Questions 1~5
In a bay near Almeria in Southern Spain will be built the world's first underwater
residence for tourists. The hotel will be 40 feet down in the Mediterranean. As all
the world opened to tour operators, there was still a frontier behind which lay three
quarters of the globe's surface, the sea; in whose cool depths light fades; no winds
blow; there are no stars. There even the most bored travelers could recapture their
sense of romance, terror or beauty. For a submerged hotel is such a beautiful idea.
The hotel will cost 170,000 and will be able to accommodate up to ten people a night.
Up until now only scientists and professional divers have lived under the sea, but
soon, for the first time, the public will be able to go down into the darkness. They
will have to swim down in diving suits, but at 40 feet there would be no problem
about decompression.
Design of the hotel was crucial. Most of the underwater structures used before had
been in the
shape of a diving bell or submarine. Professional divers could cope
with such things but ordinary people would run the risk of violent claustrophobia.
Then an Austrian architect had the idea of making three interconnecting circular
structures, 18 feet in diameter, and looking much like flying saucers. They
would
be cast
from the shore. Towed into position they would
then be sunk. A foundation of cast concrete would already be in place on the sea-
bed. Pylons would attach the structures to this. Once in position the structures
would be pumped dry. The pylons made to withstand an uplift pressure of 350 tons,
would then take the strain.
in concrete and
launched
Cables linking the underwater structures to the hotel on shore would connect it with
electricity, fresh water, television, and an air pump, and also dispose of sewage.
Entry would be from underneath, up a ladder; because of the pressure inside there
would be no need of airlocks or doors.
The first structure would include a changing room and a shower area, where the divers
would get out of their gear. There would also be a kitchen and a lavatory. The second
structure would contain a dining room/ lecture theatre, and sleeping accommodation
for eight people. The third structure would contain two suites. A steward would come
down with the ten customers, to cook and look after them. Television monitors would
relay all that went on to the shore so that discussions on the sea bed could be
transmitted to all the world.
1.From the passage we understand that tour operators and travelers will be interested
in the submerged hotel as ___________.
(A) it is a quiet place for research work (B) it is an ideal sea- food restaurant
(C) it will offer new possibilities (D) it will have unchanging weather
(B) Three linked
(B) 350 tons in weight
2. What design was finally considered most suitable for the new hotel?
(A) Three separated circles.
discs.
(D) Three interlocked cylinders.
(C) Three connected globes.
3. The hotel would be able to float under water because it would be ____________.
(A) made of light material
(D) attached to pylons
(C) filled with air
4. It is planned that sleeping quarters will be provided for the guests in the
__________.
(A) second structure
structures
(C) first and third structures
5. The purpose of television monitors under the sea would be to relay ____________.
(A). instructions from the sea bed to the shore
(B). news from the shore to the sea bed
(C).information from the world to the sea bed
(D). information to the world from the sea bed
Questions 6~10
For most people, boasting about oneself does not come naturally. It is not easy or

to the one you have.
(B) second and third
(D) third structure
Of course, there is a fine line between self- confidence and arrogance, so to be
successful in winning over the interviewer you must learn to maximize your
accomplishments and attributes without antagonizing the interviewer.
The natural tendency for most job seekers is to behave modestly in a job interview.
To do the best job of selling yourself in an interview, you have to be prepared in
advance. As part of your job-

for years, evidence linking depression to an increased risk of heart attack has been
growing. Johns Hopkins researchers interviewed
1551 people who were free of heart
disease in the early 1980s and again
14 years later. Those who reported having
experienced major depression were four times as likely to have a heart attack as
those who had not been depressed.

Exercise is an often overlooked antidepressant. In a study at Duke University, 60
percent of clinically depressed people who took a brisk 30- minute walk or jog at
least three times a week were no longer depressed after 16 weeks.

More than 50 years ago French scientist Jean Vague noted that people with a lot of
upper- body fat (those who looked like apples rather than pears) often developed
heart disease, diabetes and other ailments. But
