题目内容
11.When I first heard about geocaching(地理寻宝),I was skeptical.But the more I thought about it,the more it seemed like an interesting idea.I at least wanted to try it once.Having familiarized myself with how the game works,I set out in search of my first cache.My trip took me through a series of lively hutong (胡同),past a number of small temples,and right into the courtyard of a quiet youth hotel.I spent several minutes looking around,but couldn't find anything.Just before I was about to give up,I spotted a colorful object in the crack of a wall.Could it be the hidden cache?
At that moment a group of backpackers arrived.According to the game's rules,people who are not in the game must not be allowed to find out about secret caches.So I pretended to make a phone call while waiting for them to leave.When the coast was clear,I grabbed the object.It was the cache!I opened it and pulled out a crumpled (皱的) sheet of paper with several names and celebratory messages written on it.I added my own and replaced the cache in its hiding place,ready for the next geocacher to find.
It may seem like a simple game,but the idea that there are caches hidden all around us is exciting.Once you're hooked,it's easy to set yourself the goal of finding every single cache in a neighborhood or even an entire city.The real treasure,however,is not the cache itself,but the places it takes you to.
Hunting for further caches has since introduced me to places which I didn't even know existed.Some are peaceful parks,while others are forgotten historical sites.A few caches have even been in places I passed regularly without giving them any thought.Now,I feel a much closer connection.

Space Adventures is taking reservations for the flights,(41)H to the first manned spaceflights.The trip will cost﹩90,000,with a﹩6,000 (42)G required.More than 200people have made reservations,said Sarah,Dalton,the company spokeswoman.
John Spencer of the Space Tourism Society says that a more realistic(43)K for regular space travel is 50years.Issues of expense,difficulty,and danger must still be resolved.Oh yes-a reusable vehicle must also be invented.He adds,however,that ten years from now,a(44)D number of people may be able to visit a space station.He says he expects a fleet of private space vehicles or"space yachts"(游艇) to be in (45)B in 20to 25years.They will do what he calls"orbital super yachting."After that,there will be cruise lines,like those that travel the Earth's oceans,as well as space hotels and resorts.
There have been only a few studies to determine the public's interest in space tourism,but they all conclude that a (46)Eof people would like to visit space and would be willing to pay good money for it.
According to expert Patrick Collins,between 5million and 20million people will head for space by 2030.He also (47)A 100flights a day leaving Earth.It would be (48)Jto have more than 100hotels in Earth's orbit(轨道),a few more orbiting the moon,and a few on the moon's surface.These hotels would (49)C more than 100,000people,who would work month-long shifts.Each hotel would have a service station.Such service stations would provide oxygen,water,and hydrogen.They might also ship(50)F safe electric power back to Earth.
If all the issues can be resolved,Collins says that space tourism could one day become a﹩1trillion.
