The parks have some of the best scenery of all the national parks.Black Canyon (峡谷) of Gunnison National ParkThis park offers the most breathtaking views from up in the mountains into the canyons below. While exploring the canyons, you will find that the walls drop nearly straight down into the narrow valleys of the snake-like rivers below. Visitors are offered more than 100 camping sites, and a lot of bird species and many animals are native to the area.Rocky Mountain National ParkIt is the only national park in the north central region in the state of Colorado. Elevations in this park are anywhere from 8,000 feet to 14,259 feet at the top of Longs Peak. While traveling throughout this park you will notice two very different climates because of the difference the upper peaks of the Rocky Mountains make. You can enjoy 359 miles of hiking trails, a lot of places for camping, horse-back riding and beautiful scenery. Mesa Verde National Park This is probably the most interesting national park, offering a fascinating trip back in time to 600 AD up to 1300 AD．This park was declared a protected national park in 1906 because of the cliff dwellings(住所) that were found throughout the area, which were once home to American Indians. Many of these dwellings can be walked through, while you imagine what each room may have been used for so many years ago.Great Sand Dunes (沙丘) National ParkThe Great Sand Dunes National Park lies in south central Colorado, about 127 miles from Pueblo. This park has the tallest sand dunes in all of North America and has trails for hiking. The natural sandy beaches around the small rivers and lakes are good for swimmers.21．What’s the most breathtaking thing in the Black Canyon of Gunnison National Park?A．The animals. B．The walls.C．The hiking trails. D．The camping sites.22．If you are interested in history, you are advised to visit________.A．the Mesa Verde National ParkB．the Rocky Mountain National ParkC．the Great Sand Dunes National ParkD．the Black Canyon of Gunnison National Park23．What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A．Telling people some traveling information in Colorado.B．Persuading people to visit Colorado when in America.C．Introducing the best four parks in Colorado to people.D．Showing people which park is the best of the four in Colorado.                                       B    After a terrible electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a plough and a wall. When Mrs. Edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years. The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock. 24. The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that _________.A. he had to live in a dark and silent world   B. a terrible traffic accident happened to himC. he was struck by the lightning once more D. nobody in the world cared about him25. What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?A. Sheltering from the rain under a tree.     B. Driving a car. C. Taking a walk with a stick.    D. Lying on the ground.26. We can infer from the text that ________.A. Robert’s wife sent for doctors immediately after the shockB. many doctors came because Robert was badly injuredC. there was no accurate explanation for Robert’s recoveryD. a sudden injury in the head led to Robert’s recoveryWhich of the following statements is NOT true?Robert had been deaf and blind for nearly ten years.Robert hid himself under the tree for 20 minutes.C. Robert could hear his wife's shouting for help when he woke up.D. The family's love helped Robert regain confidence to live. CRead a lot, I mean a lot! You have to increase your ability for reading. Many students are in the habit of reading only when their exams are approaching while some others read only what they are taught or things that must be read because it is in their curriculum (课程). But listen to me now, I am telling you from my own experience that it is a very bad habit and it is not enough to improve your intelligence.You have to learn and get ready to become versatile in your reading. The fact that you are studying medicine in school does not mean that you should not know one or two things on politics. Many people have complained to me that they find it hard to read stuffs like novels but I just shake my head in pity for them because it is obvious they have failed to realize the truth in that wise saying by Margaret Fuller that “today a READER, tomorrow a LEADER!” When you read, you get to “see” so many places and it will be as if you have visited those places in real life. This is because reading will improve your imagination and creativity and understanding. You also get experience from learning about how people dealt with their various problems therefore saving you from going through the pains and difficulties they must have gone through!Reading will also help you in improving your vocabulary because you will certainly start coming across so many new words which you will try as much as possible to get accustomed to with the help of the dictionary! The good thing about increasing your vocabulary is that it will also improve your thinking ability. After all, we think in words and the more words you know, the easier it will become for you to express yourself or your thoughts.And when you read, make sure you read so wide because the more you read the more you know and the more you know the more intelligent you can become.28. According to the author, what should students do in terms of reading?A. They needn’t read unless the exams come.B. They should read books about intelligence.C. They must read about politics when their major is medicine.D. They should read as wide as possible.29. The underlined word “versatile” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____.A. interested  B. many-sided  C. content D. confident30. What is the best title for the passage?  A. Increase your ability for reading   B. Read wide and improve your vocabulary  C. Reading improves your intelligence D. Reading makes you a leader tomorrow31. What is the benefit of knowing more words?  A. You will get used to referring to the dictionary when meeting with new words.  B. You will have less difficulty expressing your opinions.  C. Vocabulary will improve your creativity.  D. You can pass your exams with ease.  DMy passage into eighties a few weeks ago gave me a moment’s reflection and the thought that I should watch how others in this situation have been affected. After a while it seemed to me that the first 80 years are the hardest.     Once you reach 80, everyone wants to carry your baggage and help you up steps. If you forget your name or anybody else’s name, or an appointment or your own telephone number, or promise to be three places at the same time, or you can’t remember how many grandchildren you have, you need only explain that you are 80.     Being 80 is a lot better than being 70. At 70 people are mad at you for everything. At 80, you have a perfect excuse no matter what you do. If you act foolishly, it’s your second childhood. Everybody is looking for symptoms of your failures of the brain.     Being 70 is not fun at all. At that age they expect you to retire to a house in Florida and complain about your arthritis( 关节炎) and you ask everybody to stop mumbling (咕哝) because you can’t understand them. (Actually your hearing is about 50% gone.)     If you survive until you are 80, everybody is surprised that you are still alive. They treat you with respect just for having lived so long. Actually they seem surprised that you can walk and talk sensibly.     So please, folks, try to make it to 80. It’s the best time of life. People forgive you for anything. In response to the question of what years were the most difficult, an 80-year-old responded “those between 10 and 70.”     Life begins at 80.32. According to the passage, how old is the writer now?    A.  Eighty.         B. Seventy.        C. Sixty.            D. not known.33. What does the writer say people do to an eighty-year-old man?    A. They are often mad at him.                    B. They make fun of him.    C. They talk loudly to him.                         D. They offer help to him.34. What problems do the 80-year-olds often have?   A. They are not respected by other people.     B. They are often forgetful.   C. They can’t understand other people.          D. They are afraid of death.35. The writer wrote this passage in a _______ way.    A. negative           B. serious             C. humorous              D. passive 第二节：（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Learning a new language is a long, difficult process.
