Guests must drive for miles through the jungle to find it in the middle of tea and coffee plantation (种植园).There are two tree houses to choose from, one 30 meters and the other 35 meters above the ground. Both houses have two floors. The bedrooms are above the living area and there are bathrooms and showers. You can get up to rooms and move between floors by using ladders (梯子). You can go from one tree house to the other on a rope bridge. The houses sometimes move about in the wind but the views are fantastic. Guests can enjoy moving through the jungle, climbing in the mountains, and watching wildlife. There are many unusual plants, birds, and insects in the area. The Ice Hotel is in Jukkasjarvi, a village in Sweden 200 kilometers north of the Arctic（北极）Circle. Every winter, a team of architects（建筑师）, designers and snow builders build the hotel. This year there are 80 rooms. Everything is made of ice. The walls, the floors, the ceilings（顶棚）, and even the furniture are made of ice.

The hotel has a bar, where guests can drink vodka（伏特加） from glasses made of ice. Its very popular because there isnt much else to do.

Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. However what most parents fail to realize is that todays children lack self-respect and self-confidence.Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.Cooking demands (要求)patience and time. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking. so he will learn to work hard and gradually(逐渐), finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self confidence.Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.52. According to this passage, parents in China_.A. are too strict with their children B. are too rich to educate their childrenC. have some problems in educating their children correctlyD. are too poor to educate their children53.
