Deep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed
by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an
extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.
The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into
a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the
entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items
discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.
For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not
discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening
three hundred feet underground. He found himself
in a large cave half filled with water.
Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors.
More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far
and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea,
the full extent of it is still unknown.

A. part of a historical cave system

Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50000 dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the para. that goes before the para. ? ______.
A.It is extremely important to develop tourism
B.Building roads and hotels are essential
C.Support facilities are highly necessary
D.Planning is of great importance to tourism

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child had good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous(非凡的) adventure. But a child has his pains., he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong. His life is therefore not perfectly happy.
When the young man starts to earn his own loving, he becomes free from the discipline (纪律) of school and parents; but at the same time he forced to accept responsibilities (责任). He can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his cloths, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing ahout in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the real happiness of seeing himself make steady(稳定的) progress in his job and of building up for himself his own position in society.
Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age should come wisdom and the ability to help others with ad vice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feeling the happiness of having come through the bat tie of life safely and of having reached. a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving others to continue the fight.
The title of the passage is______.
A.Each Age
B.Growing Pains and Happiness
C.The Best Age to Be
D.The Happiest People to Be
Clerk: Would you sign the register please, Sir?

When Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year, he promised to end a controversial (有争议的), citywide cell-phone ban(禁令)in public schools, which is not equally enforced in all schools. Now, under his leadership, the city is preparing to end the ban. It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class.
Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, “If we don't see it, we don't know about it.” That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets.
But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, die ban has been strictly enforced. The detectors were installed to keep weapon out of schools,but the scanners(扫描器)can also detect cell phones. So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them.
The ban was put into place in 2007 under mayor Michael Bloomberg. Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban. Workers in vans(厢式货车)that resemble food tracks store teens' cell phones and Other devices for a dollar a day,
Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency. They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory. Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who can't afford to pay to store their phones.
Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy. It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests.
