9.A contest organised by Airbnb is offering three lucky winners the chance to spend a night in the company of sharks.The winners and their guests will get access to a transparent(透明的)glass bedroom in the 33-foot deep Paris Aquarium where 35 sharks are living.Interested applicants,who must be 18 years or older and in good health,can apply for the contest through the Airbnb website."On the 11th,12th,and 13th of April,the Paris Aquarium will open its doors for a night in a room full of sharks,"the website states."And not just any room:you will sleep in a round bed,with a breathtaking view of the world of sharks."
The unusual event will be hosted by a free diver,photographer,and shark enthusiast Fred Buyle,and a biologist will provide the winners with a special course on sharks-their mysterious lives and their role in the ocean's ecosystem,with which the winners can better understand the sharks and thus avoid disturbing their life in the aquarium when they stay there.
Upon arrival,the winners will first be taken to their room for presentations,followed by dinner at the shark tunnel and a night stay among the sharks.A twin bed,soap,toilet paper,and shampoo are all included in the package,as well as breakfast the next morning.The stay is completely free,and so is the travel arrangement to and from Paris.
Applications must also include a message addressed to the judges.In 50to 500characters,applicants must explain why they're the perfect candidate for the event.The choices of languages include English,German,Spanish,French,Italian and Portuguese.In case of Chinese,Japanese,and Korean,the word limit is between 50and 300.Remember that other languages are not allowed.Of course,an Airbnb account is a must requirement for every applicant.
If selected,the winners will be forbidden from diving or swimming in the aquarium,and will be required to keep their hands and feet indoors at all times.Photographing is not allowed because sharks are sensitive to light.Besides,the organisers advise against watching movies like Jaws before checking in.
