Q My husband and I would like to spend five or six days in the Maldives. Could you

suggest some low-priced hotels? We'll be there in November. Jan Davies, email.

A Prices in the Maldives are high. The cheaper hotels (and there aren't many) mightn't

be much to look at, with unpleasant rooms, iron roofs, old buildings, poor and rough

vegetation and basic facilities, but they get their atmosphere from cheerful customers

and an untidy, free island feel.

Angaga (South Ari Atoll, phone 0011 960 450510), Asdu Sun Island (North Male

Atoll, emailinfo@asdu.com.mv) are both a bit like this.

You'll be there in the low season (May to November), when its' still warm, but

there's a greater likelihood of rain, so you should be able to get a double (standard )

room with full board (three meals a day) for $ 100 a night.

However, pricing structures for the hotels are enormously complex for standard,

superior and luxurious rooms.

Q My husband and I are from Australia. We are planning a four-week trip to London, Dublin and Paris in October and we are shocked by the cost of hotels. We have

searched the Internet and hotel books given to us by tourist authorities but we can't

find anything cheaper than $ 150 a night.

Joan Maloney, email.

A For Australians traveling Europe, especially its capital cities, is expensive. You may

have to increase your budget . However, if you can't afford these costs, then you

should consider staying in hotels where the cheapest twin rooms with shared bathroom

cost about$20 a person in Dublin and Paris and $35 in London. The minimum you

would pay for a double room in a central area is $50 a person in Dublin and Paris and

$70 in London. These prices are for shared bathroom facilities, though you will get a

wonderfully unhealthy cooked breakfast thrown in.

Not all hotels are equal, of course, and it's a good idea to consult a guidebook with

a good reputation.

【题目】In the famous fairy tale, Snow White eats the Queen's apple and falls victim to a curse(诅咒);in Shakespeare's novel, Romeo drinks the poison and dies; some ancient Chinese emperors took pellets(药丸)that contained mercury(水银), believing that it would make them immortal, but they died afterward.

Poison has long been an important ingredient in literature and history, and it seems to always be associated with evil, danger and death. But how much do you really know about poison?

An exhibition, The Power of Poison, opened last month at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, intended to give the audience a more vivid understanding of poison.

The museum tour starts in a rainforest setting, where you can see live examples of some of the most poisonous animals: caterpillars(毛毛虫), frogs and spiders. Golden poison frogs, for instance, aren't much bigger than a coin, but their skin is covered with a poison that can cut off the signaling power of your nerves, and a single frog has enough venom to kill 10 grown humans.

"Poisons can be bad for some things," Michael Novacek, senior vice president of the museum, told NBC News. "Yet they can also be good for others."

A poisonous chemical found in the yew tree is effective against cancer, which is what led to the invention of a cancer-fighting drug called Taxol.

The benefits from natural poisons are not limited to just medicine. Believe it or not, many substances(物质)that we regularly ingest(摄入)-chili, coffee and chocolate-owe their special flavors or stimulating(提神的)effects to chemicals that plants make to poison insects.

1What does the underlined word "immortal" in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. happy B. not moral

C. living forever D. sick

2What is the main purpose of the exhibition The Power of Poison?

A. To give people more in-depth knowledge about poison.

B. To teach people how to handle poisonous animals.

C. To inform people about which animals are the most poisonous.

D. To show how poison has been used for medical treatment.

3Which of the following statements about the Golden poison frog is TRUE according to the article?

A. Its skin can cut off the signaling power of your nerves.

B. It's about the size of a coin.

C. It's the most poisonous animal on display.

D. You can only see it in a rainforest setting of the museum.

4The stimulating effects of coffee come from ________.

A. natural poison made by the plant

B. the substances that we regularly ingest

C. chemicals produced by poisonous insects

D. its special flavor
