This cold，southernmost continent is an increasingly popular tourist destination. Its vast landscape of ice and snow，as well
19、as its wildlife population，attracts nature-loving vacationers and some tourists who enjoy activities like cross-country skiing. Others simply float through the area on board a cruise （乘船游览）. Whatever the reason people come to Antarctica，theyre coming. And its causing some controversy（争论）.But before
20、we get into that，lets look at some facts about Antarctica.Antarctica is a landmass located around the South Pole and it has more ice than any other place on Earth. In fact， 99. 5 percent of its landmass is covered with ice. During arctic winter，the ice sheet covering the continent gets even bigger.
21、Its shape is roughly round，with one arm reaching out toward South America. That is why many trips to Antarctica are via Argentina.Even during its warmest period，Antarcticas temperatures mostly stay below freezing. During the winter，they can drop to as low as minus 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The continen
22、t has little rain and its snow is dry and powdery（粉末状的） .Antarctica wasnt even formally explored until the 19th century. Today，though，many scientists and researchers call Antarctica their temporary home，living in special facilities when they study the ecosystem and native life.Since Antarctica has n
23、o human inhabitants，many nations have laid claim to it. However，the terms of the Antarctic Treaty state that the continent is reserved purely for scientific research. This also keeps Antarctica a war-free and nuclear-free zone. Currently，53 parties have signed the treaty.For those visitors who arent

27、 Antarctica?C Do you have the courage to travel in Antarctica?DCan you travel in Antarctica?DSome houses are designed to be smart. Others have smart designs. An example of the second type of house won an Award of Excellence from the American Institute of Architects.Located on the shore of Sullivans
28、Island off the coast of South Carolina, the award-winning cube-shaped beach house was built to replace one smashed to pieces by Hurricane（飓风）Hugo 10 years ago. Before Hugo, many new houses built along South Carolinas shoreline were poorly constructed, and enforcement of building rules wasnt strict,
29、according to architect Ray Huff, who created the cleverly-designed beach house. Soon after Hugo, all new shoreline houses are required to meet stricter, better-enforced rules. The new beach house on Sullivans Island should be able to withstand a Level 3 hurricane with peak winds of 179 to 209 kilome
30、ters per hour.At first sight, the house on Sullivans Island looks anything but hurricane-proof. Its redwood shell makes it resemble “a large party lantern (灯笼)” at night, according to one observer. But looks can be misleading. The houses wooden frame is reinforced with long steel rods to give it ext
31、ra strength.To further protect the house from hurricane damage. Huff raised it 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilingslong, slim wood pieces anchored deep in the sand. Pilings might appear insecure, but they are strong enough to support the weight of the house. They also raise the house above st
32、orm waves. The pilings allow the waves to run under the house instead of running into it. These waves come ashore at terrible speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings,” said Huff.Huff designed the timber pilings to be partially hidden by the houses ground-to-roof shell. “The
33、 shell masks the pilings so that the house doesnt look like its standing with its pant legs (裤腿) pulled up,” said Huff. In the event of a storm, the shell should break apart and let the waves rush under the house, the architect explained.32 After the Hurricane Hugo, new houses built along South Caro
