Trapped under ruins after the Iran earthquake, Dan Woolley believed he was going to die. But rather than giving up, the film-maker managed to look up ways to treat his injuries on his iPhone beneath the earth. He also wrote a moving diary for his family, allowing them to read his last messages of love and comforting them after his death. Instead, he was pulled from the ruins after a week — and would soon meet his family.
Mr. Woolley, from Colorado Springs, America, had traveled to Iran with his colleague David Hames. Both had been working for Charity Compassion International. He was in the hotel when the earthquake struck. Buried under tons of ruins, the film-maker downloaded a first aid application to his iPhone. He used the instructions from the app to treat the serious bleeding. He used his shirt to tie off the injury on his leg and a sock to bandage (包扎) the back of his head. The app advised him not to go to sleep if he felt sleepy. Mr. Woolley set his phone alarm to go off every 20 minutes to keep him awake.
Mr Woolley used a small black notebook to write messages to his family, including his son and wife. He had thought his son would read them after he was dead.
“I was in a big accident. Don’t be upset at God,” he wrote. “I’m still praying that God will get me out, but he may not. But he will always take care of you.”
Mr Woolley was eventually rescued a French rescue team. After being flown to Miami for surgery, he said, UI cried. At that time I wanted to use that time to do everything I could for my family. I always wanted to survive, but I knew that was something that I couldn’t control.”
New technology really played a huge part in our life. 24. In the diary, Mr Woolly noted that ________. A. he was looking for ways to survive B. this might be his last message

Ecotourism (生态旅游):A Different Way to Travel
Are you attracted to obscure (偏远的) places? Do you prefer to vacation away from other tourists? Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, you just might be an ecotourist.
Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world and leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990s and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the tourism industry at large. The Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin (盆地) is contributing to that expansion, and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like.
At the Ecolodge, a small group of cabins (小屋) sits Kapawi Ecolodge in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve (保护区) and is only reached by air. From here, visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket, where they find food, clothing, medicine and tools. As a result, tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment.
The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people, but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2011.The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.
You probably won’t start your own ecolodge, but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines:
Protect the environment; Support local businesses; Respect the local customs and traditions.
The world is full of fascinating places to visit. As an ecotourist, you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well. 28. According to the text, the ecotourists should be ________.
A. those who like to experience the easily-remembered natural environment B. those who like to go to their travelling places by hiking C. those who prefer unique natural environment of cultural relics
D. those who prefer an undamaged natural world and remain what it used to be 29. At the Kapawi ecolodge, visitors can’t ________. A. explore the Amazon rainforest B. reach there by air
C. see many travelers from outside D. live in the Achuar reserve
30. What does the underlined word “snapshot” in Paragraph2 possibly mean? A. Opportunity. C. Adventure.
B. Aim. D. Idea.
31. We can learn from the passage that ________.
A. the owners of Kapawi encourage tourists to appreciate the Achuar culture B. the Kapawi Ecolodge owners are the Achuar in favor of ecotourism
C. the Achuar people have benefited a lot by collecting money from ecotourists D. the Kapawi Ecolodge will continue to run and manage the lodge after 2011

No matter what country they are held in, state banquets(国宴) are grand (盛大的) and mysterious. They are dinners hosted by the government to welcome guests from other countries.
From Nov 8 to 10, US President Donald Trump paid a three-day state visit to China. On the second day of his visit, Chinese President Xi Jinping held a State Banquet for Trump at the Golden Hall of the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
What was the menu like? According to China Daily, delicate (精致的) Chinese food and popular Western dishes made a great mix.
There were five hot dishes. Kung Pao Chicken caught the eyes of the guests because it is also popular in Chinese restaurants in the US. Coconut-flavored Chicken Soup (椰香鸡豆花) showed how Chinese food had developed, while Stewed Beef Steak in Tomato Sauce (番煎牛肉) and Seafood Chowder (奶汁焗海鲜) were more Western.
