　　Almost all people like flowers．Some people like flowers because of their smells, shapes, colors and so on．Others like flowers because they think different flowers mean different things．Flowers have their own language．For example, red roses mean“l(fā)ove”and sunflowers mean“l(fā)oyalty”(忠誠(chéng))．So people in more than 100 countries have chosen their own national flowers which say something about their countries' spirit．In 1994, China talked about choosing a national flower．Some people liked the peony(牡丹)but others liked the plum blossom(梅花)．They couldn't agree with each other．So it has not been decided yet．

　　People like to buy different flowers in different seasons．Where do all the beautiful flowers in shops come from? They may come from far away, so their price is higher．

　　a．Farmers grow flowers in their fields．

　　b．Planes or trains or buses take the flowers to different places．

　　c．Flower shopkeepers buy flowers from the flower markets．They look at the flowers and throw away the broken or bad ones．They cut the flowers to make them more beautiful．

　　d．You go to buy the flowers in the shops．When you buy a flower, you're paying lots of people：the farmer, the driver of the plane or train or bus．The seller in the flower market and the flower shopkeeper．

　　So you'd better keep your flowers from far away for a long time．But how? Why not dry them? It's easy! Sand drying is a way．Dry, clean sand is one of the oldest things for drying flowers．And it's one of the cheapest．

　　Fill a box half-way with sand．

　　Put the flowers on top of the sand．

　　Put the box in a warm, dry place．

　　Leave the flowers there for one to three weeks．

　　Take them out and they will be dry．

Venice is an attractive city in Italy. Tourists throughout the world love traveling to Venice. But sometimes you’ll have such strange experiences. One moment you walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there’s nothing special. Unfortunately, when you come back to the bridge an hour later, it’s underwater and everyone’s wearing rain boots.
That’s just the way it has always been, which may be considered seriously by Italian government. Before the sea comes to Venice, the government has decided to build the MOSE gates. Actually(實(shí)際上), there were many kinds of gates that were built to stop the floods, but all the gates were just built on the ground. Besides, the flooding was becoming worse. Industrial(工業(yè)的)factories built nearby on the mainland also made the condition get worse, causing the city to sink about 0.75 feet in the 20th century.
So the Italian government asked some of Italy’s biggest construction and engineering companies to build the MOST project, which was planned to be built under the sea water to stop floods. Now the government are using 3 000 people and expect to spend nearly five billion euros(歐元) on it. The MOSE gates are being built at the inlets(海灣).Each MOST gate is 197 feet long ,28.5 to 37 feel tall, and weight up to 22 tons. It’s nearly the size of a 20-story building. Before the gates are in use, under the sea full of water. When the flood comes, the water in the gates will be poured out, and then the gates will be filled with air. So the gates can go up with the sea water. Once they’re in the right place, they will stop the sea water pouring into Venice. These gates will be able to deal with floods up to 10feet,and as long as the sea level(平面)rises no more than two feet in the next 100 years, the MOSE will work as expected.
The MOSE project is now two-thirds done. The head engineer, Giovanni Cecconi, said, “This is a war. During the war, it’s not important that you win. It’s important that you’re alive. We’ve alive.” Anyway, this project is saving Venice from falling.

Have you ever beard of Iceland? Iceland is a country, one-tenth of which is covered with ice. However, it is said that Iceland is the land of heat. Smoking volcanoes (火山), white steam (蒸汽) and hot springs are more amazing than the other sights including ice there.

    It has taken millions of years for volcanoes and lava flows (熔巖流) to build Iceland. When hiking through one of Iceland’s many ancient lava fields, you may notice something strange. White steam is rising from each vent in front of you. Iceland is covered with vents which steam can pass out of. The steam comes from naturally heated rocks and hot water below the Earth’s surface (表面).

    Like steam vents, hot springs can be seen here and there in the ancient lava fields. Blue Lake is the most famous hot spring in Iceland. It isn’t far from the capital city of the country. The water and white earth in it can make your skin as soft as a newborn baby’s skin. Enjoy that water, because it has traveled a long way. It starts nearly two kilometers under Blue Lake. There, water from the ocean continues moving up slowly into the spaces between hot rocks below the surface. And then the water is heated by hot rocks. Powerful machines and long pipes (水管) help bring the heated water to the surface. People in Iceland use natural hot water for hot springs. Besides, they use it to create electricity that can be used to heat homes and even greenhouses.

    Iceland is one of the few places on the Earth where active volcanoes lie below ice. Heat from the volcanoes creates a strange and wild beauty. Therefore, some people believe that it’s better to call the country “Heatland” instead of Iceland. If you have a chance to travel there, take it.
