    Top lists are lecturing people on everything from"100 books to visit " to "100 books to read ".
    Aren't you just tired of being told what to do with your time?
    Now you have a list to end all lists!
    Take a look at the following two examples from the list of "101 things not to do":
    Swim with Dolphins（海豚）？
    Swimming with dolphins is one of the world’s most profitable tourist activities. However, every dolphin will welcome having their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming and pushing around them in the water. Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋桨).
    Here’s a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, but actually they’re just opening mouths.
    Go to See the Mona Lisa?
    There must be something about the mysterious(神秘的)smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can’t all be wrong, after all. But they can be quite annoying standing in front of you, holding up their cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds at most.
    If the mysterious lady in the picture knew her fate, she wouldn’t just be smiling, she’d be laughing.
    So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit www.not2dobeforeidie.co.uk and buy the book at a 20％ discount.

    A．is the world’s most popular tourist activity
    B．gives fun to both tourists and dolphins
    C．can cause danger to dolphins
    D．will make tourists busy and tired
    小题2:What does the author think about going to see the Mona Lisa?
    A．It is wrong to go and see the mysterious smile.
    B．Queuing for hours is worthwhile.
    C．Fifteen seconds in front of the painting is enough.
    D．It is not as satisfying as expected.
    小题3:The list of “101 things not to do” is made most probably because its author_______.
    A．thinks it boring to do the things suggested by other lists
    B．believes other lists are not humorous enough
    C．intends to persuade people to read more lists
    D．wants to provide a list different from other lists
    小题4:What is the main purpose of the passage?
    A．To introduce a website.
    B．To advertise a book.
    C．To comment on popular lists.
    D．To recommend tourist activities.

    小题1:C
    小题2:D
    小题3:D
    小题4:B

    试题分析：你是否厌倦了“100件必须做的事”之类的说法？那么就来看看这本书吧，《101件不要做的事》 。想知道更多？那就先看看这里的简介。

    Below is a selection about interesting hotels.
    Tayka Hotel de Sal
    Where: Tahua, Bolivia
    How much: About $95 a night
    Why it’s cool: You’ve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That’s something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt – including the beds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses（床垫）and blankets). The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake, which is the world’s biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste（糊）of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When there is big rain, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
    Green Magic Nature Resort
    Where: Vythiri, India
    How much: About $240 a night
    Why it’s cool: Taking a pulley（滑轮）-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window – there is no glass! – you watch monkey and birds in the rain forest canopy（罩棚）. Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read. You don’t even have to come down for breakfast – the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”.
    Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
    Where: Cottonwood, Idaho
    How much: $92 a night
    Why it’s cool: This doghouse isn’t just for the family pet. Sweet Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps of the loft（阁楼）in Willy’s head, or hang out inside his nose. Although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters, there is also a toilet in the 12-foot-tall fire hydrant（消防栓）outside.
    Gamirasu Cave Hotel
    Where: Ayvali, Turkey
    How much: Between $130 and $475 a night
    Why it’s cool: This is caveman cool! Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65·F in summer. (Don’t worry – there is heat in winter.)
    小题1:What is the similarity of the four hotels?
    A．Being expensive.B．Being comfortable.
    C．Being natural.D．Being unique.
    小题2:What does the underlined words “Sweet Willy” refer to?
    A．The name of a doghouse.
    B．The name of the hotel owner.
    C．The building of Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
    D．The name of the hotel owner’s pet dog.
    小题3:Which of the hotels gives you a feeling of living in the far past?
    A. Tayka Hotel de Sal.                  B. Green Magic Nature Resort.
    C. Dog Bark Park Inn B&B.               D. Gamirasu Cave Hotel.

    subways
    The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines
    		Features: The Tokyo Metro and Toei lines that make up of Tokyo’s huge subway system carry almost 8 million people each day, making it the busiest system in the world.

    The Moscow Metro
    		Features: The Moscow Metro has some of the most beautiful stations in the world. The best of them were built during the Stalinist era and feature chandeliers(枝行吊灯)，marble moldings and elaborate murals(精美壁画). With more than 7 million riders a day , keeping all that marble clean has got to be a burden.
    The Hong Kong MTR
    		Features: The Hong Kong MTR has the distinction of being one of the few subway systems in the world that actually turns a profit. It’s privately owned and uses real estate development along its tracks to increase income and ridership. It also introduced “Octopus cards” that allow people to not only pay their fares electronically, but buy stuff at convenience stores ,supermarkets, restaurants and even parking meters. It’s estimated that 95% of all adults in Hong Kong own an Octopus card.

The system carries about 2.18 million people a day.
    The London Metro
    		Features: Londoners call their subway the Underground, even though 55 percent of it lies above ground. No matter when you’ve got the oldest mass-transit system in the world, you can call it anything you like. Trains started in 1863 and they’ve been running ever since.
