While you visit the happiest place on Earth,I hope you don't hear these two phrases—or the tour might be about to turn into a nightmare.
Disney World and Disneyland are well-known for being the happiest places in the world,but sometimes,some bad things happen.When they do,staff have code words to let other staff know what has taken place without destroying your perfectly happy day with terrible details.
According to the New York Post,one of the code words you can hear a worker say at Disney World is "White Powder Alert".A "White Powder Alert" means that a guest has brought the ashes of their dead relatives in order to make the happiest place on Earth their final resting place.According to Susan Veness,author of Walt Disney World Hacks,this most commonly occurs on the Haunted Mansion ride.This is both illegal and can get you banned from Disney forever.
The second Disney code word you never want to hear is "E-stop".This one is a bit more straightforward(直截了當(dāng)?shù)模?and isn't used just for Disney.In order to remain as perfectly clear in an emergency situation as possible,workers in most amusement parks use the same phrase.It means "Emergency Stop".If a ride must be shut down due to a sanitary(衛(wèi)生的)issue-like someone getting sick or pouring ashes-or a safety issue,an E-stop is called and the ride is instantly shut down while park officials decide if the ride should be evacuated(疏散)immediately or simply paused for maintenance.No matter what code words are said,you'll never want to hear a Disney cast member use these words.
(1)Why do staff in Disneyland use code words? BB
A.They make other staff know situations better.
B.They try to make tourists have a good day.

1.Each year on Halloween,children look forward to trick-or-treating (不請客就搗亂) for candies.But for some kids,eating Halloween candies can be dangerous.
That's because one out of every 13 kids in the Us have a food allergy(過敏癥).They are allergic to ingredients(成分)in many Halloween candies,such as peanuts,tree nuts,milk,eggs,and beans.If they eat these foods,they will get sick or even die.
"I had to throw away all my candies with tears," eight-year-old Conlen said.Conlen is allergic to peanuts,tree nuts,and dairy.Twelve-year-old Kylie is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts.She has been trick-or-treating only twice. "I brought my candies home and gave them to the neighbors," Kylie said. "It felt terrible."
But this year,Conlen,Kylie and other kids with food allergies will have a chance for a happy Halloween.That's because nearly 100,000 households across the US have promised to take part in the Teal Pumpkin Project(TPP),which was started last year by Food Allergy Research & Education(FARE).FARE is an organization that works to improve the lives of people with food allergies.Through the project,the households agree to have nonfood items for trick-or-treaters,including trinkets(小飾品) and toys.
To take part in the project,people buy a teal(藍(lán)綠色) pumpkin or paint a pumpkin teal and place it in front of their house.The painted pumpkins let trick-or-treaters know that nonfood items are available there.The households also add their home addresses to an online map,making it easier for trick-or-treaters to find them.
Kylie loves the idea."The TPP makes Halloween fun and safe," she said."It makes me feel like a normal kid,and it makes everyone feel included."
(1)To Conlen and Kylie,the past Halloween were
A.upsetting and dangerous
B.interesting and special
C.sick and terrible
D.important and exciting
(2)According to the passage,we know that FARE
A.helps people with food allergies recover

A.giving them teal pumpkins as gifts
B.offering them all kinds of food except candies
C.providing them with trinkets and toys as treats
D.a(chǎn)sking them for home addresses and sending them gifts
(4)Where is the passage most probably taken from?

D.A research paper on kid's health.發(fā)布:2024/12/19 20:30:1組卷:36引用:3難度:0.7 -

3.Besides the excitement of travel,one reason to study abroad is that you will experience new customs,holidays,foods,art,music,and politics first-hand.
"I learned the language and am now fluent,but perhaps what's more important is how much I learned about cultures,people,and myself.I learned this from the viewpoint of an active member of the community and my host family,not from the tourist's point of view," says Andrew,who studied in Poitiers,F(xiàn)rance.
Another reason for studying abroad is that you'll gain self-confidence.Christina studied in Caracas,Venezuela,a city of more than 3 million people and a huge change from her hometown of 35,000!Christina says she learned how to better stand up for herself and her beliefs and to express herself in another language.What could make you more confident than that?
Living away from home can also help you adjust in the transition(過渡)to college and adulthood.Mathew says he returned from studying in Australia with confidence and a real interest in international affairs that made him different from his peers(同齡人). "After having gone abroad in high school,I found the transition to college a breeze—moving 560 miles from home didn't seem particularly frightening after having lived thousands of miles away."
Most of all,it's fun while you're studying in a different learning environment.
(1)What is the passage mainly about?
A.Learning a language.
B.The excitement of travel.

D.The benefits of studying abroad.
