    Recently I had a trip to Sydney with my parents. We visited the Wildlife Park.

    The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals. Some are native(当地的) to Australia and can only be found there. There are more than 500 animals there, including kangaroos, koalas(考拉) and crocodiles(鳄鱼). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo. In zoos, most of the animals are in cages.

    We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We could touch and feed them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there too. They looked very cuddly(令人想拥抱的). Although we couldn't carry koalas, I could take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir(纪念品) of my holiday inSydney.

    The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater and saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are very big and scary(吓人的) with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them.

    There was also a bird show. The keepers(饲养者) showed us different species(种类) of birds. I saw an old parrot. It could "talk" and made a great impression on me.

    I enjoyed the trip very much. There was so much to see.

The Sahara Desert in Northern Africa is the largest hot desert in the world. It is about 1,800km from the north to the south and about 4,800 km from the east to the west. Temperatures can reach 58℃ in the daytime and can fall to ﹣6℃ at night. More than 8,000 years ago,the Sahara was a rich land where farmers grew food and plants grew well. As the rainfall in the area gradually went down every year,it became a huge desert. Most areas of this desert have less than 13 cm of rain every year. 

Gary Smith and a few of his brave friends decided to hike across the Sahara. Supporters in cars,who carried food and water for the group,stayed with them together. 

One day,Smith walked alone and then he couldn't find the rest of the group. Even worse,he could not find out which direction to go. Then a sandstorm covered the area. When the storm was over,Smith was even more worried. In the heat that he couldn't stand,he quickly finished his water. He had to spend that night out in the open,and he almost felt he couldn't survive (生存). 

The next day,he walked on. After the second night,he started to worry about dying. He realized that his friends might not find him in time. It was late on the third day that Smith lost his sense and fell over. 

When Smith awoke,he was in the car with his friends. He had been found by a group of Bedouin who were traveling in a truck. In such a large desert with the weather conditions, this made it possible for him to survive. Then Bedouin returned to his group of friends. Smith was so lucky. 

 下列短文, 然后从每小题所给的四个选项中, 选出能回答所提问题的最佳答案。

 If you are looking for a simple place to stay for a few nights, a capsule(胶囊) hotel might be a good choice. Providing small rooms and just a few basic services, these hotels can help people save lots of money.

 What do the rooms in capsule hotels look like? The rooms are usually the size of a bed. They are very small, but they have enough space for you to sit up on the bed. Rooms in capsule hotels are usually side by side and on top of one another. So, if you are staying on the top level, you have to use a ladder to climb into your room. There are also curtains( 帘布) for you when you' re sleeping. Although there's little you can do inside your room apart from ( 除了……还 ) sleeping, capsule hotels usually provide other services. Shared bathrooms and dining areas are available (可提供的) for you to use.

 The first capsule hotel appeared in Osaka, Japan in 1979. Many Japanese loved the idea, so more capsule hotels opened all over the country. From there, capsule hotels spread to several other countries such as India and Iceland. China has also seen a rise in the number of such hotels in recent years. And they are quite popular with young people.

 Many experts(专家) believe capsule hotels will become more popular as time goes by. What do you think?
