Then again, can you really put a price tag on having the time of your life? According to a new report from PopularMechanics, Russia is looking to build a luxury hotel in outer space. There you will wake up to a breathtaking blue planet-the earth! The hotel is expected to be stationed on the International Space Station (ISS).While space tourism itself isn't exactly a novel idea, the notion of building a hotel out there hasn't been raised before. Really, other companies are still focused on the transportation part of the puzzle 一 after all, a trip to space is enough for most folks.According to Popular Mechanics, the hotel will include a luxury orbital suite with big windows, personal hygiene (卫生) facilities, exercise equipment, and yes, WiFi. Because if you can't share your experience on social media, did it really even happen?Of course, the reasons behind the hotel aren9t just fbr fun and games.

Some 100,000 Canadian soldiers died in the First and Second World Wars.In Canada, Remembrance Day is a federal statutory （法定的）holiday 一 with a notable exception of Nova Scotia, Northwest Territories, Ontario and Quebec as it is in many other countries in the world where this day is observed on the national level.All government buildings fly the Canadian flag this day and people remember those who fought for Canada during a two-minute silence at Ham. Many people wear poppies before and on Remembrance Day to show their respect and support for Canadian troops. Poppies are generally handed out free but often a voluntary donation is given in exchange.In the United States this day is called Veterans9 Day and is also observed on November 11th.Should Remembrance Day be a state holiday in every province?We continue to receive lots of messages from people all over the country who are outraged （气愤的）why Remembrance Day is not a state holiday everywhere in Canada. Indeed, it would make sense to make this a state holiday in every province and territory even in Ontario. But not everyone agrees. Send us your thoughts about this issue in the comment area near the bottom of this page.Recently we received a comment from Jason and would like to post it on this page because we think that Jason makes a very good point in his message:"Please DO NOT make Remembrance Day a statutory holiday in Ontario. Family Day is a much more appreciated break for families in the heart of the long cold depressing winter. Remembrance Day is better observed in a ceremony at your school, community centre or place of work.”1 > What can be learned about Remembrance Day?A. It was established on November 11th, 1918.B.

There is something in what he said about the issue.B. Not everyone agrees to have Remembrance Day.C. To collect people's different views on the issue.D. To show Family Day is appreciated in Ontario.4、Where is this passage most likely taken from?A , The Internet. B . The magazine.C. The newspaper. D. The history book.Text 4High levels of chocolate consumption might be associated with a one third reduction in the risk of developing heart disease, suggests a study published online in the British Medical Journal. The findings confirm results of existing studies that generally agree on a potential beneficial link between chocolate consumption and heart health. However, the authors stress that further studies are needed to test whether chocolate actually causes this reduction or if it can be explained by some other unmeasured factor.The World Health Organization predicts that by 2030, nearly 23 6 million people will die from heart disease. However, lifestyle and diet are key factors in preventing heart disease, says the paper, A number of recent studies have shown that eating chocolate has a positive influence on human health due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This includes reducing blood pressure and improving insulin sensitivity.However, the evidence about how eating chocolate affects your heart still remains unclear. So, Dr Oscar Franco and colleagues from the University of Cambridge carried out a large scale review of the existing evidence to evaluate the effects of eating chocolate on cardiovascular（心血管）events like heart attack and stroke.They analyzed the results of seven studies, involving over 100,000 participants with and without existing heart disease, For each study, they compared the group with the highest chocolate consumption against the group with the lowest consumption.Five studies reported a beneficial link between higher levels of chocolate consumption and the risk of cardiovascular events. They found that the "highest levels of chocolate consumption were associated with a 37% reduction in cardiovascular disease and a 29% reduction in stroke compared with lowest levels.No significant reduction was found in relation to heart failure.The authors say the findings need to be interpreted with caution, in particular because commercially available chocolate is very calorific (around 500 calories for every 100 grams)and eating too much of it could lead to weight gain, risk of diabetes and heart disease.However, they conclude that given the health benefits of dating chocolate, initiatives to reduce the current fat and sugar content in most chocolate products should be explored.1、Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. There used to be studies about the beneficial link between chocolate consumption and heart health.B. Millions of people will die from heart disease according to the WHOC. There are still other factors that may reduce the risk of heart disease.D. There is clear evidence about how eating chocolate affects your heart.2、What are the possible causes of heart disease ?A. Eating chocolateB. Unhealthy dietC. Exercising regularlyD. Drinking coffee.3、Whafs the authors9 attitude towards the findings?A. cautiousB. doubtfulC. disapprovingD. negative4、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A
