When the first polar explorers headed south, giant cathedrals of ice marked their entry into uncharted territory. Passing the towering spires, they must have wondered what unearthly sights lay in store. As they battled on, the ice became increasingly dominant, but nothing could have prepared them for the ice world that finally loomed into view. Terra incognita, “the unknown land”. At the southernmost extreme of our planet, the continent of Antarctica is as large as the United States of America. Ninety percent of all the world’s ice is found here.

Surprisingly, it doesn’t rain every day in a rainforest, but more still falls here than anywhere else on Earth. On average, over two meters a year. A single tree can suck up hundreds of tons of water each year. But the tree can’t use all this water, so much of it returns to the air as vapour, forming mist and clouds. In the Amazon, the largest unbroken stretch of rainforest in the world, half of all the rainwater that falls comes from clouds produced by the trees themselves. With so much rain, it"s not surprising that many of the world"s largest rivers are found in rainforests.

　decades. I worked as a teenage babysitter for years. At that time, I took up those jobs as they were economic to do so, but now I sec them as valuable experiences. The article reminded me of just how significantly babysitting influenced my worldview and my approach to parenting. It made me think that more teens should be involved in babysitting because it really does prepare them for life in a way that few other things can. Babysitting makes everyone’s life easier. I gained many practical skills adapting to children. I discovered that the outdoor activities are the best way to wear out high-energy children and that reading books aloud is an excellent way to pass the time and that music makes an instant party. Babysitting reveals how other households operate. This is a fascinating, invaluable lesson. I had great conversations with the parents of children I babysat. Some parents introduced me to their favorite music, described their own jobs and interests, and showed curiosity about my schoolwork and life goals. In a society where families are increasingly isolated (孤立的) from each other, where children are no longer raised by a “village” or community of caring individuals, hiring a teenage babysitter is a simple way to bridge that gap and it also gives that teen a chance to gain some independence. The next time you’re having a date night with your partner, don’t hesitate to call on that teen down the street and offer him or her a job. It could be the best thing for all of you. 4. What is the common phenomenon of babysitting in the UK? A. The adults’ having difficulty watching over their kids. B. The youth’s lack of interest in babysitting. C. The increasing average age of babysitters. D. The rising demand for babysitters. 5. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3? A. To state the benefits of babysitting. B. To reveal the kindness of some parents. C. To share her experiences of babysitting. D. To show how other households operate. 6. What does the author suggest that parents do in the last paragraph? A. Create harmonious community culture. B. Spend more time at home with their kids. C. Encourage their kids to be more independe...
