6．Bali is，without doubt，one of the most culturally rich islands in the world．In fact，its carved temples，dances and rice terrace all seem too perfect to be true，even down to the people's smiled．But take a closer look at those smiles and the perfect seem a bit too perfect，and for good reason．Those flattened teeth are the result of an important piece of dentistry that every young Balinese man or woman experiences in their life，known as not performed for tooth filing（锉）
Tooth filing is part of Bali's religious tradition and is not performed for cosmetic（美容的） reasons．In fact，so important is the tooth filing ceremony that without it，the Balinese believe they may experience serous social or behavioral problems later in life，or their personality may change altogether．It is held to purify the body and mind，which is central to Balinese religious life．According to the Balinese，at every stage in a person's life，he or she is likely to be influenced by the supernatural-from demons and layak，to good spirits which may bring good luck．
The Balinese believe that long pointed teeth give the person the animal sides of human nature，such as desire，anger and greed．And those animal sides are more likely to show up when the teeth are sharp．To prevent this，the pints of the teeth are filed down，together with the points of the lower teeth in a potong gigi ceremony．However，people who have their teeth filed will suffer early tooth decay（蛀牙）since the protection is removed from the points of the teeth，exposing them to acid decay．
The potong gigi ceremony is usually performed for the members of the same family together since it is a very expensive occasion to host．It is often necessary to wait until the youngest child is of age．A special chair is to be made for the ceremony from bamboo covered with coconut leaves，blankets and flowers．Surrounding the platform is food the coning guests．

10．Hippos（河马）have always attracted people's interest．Modern hippos in Walt Disney movies can dance lightly．A stone hippo in a 13th-century church in France has wings．And in ancient Egyptian fairy tales，the hippo was a goddess that guided the dead to the afterworld．
Despite their popular appeal，hippos，as well as other animals，have difficulty when their needs conflict with those of humans．The early Egyptians liked to hunt hippos for their teeth and because they were dangerous animals．Amulets（护身符）to protect babies from demons（恶魔）were made from hippo bones．
About 4，000years ago，there were so many hippos in Egypt that they caused serious crop damage．Egyptian farmers killed them routinely，and by the beginning of the 19th century，all the hippos in Africa had been killed．
People used to see hippos fight in the arenas（角斗场）of ancient Rome．After the fall of the Roman Empire，hippos weren't seen in Europe again until a few zoos began to exhibit them in the mid 1800s．
All the various uses and abuses of hippos through the centuries have made their population fall greatly．Where they do occur，mostly in national parks，they live in such high density that they make the grasslands bare．This causes other grass-eating animals to go farther for food，and hippos，which can't live far from water，destroy their own feeding grounds．
32．In Africa，hippos became extinctD．
A．around the 1850s
B．in the 13th century

20．A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life．
Frank Hurley's pictures would be outstanding-undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism-if they had been made last week．In fact，they were shot from 1914through 1916，most of them after a disastrous shipwreck （海难），by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival．Many of the images were stored in an ice chest，under freezing water，in the damaged wooden ship．
The ship was the Endurance，a small，tight，Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists，27men in all，to the southernmost shore of Antarctica's Weddell Sea．From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled（雪橇） across the continent．The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done．Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912but had died with his four companions on the march back．
As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance，adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort．Scott's last journey，completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger，caught the world's imagination，and a film made in his honor drew crowds．Shackleton，a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100miles of the South Pole in 1908，started a business before his 1914voyage to make money from movie and still photography．Frank Hurley，a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic，was hired to make the images，most of which have never before been published．
33．What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley？D
A．They were made last week．
B．They showed undersea sceneries．
C．They were found by a cameraman．
D．They recorded a disastrous adventure．
34．Who reached the South Pole first according to the text？C

C．Robert Falcon Scott．
D．Caroline Alexander．
35．What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914voyage？C

C．Money making．
D．Treasure hunting．
