BEIJING, July 8 (Xinhuanet)--- A new hotel concept has been realized in a village in Northern Sweden, which aims to make the simple treehouse become a world-class destination for travellers. The Treehotel, located in a place called Harads, will consist of four rooms when it opens on July 17th: the Cabin, the Blue Cone, the Nest, and the Mirrorcube.
Two additional rooms are scheduled to open in October. The long term vision(想象) is even more expansive. “Our goal in five years is to have 24 rooms from 24 different architects,” says Treehotel co-founder Kent Lindvall.
The first six rooms were designed by five different architects. The Mirrorcube which stands four meters high and four meters wide, and the walls of which are made with a mirrored glass, has drawn widespread attention as it will be attached to a single tree. “It’s an interesting building. You can’t find anything else like this in the world today. It’s unique(獨特的),” says Lindvall. “Everything will reflect in it---the trees, the birds, the clouds and the sun in the forest. So it could hardly be seen in the forest. This is untouched forest and we want to keep it the same way.”
Lindvall says the Treehotel’s vision proves a powerful draw, with enquiries(詢問) coming in from far and wide. “I think what’s exciting here is that we’re just 60 km below the Arctic Circle. It means there’s a good possibility to have the northern lights in the winter and of course to have the midnight sun in the summer.”
The motto of the Treehotel is “Feel Free in a Tree” and expense will cost up to about $555.50 for two guests in the Cube, which is designed to hold up to four guests.
【小題1】The underlined word “expansive” probably means _____.

A.costing a lot of money
B.covering a large area
C.requiring knowledge and skills
D.increasing suddenly and rapidly
【小題2】According to the passage, the Mirrorcube is a unique building because _____.
A.everything can reflect in it
B.it’s large with plenty of space
C.there is a large mirror wall in it
D.it has limited effect on local wildlife
【小題3】Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.The Treehotel is ideally situated to enjoy the natural wonders.
B.The Treehotel is a great base to explore the many local places of interest.
C.Travellers can have a relaxed holiday at a reasonable price in the Treehotel.
D.The six rooms of the Treehotel was separately designed by 6 different architects.

BabyCare works on a one-to-one basis. Doctors, nurses, and teachers paid by BabyCare advise parents, explain toys that a re de signed for children at each stage of development to age six.

Beijing — Premier Wen Jiabao has urged the leadership of all countries to deepen their political will in dealing with climate change woes (災難) as uncertainties mount (增長) in the months before the United Nation’s conference in Cancun, Mexico, at the end of this year.

Wen made the remarks on Friday when he met with nearly 20 politicians, climate change and environmental ministers worldwide, who are in Beijing this weekend to attend an international forum on green economy and climate change.

Based on the achievements made at the Copenhagen Summit last December, Wen urged the rich countries to further make clear their compulsory carbon reduction targets. “At the same time, we developing countries should make clear our voluntary goal of slowing down climate change,” Wen said.

Wen also urged the developed countries to transfer(轉讓)climate change friendly technologies to the developing countries, especially the poorest countries and island nations.

During the meeting, Wen said China will redouble its efforts in reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency during the coming years after it finishes its 2006-2010 goal of cutting energy consumption per unit of economic output by 20 percent.

While praising China for its green efforts, former Australian Prime Minister Robert J. Lee Hawke asked China to share its experiences and lessons on energy savings and pollution reduction to the rest of the world to deal with global environmental woes and climate change.

Wen responded: “China, together with the rest of the world, is willing to make its due contribution in coping with global warming and climate change.”

At a banquet for the foreign guests on Friday night, former vice-premier Zeng Peiyan said “Increasing uncertainties are ahead for the climate change negotiations. The world needs more dialogue and cooperation”.

“Climate change woes are our shared challenges but the root lies in the historical emissions by the developed countries,” said Zeng, as president of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, which organized the weekend climate change summit.

Zeng expected the forum to work as a platform for different countries to communicate their positions freely before the Bonn climate change negotiation in June and the Cancun conference at the end of this year.

1.Which title suits this passage best?

A. We must work on climate change.

B. We should share our ‘green’ technology.

C. We need to clarify our action targets.

D. We ought to cooperate to control the climate.

2. The underlined part in the last paragraph but one implies ________.

A. Air pollution just existed in the developed countries in the past.

B. In the past, the developed countries slowed down the development of the world.

C. Climate change woes were originally caused by the developed countries.

D. The rich countries should be more responsible since they polluted most.

3. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.

A. The Chinese government intends to be regarded as a developed country.

B. The whole world has got the same opinion about the measures to take.

C. The developed countries have not found any effective ways to cut their emissions.

D. There is still a long way to go before an agreement can be reached.

4.Why did Wen Jiabao urge the developed countries to clarify their carbon reduction targets?

A. Because the developed countries are not willing to deal with global environmental woes.

B. Because the developing countries have not set any goal of slowing down climate change.

C. Because there are mounting uncertainties ahead for the climate change negotiations.

D. Because agreements were already made at the Copenhagen Summit last December.
