    White water rafting is one of the classic, wild, activities in the outdoors. It is also an opportunity for an unbelievable family adventure. Around the country, there are several rivers—and rafting outfitters—that are perfectly suited to the entire family.
    Here are three of the best:
    New River Gorge, West Virginia
    Rafting in West Virginia is renowned for its established infrastructure, reliability, and easy access. These things make it an obvious choice for a family vacation. Famous areas, including the New River Gorge, offer everything from lazy floats to intense Class IV runs.

    Jackson Hole, Wyoming
    Jackson Hole provides a full range of opportunities in the outdoors—and white water rafting is certainly one of them. Popular trips include the rough rapids of the Snake River and gentle floats in nearby Yellowstone National Park.

    Four strange scholarships that actually exist
    The scholarship for the tall
    If you find yourself having to lower your head to enter doorways then you might get this unusual scholarship. If you are a boy 6'2" or taller, or a girl 5'10" or taller, then you can be in the running for the Tall Clubs International Scholarship. All you have to do is write a simple message titled “What being tall means to me,” and you could get $1,000.

    The scholarship for the short
    If you aren’t tall enough for the tall scholarship, maybe you are short enough for the short one. The Billy Party Foundation offers this unusual scholarship to students who are short. One needs to be shorter then 4'10" and have a medical certificate as proof of dwarfism.
    The scholarship for golf caddies(球童)
    Did you know that you could get a free ride to college for being a golf caddie? Okay, it’s a little harder than that, but each year the Evans Scholars Foundation covers tuition(学费) and housing for hundreds of student caddies from all over the country.

    Below is a passages adapted from a website.
    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 that’s 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 of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, 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 monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy(罩蓬). 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℉in summer. (Don’t worry---there is heat in winter.)
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    -------------------------------------------------------
    Treebones Resort
    Where: California, America        
    How much: $100 a night
    Why it’s cool: You can sleep in a “room” any night, but how often do you get the chance to sleep in a yurt. What’s a yurt? Good question. Yurts are the name given to guest rooms at the Treebones Resort. These spaces provide all of the accessibility to nature you’d enjoy in a tent, but with all the comforts of a cabin. In one of sixteen yurts, you will doze off(打盹儿) while gazing at the stars that can be seen through a sky dome.
    小题1:What is the main purpose of this passage?
    A．To sell the hotels.
    B．To attract guests.

    The following are the results of the tests done by “Family and Home Magazine” on some Pocket Tape-Recorders on the market now.

    Pearlcorder S702 $64
    This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording. Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible, but it doesn’t turn off automatically.
    Tape length: 30minutes per side. Weight: 240g.
    Sony M9   $49.95
    Small and very good looking, Sony’s latest offering scored most for its appearance. Sounds clear, but there is slight machine noise. The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders. It doesn’t switch off automatically, but a red light shows if the machine is still running.
    Tape length: 60minutes per side. Weight: 195g.
    Sony M400  $115
    Lots of little control buttons that make a noise are difficult to use. Recording is good but machine noise loses points. Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.
    Tape length: 60 minutes per side. Weight: 230g.
    Imperial OEM MC7 $ 29.95
    Cheap and simple compared with the rest, but recording is good as long as there is no background noise. Use only its own-make of cassette. No light to show it is on; no fast-forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.
    Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight: 285g.
    Philips 585 $80
    Handsome and simple to use, but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation. No recording light.
    Tape length: 15 minutes per side. Weight: 220g.
    小题1:The machine that produces the best recording with the least unwanted noise is _____.
    A．Pearlcorder S 702B．Sony M9C．Sony M400D．Imperial OEM MC7
    小题2:If you want a machine which turns off automatically and weighs very little you should choose _____.
    A．Pearlcorder S 702B．Sony M9C．Sony M400D．Philips 585
    小题3:Which of the following allows you to record longest but costs you least?

    小题4:What disadvantage does only the Imperial OEM MC7 have?
