(山东北镇中学高一上阶段性检测)The State of Colorado has four of the best parks out of the 58 national parks in the United States.The parks have some of the best scenery of all the national parks.

Black Canyon(峡谷)of the Gunnison National Park

This 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 Park

It 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 there are 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()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 Park

(江苏南通海门中学高一月考)

 With summer drawing to a close,parents are helpless.

Camp's over.The kids'friends have left for warmer places.A trip to the pool doesn't bring the same excitement as it did in June.And so many families have no choice but to go for a trip to the amusement park.

Whether you're thinking of Six Flags,Sesame Place,Hersheypark or Dutch Wonderland,don't do it-you'll be sorry.Amusement parks-especially water parks-have never been more popular.More than 26 million people went to Six Flags last year. These parks bring out the worst in kids and parents alike.What starts out as a special treat ends up in disappointment and tears.

As soon as you get to the park,you pay a couple of hundred dollars for a family of four.Already, expectations are unrealistic as parents start to do the math.How many rides will I get for the money?The answer-at least in August-is four.

That's because of the lines.Time stops as you stand in line leading to even the least exciting ride. Over and over we count the number of people in front of us,wondering how many more rounds there'll be before our turn.Then there are the other parents-some of whom seem to think the lines are part of the game.

At Dutch Wonderland last weekend,one father walked up to my kids and asked if they were in line. For five minutes,he had his daughter stand behind them.When I turned my head,he had her stand ahead of them.Then he did it to the kids next in line,too.

By the end of the day,you see mothers and fathers buy their kids ice cream again and again to ease the influences of the heat,disappointment and anger.

It's like they've forgotten-it was all the kids' idea in the first place.

4.Why are parents helpless?

A.Their kids are having little fun.               B.They are not good at planning trips.

C.Their kids depend on them too much.          D.They are too busy to play with their kids.

5.What does the author think of the money spent by parents?

A.It is not worth it.                    B.It is good for the family

C.It wouldn't be so much in August.       D.It is a waste for those poor at math.

6.Why did the father ask the author's kids whether they were in line？

A.He was a polite person.                     B.He couldn't find the line.

C.He wanted his kid to cut in line.              D.He wanted to teach them a lesson.

7.What would be the best title for the text?

A.Behave well,little kids!                    B.Mind your manners,parents!

C.Make your choices carefully                D.Keep away from amusement parks

(浙江桐乡高级中学高一下月考)Millions of people pass through the gates of the Disney parks in California,Florida and Tokyo,Japan each year.What makes these places almost universal attractions?What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks?Well,one reason is the way Disney serves their“guests”.

All new employees,from vice-presidents to part- time workers,begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking "Traditions".Here, they learn about the company's history,how it is managed and why it is successful.They are shown how each department relates to the whole.All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success.

After passing"Traditions",the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific jobs.No detail is missed.A simple job like taking tickets requires eight-hour days of training.When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple,ordinary job,he replied,"What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or which bus to take back to the campgrounds?We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly.Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy themselves."

Even Disney's managers get involved in the daily management of the park.Every year,the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes.For a full week,the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream,take tickets or drive the monorail, and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the park come alive.The managers agree that this week helps them to see the company's goals more clearly.

All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney famous.Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in America or the world.

Welcome to MACHU PICCHU!

Often considered as "The Lost City of the Incas",Machu Picchu is probably the most familiar symbol of the Inca Empire(印加帝国).It was built around the year 1450,but abandoned a hundred years later,at the time of the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire.Forgotten for centuries,the site was brought to worldwide attention in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, an American historian.Since then,Machu Picchu has become an important tourist attraction.It was announced a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983.It is also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. But it has recently come to light that the site may have been discovered and robbed secretly as early as in 1867 by a German businessman,Augusto Berns.

About 7,000 feet above sea level and located on a small hilltop between the Andean mountain range, the majestic city rises above the Urabamba Valley below.Separated into three areas-farming areas, urban areas,and religious areas-the structures are arranged so that the function of the buildings matches the forms of their surroundings.The agricultural terracing and ditches(梯田和沟渠)take advantage of the natural slopes;the lower areas contain buildings occupied by farmers and teachers,and the most important religious areas are located at the crest of the hill,overlooking the fresh green Urabamba Valley thousands of feet below.

Hikers,tourists,and the early explorers describe similar emotions as they climb their way through the Inca Trail.Many call the experience magical and say the area creates a wonderful green paradise,making it a must for anyone who travels to Peru.

1.What can we learn about Augusto Berns from the passage?

A.He reported his finding to the government in time.

B.He was the first one who discovered the ruins of Machu Picchu.

C.He helped make Machu Picchu a UNESCO World Heritage site.

D.He worked together with Bingham on the research into Machu Picchu.

2.When did Machu Picchu become an important tourist attraction?

A.After Hiram Bingham found the ruins.          

B.After Spanish conquered the Inca Empire.

C.After it was named a UNESCO World Heritage site.

D.After Augusto Berns'work became known to the public.

3.Which word can replace the underlined word "crest" in the second paragraph?

A.Bottom.             B.Centre.               C.Valley.               D.Top.

    Alan and the other campers sat around the fire, talking and laughing.It would be Alan's first night in a tent,and he was excited,if a little nervous.

Then,the conservation area officer spoke, "Much of the wildlife in this region comes out only at night.So after supper,let's start a night watch Volunteers will take turns to stay down here by the fire,away from the tents.Those who take part will get a chance to see a different world."

“Isn't it dangerous?”someone asked.

“No,it's quite safe,”the officer said.“There are no dangerous animals.Any volunteers?"

The kid who'd sat next to Alan on the bus volunteered.

Alan sat still.

Then one of the girls raised her hand.

“If a girl could do it,.I could,too,”Alan thought.He volunteered.A few more kids raised their hands.Then the officer explained,"This is how it works.When the rest of you go to bed,the first watcher takes his or her place by the fire.The duty of the watcher is to keep the fire going.After thirty minutes,he or she wakes up the next person.Do you still want to volunteer?"

Alan nodded but felt a little nervous.Sleeping in a tent with other campers sounded OK,but the idea of being alone in the dark made him afraid.

The officer showed the order of the watch.

At ten past two in the evening,Alan found himself sitting by the fire,in a great world of darkness.He had never been so afraid.Alan had to turn off his flashlight(手电筒)because he had used it too often.He looked at the stars and the rising moon. It wasn't as dark as he'd thought it would be.He took comfort in that and tried to relax a little.

Looking around,Alan thought he saw a large bird flying down through the air and wondered if it was an owl(猫头鹰).He had seen small paw prints in the sand by the river.

Paragraph 1:

Then there was a noise.
