Have you ever been into a cave? If not, please follow us and explore some of the most beautiful
caves from around the world!
Marble Caves
Located in the center of Lake General Carrera, the Marble Caves in Chico, Chile, are only
accessible by boat. The surrounding crystal clear waters allow visitors to see the rock formations beneath
them while the rock ceilings above change color(depending on the writer levels and the season). The best
time to visit: during sunrise and sunset, when the sun’s rays light up the cave walls, making it an
experience to remember.
Reed Flute Cave
Reed F1ute Cave known as “the Palace of Natural Arts” is located in the northwest of Guilin in
southern China.The limestone cave offers a grand fairyland of stalactites(钟乳石), stone pillars, stone
curtains, birds, plants and animals in fantastic shapes and colors.
Fingal’s Cave
This incredible sea cave is located on the uninhabited island of Staffa in Scotland. The cave’s size,
shape, and naturally—arched(拱形的) roof combine with the waves to create strange sounds that enhance
its cathedral—like atmosphere.
The Blue Grotto
The Blue Grotto is the symbol of Capri. It is a sea cave found on the coast of the island and is a
well-known spot to all who visit the area. This cave is unique for its brilliant blue light which comes
from two sources: the entrance to the cave and a bigger hole beneath the entrance. When viewed from
inside the cave, the entrance appears as a brilliant white light just above the waterline, while the
underwater hole, which is the larger source of light, provides a blue light.

A crowd cheered Kunle Adeyanju as he turned off his motorbike engine after completing a tiring
41-day trip. The 44-year-old left London on April 19 and arrived in Nigeria’s commercial center
Lagos on Sunday after travelling more than 8,000 miles across 13 countries. He started the impressive
journey to raise funds for Rotary International to deal with polio (小儿麻痹症) in his native Nigeria.
Accompanied by a dozen bikers for the last stretch of the journey from the Republic of Benin,
Adeyanju was welcomed by supporters in Ikeja, in central Lagos. Adeyanju, called “Lion Heart” by
fans, won popularity among the public by posting daily pictures with comments about his journey on
social media. At every stop along the way, he was greeted by enthusiastic (热情的) supporters.
He did face some challenges, like the one in Mali where one of his wheels broke. “I was standing
in the middle of the night, alone in a bush, not knowing what to do, without speaking the language,
he said, explaining he had to walk to the nearest village. “Fortunately, the locals helped me.Not all
of the challenges he faced were solved smoothly. “Mauritania, a country in northwest Africa, was
‘terrible’,” he said, after he got robbed of hundreds of euros. “The worst experience,” he added.
The former Shell employee self-funded his trip with $20,400 in savings, hoping to raise up to
$48 million for Rotary International. “I have been suffering from a lack of sleep lately because I slept
only three to four hours per night. But I feel proud because I finished this challenge,” Adeyanju said
just after he arrived, wiping the sweat off his face. Adeyanju added that he is now planning to have a
possible cycling trip to Ghana or a bike ride to Israel to help raise more funds. And he has another dream:
to climb Mount Qomolangma.
24. Why did Adeyanju go on the 41-day trip?
A. To challenge himself.
B. To help people fight polio.
C. To connect with more people.
D. To advertise Rotary International.
25. How did Adeyanju become popular during the journey?
A. By using the title “Lion Heart”.
B. By commenting on other bikers’ journeys.
C. By sharing his experiences online.
D. By showing his deep love for his hometown.
26. What happened to Adeyanju in Mauritania?
A. He got lost in the bush.
B. He met with crime.
C. He failed to understand the locals.
D. He broke his motorbike.
27. Which words can best describe Adeyanju?

Fashion designers are always looking for new materials to work with. Lately, it’s all about
environment-friendly materials -- recycled tires, mushrooms, even pineapple fibers! What if you want such
a pair of shoes? Thaely is here to help.
This sneaker brand out of Dubai wants to fight the growing problem of plastic pollution. Led by 23-
year-old Indian businessman Ashay Bhave, they may have found a winning approach: making shoes out of
plastic grocery bags. “Thaely” means “plastic bag” in the Hindi language.
“I was looking to create footwear that is cost-effective and safe for the environment,” Bhave said in an
interview with a newspaper. “I needed to come up with something that uses recycled plastic without
creating any more plastic waste. ”Plastic bags were the perfect solution. He said five trillion plastic bags
are used around the world each year. “I was motivated to find a solution to this problem,” Bhave said.
That solution was the fiber called ThaelyTex. Made entirely from plastic bags, the material looks and
feels like leather. That sounds promising. Better yet, the production process requires no additional
chemicals and produces no poisonous by-products. The result is a smart-looking pair of white low-top
sneakers.
Bhave wouldn’t expose the full process for making ThaelyTex, but he said that each pair of shoes
was made from up to 15 plastic bags and 22 plastic bottles. Where do they get the materials? Bhave
told Elle that was the hardest part. “The biggest challenge we faced was right at the first step of
acquiring the plastic bags. ”
Finally, they got help from TrioTap Technologies, a waste management plant. Bhave said they
offered to collect the bags and also process them into ThaelyTex.
So far, it seems like things are falling into place. There are already hundreds of pre-orders in
place. It sounds like they have some plans for the future. “We have a few more colors coming up,”
said Bhave. They also plan to put out a high-top model and bring in a line of clothing. Let’s hope their
growth is also friendly to the environment.
28. Why did Bhave choose to make shoes out of plastic bags?
A. To set a new footwear trend.
B. To test new materials for footwear.
C. To reduce the use of plastic bags in his home country.
D. To use recycled plastic in an environment-friendly way.
29. What was the most difficult task for Bhave?
A. Having a few more colors for Thaely.
B. Processing plastic bags into ThaelyTex.
C. Collecting enough production materials
D. Dealing with many poisonous by-products
30. The underlined part“put out”in the last paragraph probably means__________.
A. produce B. conserve C. provide D. broadcast
31. What can be the best title for this passage?
A. Bhave: a promising young man
B. Thaely: killer of waste plastic bags
C. ThaelyTex: material out of garbage
D. TrioTap Technologies: a waste management plant

As you may have noticed, machine learning and artificial intelligence are two of the hottest areas
in technology today. One company that seems to have been caught flat-footed in the artificial
intelligence race is Apple. To successfully participate in new markets, Apple is seeking ways to
combine its strategy in Siri and artificial intelligence.
