高二英语单项填空困难题查看答案及解析
Tayka Hotel de Sal
Where:Tahua, Bolivia
How much:about $95 a night
Why it's cool:You've stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That's something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds (though you'll sleep on regular mattresses and blankets). The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric driedup lake that's the world's biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633squaremile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
Green Magic Nature Resort
Where: Vythiri, India
How much: about $240 a night
Why it's cool: Riding a pulleyoperated(滑轮操控的) lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window—there is no glass—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy. Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel. You don't even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulleydrawn “elevator”.
Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
Where: Cottonwood, Idaho
How much: $92 a night
Why it's cool: This doghouse isn't just for the family pet. Sweet Willy is a 30foottall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps to the loft in Willy's head, or hang out inside his nose.
Gamirasu Cave Hotel
Where: Ayvali, Turkey
How much: between $130 and $475 a night
Why it's cool: Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65℉in summer.

Robots writing newspapers
Whether it’s robots working as hotel receptionists or artificial intelligence creating poetry, it’s becoming more and more common to read about technology doing the jobs of humans.
And now, it seems that software is even capable of writing news stories –such as the very one you’re reading.
Recently the Press Association (PA), a UK news service, has created a computer program that’s capable of creating articles that are almost impossible to tell apart from those written by human journalists.
Called “robo-journalism”, such software “teaches” itself by analyzing thousands of news stories written by humans. The PA’s software is already so advanced that many UK newspapers and websites publish articles created by it.
According to the Reuters Institute of Journalism, many publishers are using robo-journalism to release interesting information quickly, from election results to official figures on social issues. For example, The Washington Post has its own robo-journalism software, Heliograf. Heliograf “wrote “over 850 articles in 2017, as well as hundreds of social media posts.
So what does this mean for regular journalists?
“We’re naturally wary about any technology that could replace human beings,” Fredrick Kunkle, a Washington Post reporter, told Wired.
“But this technology seems to have taken over only some of the work that nobody else wants to do.” “Indeed, it appears that robo-journalism software is designed to help humans, rather than take away their jobs.
“In the future, Heliograf could do things like search the web to see what people are talking about, check The Washington Post to see if that story is being covered, and, if not, alert(提醒) editors or just write the piece itself.” Wired reporter Joe Keoha wrote.
However, Joshua Benton at Harvard University’s Nieman Journalism Lab believes that while robo-jounalism is undoubtedly going to become more present in newsrooms, nothing can replace traditional human creativity.
“Good journalism is not just a matter of inputs and outputs, it is a craft(技艺) that has developed over decades, “ he told BBC News. “The really difficult part of what professional journalists do----carefully weighing information and presenting balanced, contextualized(全景式的) stories ----will be very hard for machines to master.
1.What is the article mainly about?
A. Describling the first robo-journalism soft ware.
B. The introductions of robo-journalism and its strengths and weaknesses.
C. A comparison of news reports written by humans and robots.
D. A predictin of what will happen with robo-journalism in the future.
2.What message does Heliograf convey about robo-journalism software?
A. It has played a major role in news reporting.
B. It can help and cooperate with human journalists.
C. It can create news reports in a style better than that of humans.
D. It is a threat to regular journalists and their careers.
3.The underlined word “wary” has the closest meaning to ________.
A. guilty B. annoyed C. confident D. cautious
4.What does Joshua Benton think the future of human journalists is?
A. They will be replaced by robots in the near future.
B. They will need to be more professional in information input and output.
C. They will need to focus more on their creativity in writing.
D. They will have to learn news reporting from robots.

The hotel roof top bar will never go out of style. Whether it’s on the 6th floor or the 65th, there’s something undeniably appealing about dining, drinking, swimming and yoga-ing high above the streets of the city below. Here are some of the best (relative) newcomers.

The Winery Hotel, Sweden
It’s the sixth floor of this hotel in Solna, where the rooftop life comes alive. Along with a restaurant that serves wine, cocktails and spaghetti, the hotel hosts DJ sessions that create the sensation of being in a much larger city.
