21、Whether you’ re a fearless adventurer seeking a scenic climb or a beginner outdoorsman eager to be close to nature, these four camping destinations will change your life.
Laugavegur, Iceland
Before snow falls upon the changeable rhyolite (流纹岩) mountains, book a cottage or a tent in the camp city as wild camping is not permitted here. Professionals advise hiking from north to south, which takes you across lava fields, wildflower-spotted grasslands, and to the twin glaciers (冰川) Eyjafjallaj kull and Mydralsj kull. Along the way, the mountains covered with various colors will appeal to you.
High Atlas Mountains, Morocco
Morocco’s most typical range is a bucket-list camping destination for daring travelers. Pass through remote Berber villages and walk a long way from hot desert to snow-capped peaks. You can follow ancient animal paths, though guides in this area are highly suggested. Many will employ the use of a camel to help with the load.
Tierra del Fuego, Chile
Tierra del Fuego is an explorer’s dream. Take a cross-border journey from Argentina to Chile through Radman and set up camp along one of the glacial lakes Blanco or Ofhidro. Animals like beavers are common in this area, and so are condors (秃鹰). Bed down in the grasslands beneath Jebel M’ goun, an extremely quiet peak.
Main Range, Kosciuszko National Park, Australia
Whether you fill your days with passing over the country’ s highest mountains, watching snowfalls or fishing in the glacial lakes, make sure to spend an evening appreciating the starry sky, which is certain to inspire awe (敬畏) in anyone witnessing this sight.
【1】What is necessary to camp in Laugavegur according to the text?
A．Protection for grasslands.
B．Permission for campsites.

22、Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
You return from work on a muggy August evening. Your unwashed teenage son is on the sofa playing Fortnite, as he has been doing for the past eight hours. Your daughter, scrolling through(滚动浏览)Instagram, acknowledges your presence with a rude grunt (咕哝). Not for the first time, you ask yourself: why are school summer holidays so insufferably long?
【1】 Many children will return from the long break having forgotten much of what they were taught the previous year. One study from the American South found that this “summer learning loss” could be as high as a quarter of the year’s education. Poor children tend to be the worst affected, since rich ones typically live in homes full of books and are packed off to summer camp to learn robotics, Latin or the flute. A study from Baltimore found that variations in summer loss might possibly account for two-thirds of the achievement gap between rich and poor children by the age of 14-15. Long holidays definitely strain the budgets of poor families, since free school meals stop and extra child care kicks in.
Summer holidays vary greatly from country to country. South Korea children get only three weeks off. Children in Italy and Turkey get a whopping three months. So do those in America, while their parents, unless they are teachers, have an average of only three weeks off a year, among the shortest holidays in the rich world. 【2】 But for their children, six weeks out of class is plenty.
It would be unwise to import South Korea’s pressure-cooker approach, in which a single exam determines every child’s future. 【3】 Yes, it would cost money, but there are ways to pay for it. One is to have larger classes. Many parents are obsessed with teacher-to-pupil ratios, but there is not enough evidence that they make much difference. The average Japanese lower-secondary class is more than 50% larger than the average British one, but Japanese children get better results.
More time in school need not mean repeating the same old lessons. 【4】 And the summer could also be a time for different kinds of learning: critical thinking, practical skills, financial literacy, work placements with local firms—schools should be free to experiment. Space should not be a problem. Many school buildings sit idle in the summer.
A.In other words, many public services are simply unavailable for a quarter of the year.
B.Some extra drilling would be beneficial, particularly for those falling behind.
C.This is a more serious question than it sounds.
D.Some well-off children often already use the summer to broaden their minds and even do their summer jobs.
E.But plenty of Western children could usefully spend a bit longer at their books.
F.Companies should let them take a bit more, since burnt-out workers are less productive.
23、It’s not easy to find a person with the qualities it takes to be a hero. I didn’t really understand the meaning of the word “hero” until my third year in the college.
If you saw her, you wouldn’t think she really looks the part, but she is stronger than Superman could ever be. Her name is Sandra Keierleber. I first met her at volleyball tryouts(选拔赛), but didn’t notice anything special at first. As the week passed, however, she showed she had more heart than anyone. She stood out because she never gave up, no matter what.
Sandra isn’t the tallest or the fastest --- in fact, this was her first time playing volleyball and it showed--- but that didn’t stop her. She was always the first to arrive and the last to leave. By the end of tryouts she had found a place in everyone’s heart. When the name list for new members was put up, we all waited nervously as she checked. When she stood at the door and smiled happily, all we could do was cheer.
After Sandra made the team, she worked even harder to improve her game. When she asked for help, we gladly taught her. She also became our fan, attending almost every school game and even joining us in the city games. We all like her, because she never thinks about doing things the easy way, or loses that smile. Because of her great efforts, she makes herself a true hero--- and my hero, too.
【1】What did the writer think of Sandra Keierleber at the beginning?
A. Common B. Honest C. Pretty. D. Strong
【2】Sandra began to play volleyball when ______________.
A. she was tall enough B. she was at college
C. she became a hero D. she met the Superman
【3】Which of the following is true about Sandra?
A. She was born a volleyball player.
B. She is popular with her teammates
C. She does things in an easy way.
D. She isn’t the tallest but the fastest.
【4】Why does the writer think of Sandra Keierleber as a true hero?
A. She did very well at the tryouts.
B. She asked for help from her teammates.
C. She took part in the city matches.
D. She worked hard and never gave up.
