Huge global interest in " the best job in the world"―earning good money for lazing on a paradise island for 6 months―has crashed the Australian website where it is advertised.
The job pays 150,000 Australian dollars (about 100,000 US dollars) and includes free airfares from the successful candidate's home country to tropical Hamilton Island on the famed Great Barrier Reef.
In return,the winner will be expected to have as much fun as he or she can―soaking up the sun,swimming,snorkeling,sailing―and report to a global audience via weekly blogs photo diaries and video updates.
The successful candidate―who will stay rentfree in a multi-million-dollar threebedroom beach home―must be over 18 ,a " fantastic and charismatic" communicator,and able to speak and write English.
The campaign is a key element in a drive to promote the northeastern Australian state's 18 billion dollar a year tourism industry during the tough global economic climate,officials say,and they are at pains to stress that it is "a real job".
The successful applicant will " also have to talk to media from time to time about what they're doing so they can't be too shy and they'll have to love the sea,the sun,the outdoors," said acting state Premier Paul Lucas.
The fact that they will be paid to explore the islands of the Great Barrier Reef,swim,snor?kel and generally live the Queensland lifestyle makes this undoubtedly the best job in the world.
More than 350 applications had been submitted before the website crashed―from Britain,the United States,Croatia,Turkey,Italy,Germany,Canada,Netherlands and Portugal among other countries.
Candidates are required to create a video application in English of up to one minute explaining why they are uniquely qualified for the job.
One applicant had submitted his application via email in six different language and some candidates had reportedly visited the Australian Embassy in Washington with applications in hand.

"Soon,you're going to have to move out!" cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest to?mato plant known to mankind,or at least known in my neighborhood.
One tiny 9-inch plant,bought for $ 1. 25 in the spring,has already taken over much of my rose bed,covering much of other plants,and is well on its way to the front door.
Roses require a good deal of care,and if it weren't for the pleasure they give,it wouldn't be worth the work. As it is,I have a garden full of sweetsmelling roses for most of the year,bushes must be pruned (剪枝) in early spring,leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available (可用的) in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant.
Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out to be even more perfect for tomatoes. The daily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing (施肥) have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it as the plant grew has long since disappeared under the thick leaves.
Now the task I face in harvesting the fruit is twofold. First,I have to find the red ones among the leaves,which means I almost have to stand on my head,and once found I have to reach down and under,pick the tomatoes and withdraw (缩回) my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won. I found two fullblown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June,but they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.
Here I am faced with a painful small decision：To tear up a wonderful and productive toma?to plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say goodbye to several expensive and treasured roses. Like Scarlett in Gone With the Wind,I'll think about that tomorrow.
( ) 5. Why did the writer plant the tomato?
A. It was very cheap.
B. The soil was just suitable for it.
C. There was the space available in the garden.
D. The writer made a mistake.
( ) 6. What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
A. The writer's treatment of roses quite satisfied tomatoes.
B. Tomatoes don't need any watering and regular fertilizing.
C. Roses turned into tall bushes and covered the tender tomatoes.
D. The writer was quite dissatisfied at seeing the growth of the tomatoes.
( ) 7. By saying "the prize so dearly won" in Paragraph 5,the writer wants to .
A. show the difficulty in picking the tomatoes
B. show the hardship of growing the roses
C. express her liking for the roses
D. express her care for the tomatoes
( ) 8. What decision did the writer make about the difficult choice?
A. To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant.
B. To say goodbye to several expensive and treasured roses.
C. The writer has decided to have both finally.
D. The writer hasn't made any decision yet.

British newspapers are among the oldest and most famous in the world. But recently big changes have seen these traditional publications try to fit the modern world. After 216 years,The nmes (《泰晤士报》) has changed its size to become much smaller. In fact,the paper has cut its size in half from a broadsheet to tabloid.
InBritainthe newspaper market is divided between the larger broadsheets and the smaller tabloids. These terms refer to the size of the papers' pages but there is also a clear difference in content. Broadsheets such as The Times,The Gwardian(《卫报》) and Daily Telegraph 《每日电讯报》) are serious papers. They cover a broad range of political,economic and international is?sues. Their stories are also reasonably long and use quite formal language.
Tabloids have far more stories about less serious issues such as celebrities' love lives. Their stories are shorter and use more simple language. Tabloids often have bigger pictures. Britain's bestselling newspaper,The Sun,is a tabloid and has a naked (棵体的) girl on page three every?day.
By changing to the size of a tabloid,The Times is following in the footsteps of a less fa?mous broadsheet paper The Independent (《妆：报》) .It changed to tabloid last year and saw its sales increase greatly. Although both papers have switched to the smaller size,the content of the papers has remained the same. They are both still serious papers.
The two papers claim that people find the smaller size easier to handle when they travel to work on the bus or the train in the morning. Instead of calling the new style of their paper tab?loid,the paper says its new size is "compact"(紧凑型) .
( ) 5. What is the difference between tabloid and compact?
A. They have the same size and meaning but different calling.
B. Tabloid is a kind of smaller paper with short stories,pictures and celebrities' affairs.
C. Compact is the same kind of paper as its broadsheet with the same contents.
D. They are in the same size but different contents：popular―serious.
( ) 6. According to the text,which can best describe the two kinds of papers?
A. Broadsheets are larger in size while tabloids are smaller.
B. Tabloids are less serious than broadsheets.
C. Broadsheets contain more news than tabloids.
D. They are different in size,content and the style of language.
( ) 7. In which of the following newspapers would you find more news about the personal life of the famous soccer star Beckham?
A. The Sun B. The Times
C. The Independent D. The Guardian
( ) 8. According to the passage we can infer the main reason for The Times changing into the tabloid is that .
A. it wants to become convenient for people to carry
B. it wants to increase its circulation (发行量)
C. it intends to follow what The Independent has done
D. it is unlikely to stay in business if it does not change
