The Green Magic Tree House, in India, is the perfect hotel for anybody who likes adventure（冒險(xiǎn)）. Guests must drive for miles through the jungle to find it in the middle of tea and coffee plantation (種植園).
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（北極）Circle. Every winter, a team of architects（建筑師）, designers and snow builders build the hotel. This year there are 80 rooms.
Everything is made of ice. The walls, the floors, the ceilings（頂棚）, and even the furniture are made of ice. The beds are made of ice, too, but guests sleep on warm deer skins. Outside it can be -37℃, so inside it feels quite comfortable. The hotel has a bar, where guests can drink vodka（伏特加） from glasses made of ice. It's very popular — because there isn't much else to do.
To spend a night at Jules Underwater Lodge in Florida, guests need to scuba dive (潛水) seven meters under the sea. They enter a small house through a door at the bottom of the building. Inside, the kitchen is stored with food and there is a fridge and a microwave oven(微波爐). There is a hot shower and comfortable beds and lots of books, DVDs and video games. Most guests, however, spend their time at one of the large windows watching different fishes swimming by.

Now satellites are  1  to forecast（預(yù)報(bào)）the weather. They are in space, and they can    2  any part of the world．The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大氣）， 3 this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these  4  to the weather stations. So meteorologists（氣象學(xué)家）can see the weather of any part of the world．From the pictures, the scientists can often say 5    the weather will change.

Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier  6 . Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the    7    on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.

So the weather satellites are a great    8    to the meteorologists.    9 __satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may     10    forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.
