• 3．Most people ride the bus to get from Point A to Point B，but riders taking a new route （路線） in Hong Kong are only interested in nap （小睡）.Ulu Travel Agency，a tour company in Hong Kong，has designed and provided a five-hour bus journey for customers to sleep as much as they want.Tickets for the first tour on Oct.16 sold out right away，The Washington Post reported.
     Many find it easy to fall asleep during a long bus trip.But why？According to smart sleeping tips，there are several possible reasons.
     ● White noise
     White noise is a type of noise produced by different sounds with different frequencies （頻率） together.Buses are often crowded every day with people getting on and off.Therefore，they are the perfect environment for white noise.White noise can help pay less attention to distracting （分心） sounds and it is helpful for people who have trouble getting sleep.
     ● Rocking movement
     Another popular view on why it's easy to fall asleep on buses is because of the rocking movement. "The movement of buses is like a mother swaying a baby in her arms.It is very comfortable，" Frankie Chow，founder of Ulu Travel Agency，told The Washington Post.
     ● Long periods of being inactive
     On buses，you don't move around very much.You just sit down and enjoy the scenery as the bus moves along the road.Basically，you're away from the things that keep your mind and your physical body busy.This also slows your brain activity down.
     ● Increase in carbon dioxide （二氧化碳）
     Buses often get crowded with people going to and from work.Carbon dioxide increases when there are lots of people in a small place.This reduces oxygen （氧氣） to the brain and slows it down，causing people to feel sleepy.
  
  （1）What can we learn about Ulu Travel Agency？

  
  A．It is a tour company in China.
  B．It provides a free-bus tour for sightseeing.
  C．It was set up by The Washington Post.
  （2）Why is white noise helpful for sleeping according to the text？

  
  A．Because it gives listeners something to focus on.
  B．Because it produces sounds with the same frequency.
  C．Because it makes people pay less attention to distracting sounds.
  （3）What does the underlined word "swaying" in Paragraph 4 mean？

  
  A．擁抱
  B．搖晃
  C．哼唱
  （4）What can we learn from the last two paragraphs？

  
  A．The moving sights outside is helpful for sleep.
  B．Long periods of being inactive are bad for one's health.
  C．The thinner oxygen inside the bus makes people sleepy.
  （5）What's the main purpose of the article？

  
  A．To develop tourism in Hong Kong.
  B．To introduce a new bus service in Hong Kong.
  C．To explain why the bus tour may help people sleep.

六、 閱讀下面的短文，將劃線部分譯成英文或中文。

• 9．Are you interested in geography？Do you know a famous geographer named Xu Xiake？In most people's opinion，（1）旅行可能是最好的老師。And there is no better example of this idea than the travel writer and geographer Xu Xiake.His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake 《徐霞客游記》，not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the country's land and geography.
      Born into a wealthy family，Xu became interested in books about different places at an early age and wanted to travel.Several years later，Xu's father died and （2）it seemed that it was impossible for him to achieve his travelling dreams. He was responsible for the family farm and taking care of his 60-year-old mother as tradition required.
      But his mother had different ideas.Understanding her son's love of travel and valuing the knowledge he could get from such experiences，this woman refused to keep her son at home.She agreed that Xu could travel for three months every year，when there was less farm work.（3）據(jù)說他在20歲的時候，開始了第一次旅行。 During this time，he travelled throughout the country，carefully studying the lands he passed through and recording his experiences and many discoveries in a diary.（4）This diary which had over 500，000 words became The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake in the end. Although rich，Xu avoided comfortable travel，preferring to go travelling on foot.（5）This way he could research the environment and get a true picture of the natural world.
