The 19-year-old is now training for a 640-kilometre journey from the Antarctic coast to the South Pole. If he successfully makes the journey in 22 days as planned, he will break the speed record for the fastest trip from the continents coast to the South Pole on foot. He would also be the youngest male to reach the goal, although a younger female once did it in the past. Parker says he was encouraged by the opportunity to raise awareness about climate change, rather than pushing his own physical limits. Ben Saunders, the British explorer who recently made an expedition to the South Pole and back, is an inspiring influence in his physical preparation.Given that background and a training schedule involving two or three hours preparation a day, he might be expected to take a hiatus from his studies at Yale University. However, he is continuing his course in geology and geophysics, until he heads out to the Antarctic next month. While in Antarctica, he will be carrying out tests to help show how the climate is changing, including testing a lightweight weather station for the first time on the continent. Parker admitted feeling anxious about the journey, which he is carrying out with his partner Doug Stoup and is expected to plete in less than a month, but he said, “The best way to respond to pressure is to be as well-prepared as humanly possible.” 56. During the expedition, Parker Liautaud will _.A. have a tight schedule B. face all difficulties aloneC. cover 640 kilometres a day D. drive all the way by himself57.

In addition, the researchers found that children tend not to judge other children who wear glasses in terms of appearance, potential as a playmate, or likely athletic abilities. These findings may help fort children as theyre fitted for their first pair of glasses, Jeffrey Walline, an assistant professor at Ohio State University, suggested in a prepared statement. If the impression of looking smarter will appeal to a child, I would use that information and tell the child it is based on research. Most kids getting glasses for the first time care about how theyre going to look. Some kids simply refuse to wear glasses, which they think will make them unattractive, Walline said. The study included 42 girls and 38 boys, aged 6 to 10. Of those, 30 wore glasses, 34 had at least one sister or brother with glasses, and almost two-thirds had at least one parent who wore glasses. The participants were shown 24 pairs of pictures of children. The children in each pair of pictures differed by gender, and each pair of pictures included one child with glasses and one child without glasses. The children were asked a series of questions about each pair of photos. About two-thirds said children wearing glasses looked smarter than those without glasses, and 57 percent said children wearing glasses looked more honest. The childrens answers to other questions about who theyd rather play with, who looked better at sports, who looked more shy, and who was better looking werent enough for the researchers to draw any solid conclusions. What was clear was that the children didnt consider kids with glasses to be unattractive. 63. The passage mainly wants to tell us _.A. kids refuse to make friends with those wearing glassesB. kids think glasses make others look smart and honestC. most children in the United States have to wear glassesD. everybody in America wants to wear a pair of glasses64. Some children dont want to wear glasses because _.A. they think they will look uglyB. they have very good eyesightC. they dont want to be attractiveD. they will look much smarter65. The study was carried out by all of the following EXCEPT _.A. showing children some picturesB. making children wear glassesC. asking children some questionsD. choosing 80 children participants66. From the study, the researchers concluded that _.A. children know who will be their best playmateB. children can tell the shy kids from the braveC. children dont know how to answer questionsD. chilren dont think kids with glasses are uglyDStressed-out Singapore named its happiest person on Thursday at a conference that aimed to make people in the city-state feel better. Andy Goh, 35, the manager of a local engineering pany, was named Singapores Happiest Person. Whats his secret? “Happiness is not just money and staff, so youve got to count your blessings: health, family, friends, helping other people,” Goh said after receiving 200 dollars (148 US$) and a trip to the Thai resort island of Phuket.Philip Merry, chief executive of consulting firm Global Leadership Academy, began his search for Singapores most cheery people last month. The winner was announced at the end of the two-day New Science of Happiness and Well-Being Conference, organised by Merry and his wife. They found the problem that nine in ten people living in the city-state, Southeast Asias wealthiest economy, said they were stressed.The contest called for written papers, between 300 and 1,000 words, explaining why the candidate was a model of happiness, Merry said. Nominees（提名者） had to be 18 years or older. A surprising 207 entries were received, Merry said. I at first thought when we launched. are we going to get anybody? Not only did we get 207 stories but weve got such fantastic stories, he said. There are a lot of happy people that we just dont talk about or recognize.Nominees were cut down to four finalists including Zaibun Siraj, 61, a training adviser at a local pany. She recently published her own book, Zany, Zeal, Zest and Zing: The Z way to happiness. In the end, Zaibuns zaniness could not top Gohs simple prescription（处方）for feeling good. Look not too far, as its probably already close to you, the happiest man advised.67. The purpose of the contest of naming the happiest person is to _.A. attract more people to the conference on ThursdayB. raise money for the poor people all over the worldC. make people living in Singapore feel betterD. tell people in the world money is not everything68. The winner of “Singapores Happiest Person” will get _.A. a trip to the Thai resort island of PhuketB. the prize of two hundred US dollarsC. the secret of being a happy personD. a job in a local engineering pany69. Merry and his wife thought it was difficult to choose a happy person because _.A. nobody was interested in their contestB. it would cost too much money to do itC. there were too many people to chooseD. 9 in 10 people were living under pressure70.
