In order to promote participation in outdoors exercise, our school organized an activity to climb a mountain on April 10. The majority of my class took part in the activity.
Early in the morning, having gathered outside the school gate, we head straight to the thickly-forested mountain. We set out for the top and were in high spirits the moment when we arrived at the foot of the mountain. In course of the climb, we cooperated with each other to pass the rocky area. Laughing and cheered, we eventually reached the top, which we were greeted by the bright sunshine and fresh air. Viewing from the top, the city was beautiful. Bathed in the sunshine, we entertained us with songs, dances and game.
This event is extremely beneficial and we strongly suggest that similar events are held every year!

There is one thing that can ruin vacations, make business meetings less than successful, and can cause more problems than anything else for air travelers. Jet lag!
1.The travel time is too fast for the human body to adjust easily. Long distance air travel to a new time zone disrupts (打乱) three important senses: the sense of place, the sense of time, and the sense of well-being.
Sense of place: To some degree, all locations are geographically and even chemically different from one another. Humans, like all living things, have a strong sense of place. 2.
Sense of time: We all also have a natural sense of time that is linked to our sense of place. Our bodies function on a program that takes about a day to run.3.This is why travel to a distant time zone makes us miss the usual hometown patterns of something as simple as the times of sunrise and sunset.
Sense of well-being: We have a sense of well-being when we are healthy and happy. 4.That is why flying to a new environment and time zone often causes a disruption in our sense of well-being.
For thousands of years, people didn’t experience disruption in their sense of time and place because there were no rapid means of transportation.5. However, although we can travel by plane now, our bodies have not yet adapted to long-distance air travel. That is why we suffer the jet lag.
A.The invention of the airplane changed all this.
B.We can make the effort to overcome the jet lag.
C.They sense the different qualities of dawn, noon, and midnight.
D.Jet lag results from traveling a long distance to a new zone.
E.This sense is strongly connected to our senses of place and time.
F.It took weeks, months, years, or even generations to travel great distances.
G.This makes people homesick for familiar surroundings and wish for their own bed
Looking out across the city and on top of the tall buildings before you are cows. Yes, you read that right. Farm animals are eating grass on high-rise urban farms on top of high buildings in London. Elsewhere, off the coast of mainland England, against the background of extremely beautiful White Cliffs of Dover, a wonderful pod (吊舱) structure forms part of floating city. This is how we will live 100 years from now — if a group of UK experts to be believed.
Temporary housing pods, underwater cities and 3D-printed houses will also help reduce the burden of overpopulation and inner city living-space shortages. Building with their own microclimates and cities built in the skies are also among the amazing achievements of future engineering predicted by experts.
But not only today’s architects continue to advance towards the clouds, building higher and higher, as engineering advances allow, but we’ll also be headed deep below ground. Meanwhile, the future will feature city-spanning (跨城市) bridges. Want to travel to Mars quickly? No problem — the experts are predicting spaceports (宇航基地) will become common places, so future generations will be able to head over to their local station and hitch (搭顺风车) the next ride.
The predictions were heavily focused on water - based architecture and present problems such as overpopulation, global warming and rising sea levels. Using the future tech predictions, 2,000 people were then surveyed to see which of the suggestions they thought — and hoped — would become a reality by 2115. Topping the survey was super-deep basement buildings complete with hotels, restaurants, green space, swimming pools and gyms. The survey also found that one in three respondents (调查对象) considered floating sea cities — which could use solar and tidal (潮汐的) energy — as a choice for future development.
1.The first paragraph is meant to ______.
A.present the topic B.make a comment
C.give an example D.draw a conclusion
2.The second paragraph mainly talks about ______.
A.different kinds of building structures.
B.recent development of building structures.
C.means to control the increase of population.
D.future building structures helping to solve the lack of living space.
3.The underlined phrase “local station” refers to ______.
A.air station B.traveling agency
C.spaceport D.traveling destination
4.What did people surveyed consider most practical?
A.City-spanning bridges B.Deep underground buildings
C.Floating sea cities D.slightly-deep basements
Christmas at the mountain cline would have to wait. The banks beside Mary Breckinridge’s Wendover, Kentucky, clinic were ruined after a heavy rain. She had to find a way to get her five patients to the hospital in Lexington.
With a neighbor’s help, Mary and the nurses built a boat. They named it Ambulance, and on the morning of December 30,1926. Mary another nurse, and the patients set off down the river. After sixteen wild miles on the dangerous river, they arrived at the train station in Krypton. As she watched the train pull away with her patients safely on board. Mary smiled and waved.
Mary had not planned to be a nurse. She was the daughter of a wealthy Kentucky politician. As a child, Mary was influenced by her family who had always been concerned about the poorer people of the state. When she grew up, Mary was inspired to become a nurse. So in 1925 Mary hired a few British-trained nurses and, with some money from her family, started the Frontier Nursing Service in Wendover, Kentucky.
Before Mary and her nurses came, the mountain people lived a hard life. Families made so little money that they could not afford doctors or medicine. Many children had diseases and nearly every person was malnourished for lack of food.
Mary and the nurses built clinics and a small hospital deep in the forests of Leslie County. There were no paved roads, electricity, or telephones. Each day the nurses rode on horseback to outlying farms, often in bad wenther, to answer calls for help. They worked hard to keep an eye on their patients.
To the grateful mountain people, Mary and the nurses seemed to be everywhere. They treated everything from cut fingers to pneumonia (肺炎), gave shots, and delivered babies. The proud countrymen liked the nurses because they treated everyone with respect.
The Frontier Nursing Service grew. Today their Nursing Service reaches far beyond the Kentucky mountains. Medical professionals from all over the world come to Wendover to study rural health care in action. When these men and women go back to their own countries, they are prepared to help people in need.
