In Turkey, there is a cave hotel. And in Bolivia, there is the Salt Palace Hotel. Thousands of years ago, the area around the Salt Palace Hotel was a large lake. But over time, all the water disappeared. Today, the area has only two small lakes and two salt deserts. In the early 1990s, a man named Juan Quesada built the hotel. He cut big blocks of salt from the desert and used the blocks to build it. Everything in the hotel is made out of salt; the walls, the roof, the tables, the chairs and the beds. The sun heats the walls and roof during the day. So the rooms stay warm at night, though it’s cold outside in the desert. The hotel has twelve rooms. A single room costs $40 a night, and a double room $60. A sign on the hotel’s wall tells guests, "Please don’t lick (舔) the walls." 56. Where did the salt for the hotel come from? A.

On that day, everyone who had their twentieth birthday in the last year goes to their Town Hall for a special activity. Everyone dressed up, and many women wear beautiful dresses. The mayor makes a speech and gives presents to all the new adults. Some kids are afraid to start school, but six-year-olds in Germany can’t wait. For them, Schlanfang is a big holiday. To celebrate a child’s first day of school, parents or friends give the child a Zuckertuete, a big color box filled with candy and little presents.

C Mark Zukerberg is the founder and CEO of Facebook, an extremely popular social working website that started in the United States. Now, millions of student users visit Facebook daily and the website is one of the top ten most widely visited sites on the internet worldwide. College and high school students use Facebook to communicate with friends and share both information and pictures for free. The company earns money through advertising. Many other companies have been rumored(谣传) to be interested in buying Facebook. 6 Just a few years after Mark started the company, he was approached by Terry Semel, who was the CEO of Yahoo. Terry offered Mark one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) to sell Facebook to Yahoo. Mark said no, though. He stands behind his dreams at the very beginning. He knows the value of the company could fall down; however, he is in this to build something unbelievable, not be bought out by another company. Maybe he was smart. Now Facebook is rumored to be worth billions of dollars and bigger companies like Microsoft or Google want a share of the company. Some private firms are also interested. Facebook could sell 15 billion dollars if Mark decided to sell it at all. Perhaps Mark will just keep working from his California office to continue his dream of building something cool. 64. Facebook makes money from_____. A. members B. students C. pictures D. advertisements 65. Terry Semel was the CEO of ______. A. Microsoft B. Yahoo C. Google D. Facebook 66.

There are special traffic lanes (行车道) to make bus journeys easier and more reliable. So do something to help solve the pollution problem—let the bus take you to work and your children to school. 7 TRAINS All car journeys, long or short, can be hard work.

When tourists read these maps, it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places. Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long journeys. Different types of roads are given different numbers.

For example, where different languages are spoken, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.
