Established in 1943 by Maharaja Umaid Singhas a private house, the hotel now can hold a lot of guests. It has long been a symbol of prosperity(繁荣)in Jodhpur. But it was financial hardship that inspired the project. In the 1920s, natural disasters ‎ swept through the region .Then the ruler Maharaja Umaid Singh saw an opportunity to create jobs and made plans for the big project that would run 15 years.‎ Over time, many of the old palaces have fallen into disrepair, but Umaid Bhawan has been beautifully preserved. That's thanks in part to Singh. II’s far-sighted decision to change part of the palace into a hotel in the early 1970s,which helps offset high repair costs.‎ The hotel rooms are furnished with old furniture. There's also a library,superior dining rooms and a terrace(露台) for afternoon tea—where you'll most likely be joined by colorful peacocks.‎ Though guests can't enter the royals' private residence, where Singh II still lives, they can visit the museum to admire 15,000 items from the family’s personal collections including rare paintings, china and even several classic cars. ‎ ‎"In India, and particularly in Rajasthan, people are very proud of their culture and heritage, and they like to preserve it, "says Avari.

This organization creates a unique clubbing experience with no wine, no prejudice and no lights. It is about people dancing in complete darkness. Scientists found that it actually offers quite a few benefits.‎ As for typical party environment, there is too much wine for children and prejudice for people with health issues. The entire point of No Lights, No Lycrais dancing and having fun in an environment where everyone is equally welcome.‎ On No Lights, No Lycra website, it says that participants from 12 to 100‎ years old are welcome, which means that teenagers can party with older people.Scientists surveyed 1,190 participants across 52 No Lights, No Lycra locations and found that most of the participants were women in their mid to late 30s.More ‎ importantly, these women didn't meet physical activity guidelines and they did not exercise enough on normal days.‎ So what's the benefit of dancing in the dark? 95% of the participants reported an improved physical health.

And 97% of the participants reported an improved mental health and that's where it becomes interesting .This is what No Lights, No Lycra is particularly proud of—darkness makes everyone equal and less worried about techniques, appearance, clothing and other superficial(肤浅的) features. This is why it is so appealing to women who are probably not in the best shape due to not following guidelines of physical activity.‎ No Lights, No Lycra is quite popular.

Its harmful effects on wildlife have been widely recorded. but a few animals are doing what they can to recycle it. And according to a 2014 study, wild bees in Canada have devoted effort, using bits of waste to build their nests.‎ ‎ These tiny insects can't recycle nearly enough plastic to put a large decrease in the problem. Still, their resourceful use of plastic proves how universal plastic pollution has become, and how some wildlife is adapting to it. "Plastic waste fills the global landscape," the study's authors say. "Although the negative influence has been recorded. there are few observations of behavioral adaptation in species, especially insects, to increasingly plastic-rich environments.”‎ ‎ Plastic can have both advantages and disadvantages in bees'nests .The bees that used bits of plastic bags didn’t suffer any parasite(寄生虫)outbreaks, but up to 90 percent of their young still died because the plastic didn't let enough water escape, encouraging the growth of dangerous bacteria. The plastic bags also didn't stick together as well as leaves do. But the bees took steps to fix this structural fault. locating their plastic pieces ‎ only near the end of a series of brood cells(母细胞). Because of this and the mixing of manmade with natural materials, "bees'ignorance does not appear to be the cause for the use of plastic," the study suggests.‎ ‎ It's still unclear why exactly the bees are using plastic, but plastic materials continue piling up in nature. This kind of behavior could become increasingly important. The researchers write. "Although perhaps accidentally collected, the novel use of plastics in the nests of bees could reflect adaptive features necessary for survival in an increasingly human-dominated(主导的) environment.”‎ ‎ 32. What can be learnt from the first two paragraphs?‎ ‎ A. Wild bees can make use of plastic.‎ ‎ B. Wild bees like using plastic to build nests.‎ ‎ C. Plastic pollution is a good thing for some insects.‎ ‎ D. Wild bees make a big contribution to reducing pollution.‎ ‎33. What's the benefit of using plastic to build nests for wild bees?‎ A. Growing better. ‎ B. Getting more water.‎ C. Giving birth to more young ones.‎ D. Preventing the risk of parasite outbreaks ‎34. What do researchers think of bees'behavior?‎ ‎ A. It's interesting B. It's confusing ‎ C. It's important. D. It's common.‎ ‎35. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Wild bees recycling plastic.‎ ‎ B. Wild bees improving the environment.‎ ‎ C. Wild bees having more survival skills.‎ ‎ D. Wild bees finding new materials for nests.‎ 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。‎ ‎ A car accident may be the worst thing a driver wants to meet on the street.‎ ‎36 However, there are important things to do at the scene of the accident and soon afterward.
