　　THE EARTH CENTRE

　　You might have heard about the centre of the earth but have you heard of the Earth Centre? It is a new South Yorkshire attraction—a theme park with a difference.

　　Why does the Earth Centre attract visitors from all over the world? Because it is the world’s first sustainable(可持续的)development park and it aims to promote the idea of sustainable development to all ages. Here you will get to see the world in a way you have never seen it before.

　　☆________________________________________________________________________

　　There are many impressive attractions. Here are just a few：

　　·“Nature works” which explore pond life found in the various habitats of the Earth Centre. You don’t just look—if you want you can catch and handle these creatures too.

　　·The Water Cycle Simulator which allows you to speed around the planet.

　　·The Living Machine—a full－scale sewage(污水) treatment system for the Earth Centre that uses plants and micro－organisms to create water safe enough to drink.

　　·Daredevil outdoor activities—if you’re feeling adventurous, try the climbing wall.

　　In addition, there are 400 acres of the Country Park to explore with woods, lakes and a wealth of wildlife.

　　☆ Food and drink

　　If you get hungry—no problem! The Centre has its own café serving a range of delicious snacks and meals—all organic of course.

　　☆ Shop

　　If you feel like spending some money, you can call at the Earth Shop where you can buy “sustainability products” such as organic cotton T－shirts.

　　☆ How to get there

　　By Road—Leave the AIM at Junction 36 and follow the brown Earth Centre signs along the A630, then the A6023 towards Mexborough. The Earth Centre is next right after Conisbrough Railway Station.

　　By Rail—Conisbrough station is next to the entrance to the Earth Centre and is on the Doncaster to Sheffield line.

　　Ⅳ.阅读填空

　　阅读短文，根据所读内容在表中的空格处填上适当的单词或短语。注意：每空不超过3个单词。

　　If you smoke and you still don’t believe that there’s a definite link between smoking and bronchial(支气管) troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Let us just say that you are suffering from a bad case of wishful thinking. This needn’t make you too uncomfortable because you are in good company. Whenever the subject of smoking and health is raised, the governments of most countries hear no evil, see no evil and smell no evil. Admittedly, a few governments have taken timid measures. In Britain for instance, cigarette advertising has been banned on television while the population continues to puff its way to smoky, cancerous death.

　　You don’t have to look very far to find out why the official reactions to medical findings have been so lukewarm. The answer is simply money. Tobacco is a wonderful kind of commodity to tax. It’s almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so deliberately that smoking may be harmful, it doesn’t do to shout too loudly about it.

　　But if the governments of the world were honestly concerned about the welfare of their people, you’d think they’d conduct aggressive anti－smoking campaigns. Far from it! The tobacco industry is allowed to spend huge sums on advertising. Its advertising is as crafty(诡计多端的)as it is dishonest. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lungs early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements always show strong, even clean－shaven young men. They suggest it is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great open－air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness. What nonsense!

　　For a start, governments could begin by banning all cigarette and tobacco advertising and should then conduct anti－smoking advertising campaigns of their own. Smoking should be banned in all public places like theatres, cinemas and restaurants. Great efforts should be made to inform young people especially of the consequences of taking up the habit. A horrific warning and a picture of a death’s head should be included in every packet of cigarettes that is sold.

　　As individuals, we are certainly weak, but if governments acted honestly and courageously, they could protect us from ourselves.
