Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel, the world's first igloo(冰屋) hotel.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(build) in a small town, it has been attracting lots of visitors but soon the fun will be over. In two weeks' time, Bergqvst's ice creation{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(be) nothing more than a pool of water. "We don't see it as a big problem," he says. "We just look forward to{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(replace) it."

    Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was {#blank#}4{#/blank#}successful that he designed the present one, {#blank#}5{#/blank#}measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmen spent more than eight weeks —piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base; when the snow froze, the base{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(remove).

    After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. {#blank#}7{#/blank#}no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃, it may seem more like a survival test {#blank#}8{#/blank#}a relaxing hotel break. "It's great fun," Bergqvist explains, "as{#blank#}9{#/blank#} as a good start in survival training."

    The{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(popular)of the igloo is beyond doubt: it is now attracting tourists from all over the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms.

    Museums keep history alive. Well; museums have great importance for people who{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(enjoy) history, or who are very{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(interest) in one particular subject. There are art museums, railroad museums, dollhouse museums, and museums of history, or the history of a certain area. There are many, many other types as well. For people who love paintings by very popular artists, but are too poor to buy a painting, art museums are probably {#blank#}3{#/blank#}only place for them{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(see)an original, Picasso, for example. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (visit) museums is a {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (wonder) and popular tourist activity.{#blank#}7{#/blank#} you go to a new country, seeing some of the history described at a museum is interesting and even fun. Sometimes the museums are {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (attract) than the most famous places of interest.

    I {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(visit) a couple of large dams (水坝) so far, and seeing the historical information about how the dams {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (build) is fascinating(吸引人的) to me. Obviously, not all the people like the same kind of museums. But I am sure that you can find one you enjoy.

Body language is one of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} most powerful means of communication, often even more powerful than {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(speak) language. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} is possible to "read" others around us, even {#blank#}4{#/blank#}they do not want us {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(catch) their unspoken communication. Of course, body language can be misread, but many{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(gesture) and actions are universal. The most universal {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(face) expression is, of course, the smile—its function is to show happiness and put people {#blank#}8{#/blank#} ease. It does not always mean that we are {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(true) happy, however. Smiles around the world can be false, hiding other feelings like anger, fear or worry. There {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) unhappy smiles, such as when someone "loses face" and smiles to hide it. However, the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings.
