Elephant Reserve

Country: Thailand

This is a working vacation at a wildlife centre. Anyone can become a volunteer if he/she agrees to help the elephant keepers with tasks.

Daily tasks

Gather the elephants at 6:30 am. Take them to look for food in the forest. Clean the enclosure(围场). Swim with the elephants in the lake in the afternoon. If volunteers want to relax after work, they can watch satellite television.

How this vacation helps

If these elephants hadn’t been rescued, they would still be living on the streets of Bangkok. The rural environment is much better for them than the urban environment where there is lots of pollution.

Your Comment

“I love working with these huge gentle animals.”

Gorilla safari(观赏野兽的旅行)

Countries: Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda

Departures(出发): 2—3 departures per month from Aug. to Dec.

Extras: permit 220

If you’re lucky, you’ll see lions, elephants and rhinos during this safari. The highlight(最好的部分) of the trip is the opportunity to see gorillas in the mountain forests. However, you must be in good health — if a gorilla caught a cold, it would be extremely harmful to its whole family.

How this vacation helps

There are only about 600 gorillas left in the world as human activity has reduced the area where they can live. When you buy a permit, this will pay for the protection of the national park.

Your comment

“I’ll surely go back as soon as I have enough money!”

Polar bear watching

Area & Country: Arctic, Canada

Departures: sixty trips between Oct. 1—Nov.19.

Every October and November groups of polar bears gather in Hudson Bay. As they are normally lonely creatures, this is unusual. The bears wait for the ocean to freeze so that they can hunt for seals, so this is the perfect opportunity to see them. Extra activities include dog sledding(狗拉雪橇) and a night trip to see the Northern Lights.

How this vacation helps

If the Arctic ice cap melts due to global warming, polar bears will be in danger. We give a share of our profits(利益) to the charity that protects polar bears.

Your comment

“These terrible bears get all the liquid they need from their food.”

    We’ve heard of robots and AIArtificial Intelligencetaking human jobs, but I bet mayors(市长)don’t really think their jobs can be threatened any time soon. They were wrong, and the AI running for the mayor of a Tokyo district was clear proof of that.

AI can’t legally run for high-ranking public management positions yet, but one mayoral candidate from Tama City, Tokyo, intended to maximize the use of artificial intelligence in running city affairs. He was running his campaign (竞选运动) as “AI Mayor”. Basically, he was suggesting replacing human public officials with AI and having them collect city data and create fair and balanced policies that will benefit everyone.

“For the first time in the world, AI will run in an election,” human candidate Michihito Matsuda announced on Twitter. “Artificial Intelligence will change Toma City. With the birth of an AI Mayor, we will conduct balanced politics.”

The AI Mayor was campaigning very much like its human competitors. Posters were shown all over Tama City and campaign trucks were blaring out(大声鸣响)promises of an AI utopia (乌托邦)and asking for support.

Some people called Michihito Matsuda’s campaign a stunt (噱头), as a human would still be the one legally in charge. However, others said that they were excited about the future of AI running things in the background, adding that it had to be a better choice.

1.What’s the advantage of the AI mayor according to Michihito Matsuda?

A.Maximizing the use of AI. B.Replacing human officials.

C.Creating balanced policies. D.Bringing him beneficial effects.

2.How will AI run for the mayor?

A.It will abolish many old policies.

B.It will ask for support on the Internet.

C.It will make public speeches, dressed like a human.

D.It will compete similarly to human competitors.

3.What’s the citizens’ attitude toward Michihito Matsuda’s campaign?

A.They believe AI will win. B.All consider it to be tricky.

C.It is supposed to be a failure definitely. D.Some think it’s worthy of expectation.

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A.AI Runs for the Mayor. B.The Advantages of AI.

C.AI Replaces Human in Management. D.The Patterns of AI Management.

    It is widely believed that smiling means a person is happy, and it usually occurs when they're meeting another person or a group of people. However, a new study led by the body language expert Dr. Harry Witchel shows this isn't always the case.

In his research, he asked 44 participants aged 18-35 to play a geography quiz game consisting of nine difficult questions so that they often got the answer wrong. Participants seated interacted with a computer alone in a room while their faces were video recorded.

After the quiz, the participants were asked to rate their experience using a range of 12 emotions including “bored”, “interested” and “frustrated”. Meanwhile, their facial expressions were then computer analysed frame by frame in order to judge how much they were smiling based on a scale of between 0 to 1.

Dr Witchel said: “According to some researchers, a real smile reflects the inner state of cheerfulness or amusement. However, behavioral ecology theory suggests that all smiles are tools used in social interactions, meaning cheerfulness is neither necessary nor rich for smiling. Our study showed that in these human-computer interaction experiments, smiling isn't driven by happiness; it is associated with subjective involvement(主观参与),which acts like a social fuel for smiling, even when socializing with a computer on your own.”

Surprisingly, participants didn't tend to smile during the period when they were trying to figure out the answers. However, they did smile right after the computer game informed them if their answer was correct or wrong. Participants smiled more often when they got the answer wrong. Dr. Witchel added: “During these computerized quizzes, smiling was greatly increased just after answering questions incorrectly. This behavior could be explained by self-ratings of engagement, rather than by ratings of happiness or frustration.”

1.Why did Dr Witchel use difficult questions in the quiz game?

A.To make it hard for participants to answer them correctly.

B.To make the answer period last as long as possible.

C.To discover the most intelligent participants.

D.To create a stressful situation for participants deliberately.

2.What can we infer from idea of Behavioral Ecology Theory?

A.Other researchers' opinion of a real smile is quite right.

B.Smiles aren't necessarily useful tools in social interactions.

C.It is not associated with subjective engagement.

D.Smiling is usually connected with social activities.

3.What do we know about the text?

A.Participants were asked to interact with each other in the quiz.

B.Participants in the quiz smiled less often when they got the answer wrong.

C.In Dr Witchel's opinion, smiling is connected with subjective involvement.

D.Dr Witchel thinks that a real smile reflects the inner state of cheerfulness.

4.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.What Contributes to Real Happiness? B.How to Identify Whether a Person Is Really Happy?

C.Smiling Doesn't Necessarily Mean Happiness D.People Generally Hold a Wrong View on Happiness

    Your teacher hands back a test and you did poorly. At this moment, you wish you could hide from the world. 1. But according to a research, what’s more important is how you react in the long term. Scientists say students can be divided into two groups. The first, called “mastery-oriented learners” view poor results as challenges to do better in the future. The second, called “helpless learners” will respond just by giving up.

2. But surprisingly, this attitude is even more important than a student’s natural intelligence. However smart, eventually you’ll come across question you cannot answer. When you do, it’s important not to fall victim to helplessness. Learned helplessness was first discovered in an experiment where some dogs suffered from electrical shocks they couldn’t escape from. Later, their feeling of helplessness was so strong that they made no attempt to escape even when they could.

So what makes you a different learner? 3. Mastery-oriented learners believe hard work is the key to success. Faced with failure, they simply conclude they need to try harder. However, helpless learners believe intelligence is inborn. 4. Thus, when they have difficulties they conclude they are not smart enough and that improving on their intelligence isn’t possible.

If you want to be a mastery-oriented person, you can. 5. If you think you can do better, keep trying and the results will surely follow.

A.Start by not letting negative results discourage you.

B.It’s feeling many students are familiar with.

C.It all comes down to your idea of intelligence.

D.That’s because you should have worked hard.

E.Whether you’re intelligent, ambition counts.

F.To them, success in school seems to rely on natural talent and ability.

G.As you would expect, the first group performs better than the second.

阅读下面短文, 根据所给情节进行续写, 使之构成一个完整的故事。

Robert and Henry were two friends in the same class. They always played together and went home together. One day Robert and Henry were going home from school, when, on turning a corner, Robert cried out, “A fight! Let’s go and see!”

“No,” said Henry. “Let us go quietly home and not meddle with(插手) this quarrel. We have nothing to do with it and may get into mischief(trouble). Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together at home and I don’t want them to worry about me. ”

“You are a coward, and afraid to go,” said Robert, and off he ran. Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went to school as usual.

But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward, and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and didn’t want to play with him together.

Henry was sad but he wasn’t angry with Robert for his rude behavior, because he learned that true courage is shown most in bearing misunderstanding when it was not deserved, and that he ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong. Thus, he just ignored the other boys’ laughter and continued to go to school and study as well. However, Robert didn’t invite Henry to go home with him anymore. Instead, he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward. Every day after school, they didn’t go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun.

A few days later, Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river, and got out of his depth. He struggled, and screamed for help, but all in vain. The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could, but they did not even try to help him.

1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
