"It's warm,it's fun and it won't break the bank (耗尽资源) "goes the ad for a wellknown package holiday group. The top billing given to temperature in the slogan illustrates just how im?portant climate is to holidaymakers. It's one of the first things you notice when you step off the plane―part of the " sense of place" which academics talk about.

Australia is a big country,stretching from the tropics to the roaring forties,and it has a correspondingly wide range of climates. There's something to suit everyone!Scubadivers like the warm waters off the tropical Queensland coast;sunlovers feel at home in central Australia's hot,dry climate. The cool temperate climate of the Australian Alps in the southeast of the conti?nent attracts skiers in winter and walkers in summer.

What is the best time of year to visitAustralia? It depends on what part of the country you will be visiting and what you would like to do. If you can stay for several months,you can plan your trip to catch the best weather everywhere.

Australia can be divided into six main climatic regions or zones on the basis of air tempera?ture and humidity. Our map shows where each region is. A description of each region's climate is given below,from the viewpoint of someone accustomed to a temperate climate. People from tropical climates will tolerate the heat better than indicated in the zone descriptions,but will feel less comfortable in the cooler parts of the country. The climate zones are：

Makeup advertisements featuring actor Julia Roberts and supermodel Christy Turlington have been banned in the UK because of their controversial use of "airbrushing"(图像"磨皮”工具) .

Britain's Advertising Standards Agency 1        the ban after politician Jo Swinson com?plained about the two ads,for foundation products made by L'Oreal's Maybelline and Lancome brands. L'Oreal 2       the photographs 3        used had been digitally manipulated (电子处理) and retouched. But the cosmetics giant claimed they " accurately 4        the effects their make?up ―Maybelline's The Eraser antiageing foundation and Lancome's Teint Miracle ― could 5       .

Swinson,who has waged (致力于) a longrunning campaign against the use of "unrealistic" images in fashion and 6       ,said it was " shocking" that the ASA had not been allowed to see the original version of the Roberts 7       " It shows just how ridiculous things have become 8        there is such fear over an unairbrushed photo 9        even the advertising regulator isn't permitted to see it."

The Scottish MP 10       the ban,and said it should act as a wakeup call to advertisers,urging them to "get 11       to 12       . ” "Pictures of flawless (无瑕的) skin and superslim bodies are all around,but they don't reflect reality," she said. "With one 13        four people feeling depressed about their body,it's time to consider how these idealised images are distorting our idea of beauty. " Excessive (过分的) airbrushing and digital manipulation techniques have be?come the norm (规范，标准) ，but 14       Christy Turlington and Julia Roberts are 15        beauti?ful women who don't need retouching to look great.

Both Maybelline and Lancome said they were " disappointed" 16       the ASA's ruling,in?sisting that The Eraser and Teint Miracle were scientifically proven,and pointing to consumer tests which showed users were 17        with their 18       .

It is not the first time their parent company L'Oreal has fallen foul ofBritain's advertising authorities. In 2007,a TV advertisement for its Telescopic mascara        (睫毛骨) 一featuring actor Penelope Cruz ― was 19        for failing to make clear she had been wearing 20        eyelashes.

British Columbia is the third largest Canadian provinces,both in area and population. It is nearly 1. 5 times as large as Texas,and 1       800 miles (1,280km) north from the United States border. It includes Canada's entire west coast and the islands just 2        the coast.

Most of British Columbia is mountainous,with long rugged ranges 3        north and south. Even the coastal islands are the 4        of a mountain range that existed thousands of years ago. During the last Ice Age,this range was scoured by glaciers until most of 5       was 6       the sea. Its peaks now show as islands 7        along the coast.

The southwestern coastal region has a humid mild marine 8       . Sea winds that blow in?land from the west are warmed by a current of warm water that flows 9        the Pacific Ocean. As a result,winter temperatures average above 10        and summers are mild. These warm western winds also carry 11        from the ocean.

Inland from the coast,the winds from the Pacific 12        the mountain barriers of the coast?al ranges and the Rocky Mountains. As they 13        to cross the mountains,the winds are cooled,and their moisture begins to fall as 14       ,On some of the western slopes almost 200 inches (500cm) of rain fall each year.

More than half of British Columbia is 15        forested. On mountain slopes that receive plentiful rainfall,huge Douglas firs rise in towering columns. These 16       giants often grow to be as much as 300 feet (90m) tall,17       diameters up to 10 feet (3m) . More lumber is 18        from these trees than from any other kind of trees in North 19       . Hemlock,red cedar,and balsam fir are among the other trees 20        in British Columbia.

Why does cream go bad faster than butter? Some researchers think they have the answer,and it 1        down to the 2        of the food,not its chemical composition―a finding that could help 3        some processed foods of chemical preservatives (防腐剂) .

Cream and butter 4        pretty much the same substances,so why cream should sour much faster has been a mystery. Both are emulsions (孚L状液) 一tiny globules (小球体) of one liquid evenly distributed throughout another. The difference 5        in what's in the globules and what's in the surrounding liquid,says Brocklehurst,who led the 6      .

In cream,fatty globules drift 7        in a sea of water. In butter,globules of a watery solu?tion are locked away in a sea of 8.        The bacteria which make the food go bad 9        to live in the watery regions of the mixture. "This means that in cream,the bacteria are 10        to grow throughout the mixture," he says.

When the situation is 11       ,the bacteria are locked away in compartments (间隔室) bur?ied deep in the sea of fat. 12       in this way,individual colonies cannot spread and 13        run out of nutrients (养料) .They also slowly 14        themselves with their waste products. "In but?ter,you get a selflimiting system which stops the bacteria 15       ," says Brocklehurst.

The researchers are already working with food companies 16        to see if their products can be made resistant 17        bacterial attack through alterations to the food's structure. Brockle?hurst believes it will be possible to 18        the emulsions used in salad cream,for instance,more like 19        in butter. The key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream 20        and not turning it into a solid lump.
