should stay at Ice Hotel in Quebec, Canada. But, you can only check in at this hotel during the winter.
Why ? Because this hotel is built every December. It has 32 rooms and 80 people can stay there each
night. The hotel even has a movie theatre, art gallery, and church. Of course, all of these parts of the hotel
are made of ice. In fact, all the furniture, art, lights, and even plates and drinking glasses are made out of
ice.
Because this hotel is so unusual, it is becoming very popular. People from all over the world come to
the Ice Hotel to look at the fantastic ice art, drink and eat from designed ice dishes and experience the
unique atmosphere (独特的气氛). Some couples have even got married in the hotel"s ice church. But
all these guests keep their winter coats on! Because of all the ice, the temperature inside the hotel is
always between - 2?C and - 5?C. Surprisingly, sleeping is not a problem in the freezing cold hotel rooms. Every guest gets a special cold-weather sleeping bag and some fur blankets. These keep the room cozy
and warm until morning.

D. The services of the Ice Hotel

environmental influence. But with increasing numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness,
it is becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively(不引人注目地) and leave no mark.
Wild camping is not permitted in many places, particularly in crowded lowland Britain. Wherever you
are, find out about organizations responsible for managing wild spaces, and contact them to find out their
policy on camping and shelter building. For example, it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland,
but in England you must ask the landowner"s permission, except in national parks.
Camping is about having relaxation, sleeping outdoors, experiencing bad weather, and making do
without modern conveniences. A busy, fully-equipped campsite（野营地)seems to go against this, so
seek out smaller, more remote places with easy access to open spaces and perhaps beaches. Better still,
find a campsite with no road access: walking in makes a real adventure.
Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good night"s sleep. Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment. Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather than creating a new spot. When camping in woodland, avoid standing
dead trees, which may fall on a windy night. Avoid animal runs and caves, and possible homes of biting
insects. Make sure you have most protection on the windward side. If you make a fire, do so downivind
of your shelter. Always consider what influence you might have on the natural world. Avoid damaging
plants. A good campsite is found, not made-changing it should be unnecessary.
B. most parts of Scotland
C. crowded lowland Britain
D. most parts of England
B. used previously
C. with modern conveniences
D. far away from beaches
B. building a campfire
C. camping in woodland
D. finding a campsite with privacy
B. the importance of wild camping
C. the human influence on campsites
D. the dos and don"ts of wild camping
however, from the time they are six years old "know" that they want to be doctors or teachers or
firefighters, but most of us do not get around to making a decision about a job until someone or
something forces us to face the problem.
Choosing a job takes time, and there are a lot of things you have to think about as you try to
decide what you would like to do. You may find that you will have to take special courses for a
particular kind of work, or you may find out that you will need to get enough knowledge for a
particular job.
Fortunately, there are a lot of people you can turn to for advice and help in making your decision.
At most schools, there are teachers to give you information about jobs. And you can talk over your
ideas with family members and friends who are always ready to listen and to offer suggestions.

阅读下面短文，根据1至3小题的具体要求，简要回答问题。
travel from all over the world to Switzerland to compete. Teams sculpt for sixty- five hours over five days. Each team hopes that when the time is up, its sculpture will be judged the best.
As the championship begins, the fourteen teams are faced with huge blocks of snow that weigh twenty
tons each. The sculptors bring out their favorite tools that work best on the hard iced snow, but they are
not allowed to employ tools that use electricity.
Most teams are inspired by what they have seen in daily life. For example, one team carved a teapot
with tea pouring out. Another team sculpted a little cat on its hind feet(后脚) reaching into a fish bowl
complete with water ripples(涟漪) and a crab(螃蟹)trying to attack the cat. In 2006, Team USA
sculpted a golden dog looking at its image reflected in a mirror. To create the effect that the little dog saw
its reflection in the glass, the artists carved two dogs facing each other with their paws(脚爪) touching.
As the final hours of the competition tick by, exhausted team members add last-minute details. They
use small brooms to brush off snow caught in tiny holes. One team member counts down the last five
minutes while others are busy cleaning up the tools. If they leave any tools behind, they will be out. When
the whistle blows, everyone must step away from the sculpture. The judges then vote on creativity,
technical skills, and visual impact(视觉效果)of the designs.
In 2006, Team USA took first place for their golden dog sculp-ture titled "Discovery". But the
competition is not just about medals and ribbons. "It"s not about the prize," said Rob Neyland, Team USA"s captain. "It"s about touching the audience.” Every year, as the championship ends, each team is
already dreaming of the next masterpiece it will design.

a positive activity for world peace and is intended to build up a global sense of brotherhood and friendship through laughter. The first "World Laughter Day" gathering took place in Mumbai, India, on 11th January
1998. 12,000 members from India and international Laughter Clubs attended it. Now there are over 5,000 Laughter Clubs worldwide on all 5 continents.
"HAPPY-DEMIC" was the first World Laughter Day gathering outside India. It took place on 9th
January 2000. In Copenhagen, Denmark , more than 10,000 people gathered at Town Hall Square. The
event went into Guinness Book of World records. "World Laughter Day" is now organized on the first
Sunday of May every year. Hundreds of people gather worldwide on that
day to laugh together.Today, many people fear widespread international terrorism. The world has never faced so much
unrest before. People are at war within themselves. Laughter is a universal language, which has the ability
to unite humanity without religion. Laughter can build a common connection between various religions and create a new world order. The idea may sound over-ambitious (野心太大的), and maybe it is. But
maybe it is not. It is our deep belief that laughter and only laughter can unite the world, building up a
global sense of brotherhood and friendship.
Studies also say that laughter helps your body do the following: lower blood pressure; lighten
depression; reduce stress; work out the heart, especially for those who are unable to perform physical
exercise. So in life, when you can laugh, you should laugh loudly and with your entire body-because it"s
good for you.
