9.Holidaymakers who are bored with baking beaches and overheated hotel rooms head for a big igloo.Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel,the world's first igloo hotel.Built in a small town in Lapland,it has been attracting lots of visitors,but soon the fun will be over.
In two weeks'time Bergqvist's ice creation will be nothing more than a pool of water."We don't see it as a big problem,"he says."We just look forward to replacing it."
Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991for an art exhibition.It was so successful that he designed the present one,which measures roughly 200square meters.Six workmen spent more than eight weeks piling 1,000tons of snow onto a wooden base; when the snow froze,the base was removed."The only wooden thing we have left in the igloo is the front door,"he says.
After their stay,all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success.With no windows,nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃,it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxing hotel break."It's great fun,"Bergqvist explains,"as well as a good start in survival training."
The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt:it is now attracting tourists from all over the world.At least 800people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10rooms."You can get a lot of people in,"explains Bergqvist."The beds are three meters wide by two meters long,and can fit at least four at a time."

32.When the writer says"the fun will be over,"in Paragraph 1,he refers to the fact thatC.
A.hotel guests will be frightened at the thought of the hard test
B.holidaymakers will soon get tired of the big igloo
C.Bergqvist's hotel will soon become a pool of water
D.a bigger igloo will replace the present one
33.According to the text,the first thing to do in building an igloo isD.
A.to gather a pool of water        
B.to pile a large amount of snow
C.to cover the ground with ice   
D.to prepare a wooden base
34.Which of the four pictures below is the closest to the igloo hotel as described inthe text?A

35We can infer from the passage thatB.
A.Bergqvist built his first igloo because he was inspired by an art exhibition
B.all visitors can get a survival certificate after the experience
C.the igloo attracts many people because it provides a relaxing hotel break
D.many people around the world are interested in trying something new.
6.It's rare that you see the words"shyness"and"leader"in the same sentence.After all,the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable guys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not.A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership.Interestingly,the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are quite shy-they're just better at adapting themselves to situational demands.Bill Gates,Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few"innies".
Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking,shy people take a cautious approach to chance.Rather than the flashy chit-chat that defines social gathering,shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak.They're not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking,but rather listening so they can learn what to say.Along the same lines,shy people share a common love of learning.They are intrinsically(内在地) motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.
Being shy can also bring other benefits.Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute,until shy little Johnny,who almost never said a word,cut in?Then what happened?Everyone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking.This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence:they"own"the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully,which translate to a positive image.
Shyness is often related to modesty.Not to say that limelight-seekers aren't modest,but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements.As a result,they are able to acknowledge mistakes,imperfections,knowledge gaps and limitations.
Since shy people have a lower sensitivity to outside rewards than outgoing ones,they're more comfortable working with little information and sticking to their inner desires.Shy people are also more likely to insist on finding solutions that aren't primarily apparent.Don't believe me?Maybe you'll believe Albert Einstein,who once said,"It's not that I'm so smart,it's that I stay with problems longer."Obviously,finding certainty where uncertainty is typically popular is a huge plus for any successful person.
The myth that shy people are less effective leaders than their outgoing fellows is just a misunderstanding.Make wise use of your personality strengths to lead your business no matter what side of the range you fall on.

A.shy people are sensitive to rewards
