If a snake bites you, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) take a photo with your mobile phone! It saves your life. This is the surprising advice of a British cook. One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from a table, and suddenly a snake appeared and bit him on the hand. A few days earlier, the snake came to the restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. “ I tried to pick it up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door.” Jackson said. Anyway, Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone.

Then Jackson rememb ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo.

Shangri-La is a fictional place described in the 1933 novel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) Lost Horizon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) by British author James Hilton ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ). In the book, "Shangri-La" is a mysterious, harmonious valley, where three rivers joined together, mountains, the tops of which were covered by snow, reached the sky and fields of long grass covered the earth. In this perfect world lived people who could live without getting old. In the Tibetan language, Shangri-la means the sun and the moon in one’s heart. Today, it has become a word which is used in our everyday life, meaning heaven（天堂） on the earth.
Several places in the Buddhist Himalaya between northern India ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) and Tibet ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) have claimed to be the basis for Hilton's legend, largely to attract tourism ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ). In China ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ), Tao Qian ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) of the Jin Dynasty ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) described a Shangri-La in his work Story of the Peach Blossom Valley ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) (桃花源記 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 )). In modern China, the Zhongdian ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) country was renamed to 香格里拉县in 2001, to attract tourists. The legendary Kun Lun Mountains ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) in Tibet offer other possible Shangri-La valleys.
Today, millions o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f tourists visit Shangri-la. The beautiful scenery there will make it hard for any viewer to describe in words. Three mountains, which are covered with snow, tower over the land. Lakes, surrounded by vast grasslands, look like jewels. Sheep, cows and horses feed freely on the green grass and the forests around are home to lots of birds and animals. In this heavenly world, people live peacefully with nature and are nearly separated from the outside world.
The weather in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Shangri-la is so changeable (易变的)that the tourists can feel they have four seasons in one day. The best times to visit Shangri-la are spring and autumn because the temperature is neither too hot nor too cold.

According to an analysis on the recent Mars pictures, some scientists believe there is lots of 10 on Mars and water is still in the form of ice. If there is water, there will be hope of finding life on Mars.

四、阅读理解
Like all the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) planets in our solar system, Earth and Mars go around the sun. But Earth is closer to the sun, and therefore revolves along its orbit(轨道) more quickly. Earth makes two trips around the sun in about the same amount of time that Mars takes to make one trip. So sometimes the two planets are on opposite sides of the sun, very far apart, and other times, Earth catches up with its neighbor and passes relatively close to it.
Since Mars a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd the sun appear on opposite sides of the sky, we say that Mars is in 'opposition'. Mars oppositions happen about every 26 months. Every 15 or 17 years, opposition occurs within a few weeks of Mars' perihelion(近日点).
An opposition can occu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r anywhere along Mars' orbit. When it happens while the red planet is closest to the sun (called 'perihelic opposition'), Mars is particularly close to Earth If Earth and Mars both had perfectly stable orbits, then each perihelic opposition would bring the two planets as close as they could be. So, with all these added factors, some bring us closer together than others. The 2003 opposition was the closest approach in almost 60,000 years!
Mars' orbit is more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) elliptical (椭圆的) than Earth's, so the difference between perihelion and aphelion(远日点) is greater. Over the past centuries, Mars' orbit has been getting more and more elongated, carrying the planet even nearer to the sun at perihelion and even farther away at aphelion. So future perihelic oppositions will bring Earth and Mars even closer. Our 2003 record will stand until August 28, 2287!
( )1. Mars _______.
A. isn't one of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the planets in our solar system B. is farther from the sun than the earth

( )2. The ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )time Mars takes to go around the sun is _______ that Earth needs.
A. as long as ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. not so long as C. as about two times long as
D. as about three times long as
( )3. Which of the following statements is not right
A When Mars is in 60p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )position', Mars and the sun are opposite in the sky.
B. Mars oppositions happen about every 15 or 17 years.
C. An opposition can occur everywhere along Mars' orbit.
D. Mars oppositions happen about every 26 months.
