    Are you a volcano lover? Here is a list of some of the world's most beautiful volcanoes

    that our travel agency can offer you to visit. Don't miss them!

    Mount Mayon, the Philippines

    Located about 450 km southeast of Manila on the island of Luzon, Mount Mayon is the

    most active volcano in the Philippines; a September 2014 eruption forced thousands to flee the

    area. Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns in the Albay province

    and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have a historical

    good point at the Cagsawa Ruins, once an 18th Century Franciscan church that was destroyed

    by an 1814 eruption.

    Kilauea and Marina Kea, Hawaii

    Hawaii's volcanoes are known for their active eruptions and extraordinary scenes. Mauna Kea is around one million years old, while Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has

    been erupting continuously since 1983. The lava falls straight into the sea, creating fantastic

    forms of black rocks and smoke clouds.

    Mount Kelimutu, Indonesia

    Kelimutu's three mysterious crater lakes attract both scientists and tourists to the island

    of Flores in Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province. One is emerald green (翡翠绿), another

    dark red, and the third pitch black. Scientists say the lakes take on such colors because the

    volcanic gases met the lakes' minerals centuries ago.

    1.People who hike Mount Mayon can enjoy the following EXCEPT ______.

    A. views of the towns in the Albay province

    B. views of the Pacific Ocean

    C. views of the Cagsawa Ruins

    D. views of Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province

    2.According to the text, Kilauea_____________________.

    A. is an active volcano

    B. stopped erupting in 1983

    C. is the youngest volcano in the world

    D. forced thousands to flee in 2014

    3.The colors of Kelimutu's three mysterious crater lakes are due to_______________.

    A. water pollution B. different environments

    C. chemical reaction D. different temperatures

    Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.

    Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies' two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sévigné in Paris.

    Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-­ray facilities(设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X­-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognized in the form of a Military’s Medal by the French government.

    In 1918, Irene became her mother's assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.

    Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia(白血病) because of her work with radioactivity(辐射能). Irene Joliot­ Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 1956.

    1.Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?

    A．Because she received a degree in mathematics.

    B．Because she contributed to saving the wounded.

    C．Because she won the Nobel Prize with Frederic.

    D．Because she worked as a helper to her mother.

    2.Where did Irene Curie meet her husband Frederic Joliot?

    A．At the Curie Institute.

    B．At the University of Paris.

    C．At a military hospital.

    D．At the College of Sévigné.

    3. In which of the following aspects was Irene Curie different from her mother?

    A．Irene worked with radioactivity.

    B．Irene combined family and career.

    C．Irene won the Nobel Prize once.

    D．Irene died from leukemia.

    Dear Alcohol,

    You've been around forever. I can remember all the pain you've caused for me.

    Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life? I do. He loves you. Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me. He's addicted to you, to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them. You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street, crashing into two other cars. He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night.

    Do you remember the night of my first high school party? You were there. My friends were intrigued by you. They treated you as if they were never going to see you again, drinking all of you that they could. I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely. "I'm so embarrassed," they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit . "I'm sorry," they said when I called taxies for them, walking them out and paying the driver in advance. "This won't happen again," they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped. Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.

    Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons? Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car? He died the next morning too. His sister walked home from her dance lesson, and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio. She didn't realize her orother was in the midst of it all. She never saw him again. And it's all your fault.

    I wish you'd walk out of my life forever. I don't want anything to do with you. Look at all the pain you've caused. Sure, you've made people happy too from time to time. But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable. Stop luring (引诱) in the people I love. Stop hurting me, please.

    Sincerely,

    Anonymous
