The Biggest Stadiums in the World

People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world’s best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.

These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities(容量) slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.

For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.

All these stadiums are still functiona1, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.

·Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang D.P.R. Korea. Capacity: 150,000. Opened: May 1,1989.

·Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U. S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927.

·Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U. S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, 1960.

·Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio, U. S. Capacity: 104,944. Opened: October 7,1922.

·Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U. S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24, 1927.

21. How many people could the Circus Maximus hold?

A. 104,944. B. 107,601. C. About 150,000. D. About 250,000.

22. Of the following stadiums, which is the oldest?

A. Michigan Stadium. B. Beaver Stadium. C. Ohio Stadium. D. Kyle Field.

23. What do the listed stadiums have in common?

A. They host big games. B. They have become tourist attractions.

C. They were built by Americans. D. They are favored by architects.

When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline(座機(jī))?

These days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.

Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones according to a survey (調(diào)查). Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket — 19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.

More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor(因素)— only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who’ve perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn’t the only factor; I’d say it’s also to do with the makeup of your household.

Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone(using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).

How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?

24. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?

A. Their target users. B. Their wide popularity.

C. Their major functions. D. Their complex design.

25. What does the underlined word “concede” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Admit. B. Argue.

C. Remember. D. Remark.

26. What can we say about Baby Boomers?

A. They like smartphone games. B. They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.

C. They keep using landline phones. D. They are attached to their family.

27. What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?

A. It remains a family necessity.

B. It will fall out of use some day.

C. It may increase daily expenses.

D. It is as important as the gas light.

You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.

At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source(來源)of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.

In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate(說明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped(傾倒) from a truck all at once.

Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.

28. What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for?

A. Beautifying the city he lives in. B. Introducing eco-friendly products.

C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D. Reducing garbage on the beach.

29. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3?

A. To show the difficulty of their recycling.

B. To explain why they are useful.

C. To voice his views on modern art.

D. To find a substitute for them.

30. What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers?

A. Calming. B. Disturbing.

C. Refreshing. D. Challenging.

31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Artists’ Opinions on Plastic Safety

B. Media Interest in Contemporary Art

C. Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies

D. Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures

During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often. Annoyed by the level of distraction(干擾)in his open office, he said, “That’s why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street — so I can focus”. His comment struck me as strange. After all, coworking spaces also typically use an open office layout(布局). But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works.

The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking. They were randomly divided into four groups and exposed to various noise levels in the background, from total silence to 50 decibels(分貝), 70 decibels, and 85 decibels. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however, the participants in the 70 decibels group — those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop — significantly outperformed the other groups. Since the effects were small, this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise.

But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study also suggests that the right level of background noise — not too loud and not total silence — may actually improve one’s creative thinking ability. The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus. This kind of “distracted focus” appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks.

So why do so many of us hate our open offices? The problem may be that, in our offices, we can’t stop ourselves from getting drawn into others’ conversations while we’re trying to focus. Indeed, the researchers found that face-to-face interactions and conversations affect the creative process, and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions.

32. Why does the interviewer prefer a coworking space?

A. It helps him concentrate. B. It blocks out background noise.

C. It has a pleasant atmosphere. D. It encourages face-to-face interactions.

33. Which level of background noise may promote creative thinking ability?

A. Total silence. B. 50 decibels C. 70 decibels. D. 8 5 decibels.

34. What makes an open office unwelcome to many people?

A. Personal privacy unprotected. B. Limited working space.

C. Restrictions on group discussion. D. Constant interruptions.

35. What can we infer about the author from the text?

A. He’s a news reporter.

B. He’s an office manager.

C. He’s a professional designer.

D. He’s a published writer.

According to Jessica Hagy, author of How to Be Interesting, it’s not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party.

36 , if you’re out of your comfort zone or if you’re wandering into somebody’s house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.

People love to talk about themselves. If you can start the conversation with a question other than “What do you do for a living?”, you’ll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you’re talking to. 37 , it can bring in “I have this old, broken-down vehicle” or “I rode the bus with these crazy people who were laughing at silly jokes in the back.” It just opens up conversation.

38 ? If you can’t take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox (講臺(tái)). If you’re the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 39 .

And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence? If you’re faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment(贊揚(yáng)). _ 40 . Just quickly turn around and say, “This cake is extremely delicious and you have to tell me all about it.”

So being interesting at a dinner party isn’t that hard.

A. How do you know the host

B. The first step is to go exploring

C. If you ask the question “How did you get here?”

D. Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangers

E. Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to say

It is different from traditional tourism because it allows the traveler to become 61 (educate)about the areas — both in terms of geographical conditions and cultural characteristics, and often provides money for conservation and benefits the 62 (develop) of the local areas.

Ecotourism has 63 (it) origin with the environmental movement of the 1970s. It was not widely accepted as a travel concept 64 the late 1980s. During that time, increasing environmental awareness made it desirable.

Due to 65 growing popularity of environmentally-related and adventure travel, various types 66 trips are now being classified as ecotourism. Actually, a true eco-friendly trip must meet the following principles:

? Minimize the impact of 67 (visit) the place.

? Build respect for and awareness of the environment and cultural practices.

? Provide 68 (finance) aid and other benefits for local peoples.

? Make sure that the tourism provides experiences for both the visitors and the hosts.

Komodo National Park, officially recognized in 1980, is popular for ecotourism because of its unique biodiversity. 69 (activity) there range from while watching to hiking (遠(yuǎn)足) and accommodations aim 70 (have) a low impact on the natural environment.

I love doing housework. I always assist my parents in doing the dish after meals. I also water the flowers in the yard and tidying up my own bedroom whatever necessary. In my opinion, students can benefit a lot doing some housework. Firstly, doing housework was helpful for us to be a responsible person. Also, it gives our parents more time to do what they are like and it improves the family relationship. What’s most, doing housework can be a form of mentally relaxation from study.

Be smart online learners

Network learning has increasingly become an important means for people to acquire knowledge and solve problems.But being smart online learners has its advantages and disadvantages.

First of all, as smart online learners, we can make full use of the most extensive educational resources to broaden the horizon. Besides, We can take the initiative in our study by ourselves without time and space limit.

Of course, these disadvantages are as follows.Faced with all kinds of information on the internet, We can't tell the difference between the true and the false, which may be harmful to our study and life. On the other hand, online learning itself has some imperfections, making it difficult for us not to be affected.

In conclusion , we should have a good understanding of its advantages and disadvantages and find a proper way to make our study more efficient.

高三學(xué)好英語的方法

1.高三學(xué)好英語要多多閱讀英文詞典，目的是提高英語詞匯量。每年的高考，都會(huì)出現(xiàn)英語學(xué)霸，這些學(xué)霸的共同點(diǎn)是記憶力4000多個(gè)英語詞匯量，不靠死記硬背，靠的是閱讀量。通過閱讀與相應(yīng)單詞有關(guān)的大量的英文句子，反反復(fù)復(fù)練習(xí)一個(gè)月，一竅不通，就直接死記硬背相關(guān)的英語單詞。

2.高三學(xué)好英語要說出來。很多學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語僅限于用眼看，不會(huì)讀出來，這就是所謂的"啞巴式"英語。學(xué)習(xí)英語需要我們大聲的說出來，說出來別人才會(huì)聽到你讀的對(duì)與不對(duì)、好與不好。說出來才方便我們記憶，只有不斷地練習(xí)去說，對(duì)于以后我們的交流和語感是大有幫助的。

3.高三學(xué)好英語要反復(fù)練習(xí)。語言的學(xué)習(xí)在于練習(xí)，這就好像一門技術(shù)，只有不斷地反復(fù)練習(xí)你才不會(huì)陌生，你才能更加的爐火純青。一位偉人曾說過，反復(fù)操練是非常必要的，你越多的將你多學(xué)的東西運(yùn)用到實(shí)際生活中，它們就變得越自然。

高三怎么學(xué)好英語

學(xué)好英語要每天用最佳時(shí)間記詞匯

詞匯復(fù)習(xí)要注意科學(xué)記憶，要適時(shí)強(qiáng)化復(fù)現(xiàn)以突破記憶瓶頸。英語學(xué)科與其他學(xué)科不同，識(shí)記符號(hào)多，所復(fù)習(xí)的內(nèi)容，當(dāng)晚或第二天早晨就要重溫，某一階段的內(nèi)容要定期回顧，要勤反復(fù)，不能等到徹底忘了再去重新識(shí)記。

其次要變換記憶方法。聯(lián)想比較記憶、理解性記憶、列表記憶、利用構(gòu)詞法記憶，用漢譯英記憶、口訣法記憶、諧音記憶、易錯(cuò)題強(qiáng)記等等可以穿插進(jìn)行。在記憶過程中要口動(dòng)、手寫，既要用功，更要用心。

第三，要利用一天中感覺最好的時(shí)間來記詞匯。這個(gè)最佳時(shí)間段因人而異，可以是早晨或下午，也可以是晚上。記憶信念要堅(jiān)定，欲望要強(qiáng)烈。

高中英語如何快速提分

1.非常重視課本。

當(dāng)然，考試絕對(duì)不會(huì)考課本上的文章。但是課本上的單詞一定要考。真正掌握單詞，除了記，還必須會(huì)用，能真正記住。反復(fù)閱讀課文，劃出里面的關(guān)鍵詞、短語和句型，在具體的語境中掌握。

然后，習(xí)慣背英語課文，可以是整篇課文，也可以是一兩段精彩的段落，看你的具體要求和實(shí)際情況。因?yàn)楸痴b是獲得英語語感的最好方法。我不知道是不是有些人天生就有語感，這是科技問題。至少我沒有先天的語感優(yōu)勢。我唯一可以用自己的經(jīng)歷證明的是，語感是可以通過后天的訓(xùn)練不斷增強(qiáng)的。

2.多讀英語書來提高你的英語理解能力。

多讀英語書將有助于提高你對(duì)英語文章的理解。英語和漢語有一定的區(qū)別。僅僅理解單詞的意思，就意味著不能真正理解整句話的意思。通過多看英文書，可以更好地理解英語的理解模式，有助于提高閱讀理解的解題能力。
