2、est and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesnt require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.Backcountry CampingWhy limit your
3、self to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend (or longer) adventure? Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear, food, and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If youre an experienced hiker and camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival sk
4、ills and explore the wilderness.Mountain and Road BikingUnlike long hikes through the woods, biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees, and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tire
5、s arent suited for rugged terrain, consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country roads.GardeningContrary to popular belief, you dont have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous o
6、r your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers.

8、ake you to travel farthest?A.HikingB.Backcountry CampingC.Gardening.D.Mountain and Road BikingB I once heard this tale in India, where it is told as if truethough any naturalist would know it couldnt be. The country is India. A colonial official and his wife are giving a large dinner party. They inv
9、ite army officers and their wives, and a visiting American naturalist.A spirited discussion springs up between a young girl who says women are no longer the jumping on a chair at the sight of a mouse and an army officer who disagrees and says, “A womans reaction in any crisis is to scream. And a man
10、 has more control than a woman.”The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of the other guests. As he stares, he sees a slight strange expression come over the face of the hostess. She gestures to the servant standing behind her chair and whispers to him. The
11、 servants eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. Of the guests, none except the American notices this or sees the servant place a bowl of milk on the balcony just outside the open glass doors.In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing: bait (诱饵) for a snake. The American understands th
12、ere must be a snake in the room. His eyes move across the room but see nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place under the table.His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movement will frighten the animal into striking. He speaks quickly, the tone
13、of his voice so arresting that it quietens everyone. “I want to know what control everyone here has. I will count three hundredthats five minutes and not one of you is to move a muscle. Ready!”The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying, “two hundred and eighty” When out of the
14、 corner of his eyes, he sees the snake make for the bowl of milk. Four or five screams ring out as he jumps to close the balcony doors.“There is your proof!” the host shouts. “A man has just shown us perfect self-control.”“Just a minute,” the American says, turning to his hostess, “How did you know
15、that snake was in the room?” With a faint smile coming across her face she replies: “Because it was lying across my foot.”24.What can we conclude from the passage?A.Women are afraid of mice.B.The army officers opinion is wrong.C.The American suggests playing a game for entertainment.D.The hostess ha
16、s had previous experience catching snakes.25.Choose the right order of the events given in the passage.a. The Americans eyes sweep the room but he sees nothing.b.

18、icer.C.The girl.D.The hostess.27.What may be the best title for the passage?A.A Heated ArgumentB.A Striking Dinner PartyC.An Unbelievable StoryD.A Smart HostessC Who cares if people think wrongly that the Internet has had more important influences than the washing machine? Why does it matter that pe
19、ople are more impressed by the most recent changes?It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of peoples opinions. However, they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.The fascination with the ICT(Information and Communication Technology) revolution,
20、 represented by the Internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so yesterday that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in post-industrial society has led those countries to neglect their manufacturing sector(制造业) with negative consequences for their economi
21、es.Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the digital divide between the rich countries and the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy comp
22、uter equipment and Internet facilities. The question, however, is whether this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more affordable washing machines would have improved
23、peoples lives more than giving every child a laptop computer or setting up Internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits o
24、f alternative uses of their money.In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we live in a borderless world. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, ma
25、ny people have come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border
26、flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the individual level. However, our fascination with the
27、latest, and our under valuation of what has already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.28.Misjudgments on the influences of new technology can lead to _.A. a lack of confidence in technologyB. a slow progress in technologyC. a conflict of public opinionsD. a waste o
28、f limited resources29.The example in Paragraph 4 suggests that donators should _.A. take peoples essential needs into accountB. make their programmes attractive to peopleC. ensure that each child gets financial supportD. provide more affordable internet facilities30.What has led many governments to
29、remove necessary regulations?A. Neglecting the impacts of technological advances.B. Believing that the world has become borderless.C. Ignoring the power of economic development.D. Over-emphasizing the role of international communication.31.What can we learn from the passage?A. People should be encou
30、raged to make more donations.B. Traditional technology still has a place nowadays.C. Making right career choices is crucial to personal success.D. Economic policies should follow technological trends.DIt is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United St
31、ates or the Amazon rainforest. Without it we would not have grown into primates (灵长类动物) . Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat. Without competition, Columbus wouldnt have discovered America and Edison would never have
32、invented the light bulb.Friendship, like all relationships between two people, involves competition. It isnt competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecological definition - the simultaneous (同时) demand by two or more organisms for limited
33、environmental resources, such as nutrinents, living space, or light - better explains it.As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwins theory of evolution, overpopulation, and competition. There is an abundance of high school students and to d
34、istinguish them, ranking and categorizing (分类) take place. In high school, friendships learn to coexist with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstance, competition is too much of a burden for a friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admi
35、ssion is the final high school objective. Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a students fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve a similar recognition.Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between stud
36、ents exists in all aspects of high school life. It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to schoolwork. A healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy (妒忌) can tear friendships apart. Yet, despite all this, without competition, we
37、 would be lost.32.What does the ecological definition mainly explain?A. How to win the competition. B. What competition exactly is.C. What the result of competition is. D. How friends compete with each other.33.According to the writer, what causes the high school students to compete?A. They know the
38、 laws of nature well. B. Friendship is a burden for them.C. The number of them is too large. D. They are divided into different groups.34.Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition?A. Friendship is always based on competition.B. Competition is a result of lost friendship.C.
39、Competition is terribly harmful to friendships.D. The degree of competition is vital to friendship.35.What does the author think of “competition”?A. Competition is certain to happen at school.B. The result of competition are out of control.C. Competition becomes fierce in high school.D. Friendship i
