(★★★) For people who never complain about the cold, can take or leave showers and would get used to noises, ideal jobs have come up. A heritage charity is advertising vacancies at the bottom of the world. Based in Antarctica, successful applicants will have to adapt to near-constant daylight, subzero temperatures and no flushing toilet or running water. But what incredible upsides: penguins and breathtaking landscapes in the polar area. The UK Antarctic heritage Trust said it was seeking“ passionate adventurers ready to take on the challenge of a lifetime” in jobs that included managing a museum, post office and gift shop as well as conducting penguin counts. Those selected will live and work at Base A at Port Lockroy on Goudier Island. Bridie Martin-West, a 33-year-old midwife, is the current base leader. She said. “We get the wonder of seeing humpback and minke whales go past. On one side of the island we have the most majestic mountain range and on the other side we’ve got a glacier with icebergs. It is really raw nature and stunningly beautiful.” The team arrived on the island at the same time as gentoo penguins for their breeding season. The penguins are known for their loud, head-back trumpet call, but Martin-West said, “Having come from living in London it is still much quieter here…” A typical evening might be watching films, playing board games or carrying on an Antarctic tradition of people giving presentations on subjects they know something about. Applications were opened yesterday to UK residents, with training beginning in August. There will be interviews and selection events before then. Martin-West recalled being asked to put up tents blindfold while wearing oven gloves. She said, “The training was like a cross between boot camp and a reality TV show. It is very full on. It is a lot of work, some of which is quite physical.”4. What is the meaning of the underlined word “upsides”? A．Changes.B．Advantages.C．Opportunities.D．Challenges.5. What can you learn from Paragraph 4? A．Martin-West preferred to stay in London.B．。
