21、Hiking, a kind of interaction with nature, provides fantastic exercise, combining sightseeing and workouts into one. Here are some unforgettable hiking vacations that will lead you into the thick of your destination.
Larapinta Trail, Australia
Dying for a good hike through the outback(内陆)? Then head to Australia’ s Larapinta Trail, a 130-mile trip through the Northern Territory of the island continent. Almost the entire hike is desert. Perhaps the best way to end a long day in the hot Australian sun is to watch the pink-and-orange sunset, open a sleeping bag and look up. Repeat visitors to the Larapinta say this part of Australia offers some of the best stargazing in the world.
Inca Trail, Peru
Today, as part of an effort to minimize environmental impact, trail(线路) access is limited to 500 people per day, and most hikers participate as part of guided groups. And the most thoughtful thing is that the groups hire porters to carry the luggage, so hikers need only to worry about enjoying the scenery! Most of these organized trails include tent accommodations and surprisingly delicious three-course meals. Of course, they also include a final day at Machu Picchu, the “Lost City of the Incas”.
Cape Scott Trail, British Columbia
To call the five-day hike challenging would be the understatement of the century. The adventure begins gradually. From the trailhead at Cape Scott Provincial Park, the trail follows an old settler's road along a stream through a 4-mile stretch of wetland. With every step, the mud threatens to add to what surely has become a sizable boot collection. Because the rivers are so wide, visitors have to take the cable-car.
Via Ferrata, Italy
The trails themselves date to World War I, when Italian forces built them as a way to move soldiers from one section of the Alps to another. Today, with the war in the distant past, the routes provide the perfect venue for hikers looking for a day-long escape.
【1】What attracts visitors most for Larapinta Trail?
A．Having the longest hike.
B．Touring the continent.
C．Exploring in the desert.
D．Watching the starry sky.
【2】What makes Inca Trail sweet?
A．Free accommodations are provided.
B．Hikers needn't take their luggage.
C．Hikers themselves serve as guides.
D．The meals are specially cooked.
【3】Which of the following trails might be risky for hikers?
A．Inca Trail.
B．Larapinta Trail.
C．Cape Scott Trail.
D．Via Ferrata.
22、 Think of the many different ways you enjoy fish or other seafood: steaming fish ball soup, grilled salmon, boiled shrimp and more. Now think about not having this delicious food because of no more fish and seafood. You would likely miss them a lot, and not just you. Nearly half of the world’s population relies on seafood as a major source of protein.
Harvesting fish and other sea life isn’t bad for the ocean, but harvesting it faster than it can recover is. This is called overfishing, and the number of overfished wild stocks has tripled in the past 50 years. Overfishing affects not only a food source but many economies. Many businesses and jobs depend on fishing for their livelihoods. When fish stocks shrink, people lose their means of supporting themselves and their families. Worldwide, fishing is US $362 billion business. Over 4 million fishing boats sail the waters of the world. Many boats are becoming increasingly efficient, which increases overfishing.
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN, one third of the world’s fisheries are being pushed beyond their natural limits. Overfishing goes hand in hand with bycatch (误捕的鱼). This means unwanted sea life is captured along with the desired catch and is thrown away. Thus, billions of fish along with seabirds, sea turtles and millions of sharks are lost.
The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) has been working with scientists, fisheries and seafood producers for over 20 years. They have developed standards promoting sustainable fishing. When fisheries meet MSC’s standards, the oceans and those who make a living from them are protected. Around 15 percent of wild-capture fisheries are now MSC certified. And Fishery Improvement Projects (FIPS) in many countries are working to increase that percentage.
What can you do? Look for MSC’s blue fish label, which appears on over 30,000 products and menus in almost 100 countries. Buying a product with this label means you’re supporting a fishery that is contributing to healthier oceans.
【1】Which of the following opinions will the author favor?
A．We need to develop more fish recipes.
B．Many people consider seafood as nutritious.
C．You can never eat fish and other seafood too much.
D．It’s great to treat your friends to tasty seafood.
【2】What can be inferred from paragraph 2?
A．Many people live by fishing.
B．Overfishing isn’t always bad for the ocean.
C．Fishing economies are picking up soon.
D．Many boats have no fish to catch.
【3】What measure has been taken concerning overfishing?
A．Bycatch is thrown back.
B．More investment is put in fisheries.
C．All the countries are called on to conserve the ocean.
D．Some requirements for green fishing are made.
【4】What's the author’s suggestion for readers?
A．Buying the seafood with MSC’s certification.
B．Looking for MSC’s blue fish label worldwide.
C．Making contributions to fishing in eco-friendly environment.
D．Predicting about the oceans and the fish for years to come.
23、 To deal with the lack of light so far beneath the surface of the ocean, many deep-sea creatures employ a form of bioluminescence, a chemical reaction in their bodies that produces light but not heat. Biologists believe bioluminescence serves several functions. First, for some fish, it acts like a flashlight by enabling them to see as they swim while in others, it helps them attract mates. And some creatures use their light to draw in other sea life, which is then attacked and consumed. However, bioluminescence is a poor substitute for sunlight, so many deep-sea creatures have developed extra sensors to assist them. For example, some have evolved stronger senses of smell to detect the chemical scents sent out by members of the same species, which enable them to find mates.
While going down deeper, the water places intense pressures on everything. To avoid being crushed, many creatures have evolved by becoming smaller as opposed to the more inflexible body structures of animals living near the surface. And some creatures have specialized molecular structures that help them better withstand the pressure. The molecules they are made up of, are common in all fish and are responsible for the distinct smell most fish have, but fish living at great depths have more of them and therefore have an even more intense smell.
The temperature of the water here stays between -1℃ and 4℃, which is cold enough to freeze most life. Some animals move at slow speeds to conserve energy. Some spots on the ocean floor release energy from the Earth’s interior. Around these hot spots, many life forms reside, and they have established their own unique ecosystems.
Another problem is food. There is a distinct lack of sea life for predators to catch so that many others depend on marine snow, the remains of dead fish falling from levels above the deepest parts of the ocean. Deep-sea creatures frequently have slower metabolisms that enable them to survive for long periods of time on small amounts of food. Since many creatures living deep in the ocean have multiple adaptations, they not only survive but also thrive.
【1】What is bioluminescence used for?
A．Producing heat.

24、I was recently surfing the Internet when I came across a collection of strange beach photos where everyone had a cloth wall surrounding their little patch of sand. I had never seen anything like it before, and I was interested in it. So I started searching all sorts of phrases that might throw light on the mystery of Polish beach separators.
I found a site on Poland’s affairs that actually covered this “phenomenon” in details. According to the site, beach separators have been a part of Polish beach-going culture for a long time, but have recently been getting a lot of attention online, after foreign tourists started posting photos on social networks.
Beach separators vary in size according to the size of the group. You’ll see tiny ones only surrounding the space around a single beach towel, and giant ones separating a large part of the beach. They weren’t designed to protect their users from prying(窥探)eyes. It’s no secret that strong winds are very common on the shores of the Baltic Sea, so they were originally meant to allow beach-goers to enjoy sunbathing without having their belongings blown away, or sand blown in their faces.
However, in recent years, people have begun criticizing them. During the summer, beach separators are placed so close to each other that a person can hardly pass between them, let alone find a place to put their own beach towels. This creates a problem for foreign tourists unfamiliar with them, who just want a place to lie down on the sand. And thus they can easily create all kinds of conflicts due to the lack of space. For example, some people leave the beach for hours but leave their separators in place to make sure that their space doesn’t get occupied by someone else.
Having visited a fair number of seaside resorts(度假胜地)across Europe, I admit that I have never seen anything like this before.
【1】What attracted the author’s attention according to the first paragraph?
A. Some phrases B. The cloth walls
C. The sand patches D. The colorful stones
【2】Why did the beach-goes set up separators?
A. To attract others’ attention B. To keep themselves in privates

【3】What seems to be the problem with beach separators?
A. They cause plenty of garbage
B. They make the beach overcrowded
C. They leave their separators unattended
D. They lead to many crimes against foreigners
【4】What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To encourage the local tourism in Poland
B. To introduce a kind of Polish beach culture
C. To discuss the possibilities of solving the beach problem
D. To urge the tourism department to face the beach problem
25、I realize that we all live in a world where mutual(相互的) trust is in short supply.
