16.African SafariEssential information you need to know before booking your African Safari in Southern Africa-These tips will enhance the experience that you have.
Things to Consider Before Booking an African Safari
(1)Book in Advance
African Safaris are now hugely popular and good safari camps often get booked out more than a year in advance,especially during the high season from July through to October.
(2)Choosing which game park
Different parks have different topography and weather patterns-this greatly affects animal movements at different times of the year.If you want to target certain species of animals,then some parks are better than others for certain species.
(3)Choosing which lodge or safari camp
A typical safari camp has between 10 and 20 beds,it is an intimate safari experience and very personalized.However,there are also hotels in some places,either inside or just outside a national park,which can sleep anything up to 300 people.
(4)Guiding
The quality,experience and knowledge of the game at any Safari camp is almost the most important factor to consider.Good guides can transform your experience from ordinary to exceptional.
(5)What's the Best Time of Year to go on Safari
Understandably as the seasons change so does the safari experience.It is highly advisable to find out the best time of year for the safari area that you are intending to visit.Prices will change dramatically between the high and the low season,so good deals are to be had in the low season but it is important to know the difference,as your experience will be vastly different.
(6)The Price
Going on safari is not cheap whichever way you do it,but the price range can be enormous.Unfortunately,safaris in most cases are a case of"you pay for what you get".
(7)Fly-in safari or not
Using small charter planes is sometimes an absolute necessity for camps in remote areas,where road transfers are just not practical or viable.Thse flights can increase the overall cost of the safari substantially but generally they are worth it and allow you the flexibility to visit a variety of safari camps in different locations.
(8)Use an Agent
As you can see from all the information and options detailed above,there is great deal to understand and unless you go on safari several times a year it is impossible to know all this stuff.

4.Recent months have seen a revival of the humble(普通的)bike across China,with an increasing number of people choosing pedaling(骑车)instead of driving to school,to workplaces or to do sightseeing.The introduction of bike-sharing systems,services in which bicycles are made available for shared use to individuals who do not own them and pioneered by start-ups like Ofo and Mobike,has brought the trend to a new level.
Washington D.C.has one of the biggest bike sharing systems in the US with 3,700 bikes and 440 stations.The UK,France and Germany all have growing programs.However,China,so far,outdoes(超过)them all by operating three out of four of the world's shard bikes.
People can unlock the shard bikes by simply using their smartphone.The bikes are equipped with GPS and users of China's versions can leave bikes anywhere in public for the next user.They're popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the"last mile"problem,which refers to the final leg of a person's journey.
However,the Chinese programs have also led to problems such as illegal parking,vandalism(故意破坏)and theft.In fact,these problems are also shared by bike-sharing programs abroad.Launched in 2007,Véilb is a large-scale public bike sharing system in Paris.At its early stage of operation,it also suffered from problems of vandalism or theft.By Oct 2009,a large number of Vélib's initial bikes had to be replaced due to vandalism or theft,according to The New York Times.
To deal with these problems,the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time for their next rides.Now,Chinese service operators are also trying to address these problems.Fox example,Mobike sets a 100-point credit score for each user,with points taken in the case of bad behavior.Once a score drops below 80,bike rental is increased to 100 yuan per 30 minutes,up from 0.5-1yuan.

33.What can we learn about bike sharing systems?C
A.They offer free bike rides.
B.They are running perfectly.
C.China operates the biggest system.

A.promising but expensive.
B.convenient and eco-friendly.
C.eco-friendly but ineffective.
D.troublesome and meaningless.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?A
A.Shared Bikes Pedal into Style.
B.Problems with Bikes in China.
C.Shared Bikes Attract Young People.
D.Transportation Changes with the Times.
8.Rapid advances in a new technology will soon transform science fiction into reality--meaning people will have driverless cars,small robots at their command and the ability to experience being in another place without leaving home,predicted Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona,the planet's largest cell phone trade show.
Introduction of books available online,Internet translation of languages and voice recognition for computers all happened much faster than anyone could foresee and that technological research into even more previously unheard of advances is progressing at a fast speed.
"People who predict that holograms(全息图)and self-driving cars will become reality soon are absolutely right,"Schmidt told thousands of attendees.Research under way will lead to situations where people can put themselves at events like a rock concert so that they can see,hear and even feel the event.And turn down the volume,if it's too loud.
One attendee said she was scared that the possibility could be dehumanizing,but Schmidt replied by holding up his cell phone into the air."It has an off button and it is here on the right,"Schmidt said."My point is that it is all about your control.If you don't like my version of a rock concert,I'm not forcing you to go."In the future,small robots could be used so busy people can send them to events for video and voice transmissions when their presence isn't required,Schmidt said.
Technology in the near future will redefine the relationship among people in the world."With technology comes power and with power comes choice,and smarter resourceful citizens are going to demand a better deal for their new life,"Schmidt said.
