A
It seems that we just can’t get enugh f rller casters. Tday we lk at sme tp amusement parks and the rller casters which have helped make them famus.
Hliday Wrld
It is a family park that resists the exciting atmsphere f its cmpetitrs and instead ffers a mre relaxing and friendly experience. Rare in that it is privately wned and it has many features ther parks can’t match. There is lts f entertainment fr yungsters, and the park’s family- friendly plicy ffers free entry t the water park, reasnable fd prices and unlimited sft drinks free f charge.
Lake Cmpunce
Lake Cmpunce, ne f America’s mre traditinal parks, is a rare find indeed. As the ldest cntinuusly perating amusement park in the US, it has been a ppular family spt since 1846．Like many ld- time parks, it witnessed the danger f being clsed. Luckily, in 1977, a well- knwn cmpany gave its revival with new rides appealing t many new fans.
Kntt’s Berry Farm
As ne f America’s favurite theme parks, Kntt’s has smething fr everyne. Fr thse seeking a breathtaking rush, try the rller caster, GhstRider r the Xceleratr. GhstRider is the single largest attractin in amusement park histry and ne f the lngest and tallest wden rller casters in the wrld. If yu are after smething less exciting, g visit the heart f Kntt’s, Ghst Twn, fr a glance （一瞥） f life in the Wild West f the1880s. With its cwbys, steam trains and histric buildings- many transprted frm mining twns- Ghst Twn will let yu relive a piece f the past.
Islands f Adventure
In the style f Walt Disney Wrld, Islands f Adventure is divided int themed “lands”. Unlike the sugar- cated Magic Kingdm, hwever, IOA features attractins prmising t set the heart racing. While the Spiderman is fantastic, yu haven’t truly lived until yu’ve experienced The Incredible Hulk’s wild and unique uphill launch. The effect is like being trapped inside an airplane that’s flying ut f cntrl.
21．What is special abut Hliday Wrld?
A．It prvides free fd.B．It belngs t an individual.
C．It wns the latest ride technlgy.D．It creates the exciting atmsphere.
22．Which park takes visitrs back t earlier times?
A．Hliday Wrld.B．Lake Cmpunce.
C．Kntt’s Berry Farm.D．Islands f Adventure.
23．Why des Islands f Adventure differ frm Magic Kingdm?
A．It plays many famus mvies.B．It is divided int different lands.

Anne f Green Gables is ideally meant fr children — ne might think s when seeing the cver r reading thrugh the back page f the masterpiece. It was first published in the year 1904, authred by Lucy Maud Mntgmery, but it still cnnects t tday’s wrld where we frget t live in the present.
It tells f the adventures f Anne Shirley, an 11- year- ld rphan（孤儿） girl wh is mistakenly sent t Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, a middle- aged brther and sister wh had intended t adpt a by t help them n their farm in the fictinal（虚构的） twn f Avnlea. The nvel describes hw Anne makes her way with the Cuthberts, in schl, and within the twn.
The bk teaches me a lt f things, the mst imprtant being — t be wh yu are. Why d we need t pretend t be smebdy else and present a false image f urselves t lk better? We need t realize that we are all different in ur wn way and accept urselves first. As is described in the bk, Anne is a clrful and ever- grwing character. She “has as many shades as a rainbw and every shade is the prettiest while it lasts.” Each aspect f her persnality is beautiful, which makes her unique and interesting.
Anther imprtant cncept that is illustrated remarkably well is the imprtance f taking jy in the wrld arund us. Anne’s bvius wnder- struck appreciatin f life made me truly appreciate the small things. Here is my favurite qute（引言） frm Chapter19:
I believe the nicest and sweetest days are nt thse n which anything very splendid r wnderful r exciting happens but just thse that bring simple little pleasures, fllwing ne anther sftly, like pearls（珍珠） slipping ff a string.
Anne’s influence has deeply shaped wh I am tday. This classic nvel truly highlights the imprtance f self- lve and gratitude. With its uplifting and refreshing stry, it is a wnderful read fr peple f all ages seeking a jyful and enriching literary jurney.
24．What d we knw abut Anne f Green Gables?
A．It is a recent release.B．It cvers real events.
C．It is a timeless classic.D．It features wrld histry.
25．What can we learn abut Anne frm paragraph 3?
A．She is true t herself.B．She achieves her gal.
C．She is talented in drawing.D．She cares abut thers.
26．Which f the fllwing best matches the qute frm Chapter 19?
A．Time waits fr n man.B．Stp and smell the rses.
C．Frtune favurs the brave.D．D ne thing at a time.
27．What is the authr’s purpse in writing the text?
A．T tell a stryB．T recmmend a bk.
C．T teach a lessn.D．T remember a writer.

It’s held by yu, but put in yur pcket, and yu state yur intentins fr the week, whether that’s checking yur scial media nce r twice a day r a ttal blackut.”
Tur- gers als get a “dumbphne” withut Internet access that’s laded with numbers fr grup leaders and ther participants, bth fr emergencies and t prmte scializing. Participants may bring regular cameras, but Beattie is hiring a phtgrapher fr each tur s there will be plenty f phts t remember the trip.

Curage is a huge theme in my life, a quality I cnstantly seek, appreciate, and analyze. The rt f “curage” is “cr,” the Latin wrd fr heart. Originally, curage meant “t speak ne’s mind by telling all ne’s heart”. While curage is ften assciated with herism nwadays, I believe true curage lies in being pen and hnest abut wh we are and hw we feel.
I recently witnessed an example f true curage. During a muntain- climbing trip with my 15- year- ld daughter and sme cllege students, I nticed her struggling t keep up with the grup. Despite my suggestins t rest, she cntinued until she culdn’t breathe prperly.
Panicked, I called ut t the frnt fr help, but there was n respnse, and we had n cellphne signal. Frtunately, tw students just came back t check ut n us. They ffered assistance and calmed us dwn. As we cntinued at a slwer pace, they shared their wn experiences, frm starting ut as beginners like my daughter t becming cnsistently amng the first t reach the peak.
“Yu knw,” ne f them said, lking at my daughter, “I was just like yu when I started. But with practice and prper pace, yu’ll get there t.”
“Yeah, dn’t let yur lack f experience stp yu,” the ther added. “It’s kay t admit when yu’re struggling r nt feeling alright. In fact, it’s imprtant t speak up and ask fr help when yu need it. That’s hw we imprve and grw.”
Reaching the muntain tp was a huge relief fr bth my daughter and me. Hwever, the tw students addressed the celebrating grup directly, emphasizing the imprtance f staying tgether in tugh envirnments. Their wrds led the grup t aplgize t us fr verlking ur struggle.
I was ttally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it’s kay t be the least experienced in a grup. Curage, I’ve cme t realize, has a ripple effect（涟漪效应）. Each time we chse curage, we inspire thse arund us t be a little braver and make the wrld a little better.
32．Why des the authr mentin the riginal meaning f curage?
A．T argue fr the true essence f curage.B．T questin the cmmn belief f curage.
C．T shw the changing meaning f curage.D．T cmpare different interpretatins f curage.
33．What did the tw students suggest the daughter d?
A．Keep t a suitable pace.B．Offer help whenever pssible.
C．Challenge her wn limits.D．Stick with experienced climbers.
34．Which actin in the muntain- climbing stry is an example f true curage?
A．The mther asked the girl t rest.B．The girl tried hard nt t fall behind.
C．The grup celebrated the reach f the tp.D．The tw students pinted ut the grup’s fault.
35．What des the authr intend t tell us?
A．Kindness cnnects us all.B．Being a beginner takes curage.
C．With curage, everyne can be perfect.D．We dn’t have t be a her t be brave.

Frtunately, yu can regain sme cntrl ver cmmunicatin by wrking with what yu have left — the eyes.

D．Scial distance desn’t have t mean scially distant.
E．Raising yur vice can alter the message yu are trying t send.
F．But when part f the face is masked, it becmes tugher t recgnize them.
