although all new products are tested in a specialized laboratory, management decided that in order to better meetthe needs of consumers it needed some feedback on real -life use of its sofas. In just a few days, MZ5 received over 5,000 job applications from people eager to spend most of their time sitting and lying on sofas.""We were selecting candidates in several stages, " MZ5 Group spokesperson Anastasia Russkih said, "Initially we checked their resumes(简历), and then we let them tell us why they wanted the job." Eventually, the furniture company shortlisted just 7 candidates, among whom Anna Cherdantseva, a 26-year-old marketing expert, proved to be the most suitable for the job."I felt extreme competition, and it was a real fight for my dream job," Anna said after getting selected.

I believe it will all work out between me and the sofas."Despite describing herself as an active person, Cherdantseva says that spending about 10hours a day sitting on sofas doesn't sound bad at all.

That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings. They show that individuals(个人) who live or work in low levels of light overnight(整夜) can develop clinical depression. Doctors use the word "clinical depression" to describe severe form of depression. Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities, low energy levels and thoughts of death or suicide.In the new study, American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters(仓鼠)to different colors. The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and are active at night.The animals were separated into four groups. One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period. Another group was placed in front of a blue light, a third group slept in front of a white light, while a fourth was put in front of a red light.After four weeks, the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank. They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.Randy Nelson heads the Department of Neuroscience at Ohio State University. He says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed. "What we saw is that these animals didn't show any sleep uneasiness(不安) at allbut they did mess up biological clock genes and they did show depressive sign while if they were in the dim(微弱)red light, they did not."Randy Nelson notes that photosensitive(感光)cells in the eyes have little to do with eyesight. He says these cells send signals to the area of the brain that controls what has been called the natural sleep-wake cycle.He says there's a lot of blue in white light. This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.32.Researchers use hamsters in the experiment because .A.they are similar to humans in dealing with colorsB.they are easy to observe and studyC.they are sensitive to colors like human beingsD.they are active at night and sleep during the day33.
