Then the plane took me and the others to Marambio base, in Antarctica from Rio Gallegos. During the fourhour trip in the_Hercules,_I was impressed by the ice around us.As I set foot in Antarctica for the first time in my life, a rush of glory ran through me. The scientists on board told me about the ozone layer (臭氧层) and the British explorer Ernest Shackelton, the second man to set foot in Antarctica. I will never forget what I was told about the ozone layer. I was told it was getting thinner and thinner because of pollution and emission gases, which eventually would change the weather balance in the whole planet. I couldnt help feeling worried about the future of humans after I heard that.In Esperanza base there are elementary schools for kids. In Jubany base I saw igloos (拱形圆顶小屋) and it was interesting to learn that only scientists lived there. I was allowed to get near the Antarctic animals. The penguins are my favorite because they are cute and I like the way they stick out their heads in curiosity, the way they walk and how they survive in harsh temperatures. I also saw elephant seals, which from the distance looked like rocks.

Made up of two small terracotta (赤陶) domes and a metal tray, the device takes advantage of the natural heating ability of these materials, drawing heat from just four tealights placed inside it and releasing it in your living space.It may look basic in its shape, materials used and the fact that it has no fancy switches to fiddle with, but Egloo is actually 3Dprinted so its actually a lot more hightech than most electric heaters on the market today. At about seven inches wide and weighing just over two pounds, Egloo wont take up too much space, and can be easily moved around at any time. Just make sure you dont touch it directly, as it tends to get pretty hot.According to creator Marco Zagaria，“After only 30 minutes, the temperature of the environment surrounding the Egloo will be increased between 2 and 3 degrees Celsius.” Considering it runs on just four tealights, each with a burning time of about five hours, you can expect this little guy to make your room very warm and comfortable for just around 10 cents per day.Egloo started crowdfunded through an Indiegogo campaign last year, blowing past its initial (最初的) goal of $ 30,000 and raking in $ 262,513 by the end of the campaign. Its currently available for purchase via the Egloo website, for anywhere between $ 50 and $ 100, depending on size, color and glaze. Considering some users pay that much for heat every couple of weeks, the price seems very attractive.语篇解读：本文为说明文。一款小小的依靠茶烛的力量就能够加热的加热器问世，它小巧、成本低，深受欢迎。8What is unique concerning Egloo?AIt uses the power of tealights.BIt was developed by a student.CIts made with 3D printing technology.DNo fancy switches make it more attractive.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第三段中的“but Egloo is actually 3Dprinted”可知，它独特的地方在于它是3D打印的。9What should be cautious while using Egloo?AIts space. BWeight.CPrice. DTemperature.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第三段中的句子“Just make sure you dont touch it directly, as it tends to get pretty hot.”可知，在用茶烛时应该当心的是温度。10The fourth paragraph mainly develops_.Aby emphasizing the low cost of the EglooBby showing the high demand of the EglooCby listing the effectiveness of the EglooDby encouraging people to own the Egloo解析：选C推理判断题。第四段提到：只用三十分钟，它周围环境的温度就能够升高两三度；只用四个茶蜡大约五个小时，房间就非常暖和舒适，每天仅仅花费大约10美分。由此可知本段主要通过列举其有效性展开的。故选择C项。11What is peoples attitude towards the Indiegogo campaign last year?ACurious. BFavorable.CDoubtful. DOpposed.解析：选B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的句子“Egloo started crowdfunded through an Indiegogo campaign last year, blowing past its initial goal of $ 30,000 and raking in $ 262,513 by the end of the campaign.”可知，资金众筹的效果非常显著，公众非常支持，故选择B项。DResearchers say current exercise guidelines are unrealistic and argue that doctors should sometimes advise small increases in activity instead. They warn the 150minute weekly target is beyond the reach of some people particularly older individuals. And trying to reach these goals could mean the benefits of lighter exercise are overlooked. But public health officials say current recommendations have proven benefits in lowering the risk of heart disease.There is increasing evidence that inactivity is linked to heart disease, type 2 diabetes (糖尿病) and some types of cancer. UK guidelines for adults recommend at least twoandahalf hours of moderate activity a week, in short periods of 10 minutes or more.But in two separate articles in The BMJ, experts argue the message needs to change, with greater emphasis on making inactive people move more. Prof. Philipe de Souto Barreto at the University Hospital of Toulouse, advises people who are sedentary (久坐不动的) to make small increases in their activity levels rather than pushing to achieve current goals. He points to previous studies which show even short periods of walking or just 20 minutes of energetic activity a few times a month can reduce the risk of death, compared to people who do no exercise.In the second article, Prof. Philipe Sparkling of the Georgia Institute of Technology, says doctors should tailor their advice particularly for older patients. He suggests using GP visits for people over 60 to discuss “realistic options” to increase activity such as getting people to stand up and move during TV commercial breaks.Prof. Kevin Fenton at Public Health England says, “Everyone needs to be active every day short periods of 10 or more minutes of physical activity have proven health benefits, but getting 150 minutes or more of moderate activity every week is the amount we need to positively impact on a wide range of health conditions.” This includes reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes.12What is the current exercise goal mentioned in the passage?A10minute exercise.B20minute exercise.C60minute exercise.D150minute exercise.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第一段中的“They warn the 150minute weekly target is beyond the reach of some people particularly older individuals”及“And trying to reach these goals”可知，现行的锻炼目标是每周150分钟的运动量，故选D。13What can we learn from the second paragraph?A10minute exercise has little effect on the health.BHeart disease happens easily to the old in activity.CTwoandahalf hours of exercise is not necessary.DInactivity easily brings about many serious diseases.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句“There is increasing evidence that inactivity is linked to heart disease, type 2 diabetes (糖尿病) and some types of cancer”可知，不活动会引发很多疾病，故选D。14What is the suggestion of Prof. Philipe de Souto Barreto according to the third paragraph?APeople should spend less time on exercise.BPeople should lower their activity levels.CPeople should increase exercise properly.DPeople should achieve their current goals.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第三段的“Prof. Philipe de Souto Barreto .make small increases in their activity levels rather than pushing to achieve current goals”可知，Philipe de Souto Barreto教授建议人们要适当增加锻炼，故选C。15Which of the following is TRUE about current exercise guidelines?AThey are impractical.BThey are reasonable.CThey have no effect on us.DThey are popular with people.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句“Researchers say current exercise guidelines are unrealistic”可知，现行的锻炼指导原则并不实用，故选A。.阅读七选五(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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Some Ways to Develop the Life Skill of GratitudeWe all know that being grateful and appreciative is very beneficial, but have you ever thought of gratitude as one of the top life skills? _16_ Gratitude belongs to the category of advanced life skills because it can completely transform your life.Help others turn away from negativity.If some people you know persist in talking about negative things all the time, find a wise way to tell them that you really dont appreciate it. _17_Look for reasons to say thank you._18_Theyll be more likely to do nice things for you because you appreciate their efforts.
