【推荐3】Amsterdam is known for brownies and Van Gogh, but here are four unique museums in Amsterdam that should be on your radar.
Kattenkabinet
If it wasn't for the black-and-white sign hanging above the door of Herengracht 497, you might easily walk past the Kattenkabinet, a museum dedicated exclusively to the role of cats in art. Situated in a stately 17th-century house, the museum was founded by Bob Meijer. He purchased and renovated the mansion in 1985 and opened the museum five years later in honour of his cat.
Fashion for Good Museum
Fashion for Good is more than a museum. Opened in 2017 and situated on Rokin 102, it's a platform for innovation and collaboration seeking solutions to steer the fashion industry away from the "take-make-waste"pattern which has hugely impacted our environment. At their interactive studio, you'll even get the chance to design the world's most sustainable T-shirt.
Houseboat Museum
Originally built as a freighter in 1914 and moored (停泊) on Prinsengracht since 2007, the Houseboat Museum gives visitors an idea of what life is like on one of these floating homes.

【推荐1】Some authors have made some predictions (预测) about what our modern life could become. Here are four books that, somehow, managed to predict the future.
They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?
This novel was published in 1935. It’s about a dance marathon competition. Competitors who last the longest can get prize money. It’s just like reality TV shows. In reality shows, people voluntarily do things that are physically and mentally tiring or embarrassing.
Neuromancer
William Gibson’s 1984 novel, Neuromancer, not only gave birth to the cyberpunk genre, but it also predicted cyberspace (网络空间) and the Internet. In 1984, there was already a network, but only several universities used it. Gibson predicted the rise of technological addiction and people’s need to be online.
Earth
In 1990, Brin published the novel where the story takes place in the year 2038. A black hole has fallen into the Earth’s core. Scientists have a year to fix it, or the earth may be destroyed. And Brin correctly predicted the World Wide Web (Web) that was invented a year after the book was published. In Earth, the characters don’t think they would find any Earth-like planets. In reality, we have found several Earth-like planets.
Childhood’s End
Childhood’s End is about an invasion (入侵) of Earth by aliens called the Overlords. They help advance human technology. One of those technologies they introduce is a type of virtual reality that is like a movie. The author also predicted that in the early 2000s, people might watch TV for three hours a day.
1. Which of the following books predicts a new kind of TV shows?A.They Shoot Horses, Don’t They? | B.Childhood’s End |
C.Neuromancer | D.Earth |
A.A special way of communication. | B.People’s eagerness for new things. |
C.People’s need for the Internet. | D.The invention of the computer. |
A.It is about the exploration of the Earth-like planets. |
B.One opinion of its characters has been proven wrong. |

【推荐2】Native to forests of Central and South America, glass frogs in the Centrolenidae family get their name from their skin and muscles that help them be perfectly fit to live in their jungle environment. Turn the frogs over, where the effect is the most impressive, and you’ll make out their hearts, livers, and other organs through their hyaline stomachs.
And in a study published in the journal Science, researchers have discovered an amazing mechanism (机制) the animals use to become so clear.
When glass frogs go to sleep, they take in 89 percent of their brightly colored red blood cells into sacs (液囊) in their livers, which reflect incoming light and make the frogs appear nearly unseen. With their red blood cells out of view, the frogs become twice to three times more clear -a trick scientists believe helps the animals avoid being killed and eaten by their natural enemies.
“The trick is really hard to do, because their tissues are full of things that take in and spread light. And transparency (透明) is normal for many creatures in water, but hard on land,” says study co-author Jesse Delia. “Red blood cells also take in a lot of light, and we found that the frogs can actually hide themselves by packing them into the liver.”
Not only are the findings interesting, but the researchers attach great importance to them. That’s because many red blood cells in one place usually form a clot (血块), which can block and lead to a potentially life-threatening condition. But the frogs can seemingly clot and expand their red blood cells at will — without any negative effects. This may mean the animals already have what medical researchers have been seeking for decades: a biological mechanism which prevents too much bleeding while also preventing too much clotting.
1. What does the underlined word “hyaline” mean in paragraph 1?A.See-through. | B.Powerful. | C.Narrow. | D.Good-looking. |
A.The frogs fit in their environment better. |
B.Sacs filled with red blood cells make the frogs clear. |
C.Red blood cells in the frogs’ liver reflect light. |
D.The frogs are able to take in a lot of bright colors. |
A.Interesting. | B.Unusual. | C.Normal. | D.Annoying. |
A.They help cure serious diseases. |
B.They are a blessing for wild animals. |
C.They can lead to advances in medicine. |
D.They will prevent all clotting and bleeding. |
