    Exhibitions in the British Museum

    Hokusai: beyond the Great Wave

    The cost of raising a child from birth to age 18 is about 160, 140! That doesn’t even touch college tuition. For those with kids, this figure might lead them thinking how much they could have banked. For others, that number might confirm the decision to remain childless.

    But $160, 140 isn’t so bad if you break it down. It translates into S 896.66 a year, $741.38 a month, or $171.08 a week. Thar’s a mere S24. 44 a day! Just over a dollar an hour.

    Still, you might think the best financial advice says don’t have children if you ever want to be “rich”. It is not.

    What do you get for your S160, 140?

    Naming rights.

    Giggles under the covers every night.

    More love than your heart can hold.

    Kisses and hugs.

    Endless wonder over rocks, ants, clouds, and warm cookies.

    A hand to hold usually covered with jam.

    A partner for blowing bubbles, flying kites, and building sandcastles.

    For $160, 140, you never have to grow up! You get to finger-paint, carve pumpkins, play hide-and-seek, and never stop believing in Santa Claus. You have an excuse to keep reading the Adventures of Piglet and Pooh, watching cartoons, going to Disney movies, and wishing on stars.

    For $160, 140, you get to be a hero just for taking the training wheels off the bike, and coaching a baseball team that never wins but always gets treated to ice cream regardless.

    You get a front row seat to history; to witness the first step, first word, first date, and first time behind the wheel.

    You get to be immortal (不朽的).

    You get another branch added to your family tree.

    You get an education in nursing, criminal justice and communications that no college can match.

    In the eyes of a child, you rank right up there with God.

    You have all the power to correct a mistake, scare away the monsters under the bed, patch a broken heart, police a party, and love them without limits, so one day they will, like you, love without counting the cost.

    1. Which of the following is NOT true after you have a child?

    A. You enjoy the right to name your children.     B. You never seem to get old.

    C. You still need to learn.                                  D. You get admiration as a parent.

    2. By In the eyes of a child, you rank right up there with God, the author intends to say             .

    A. you are powerful next to God                        B. you are the one your children love and trust most

    C. you need to behave like a God                       D. you keep yourself too far for your children to reach you

    3. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?

    A. A dollar, an hour and a child                         B. Children and bank

    C. Money and parents                                       D. Fun and children

    4. Which of the following could be used as the last sentence to end the passage?

    A. Remain childless.                                         B. Enjoy raising your children.

    C. Make a bank for your children.                      D. Find a way to be happy.

    Check off the four corners

    Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico are not simply the only four American states that meet at a single point, but they also host the US's greatest concentration of national parks.

    This is the place to come for that classic scene of the lonely desert road extending to the horizon. On your way, take in such sights as the Monument Valley and the mysterious remains of centuriesold civilizations in Colorado's Mesa Verde.

    Find beauty in the desert

    With many miles of excellent roads, a selfdrive trip in Namibia makes total sense. Plan a route north from capital Windhoek to wildliferich Etosha National Park, before crossing Damaraland to reach the Skeleton Coast. The most impressive desert views are in the NamibNaukluft National Park to the south. At Sossusvlei, the landscape takes on the quality of a surrealist painting.

    Cross half a continent

    The 1,761milelong Stuart Highway runs north to south through Australia's Red Centre. It is not a road where every turn shows new wonders; the reward of this trip comes in the gradual change  in your surroundings, from red soils in Australia's outback to the tropical (热带的) leaves of the Indian Ocean coast.

    Take the high road

    Among all the crashing of continental plates that raised up the Canadian Rockies, a 144mile route was left more or less clear at their centre. The Icefields Parkway now passes through this amazing scenery; with the access it brings to icy lakes, waterfalls and ice fields, the section between Banff and Jasper has a good claim to being the most scenic in the world.

    篇章导读:本文是一篇应用文,介绍了四个公路旅行,包括其特色、地理位置等信息。

    1Where can you experience ancient civilizations?

    AIn Australia's Red Centre.

    BIn the Canadian Rockies.

    CIn Colorado's Mesa Verde.

    DIn the NamibNaukluft National Park.

    2What can you do on a selfdrive trip in Namibia?

    AExplore the Monument Valley.

    BEnjoy the striking desert views.

    CSave some endangered wildlife.

    DGo through the largest national park.

    3What can you infer about the trips mentioned in the text?

    AThey provide the amazing road adventures.

    BThey offer new wonders across the world.
