The world’s 4 best spots for wild swimming Eco-Arqueological Park, Chichen Itza, Mexico
Vines surrounding around the pool, pure blue water and schools of friendly catfish all combine to give Ik Kil Cenote in Chichen Itza a supernatural quality. “This place offers a swim like you’re on another planet, ”says TripAdvisor user David T from Anaheim, Southern California. “Dive into the water like it’s your last swim in paradise. You won’t find another like it. Grotta della Poesia, Roca Vecchia, Italy
“You have to see this place to believe it—when I first saw the pictures I wasn’t sure it was real!”says TripAdvisor user Chaitdesh from London. The Grotta della Poesia is in Roca Vecchia. Sitting on the Adriatic coast, the grotto is made up of two turquoise(绿松石)and blue karst sinkholes. “When I arrived at the natural pool my breath was taken away by its beauty, ”says Joan R from New York City. Las Grietas, Puerto Ayora, Ecuador
There’s the ocean water pool Las Grietas, positioned between two tall cliffs on the central island of Santa Cruz.
“It was the most amazing experience I had ever had,” says user Belepv from Buenos Aires. “We could dive here and see the coral reef.” Belepv offers a tip:”Even if you can’t swim, you can ask for a life vest. ”Visitors have to take a boat ride from the main dock on Santa Cruz to get to the creek. Veterans suggest bringing your own snorkeling(浮潜)gear, but you can also rent equipment in Puerto Ayora. Blue Lagoon, Grindavik, Iceland
It’s obvious why the Blue Lagoon is a hit in chilly Iceland. This naturally heated geothermal pool has a constant temperature of 40℃. Even better, you don’t have to leave the water to get a drink at the Lagoon’s outdoor bar. Ryan B from Atlanta agrees, “Drinking beer in a geothermal spa? YES!”And Rachel Raven from Quincy describes the experience as “like bathing on the moon”. 21. From the passage, we can know that . A. the Blue Lagoon is very popular in chilly Iceland B. the Grotta della Poesia consists of two sinkholes
C. catfish swim individually in Ik Kil Cenote in Chichen Itza
D. the ocean water pool Roca Vecchia is a naturally heated geothermal pool 22. If you want to take a hot spring bath, where should you go? A. Roca Vecchia, Italy.
B. Blue Lagoon, Grindavik, Iceland. C. Eco-Arqucological Park, Mexico. D. Las Grietas, Puerto Ayora, Ecuador.
23. Which of the following statements about Las Grietas is FALSE? A. It is located on the central island of Santa Cruz.
B. It is recommended that visitors take their own snorkeling gear. C. Visitors need to get to the creek by boat.
D. Life vests are necessary for all people diving here.
B
When I moved to Rome from Washington D. C., one sight struck me more than any ancient column or grand basilica: people doing nothing. I’d frequently glimpse old women leaning out of their windows, watching people pass below, or families on their evening strolls, stopping every so often to greet friends. Even office life proved different. Forget the rushed desk-side sandwich. Come lunchtime, restaurants filled up with professionals tucking into proper meals.
As we fill our days with more and more ‘doing’，many of us are finding that non-stop activity isn’t the apotheosis(神话)of productivity. It is its adversary. One meta-analysis found that long working hours increased the risk of heart disease by 40%-—almost as much as smoking (50%). Another found that people who worked long hours had a significantly higher risk of stroke, while people who worked more than 11hours a day were almost 2. 5 times more likely to have a major depressive episode than those who worked seven to eight. In Japan, this has led to the disturbing trend of karoshi, or death by overwork.
Whether it’s walking away from your desk for 15 minutes or logging out of your inbox for the night, part of our struggle is control the fear that if we relax a grip for a moment, everything will come crashing down. That’s all wrong, says poet, and life coach Janne Robinson. “The metaphor I like to use is of a fire. We start a business, and then after a year, it’s like, when can we take a week off, or hire someone to come in? Most of us don’t trust anyone to come in for us. We’re like, ‘The fire will go out’,”she says. “What if we just trusted that those embers(余火) are so hot, we can walk away, someone can throw a log on and it’ll burst into flames?”
That isn’t easy for those of us who feel like we have to constantly ‘do’. But in order to do more, it seems, we may have to become comfortable with doing less. 24. What impressed the writer most after moving to Rome? A. The ancient column and grand basilica. B. People’s relaxing lifestyle. C. People’s hurried lunchtime. D. The ways to greet friends.
25. Janne Robinson uses the metaphor to tell us that we need to . A. take time out B. do nothing
C. take quick action D. hold on
26. According to the article, .
A. in most cases, more hard work means more productivity
B. after Janne Robinson started a business, she hired someone to take it over
C. walking away from desks for 15 minutes is impossible for busy business people D. long working hours may increase health risk
27. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage? A. Devote yourself more to work B. Quit work for longer life C. Work a lot less!
D. Achieve a high productivity C
