文章大意:本文为应用文,主要介绍了四个咸水湖的相关情况。

【推荐1】The Dead Sea might be the most famous salty body in the world, but it’s by no means the only one. Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world.

Salt Sea

The most famous of the lot—the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): bring some reading material to the waters and lie back. Nature will do the rest.

Lake Assal

Surrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the center of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.

Don Juan Pond

Don Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.

Great Salt Lake

The biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere (半球) and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park both offer super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.

1. What can you do in the Salt Sea?
A.Appreciate some colorful fishes.B.Experience floating on the water.
C.Enjoy fascinating natural views.D.Witness the eruption of volcanoes.
2. What do we know about Lake Assal?
A.It’s known for being the world’s lowest point.
B.It plays a significant role in local economy.
C.It’s one of the saltiest water bodies on Earth.
D.It attracts scientists to study its environment.
3. Which place would you go to if you like taking outdoor exercise?
A.Salt Sea.B.Lake Assal.
C.Don Juan Pond.D.Great Salt Lake.

【推荐2】Having more than 500 revolution- related sites, Zunyi of Guizhou province is a city immersed in red culture. "Zunyi is a city rooted in revolutionary history," said Zheng Yunjie, 17, who is from the city. "    1    However, they usually have a good impression toward Zunyi, I guess it's the 'red culture' that gives the city a positive image and makes it popular." Indeed, Zunyi has a close connection with the development of the Communist Party of China (CPC)and the Red Army, a forerunner of the People' s Liberation Army. During the Long March(1934—1936), Zunyi is where the Red Army, under the command of the CPC, turned setbacks into victories.

    2    They learn to cherish the "red spirit". Zheng, for example, has seen the rusty guns of the Red Army soldiers, visited the steeps of Loushanguan, and admired the monument carved with former leader Deng Xiaoping's words, "The spirit of the Red Army is forever remembered."

Schools also organize red-themed activities to pass on the cultural heritage to younger generations.    3    Huang Xinyi, 13, has participated in red-themed hand-copied newspaper competitions. In one of her articles, Huang wrote, "Looking like a rooster on the map, my motherland is grand and magnificent. With the red scarf floating over my chest, the Party's great mission is remembered in heart."

    4    The city has seen over 630.5 million visits during the past five years, gaining a revenue of about 641.67 billion yuan, according to China Daily. Every year from 2016 to 2020, with the help of booming "red tourism", more than 50,000 local people were able to shake off poverty.

    5    Tourists can dress like Red Army soldiers from head to toe for less than 100 yuan at Long March-themed cosplay shops in the city center. At local memorial sites, Red Army-related plays bring history back to life, reported China Daily. The Zunyi Conference site is a part of the planned cultural park. Mou Xinyue, 17, once volunteered as a tour guide at the spot. "Many tourists made special trips to Zunyi from thousands of miles away, just to relive those hard but glamorous days," she told China Daily, "The red history makes Zunyi a big name across the country, and I believe the cultural heritage will bring my hometown an even brighter future."

A.Zunyi is like a red culture theme park.
B.Zunyi's revolutionary history has shaped the city.
C.It is seen as the turning point in the history of the CPC.
D.Many people might consider Guizhou to be poor and closed.
E.Teenagers living in this city grow up hearing the revolutionary stories.
F.Zunyi has witnessed many big events during China's revolutionary history.
G.These include trips to the red tourism spots and performances of revolutionary songs
