Vanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sport, there is a lot to do. Vanuatu’s islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano（火山）surfing and land diving.

Volcano Surfing

On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts（爆发）almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it’s very different. Volcano surfers try to escape the erupting volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks! It’s fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport（极限运动）.

Land Diving

Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony（宗教仪式）. A man ties tree vines（树藤）to his legs. He then jumps head-first from a high tower to touch the earth with the top of his head—without breaking the vine. Every spring, island natives (men only) still take part in this amazing activity.

46. In Line 2, what does the word “those” mean?

A．People.	B．Animals.
C．Activities.	D．Islands.

47. According to the passage, Mount Yasur ______.

A．is no longer active	B．is on Pentecost Island
C．erupts almost every day	D．rises 800 meters into the sky

48. Why have people recently started climbing Mount Yasur?

A．People can climb it easily.

B．People can make money.

C．People can watch snow on it.

D．People can surf the volcano.

49. Which of the following about land diving is true?

A．It is not dangerous at all.

B．It was first called “bungee jumping”.

C．It is a traditional activity in Vanuatu.

D．It came to Vanuatu from another country.

50. What is the purpose of the passage?

A．To tell people not to do dangerous sports.

B．To explain what volcano surfing and land diving are.

C．To talk about the world’s best volcano surfer and land diver.

D．To compare activities in Vanuatu with sports in New Zealand.

What do we really mean by being open? Being open is a kind of invitation to others to come in, to speak and to share. It is important in letting others get to know how we think and feel. In this way we will be understood and accepted by others. If we aren’t open with others, we won’t fully believe in ourselves or others.

Here are a few ways for you to be more open. First, make your outside behavior the same with your inside feelings and thoughts. Second, share how you really feel about something instead of just opinions. Third, try to change your questions into statements and talk in the first person so that people will understand you more easily. For example, you might say, “I feel happy that you’re here,” instead of, “Are you glad that you’re here?” Finally, try not to say, “I don’t know.” This usually means I don’t want to think about it any more.

Remember also that it is not suitable to be open with everyone in every situation. You may want to be more open with close friends, but not with people you don’t know well, because you are not sure how someone else will use what they know about you. Besides, some people may not be used to too much openness. If we say everything we feel or think to them, they will feel very uncomfortable at times.

In all, being open is a good way for us to get on well with other people, but we’d better keep the balance between being open and not being too open.

Which animal do we need m    76    ? Dogs? Horses? No! The a    77     to the question is cows. Why cows? Cows give us milk. And milk is one of our most important k    78     of food.

Suppose (假设) that all the milk cows make in one year were put i    79     bottles. And suppose these bottles were put side by side. The line of bottles would go all around the world 400 t    80    . That is a lot of milk, less than half of it is used for d    81     and cooking. Most of it is u    82     to make butter cheese, ice cream and many other things. It takes many cows to give us that m    83     milk. But not as many as it used to. A cow used to give only about 1,500 quarts (夸脱) of milk a year. Now a fine cow may g    84     more than 3,000 quarts in a year.

Why do cows give more milk today? Now farmers have better cows. The cows get better c    85     and better food.
