The Best National Parks to Visit in Winter

While most parks tend to draw families in the summer and fall, there are also ideal spots for adventurous winter trips.

Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

The country's oldest and best-known national park takes on an almost otherworldly atmosphere in winter: the air filled with rolling steam, the strong colors of hot springs, the surrounding white landscapes, let alone the impressive wildlife during this time, like bison, wolves, and playful red foxes.Just book a guided hiking tour to get a ranger's perspective of the park and local people.

Joshua Tree National Park, California

With its giant red rocks and unique trees, you'll feel like stepping onto a foreign planet as you spend hours hiking the Panorama Loop or Maze Loop.The park is recognized as an International Dark Sky Park, featuring virtually zero light pollution and the country's best views of a starry sky.

Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona

A significantly lower number of visitors in winter means you can take in unblocked views of the South Rim, and get to see the rare beauty of the Grand Canyon dusted with snow.For those adventurous and daring people, they can hike the Bright Angel Trail and take the chance to see the canyon's wintertime wildlife, including mule deer, elk, and bald eagles.

Virgin Islands National Park, St. John

Surprise！Not all wintertime national park trips need to involve snow.Virgin Islands National Park is most famous for its white-sand beaches.You can also hike inland to visit old sugar plantations, or venture out to the water to swim along with sea turtles and manta rays.You will definitely enjoy a different winter here.

语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四个适合在冬日参观游玩的最佳国家公园。

1．Which park will one choose if he/she is interested in stars？_B__

A．Yellowstone National Park.

B．Joshua Tree National Park.

C．Grand Canyon National Park.

D．Virgin Islands National Park.

解析：细节理解题。根据Joshua Tree National Park, California部分中的“The park is recognized as an International Dark Sky Park, featuring virtually zero light pollution and the country's best views of a starry sky.”可知，该国家公园几乎没有光污染，是观看星空的最佳地点，由此可推断该公园适合对星星感兴趣的人。故选B。

2．What do we know about the Grand Canyon National Park？_D__

A．We can have a poor view of the South Rim there.

B．It lies in an area with rolling steam and hot springs.

C．There is a slight decline in visitor numbers in winter.

D．The Bright Angel Trail is challenging in cold weather.

解析：推理判断题。根据Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona部分中的“For those adventurous and daring people, they can hike the Bright Angel Trail...”可知，热爱冒险且勇敢的人可以在the Bright Angel Trail这条路线上远足，由此可推断这条线路在冬天具有挑战性。故选D。

3．Which activity is mentioned in all of the parks？_A__

A．Hiking.  B．Skiing.

C．Swimming.  D．Hunting.

解析：细节理解题。根据Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming部分中的“Just book a guided hiking tour”；Joshua Tree National Park, California部分中的“as you spend hours hiking the Panorama Loop or Maze Loop”；Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona部分中的“they can hike the Bright Angel Trail”和Virgin Islands National Park, St.John部分中的“You can also hike inland”可知，四个国家公园都提到了远足这项活动。故选A。

B

(2023·八省八校联考)

In gardens across Britain the grass has stopped growing, which is not drought-stricken.In fact, it is greener and cleaner than ever before.That is because the lawns(草坪) are actually artificial substitutes.

Britons are fascinated by lawns.Country estates(庄园) have long competed to have the most perfectly cut and polished grassland.“What you're saying in big loud capital letters, is‘I'm so terribly wealthy’”says Fiona Davison of Royal Horticultural Society(RHS，英国皇家园艺协会)．With the coming of grass-cutting machines in 1830, the middle classes joined the fun.

But now Britons have fallen in love with artificial grass.Evergreens UK, which sells the stuff, says it has seen a 120%rise in sales since 2015.Artificial grass is popular with families who have children or dogs and don't want mud dragged through their houses.It has another charm, too—people now see gardens as“outside rooms”—pairing carpets of artificial grass with delicately decorated seating and hot containers.

Not everyone is a fan.Artificial grass contains microplastics that ruin soil and risk flooding.A study finds earthworms gain 14%less body weight when operating under rubber，a form of artificial grass.This phenomenon might not be a problem for fans of artificial grass, as wormholes are regular disgusting things for them, but it disappoints green types.Ms Davison says a group of wildlife-loving gardeners is blooming, many having caught the bug during COVID-19 lockdowns.For example，a landscape designer says they like things less neat and try“to capture that wild element”．These eco-gardeners are influenced by rewilding projects and are more likely to be environmentalists.

Although three written documents signed by many people have tried to stop artificial grass spreading, the government says regulating what people do in their backyards is wrong.The RHS is concerned about artificial grass, but prefers persuasion to laws.“We say ‘Let a hundred flowers bloom’，”says Ms Davison.

语篇导读：本文主要介绍的是在英国，人造草坪正受到人们欢迎，但不同群体对人造草坪有不同的看法。

4．What can be inferred from Davison's remark in Paragraph 2？_D__

A．She is very rich.

B．The gardening competition is fierce.

C．Operating a cutting machine is fun.

D．High-quality grassland is greatly valued.

解析：推理判断题。分析第二段内容可知，长久以来，乡村各庄园一直在就谁拥有打理得最好的花园相互竞争，且如果你拥有打理得最好的草坪，你就能大声地说出：“我真是太富有了！”由此可推知，高质量的草坪是非常受重视的。故选D。

5．What possibly contributes to the popularity of artificial grass？_B__

A．Advertising campaigns.

B．Gardens' new function.

C．Messy grasslands.

D．Ill-mannered children and dogs.

解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中“It has another charm, too—people now see gardens as ‘outside rooms’”可知， 人造草坪受欢迎的原因是人们现在将花园视作“室外的房间”，本句中的charm表明花园的这种新功能是非常受欢迎的。故选B。

6．What does the underlined word“bug”mean in the fourth paragraph？_A__

A．Interest.  B．Earthworm.

C．Flower.  D．Virus.

解析：词义猜测题。画线词后文中的“For example，a landscape designer says they like things less neat and try ‘to capture that wild element’．”是对本句所说现象的解释，该句表明许多人在疫情期间开始喜欢不那么整洁的东西(指非人造草坪)，以“捕捉那种自然生长的元素”。由此可推知，疫情隔离期间，部分人对非人造草坪产生了兴趣。interest意为“兴趣”，符合语境。故选A。

7．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？_C__

A．The Barrier of British Grassland

B．The Appeal of Grassland for Britons

C．The Fight to Define the Great British Garden

D．The Competition to Become the Best Grassland

解析：标题归纳题。综观全文可知，部分人支持人造草坪，部分人不支持，且根据最后一段可知，人们就是否应限制使用人造草坪仍然没有下定论。C项(英国花园之战——为好的花园下定义)最适合作为本文标题。故选C。

Ⅱ.七选五

语篇导读：这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了5G移动通信技术加速了全球范围内的互联互通，为旅游业带来变革，而旅游公司正在改变运营方式，不断增强旅游者的旅游体验。

解析：

1．考查语境推断。根据上文“It promotes operational cooperation tourism which we haven't experienced before.”可知，5G移动通信技术给旅游业带来了前所未有的变革；设空处下文则提到，可以从行业运作方式和旅游者的体验两方面看到此种变革。A项(它也改变了旅游体验。)承上启下，符合语境。故选A。

2．考查语境推断。设空处位于段首，应是本段的主题句。根据本段中的“offer organizations a wireless network that transforms the way people and machines use data”和“offer real-time business insights and automated responses”以及“integrate the billions of Internet of things(物联网) devices and data”可知，本段主要介绍5G在转变数据处理方式以及提供商业价值方面的影响。F项(5G开辟了存取信息和传递商业价值的新途径。)能概括本段内容，符合语境。故选F。

3．考查语境推断。根据上文“As travel companies have transformed their operations with new digital systems...experiences driven by the technology.”可知，随着旅游公司用新的数字系统改变他们的运营方式，他们的重点已经从技术本身转移到改善业务成果和提高由技术驱动的顾客和旅客的体验。B项(5G的能力可以支持这一改变。)承接上文，符合语境，且B项中的change与上文中的transformed和moved相呼应。故选B。

4．考查逻辑推断。根据下文“For example, guests can involve themselves in viewing rooms and hotel facilities, or preview local attractions as they plan their trips.”可知，该句对设空处内容进行举例，具体说明旅客可以利用5G技术身临其境地体验旅行时的住处或提前看到当地的景点。E项(虚拟体验可以让客人提前感受目的地。)符合语境。故选E。

Ⅲ.语法填空

(2023·广东省深圳市一调)

A new group of free employees have been added to a French workforce.So far，a theme park in western France  1.has employed　(employ) six birds, more exactly six crows, to collect and deal with garbage—mainly cigarette ends and other small pieces.The birds take the  2.collected　(collect)trash to special bins where they can receive bird food in exchange  3.for　 putting away the litter.

Park president Nicolas said，“The purpose of employing the crows is to educate people to take on their social  4.responsibilities/responsibility　(responsible)．Since the birds are able to do  5.what　 we are much more able to do than them, we should do this by ourselves.”

Crows have long been observed for their various amazing  6.displays　(display) of intelligence.They are one of the  7.smartest　(smart) groups of animals on earth, with remarkable problem-solving, tool-making, and deductive reasoning(推理) skills.

In addition to inspiring humans to pick up trash, the clever crows currently  8.working　(work) at the park are pretty excited to put their intelligence to work.

“ It has become  9.an　 exciting game for them，”Nicolas says.“They pick up the trash on the ground, and every day they  10.are rewarded　(reward) for what they have done.”

语篇导读：文章主要介绍了法国西部的一个主题公园“雇用”了六只乌鸦来收集和处理垃圾，目的是教育人们承担社会责任。

解析：

1．考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：到目前为止，法国西部的一个主题公园已经“雇用”了六只鸟，更准确地说是六只乌鸦，来收集和处理垃圾——主要是烟蒂和其他小碎片。分析句子成分可知，设空处在句中作谓语，根据时间状语So far可知，应用现在完成时，且句子主语a theme park为单数概念，谓语应用单数形式。故填has employed。

2．考查非谓语动词。句意：这些鸟把收集到的垃圾送到专门的垃圾箱里，在那里它们可以扔掉垃圾以换取鸟食。根据句意可知，设空处应用非谓语形式作定语，修饰名词trash；collect与trash之间是逻辑上的被动关系，应用过去分词collected，表示“收集到的”。故填collected。

3．考查介词。句意见上一题解析。in exchange for为固定搭配，意为“作为对……的交换”。故填for。

4．考查名词。句意：“雇用”乌鸦的目的是教育人们承担社会责任。设空处前有形容词性物主代词their及形容词social修饰，应填名词。responsible的名词形式responsibility，意为“责任”时，可作可数名词，也可作不可数名词。故填responsibilities/responsibility。

5．考查名词性从句。句意：既然鸟类能做我们比它们更有能力做的事，我们就应该自己做这件事。分析句子成分可知，设空处引导宾语从句，作do的宾语，表示“……的事情”。故填what。

6．考查名词复数。句意：人们长期以来一直观察到乌鸦表现出各种各样令人惊叹的智慧。display作名词，意为“展示，显露”时为可数名词，根据their various可知，应用其复数形式。故填displays。

7．考查形容词最高级。句意：它们是地球上最聪明的动物群体之一……。“one of＋the＋形容词最高级＋可数名词复数”为固定结构，意为“最……的 之一”，此处应用smart的最高级形式。故填smartest。

8．考查非谓语动词。句意：除了激励人类去捡垃圾外，目前在公园工作的聪明的乌鸦也非常兴奋地将它们的智慧用于工作。分析句子成分可知，此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语， work与其所修饰词crows之间为逻辑上的主动关系，所以应用现在分词。故填working。

9．考查冠词。句意：“对它们来说，这已经成为一项令人兴奋的游戏。”尼古拉斯说。分析句子成分可知，设空处应填冠词。game为可数名词，此处表示泛指，且exciting的发音以元音音素开头，应用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。

10．考查动词的时态和语态及主谓一致。句意：它们捡起地上的垃圾，并且每天都因它们所做的事而得到奖励。分析句子成分可知，设空处在分句中作谓语，根据时间状语every day可知，应用一般现在时；又因reward和they之间为被动关系，应用被动语态，且主语是they，谓语应用复数形式。故填are rewarded。
