Does your local town have a nickname? If so, what does it say about the area and the people who live there? Many cities are recognized across the world by their unofficial titles. New York is the Big Apple, London is the Big Smoke, and Los Angles is famously called La La Land.

Now, as part of English Language Day on Wednesday, Britain's national mapping agency, Ordnance Survey, and the British linguistics charity (語言學(xué)慈善機(jī)構(gòu)) , the English Project, are launching an interactive project which aims to identify the nicknames people use in their daily lives for local places.

“The name that people create for a place forms an emotional connection,” explains Winchester University's Professor Bill Lucas, a supporter of the English Project. “So Basingstoke becomes Amazingstoke, Swindon is known as Swindump and Padstow, hometown of Chef Rick Stein, is nicknamed Padstein.”

Basingstoke is a town in central England. The local nickname, Amaxingstoke, shows that affection that locals seem to have for the area. Swindon, on the other hand, is sometimes called Swindump, showing that some people think it's a dump (垃圾場). Stanford Le Hope in Essex is called Stanford No Hope by locals. And Padstow in Cornwall is so closely connected with the local famous person Rick Stein that it's become known as Padstein.

Since launching the online survey last week, the creators have already received 3,000 alternative titles for places and landmarks.

There is a practical side to the project. Glen Hart, Ordnance Survey's head of research, says the information could be very helpful to the emergency services. For example, “ By having the most complete set of nicknames we could help the emergency services quickly locate the right place, and maybe even save lives,” he says.

1.What's the passage mainly about ?

A．Some stories about nicknames for places.

B．Organizations collect official place names.

C．People have a great affection for their cities.

D．A survey of the nickname for places.

2.Unlike the town Basingstoke, Swindon is a place that________.

A．seems unpleasant to some people

B．a(chǎn)ttracts a lot of tourists

C．has few people living there

D．has a long history

3.What does Glen Hart think of the project?

A．It proves that most nicknames are interesting.

B．It is very helpful to the emergency services.

C．It may help increase the number of nicknames.

D．It has helped prevent deaths from happening.

There are many places to go on safari in Africa, but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys.

Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta. The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.

The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.

In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.

Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.

Mu Yumin had no idea that when he stopped by the computer club as a freshman looking for something fun, it would decide his career four years later. The 22-year-old biology major at Huazhong University of Science and Technology found a job as an IT technician in Shanghai. “My experience in the club gave me another ‘diploma’,” said Mu. “ More importantly, I found something I am good at and can make a living from. ”

Now campuses around the country have started recruiting (招收) fresh faces for all kinds of clubs. Upperclassmen and experts suggest a hobby-based choice of clubs, which might have a lasting impact on one' s life and career. Zhang Ling did not get many chances to write stories as an environmental protection major at Jiangxi University of Science and Technology. But this changed when she joined the university broadcasting station. Her daily interviews with students and teachers expanded her horizons. Now she is determined to become a journalist on environmental issues with her degree in environmental protection.” “Journalism changed my life track,” said the 22-year-old girl. “I only wanted to be a science teacher in a local senior high school. But now I am applying for a graduate school in journalism. ”

Lan Yujie, a professor at Anhui University of Technology, regards Mu and Zhang as good examples of choosing “what I like” instead of “what is practical” in finding jobs and seeking further study. “Some freshmen don't know what to choose,” said Lan. “Just following a hobby and doing something you like can easily give you the experiences that make you happy and special. ”

Lan further says that joining clubs should not necessarily have a purpose. As part of campus life, a club experience will impact one's life and career in one way or another. “The point of clubs is to have as many diverse experiences as possible so that students can explore more of their life,” said Lan.

Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural and urban areas within one country.

Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread.

Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies success in the New Year for the person who receives it.

Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.

Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.

A. can help to develop unity

Many students often say that they don't have “ enough time” to do all their schoolwork.
