A city without cars would be very strange, right? Venice is such a city. Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It isn’t built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is every where around the city. Even So, travel isn’t difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can take you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy cool summer nights while they are taking boating trips. Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.

We are living in a time when the globe is becoming a “village”. People travel around the world for sightseeing, studying, working or volunteering. Perhaps in the near future, you will also become one of those people.
Spending time in a foreign country is an exciting and life-changing experience. You see different scenery, taste exotic (异国的) food and meet people with various backgrounds. And the most important thing of all, you explore and even become a part of the local culture.
Your stereotypes (成见) are broken down. You find French people are not always “romantic”. Americans don’t eat McDonalds all the time. And you won’t get malaria (疟疾) from a mosquito (蚊子) bite in Africa.
However, culture shock may hit you. Things you take for granted (想当然) at home may no longer be that way in a foreign country. Not every body thinks like you or does things the way you’ve always done. Their tea tastes different. They don’t talk excitedly in restaurants. Some people do not care much about your life, so you may even feel they are a little cold. It is not better or worse. It is just different. What you can do is to take in the differences, while trying to be respectful and humble (谦虚的). You open up your mind a little more each time, you become a better person.
任务1：阅读短文（B），根据英文释义及首字母提示拼写单词。

Have you ever taken photos by using mobile phones with selfie sticks(自拍杆)?1.
However, a pair of US artists from New Mexico, Arie Snee and Justin Crowe believe they have invented a better one and they call it “selfie arm”.

Many people keep small fish as pets. They keep them in a tank (水槽) of water. The tank is made of clear glass. People can look through it. They can see inside the tank and watch the fish.
The fish need room. They must not be crowded. Fish need oxygen to breathe. Fish get it from water in the tank. There must be enough water for all fish. So the size of the tank is important. In the tank many people put small plants that are good for fish. They give oxygen to the water. Plants help in other ways, too. Fish can nibble (轻咬) on the plants. They hide among the plants and sleep, lay eggs there. The plants need light. Most fish need light, too. The tank may be put near a window. It will get light there. Another place might be better, though. A window may let cold air in. The water in the tank may get too cold. The fish may die because cold water can kill them. So can hot water. The temperature must be just right. The fish must be kept in water all the time. Some fish can jump high. They may jump out of the tank. The tank should be covered. This keeps the fish from jumping out.
The fish need food and they should be fed every day. Giving them too much food is bad. The extra (额外的) food will fall to the bottom and make the water dirty. However, the fish should get just enough food. They should finish the food in 10 minutes. Nothing should be left. When this pens. the amount (数量) of food is right.
