They wear a black or blue-grey overcoat, and they have a white belly, a pair of short legs, and two wings that serve as flippers (脚蹼). There are 18 types of them. We must look at their heads and necks to tell one type from another. Some have a pair of long, yellow eyebrows, some have a rock star hairstyle, some have lemon-yellow and orange markings on their cheeks (脸颊), and some just have no special markingsat all. When these seabirds walk on land, they look clumsy. Yet, when they dive into the water, they become excellent swimmers! Most of them live in places covered by snow and ice year-round in the Southern Hemisphere, but some are found in warmer areas near the equator. What are they? These cute seabirds are penguins!King penguins and emperor penguins are the two largest types of penguins. King penguins can reach a height of 38 inches, and emperor penguins can be 48 inches tall. The smallest penguin is the little blue penguin from Australia and New Zealandwhen it stands straight, it is just about 16 inches tall. Big penguins have some advantages over their smaller relativesbig penguins can stay warm easier so they can live in a colder climate; big penguins can dive deeper and stay underwater longer so they can catch food far below the water surface.29.

The other nearby towns have much more to offer: Bradfield has its river and historic buildings, while Newtown has shops and entertainment. The buildings of Horton look dirty and unloved. For shops, there is a small supermarket, a few bargain shops, a bakery (面包店) which, strangely, does not sell bread and a flower shop which has one stand of sad-looking flowers. Even so, Horton has several advantages over its neighbouring towns.Firstly, it has a country park. Four thousand years ago, this was an important fort (要塞). There are no historic remains here now, but there are wonderful views over the countryside. On sunny weekends you can often see kids out with their parents, kicking balls or flying kites.There arent many job opportunities in Horton, and the roads to nearby cities arent really fast, but there are excellent rail links. You can be in London in an hour and a half, and other cities are less than an hour away. That means parents can work in other cities and still get home in time tospend the evenings with their families. Houses in Horton arent pretty, but theyre functional and cheap. The streets are quiet and safe, and there are plenty of parks and playgrounds. It has a library, three primary schools and a secondary school, St. Marks. Its not as excellent as other schools in the area, but it is friendly and offers a wide range of subjects and activities to children. The town also has a swimming and a sports centre, and the community halls hold regular clubs and events for people of all ages.32. What part of Horton isnt the writer satisfied with?A. The shops.B. The country park. C. Transport links.D. The schools.33. What advantages does Horton bring to workers?A. Plenty of jobs are easily found in the town.B.

Every day, Rowan sets off with his post bags in the tailof his little planenot much bigger than a large family car, and flies across one of the wildest places on Earth, Australias Cape North, to reach the very faraway inland areas called the Outback.We fly just 300 metres above dangerous crocodiles (鳄鱼) and snakes. This is one of thelongest and most expensive postman trips in the world. However, a 50-cent stamp not only gets a letter posted to a neighbouring town, it will get it hand-delivered by flying postman to the furthest areas of the Outback. To help with the costs, the plane takes three or four paying local people or tourists, and I am one of them. In the back of the plane, there is a pile of postenvelopes of all sizes, newspapers, and a few parcels (包裹). Somehow I expected this post to look special, maybe to include some hats or cowboy boots, but this looks no more exciting than the post delivered to me in England. I look at some of the names and addresses, wondering about the people who are waiting for these letters and parcels.Rowans route is 2,000 km long, with 15 stops, and I get a chance to meet Sandy, who has just received an order of clothes from a store. “I look forward to this weekly delivery, she says, “but I do miss actually going shopping myself.

What is the writers main purpose in writing the text?A. To describe postal delivery services in the Outback.B. To show the wild beauty of the Australian Outback.C.
