When places are well-known and popular— historical and modern alike— we might take it for granted that they’ll be around forever. But sadly, many of the world’s best known and culturally significant landmarks are in trouble.
Mount Kilimanjaro’s peakThis mountain, one of the Seven Summits, proves that even giants can fall to climate change due to the vast amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. While the mountain itself, located in Tanzania, isn’t in danger at present, its iconic snow cap might disappear—and shockingly soon. Research found that the snow cap had lost 85% of the total area of its ice fields between 1912 and 2007, and the remaining ice could be history as early as 2030.
Machu PicchuLocated in southern Peru, Machu Picchu is the remains of a huge stone castle that was built during the 15th century. These unbelievable Incan ruins are widely considered one of the must-see spots in South America. However, the site has been a victim of over-tourism, seeing the harmful effects of the crowds it gets as they wear down the structures. In addition, the area surrounding Machu Picchu has seen rapid development of the cities, as well as mudslides and fires, in recent years, leading UNESCO to work for its protection.
Everglades National ParkThis stunning Floridian wildlife reserve has sadly found itself fighting for its life in recent years. As ‘the largest subtropical wilderness reserve’ in North America, according to UNESCO, it’s been a beloved travel destination for American citizens for decades, but the damage of time and human activity have not been kind to it. Its survival first came into question after it was destroyed by Hurricane Andrew in 1993. But it’s human influence that has become the primary threat, as water flow to the site has decreased and the impacts of pollution have increased, resulting in harmful algal blooms (赤潮). Its vast, diverse wildlife is more threatened than ever before.
16. Which problem does Mount Kilimanjaro face?A.Global warming | B.City development. |
C.Over-tourism | D.Ice pollution. |
A.They are the impacts of pollution and mudslides. |
B.They are destroyed severely due to over-tourism. |
C.They are famous but affected by human activities. |
D.They are considered as victims of global warming. |
A.Lack of popularity. | B.Hurricane Andrew. |
C.Algal blooms. | D.Diverse wildlife. |
At the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, halfway in the women’s slalom (障碍滑雪) race, 18-year-old Mikaela Shiffrin took a commanding lead over the greatest women’s slalom skiers in the world. On her final run, she burst from the start house at a breakneck speed, snaking around the poles in crazy rhythm.
Skiing has always been a significant part of Mikaela’s life. Her mom raced and coached skiing and her dad ski raced all through college. The Shiffrins taught Mikaela and her brother, Taylor, to ski at a very young age. At the age of two and a half, Mikaela made her first ski run on plastic skis. From ages 8 to 11, she worked hard, practicing hundreds of training runs on small hills repeatedly to develop the correct techniques of slalom skiing.
When Mikaela was 11, she attended the Burke Mountain Academy, a Vermont boarding school for skiers. She took classes, studied, and practiced her skiing crazily. According to Kirk Dwyer, Burke Mountain Academy headmaster, “It was the degree of Mikaela’s effort to be the best that distinguished her from others. Her commitment to conditioning, having proper sleep, eating correctly, doing the drills, and watching video was unusual for an 11 to 13-year-old. Mikaela practiced more than anyone and believed in herself then and now.”
By the time she was 17, she had already won her first World Cup race.
Working hard is a full-time job for Mikaela. Even her off-season is work time. In the summer, when Mikaela is off the ski slopes and in the gym, her daily training consists of six to seven hours of weight lifting, swimming, and biking to improve her core strength and flexibility. She does all of this so that she can dash down slopes at speeds topping 50 miles per hour while cutting back and forth around gates with astonishing precision.
“If you have passion for your targets, whatever they are,” she says, “the sky is the limit. Give it your all!”
19. What can we learn from paragraph 2?A.Mikaela came from a skiing family. |

C.Mikaela trained harder than her brother. |
D.Mikaela’s father coached skiing in colleges. |

C.To praise the good students in his school. |
D.To highlight Mikaela’s great devotion to training. |
A.Talented and wise. | B.Creative and determined. |
C.Flexible and brave. | D.Determined and self-disciplined. |
A.Practice makes perfect. |
B.Not to advance is to go back. |
C.He who laughs last laughs best. |
D.Actions speak louder than words. |
Our most commonly held code for success is broken. Conventional wisdom(普遍看法)holds that if we work hard we will be more successful,and if we are more successful,then we’ll be happy. If we can just find that great job,win that next promotion,lose those five pounds,happiness will follow. But recent discoveries in the field of positive psychology have shown that this code is actually backward:Happiness fuels success,not the other way around. When we are positive,our brains become more engaged,creative,motivated,energetic,and productive at work. These discoveries have been repeatedly proved by rigid research in psychology and neuroscience(神经科学),management studies,and the bottom lines of organizations around the globe.
In The Happiness Advantage,Shawn Achor,who spent over a decade living,researching,and lecturing at Harvard University,draws on his own research—including one of the largest studies of happiness and potential at Harvard and others at companies like UBS to fix this broken code. Using stories and case studies from his work with CEOs of Fortune 500 in 42 countries,Achor explains how we can reprogram our brains to become more positive in order to gain a competitive ability at work.
Based on seven practical,actionable principles that have been tried and tested everywhere from classrooms to boardrooms,stretching from Argentina to Zimbabwe,he shows us how we can capitalize on The Happiness Advantage to improve our performance and maximize our potential.
A must-read for everyone trying to stand out in a world of increasing workloads and stress,The Happiness Advantage isn’t only about how to become happier at work. It’s about how to get the benefits of a happier and more positive mode of thinking to achieve the extraordinary in our work and in our lives.
23. What do we know about the new discoveries in Paragraph1?A.Conventional code for success is totally useless. |
B.The more we are successful, the happier we are. |
C.Positive psychology is really backward. |
D.Happiness contributes greatly to success. |
A.To reprogram one’s brain to be healthier. |
B.To make people more positive and competitive. |

D.To make lectures at Harvard University. |
A.provide fund for | B.make full use of |
C.in search of | D.stand out for |
A.To help people stand out in the world. |
B.To arouse people’s sense of happiness. |
C.To help people decrease the work stress. |
D.To strongly recommend the book. |
No matter how many times you go, Dubai always has something new in store for its natives and tourists. Let’s take a look at a few must-dos for your first time in this impressive city in the United Arab Emirates!
●Hit the famous Dubai Mall.
Any shopaholic (购物狂) worth their salt knows about the Dubai Mall, one of the most famous and the most expensive shopping centres in the world.
●Mind your manners.
While you’re searching for the next adventure, make sure you follow some basic rules of conduct that the local law prescribes. For example, if you’re travelling with your significant other, public displays of affection are strictly forbidden.

Although you’ll find many tourists wearing clothes considered not entirely polite by the locals, there are certain rules that are strictly implemented in restaurants, malls, and entertainment centres. So, if you put on something considered inappropriate or revealing, you risk being asked to leave a place.
