4、have left in the igloo is the front door， ” he says.After their stay，all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success.With no windows，nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0 ，it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxing hotel break.“Its great fun， ”Bergqvist expl
5、ains， “As well as a good start in survival training.”The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt.It is now attracting tourists from all over the world.At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms.“You can get a lot of people in， ”explains Bergqvist.“Th

10、 need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment.You only have to share your childrens curiosity(好奇)Firstly ，listen to their questions.I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job.The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling，salary and whet
11、her I liked my job.When I finished answering，we sat facing one another in silence.Finally I said， “Now that were finished with your lists，do you have questions of your own about science？”After a long pause，a boy raised his hand， “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢)eat? When I try eating leaves like
12、 that，I get a stomachache.Why ？ ”This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.Secondly，give them time to think.Studies over the past 30 years have shown that，after asking a question，adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer，no time for a child to think.When adults inc
13、rease their “wait time”to three seconds or more，children give more logical(符合逻辑的)，complete and creative answers.Thirdly， watch your language.Once you have a child involved in a science discussion，dont jump in with “Thats right” or “Very good”These words work well when it comes to encouraging good be
14、havior.But in talking about science，quick praise can signal that discussion is over.Instead，keep things going by saying “Thats interesting” or “Id never thought of it in that way before”，or coming up with more questions or ideas.Never push a child to “think”It doesnt make sense.Children are always t
15、hinking，without your telling them to.Whats more，this can turn a conversation into a performance.The child will try to find the answer you want， in as few words as possible，so that he will be a smaller target for your disagreement.Lastly， show：dont tell.Real-life impressions of nature are far more im
16、pressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program.Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜)，and theyll understand why you want them to wash before dinner.Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发) ，put a pot of water to boil and let them wa

20、h.CThe fifth and sixth.DThe seventh.CWithout proper planning，tourism can cause problems.For example，too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country.If tourists create too much traffic，the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy.They begin to dislike tou

22、e wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem.If tourism grows too quickly，people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry.This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer.On the other hand，if there is not enough tourism，people can lose jobs
23、.Businesses can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels，airports，air terminals，first-class roads，and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions.For example，a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to buil
24、d.If this room is not used most of the time，the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning.There must be many support facilities as well，including roads to get to the hotel，electricity，sewers to handle waster and water.All of these support facilities cost money.If they are n

27、e their lifeDHave you ever thought why there are very few great people? I think there is probably only one great person out of 10，000 at best and most probably much less than that. Most people want to be great, right? But why only very few of them become great? Here is the reason: most people do not
28、 pay the price of greatness.I think this one is quite obvious. Now, the next question is: if there are so many people who want to be great, why only very few of them actually pay the price? The answer to the question explains the difference between the almost 100% people who want to be great and the
29、 much less than 0.01% people who actually can be so.The reason why very few people actually pay the price is this: the road to greatness is continuously painful for a long time. Greatness requires sacrifices (牺牲) and there is no sacrifice without pain. This kind of sacrifice makes the process contin
30、uously painful for a long time. If you want to be good, it will be painful only every now and then and many people can still handle it. But being great is a totally different level. The pain is much deeper and it is continuous. Very few people can endure this kind of pain and thats why there are ver
31、y few great people. Most people naturally choose things that bring pleasure to them. Its unnatural to choose pain over pleasure, let alone doing it continuously for a long time.But thats what I believe is the secret to greatnesschoosing pain over pleasure continuously for a long time.12The reason wh
32、y there are very few great people is that_Aonly less than 0.01% people actually want to be greatBmost people have no ability to be greatCmost people are not willing to experience the hardship to be greatDonly less than 0.01% people have the ability to be great13Which of the following sayings would t

34、 well with othersDto choose pain instead of pleasure for a long time15The underlined word “endure” in the passage is closest to “_” in meaning.Aremain alive or continue to exist for a long timeBbe in a difficult or painful situation for a long time without complainingCget over something unpleasantDd
