A city in South Korea has added a new attraction to its cultural landscape(景觀)—the world’s first “Toilet Theme Park”. The Restroom Cultural Park in the city of Suwon is proving a huge hit with locals and tourists alike.
The park was built to memorize the former city mayor Sim Jae-duck, known as “Mr. Toilet”. He believed the toilet is a very important place and full of culture. Visitors to the park can enjoy its toilet- bowl- shaped exhibition hall as well as lots of bronze statues(銅像) in all kinds of toilet positions. They can even sit on Mr. Kim’s original toilet, which includes a full-length glass door that mists(蒙上薄霧) up when it is being used.
Suwon has become well known because of the promotion(宣傳) of toilet culture. The city attracts toilet- related artwork from around the world to its galleries. It famously hosts the Golden Poop Art Festival- a celebration of one of the calls of nature. The city also lists lots of its own public toilets as tourist attractions on its website. Sim Jae-duck’s toilet-shaped house, now a museum, should be the must-see for enthusiasts. It’s said that Mr. Sim was born in the loo of his mother’s house, so he loved toilets very much. He said in 2007, “The toilet can save humankind from diseases and is a place for introspection(反省). The toilet is also a central living place that has culture.”

On my first holiday in America, I went to a large supermarket to buy breakfast. And although this was an English-speaking country that I knew well through films and TV, I was amazed. Everything came in unfamiliar (不熟悉的) packaging (包裝),with things I'd never heard of, Even things as simple as corn chips were strange, in different colours including black and purple.
Tilse, who works for Nutrition Australia, first realized there was a problem six years ago. After teachers at her children's school quietly shared their opinions about the diets, she knew something about it. "They cared for what many children were  bringing to school for lunch," she said. "Mostly packaged foods, such as chips are not healthy."
Tilse said, “They've managed to escape war areas and get to Australia, only to face the very real risk of running into heart disease. All because they're making wrong choices about food."
"Before I came to Australia, I'd never seen a sandwich," said Joseline Ntunzusenimanima, a 33-year-old mother of seven from Burundi in East Africa. "There were so many fruits I had either never seen or not been able to buy for many years. I was in shock for the first four days after I arrived. I didn't know what to do or where to go because I was just amazed to see plenty of food, peace and safety."

Should we be afraid of sharks(鯊魚(yú))? Maybe not. New research into the reasons for shark attacks (攻擊) suggests that sharks don’t like the way humans taste! In fact, most people who are attacked by the shark are still alive after receiving only one bite (咬). Why is this?
There are many opinions to explain why sharks sometimes attack people. One opinion is that sharks are just curious (好奇的). We know that sharks are the strongest animals in their environment, so they are not afraid of anything. Naturally, that means they are curious when they meet something unusual. Because they don’t have hands or feet., the only way they can find out an object is to bite it! It is thought that sharks sometimes bite humans for this reason, and then swim away.
Scientists also say that sharks would not waste energy trying to eat a human, as we have a lot of bones (骨頭). It is hard for a shark to eat us because sharks don’t have hands, and they can’t pull the meat off our bones. Maybe that’s why they only bite us once. Unluckily, one bite from a large shark is serious enough to hurt people greatly!
Another opinion is that sharks attack humans by mistake. Some sharks may sometimes mistake humans for a seal. An example of this is when a shark  attacks a surfer. A surfer lying on a surfboard looks like a seal when seen from below. Sharks like seals because they have thick fat.
Whatever the reason for shark attacks on humans, sharks should be afraid of us. Sadly, we kill almost 40 million of them each year.
小題1:What happens to people attacked by sharks?
A.Most of them because blind.B.Most of them because of deaf.
C.Most of them died.D.Most of them are still alive.
小題2: How do sharks find out about an unusual object according to the passage?
A.By biting.B.By smelling.
C.By touching.D.By killing.
小題3:Which sentence about sharks is true?
A.Sharks pull meat off bones when they eat.
B.Sharks might mistake humans for seals.
C.Sharks like to attack surfers because of their thick fat.
D.One bite from a shark is nothing serious.
小題4:What would the author write the passage mainly for?
A.To tell surfers to stay away from sharks.
B.To ask people to stop killing sharks.
C.To let us know the reasons for shark attacks on people.
D.To show that humans are much stronger than sharks.

Beginning in the middle of the 20th century, a few people were worried about polluting the earth’s water and air, but most people did not change their way of life.

You see scientists did not find another safe planet, so now we must travel around the universe in our space ships. We are still looking for a place to call our home.
