    Reading Comprehension

    　　Q　　My husband and I would like to spend five or six days in the Maldives. Could you suggest some low-priced hotels? We'll be there in November.

    　　Jan Davies, email.

    　　A　　Prices in the Maldives are high. The cheaper hotels (and there aren't many) mightn't be much to look at, with unpleasant rooms, iron roofs, old buildings, poor and rough vegetation and basic facilities, but they get their atmosphere from cheerful customers and an untidy, free island feel.

    　　Angaga (South Ari Atoll, phone 0011 960 450510), Asdu Sun Is-land (North Male Atoll, email info@asdu. com.mv) are both a bit like this.

    　　You'll be there in the low season (May to November), when it's still warm, but there's a greater likelihood of rain, so you should be able to get a double (standard) room with full board (three meals a day) fo $100 a night.

    　　However, pricing structures for the hotels are enormously complex for standard, superior and luxurious rooms.

    　　Q　　My husband and I are from Australia. We are planning a four-week trip to London, Dublin and Paris in October and we are shocked by the cost of hotels. We have searched the Internet and hotel books given to us by tourist authorities but we can't find anything cheaper than $150 a night.

    　　Joan Maloney, email.

    　　A　　For Australians travelling Europe, especially its capital cities, is expensive. You may have to increase your budget (预算). However, if you can't afford these costs, then you should consider staying in hotels where the cheapest twin rooms with shared hathroom cost about $20 a person in Dublin and Paris and $35 in London. The minimum you would pay for a double room in a central area is $50 a person in Dublin and Paris and $70 in London. These prices are for shared bathroom facilities, though you will get a wonderfully unhealthy cooked breakfast thrown in.

    　　Not all hotels are equal, of course, and it's a good idea to consult a guidebook with a good reputation.

    1．The hotel Angaga in the Maldives

    [　　]

    A．attracts untidy people

    B．has some basic facilities

    C．has the best landscape

    D．can be contacted by cmat

    B．the weather will probably be better than that of the low season

    C．standard, superior and luxurious rooms are all available

    D．a standard room with full board will cost less than $100 a night

    3．What is the advice for the couple planning to visit Europe in October?

    [　　]

    A．They could live in hotel rooms of lower standard.

    B．They should put up with the wonderfully unhealthy cooked break fast

    C．They should buy a rcliable guidebook instend of increasing the budget

    D．They should stay in hotels in a central area

    　　When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get．

    　　For kids, happiness has a magical quality．Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved(毫不掩饰的)．

    　　In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes．Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity．I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party．

    　　In adulthood the things that bring deep joy-love, marriage, birth-also bring responsibility and the risk of loss．For adults, happiness is complicated(复杂的)

    　　My definition fo happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”．The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are．It's easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even goo health．

    　　I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday．First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself．Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love．When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day．

    　　Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work．I don't think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either．She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her．

    　　We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have．We’ve so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it's making us miserable．So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren't necessarily happier

    　　Happiness isn't about what happens to us-it's about how we see what happens to us．It's the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative．It's not wishing for what we don't have, but enjoying what we do possess．

    (1)

    As people grow older, they

    [　　]

    A．

    feel it harder to experience happiness

    B．

    associate their happiness less with others

    C．

    will take fewer risks in pursuing happiness

    D．

    tend to believe responsibility means happiness

    (2)

    What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 5 and 6?

    She enjoys the freedom of traveling

    C．

    She is easily pleased by things in daily life

    D．

    She prefers getting pleasure from housework

    (3)

    What can b informed from Paragraph 7?

    [　　]

    A．

    Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness

    B．

    Psychologists’opinion is well proved by Grandma’case

    C．

    Grandma often found time for social gatherings

    D．

    It looks a bit like the coolers used to keep drinks fresh on asunny day but the cool box being tested in hot Mozambique serves a higher purpose –saving lives from malaria(疟疾).

    The new cool box is intended to keep malaria medicines at 25 degrees Celsius(77 degrees Fahrenheir) or below in poor rural areas without electricity where the temperature can reach 45 degrees Celsius.

    “At the beginning, the cool boxes will be used to store malarial drugs,” said Parfair Komlan Edah, advisor to John Snow Incorporated, a US company developing the coolers.

    “We will change the treatment pattern and procedure because the drugs are expensive and they have to be well stored to be effective,” he said.

    The projuct, funded by the US Agency for International Development , started in 2006 and is still at an expermental stage. The coolers are currently being tested in three regions of Mozambique –Maputo, Tete and Zambezia.

    The tests will determine whether the coolers are adopted for use nationwide.

    In Mozambique , malaria is the leading cause of death among children admitted to pediatric(儿科的) services and there has been an increase in cases of malaira in recent years.

    Faced with the sudden increase in malaira, Mozambique’s health ministry last year decided to expand the use fo rapid diagnostic tests for the disease that can give a result within minutes.

    The only trouble was that diagnostic tests have to be stored at the temperature of 25 degrees Celsius or below and are currently only available in provincial hospitals that have refrigeration facilities.

    “The project was faced with the dilemma(进退两难的处境) of how to ensure quality products despite the hot, humid weather and lack of electricity common in remote health facilities,” Edah said.

    The solution was to design”evaporative(蒸发的) coolers”—similar in size to a small refrigerator. The coolers have a water tank at the top that is regularly refilled. When water evaporates from the tank it passes aong wicks that stick out of the cooler, keeping the content s of the box cool/

    In a message on World Malaria Day, the World Health Organization(WHO) stresed the importance of national malaira programmes.

    Nelson Nkini, head of Proserv, a Mozambican non-governmental group supplying mosquito nets treated with anti-malarial substances, said preventing the disease was cheaper than curing it because of the cost of medicines.

    60. If the cool boxes are used,_________.

    A. medicines can be stored at any degree Celsius

    B. malaria will disapear in Mozambique

    C. malaria medicines will be used more effectively

    D. the temperature will become lower in Mozambique

    61. The situation in Mozambique is that__________.

    A. the official department doesn’t know what mianly causes children’s death

    B. the project funded by the US Agency for International Development is fighting against malaria.

    C. the use of rapid diagnostic tests for malaria is being expanded inth whold country

    D. diagnostic tests can be currently available in most rural hospitals.

    62. Which can be the best title for the passage?
