Where do you find out about the world’s longest walk The world’s tallest man The world’s oldest woman You know the answer,of course.It is the Guinness Book of World Records.How would people find such unusual facts without this book
The Guinness Book did not exist until 1951.Here is what happened.The managing director of Guinness Brewery was a curious man.He wanted answers to some questions about records.For example,he wanted to know what was the fastest flying game bird in Europe.But he was frustrated.There was no book to answer questions like this.
The director,Sir Hugh Beaver,contacted the McWhirter twins.They were brothers who owned a research agency.He asked them to put together a new reference book.It would include all kinds of unusual records.The brothers quickly accepted.The first edition of their book was published in 1955.Soon the Guinness Book of World Records was a best seller.It has sold more copies than any book except the Bible.A new edition is published every year.
Where do all the book’s records come from They are a combination of things like natural wonders,sports records,and stunts.But the editors try to keep things honest.All records must be verified by an investigator.Only then are they printed.
The Guinness Book is a big business.It is published in dozens of languages.There are TV shows and museums.It is proof of how interested people are in strange pieces of information.

According to Guinness World Records,the Ice Hotel in Sweden is the world’s largest hotel made entirely of ice.When it set the record in 2003,the hotel’s total floor area was 54,000 square feet.That’s larger than an American football field!
The hotel’s size changes every year,because each spring the hotel melts.Each fall workers have to build it again.
Construction on the hotel begins every October,when 30,000 tons of snow and thousands of tons of ice from the nearby are needed.
After it’s finished,the hotel has about 60 rooms,an ice church,an ice art exhibition and an ice theatre,but no skating rink.The hotel’s tables,chairs and even beds are made of ice!
But what is it like actually staying in the hotel
Because the hotel is located about 120 miles north of the Arctic Circle,the temperature outside and inside is chilly.Inside the hotel the temperature is about -5℃.The cold doesn’t seem to stop people from going to the hotel,though.In 2002 it had more than 14,000 overnight guests!
The hotel workers suggest that guests wear at least three layers(层)of clothing.And at night,guests sleep“ in very warm sleeping bags ”.
The floors do get slippery(滑的).“To keep guests from sliding around,our staff put fresh white snow on the floor and rub it every day,”explained the workers.
5.From the passage,we know that .
A.the Ice Hotel is the largest hotel in the world
B.the hotel is in different sizes each year
C.many people like to take part in building the hotel
D.many people like to spend their holidays in Sweden
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。由文章第一段第一句可知此旅馆是世界上最大的冰造旅馆,所以A项不对;文中没有提到人们想参与建造旅馆,也没有提到想去瑞典度假,所以C、D两项均不对;由文章第二段第一句可知B项正确。
6.The hotel begins to be rebuilt .
A.when spring arrives
B.when autumn arrives
C.when the hotel melts

C.it will not be easy if you walk in the Ice Hotel
D.it often snows in Sweden
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。工作人员所做的事是他们的职责所在,这不能说明他们勤奋,也不能说明瑞典人很热心,所以A、B两项均不正确;D项说“瑞典经常下雪”在此段并无体现,所以D项也不正确;根据文中最后一段“地板滑,为防止客人滑倒,工人们在上面撒一些雪”,可知C项正确。
8.The purpose of this passage is mainly to tell us .
A.how to operate an ice hotel
B.the popularity of the hotel
C.a special hotel in Sweden
D.what to take for staying in an ice hotel
答案:C
