In the most southern part of our planet, there's a place that's covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的) place on the Earth.
As the world's least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. In 1983, China joined the Antarctic Treaty (《南极条约》). The treaty made Antarctica a peaceful place for member countries to do scientific research. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look at the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology.
Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen food which can be heated easily is people's daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Therefore, scientists often eat dried or canned vegetables.
Sleep is also troublesome. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this period, Antarctica points to the sun and receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create “night”.
Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force(七级以上的)winds.Sometimes the wind is even stronger than a typhoon.It can easily blow people away.So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations.People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in forceful winds.
What's more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones.
Although it is challenging(挑战) to work in Antarctica, scientists' passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land.

(1)、Scientists from China go to Antarctica to _____.

A、find out ways to control water pollution B、research climate change and marine biology C、grow plants and vegetables in special condition D、stop the hunters from killing the marine biology
(2)、In order to sleep well in Antarctica, the scientists have to _____.

A、wear more clothes to keep warm B、cover the windows with black cloth C、connect research stations with ropes D、eat more fried and canned vegetables
(3)、We can replace (替换) the underlined word passion in the last paragraph with       .

A、strong love B、full preparation C、pleasant introduction D、amazing imagination
(4)、The passage is mainly about       .

A、view of the Antarctica B、exploring the Antarctica C、how to survive in the Antarctica D、climate changes of the Antarctica

DEALING, WTTH FEELING

DISAPPOINTED

Disappointment happens when something you're hoping or wanting to happen doesn't end up happening. Disappointment is a feeling that you can feel about yourself or toward others. Read below to find out how you can start dealing with feeling disappointed!

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Disappointment is not a good feeling. It especially hurts because of the excitement and happiness that you were feeling before. It's OK to feel sad and hurt when something you really hope for doesn't happen. Allow yourself to feel, instead of trying to pretend that it doesn't hurt or acting like you don't care. Disappointment will usually disappear if you are honest about how you are feeling. 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Talking about feelings is always helpful. When you are disappointed, you share how you are feeling with the person who disappointed you or with a close friend or family member. Sometimes it's helpful for people to know how their actions made you feel so that they try not to do it again. When you share your feelings, others can also help you feel better.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

Though you might be disappointed, can you think of any positives in the situation? When you are disappointed, it can be easy to only focus on all the bad things or to think about all the time when you've been let down in the past. Sometimes it can be helpful to say, "I'm disappointed, but at least..." and then think of something positive to say, you can think of all the things you do well. Remember, everyone makes mistakes, nobody is perfect. 

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

What can you do to keep from feeling so disappointed next time? Sometimes, it can be helpful to have a backup plan because what you're really wishing for may not happen sometimes. For example, if you're supposed to go to the park, but it looks like it might rain, you could say, "I'm really excited about going to the park, but if it rains, I'll be OK." And then you think of other fun things to do instead, just in case!

为每一小段选择合适的副标题,有一个多余选项。

A. Look at the positives

B. Stop thinking of your past

C. Share how you are feeling

D. Prepare a backup plan

E. Accept how you're feeling

根据文章选择正确答案。

What can we know about disappointment from the passage? {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A. It's not a bad feeling, but it may hurt us.

B. It happens when something we hope comes true.

C. We may feel disappointed with ourselves as well as others.

D. We may feel disappointed when we are not honest with ourselves.

请从文本中选择适当的单词,完成以下小结。每空仅限一词。

It's easy for us to feel disappointed, but it may not naturally {#blank#}6{#/blank#} unless you try to deal with it. Being {#blank#}7{#/blank#} to your own feeling is the start of facing the problem. If others disappointed you, you need to let them know their {#blank#}8{#/blank#} made you feel like this. Try to think in a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} way when you have the feeling of disappointment about yourself. Don't forget that you may need another possible {#blank#}10{#/blank#}, for a result you don't want.

①Millions of people around the world cook their food on fire every day.People must spend lots of money on cooking fuel.However,there is a much easier and cheaper way to cook using energy from the sun.

②Solar cookers have been used for centuries.A Swiss scientist made the first solar cooker in 1777.Today,people are using solar cookers in many countries around the world.People use them to cook food and to heat drinking water.

③There are three kinds of solar cookers.The first is a box cooker.It is designed with a special wall that collects sunshine into the box.A box cooker is good for slow cooking of a lot of food.

④The second kind of solar cooker is a panel cooker.It has several flat walls that collect the sunshine onto the food.People can build panel cookers quickly.They do not cost much.In Kenya,for example,panel cookers cost just two dollars.

⑤The third kind of solar cooker is a parabolic(抛物线的) cooker.It has rounded walls that collect sunlight into the bottom of the cooker.Food is cooked quickly in parabolic cookers.However,these cookers are hard to make.They must be moved again and again to follow the sun.Parabolic cookers can also cause burns and eye injuries if they are not used correctly.

⑥You can make solar cookers from boxes or heavy paper.They will not catch fire.Paper burns at 232℃.A solar cooker never gets hotter than that.Solar cookers cook food at low temperatures over long time.This allows people to cook food and do other things at the same time.
