Tayka Hotel de Sal

Where：Tahua, Bolivia

How much：about $95 a night

Why it's cool：You've stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That's something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds (though you'll sleep on regular mattresses and blankets). The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried?up lake that's the world's biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633?square?mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.

Green Magic Nature Resort

Where: Vythiri, India

How much: about $240 a night

Why it's cool: Riding a pulley?operated(滑輪操控的) lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window—there is no glass—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy. Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel. You don't even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley?drawn “elevator”．

Dog Bark Park Inn B&B

Where: Cottonwood, Idaho

How much: $92 a night

Why it's cool: This doghouse isn't just for the family pet. Sweet Willy is a 30?foot?tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps to the loft in Willy's head, or hang out inside his nose.

Gamirasu Cave Hotel

Where: Ayvali, Turkey

How much: between $130 and $475 a night

Why it's cool: Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65℉in summer.

Last summer, as part of my high school graduation project, I volunteered at Saunders House nursing home .I choose this experience because it was something that I had never done before and I wanted to lend a helping hand．At first it was challenging because I was extremely shy.

At the nursing home, I did a lot of different activities with the residents ranging from Jeopardy to Wheel of Fortune. One of my favorites was a word game where I would write a ten -letter word on the board and the residents would try to come up with as many smaller words as possible. I could tell that it was one of their favorite games because they always seemed to be so enthusiastic when they played．I also transported residents to and from their rooms when they needed help; and whenever it was a nice day out, I would take them outside to get some fresh air and relax. On Saturday mornings, I would deliver the newspaper to the residents and on Sundays, I assisted with morning church services.

There have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can't help putting on weight as they get older，while others hold that if they stop exercising，their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths：

I'll never lose weight—I come from a fat family

Wrong！While we can't change the body type we are born with，we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families，and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercising too little.

I am fat because I burn calories slowly

Wrong！Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陳代謝). In fact，although fat people consume more energy than slim people，they also fail to realize how much they eat！Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.

Exercise is boring

Wrong！Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk，take a different route. If you do yoga，try a tai chi class. If you like swimming，set yourself a distance or time challenge.

No pain，no gain

Wrong！Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed，pain is your body telling you something's wrong，and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly，but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If they don't，rest and seek medical advice.

1.What does the author think about being fat?

A. It is the family genes that make people fat.

B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.

C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.

D. It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.

2.According to the author，how can we make exercise more interesting?

A. By taking varied exercise.

B. By choosing simple exercise.

C. By doing regular exercise.

D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.

3.What is the author's opinion about “No pain，no gain” in exercising?

A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.

B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.

C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.

D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.

4.What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.

B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.

C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.

D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.

I travel a lot in my work, and what I dislike about my job is eating alone. It always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, room service for several nights was a better choice for me.

After having room service three nights at a hotel in Houston, however, I needed to get out of my room. Although the restaurant opened at 6:30, I arrived at 6:25. The waiter at the front desk made a comment (評論) about my “being there really early”. I explained my dislike of eating alone in restaurants. He then seated me at a lovely table and asked me whether I would mind if he sat down with me for a while.

I was glad! He sat and talked with me about his career goals and the difficulty of being at work on nights, weekends and holidays. He said he hadn’t enough time to be with his family. After 15 minutes, he saw some customers at the front desk and excused himself. I noticed that before he went to the front desk, he stopped in the kitchen for a moment.

Then another waiter came out of the kitchen and had a wonderful chat with me. Before I left that night, some other waiters, even the cook, had come out of the kitchen and sat with me!

When I asked for my bill about one hour later, all the people who had sat down with me came over in a big group to my table, and presented me with a red rose. And I cried! What had begun as a lonely night ended as a beautiful experience.

I still remember my middle school life in Zhengzhou. I was then in school for student from Tibet. As we were all left home of an early age，we met lots of problems in our daily life. We had to do the washing，cleaning and shopping by us. However，we seldom felt lonely or helplessly. We enjoyed our happy life. At weekends，we will play basketball on the playground，swimming in the pool or go for a picnic in the park. We were living in a big family. We treat each other as brothers and sisters. It has been three years when we graduated，but those memories are as sweet as ever before.
