Americana Inn Neighbourhood: MidtownClean as in clinical, central as in a few blocks from Times Sq.,cheap as in two-digit rates (often), the Americana is not the home-away-from-home you may dream of, but it gets you the .Guide price from US $140Hotel Chelsea Neighbourhood: Chelsea New Yorks number one rock nroll,bohemian(波西米亚)sleeping quarters, the Chellea Hotel, has been immortalized(永生的)in songs by the likes of Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen.

Why do many people know the Washington Jefferson Hotel? A.Because the owner is a famous man. B.Because the hotel is very expensive. C.Because the hotel is located in New York.

I thought that it was a big joke, I soon found however that it was all very real. He was gone, he was my favorite television character and really the only conservationist that I really liked to watch. What Steve Irwin accomplished in his lifetime will probably never be outdone by anybody else. I dont think that there has ever been a person that has done so much, not only for his country but also for the education of the public in regards to animal conservation. Steve Irwin was a true Australian, he was born into a family of conservationist so I think that it was only natural that he would follow in his parentsfootsteps. The first time he wrestled a crocodile he was nine years old(under his fathers supervision of course) and he soon soon went on to capture crocodiles that ended up in over populated areas. He did his work for free with the agreement that all the crocodiles that he captured could be taken to the Australia Zoo(a family owned zoo). He started to appear on television and that was when he started to win the hearts and minds of the people. His love and enthusiasm for the animals he worked with soon won the public over. One thing that I always greatly appreciated about him was the fact that he would tell about the animal. Instead of going into how the crocodile or whatever evolved over millions of years and so on, he would point out interesting features and then release him back into the wild. The whole time he would actually entertain you, not bore you like so many of the television programs on animal plant. Since his death, there have been many things done in his honor, but I believe that what we can do to best remember him and what he lived for, would be to love and take care of the natural world around us. 24. What did Steve Irwin do as the Crocodile Hunter? A.He took crocodiles away from over populated areas. B.He hunted crocodiles to protect people. C.He captured crocodiles for the zoo. D.He taught people about crocodiles on TV. 25.The author greatly appreciated Steve Irwin because_. A. he had great talent in entertaining the public B. he gave audiences good knowledge of evolution C. he told audiences interesting facts of animals D. He talked like a professional TV host. 26. How did people feel watching Steve Irwins program? A. Fascinated. B. Bored. C. Puzzled. D. Frightened 27. What could be the authors purpose of writing the text? A. To raise peoples awareness of animal protection. B. To show his respect to a person. C. To describe the life story of a person. D. To show his sorrows at the death of a loved person. C Jeans have become one of the most worn pieces of clothing in the world. Everybody wears them, from the rural farmer to the urban lawyer and from models to housewives. But why have jeans become so popular. Youll get many answers. For some people they look cool, for others jeans are simply comfortable. Jeans were first designed as trousers for farm workers and miners in the state of the American west.A Nevada tailor,Jacob Davis, had the idea of using copper bolts(铜制铆钉)at the corner of the pockets to make them stronger.They became popular at once and soon many people bought them. At first jeans were worn only by workers, especially in factories. In the east of the US jeans were hardly worn at all. But when rich easterners went on holidays to escape everyday life they often put on jeans. James Dean and Marlon Brando made them popular in movies and everyone wanted to wear them.The new trousers were once not allowed to wear in American schools and sometimes in theaters and cinemas. But as time goes on jeans have become more acceptable and today they are worn not only as ordinary clothes but also at formal events. Other countries quickly started to get used to wearing jeans too. Americans in Europe and Japan often wore them when they were not on duty to show that they were Americans. The trousers showed the world a happier way of life, something that people needed. Today jeans are an important part of our lives.28.Jeans were first made for_.A.models B. housewives C.farm workers D. Urban lawyers29. Who made the first jeans in the world?A.

Or you can buy small containers of organic matter with mushroom spores inside.You add water and put the container in a room at the correct temperature as directed.Then wait for your mushrooms to grow. The hunt for wild mushrooms has taken place throughout the world since ancient times.And, like most hunts, there is some danger.People have to be careful not to eat mushrooms that are poisonous. Until two-thousand years ago,mushrooms could be eaten only when they were found in the wild.Then the Chinese began to grow the Chinese black Mushroom.These mushrooms are popular for their taste and because they are easy to grow.They grow naturally in warm areas of China and Japan as well. 32.How long is the growing season of mushrooms?A.

But to our surprise, he came back just abut half an hour late. I asked him what was the matter. He smiled and told us about the funny thing who had happened in the cinema.
