You are allowed to bring your pets to Yellowstone National Park. There are specific rules that pet owners must be aware of for the protection and safety of their pets, themselves and wildlife. These rules have been developed over the years from experiences with pets, wildlife and accidents in the park.
Yellowstone National Park is a natural area where wildlife is free to wander undisturbed. Park visitors should be able to enjoy native wildlife in their natural environment without the disruption (干扰) of other people’s pets. For this reason, pets are banned in the backcountry and on trails and boardwalks or thermal areas (温泉区).
Some additional reasons why pets are prohibited in the backcountry and on trails and boardwalks:
* Pets occasionally escape from their owners. Pet animals generally lack the ability to survive in the wild.
* There is a strong possibility that your pet could become prey for a bear, coyote, owl or other predators.
* There is a possibility of exchange of diseases between pet animals and wildlife.
Pets may accompany you in the front country areas of the park. This includes any area within 100 feet/30.5meters of roads, parking areas and campgrounds. Pets must be kept under physical control at all times — caged, crated or on a leash not to exceed six feet in length.
There is no kennel facility within Yellowstone National Park.
Remember: Pets leave traces other than footprints. The owner is responsible for cleanup and disposal of all pet body wastes. Please be thoughtful of other visitors as well as your pet.
21．What can park visitors do in Yellowstone National Park
A．Get away from pet animals and wildlife.
B．Protect themselves from other visitors’ pets and wildlife.
C．Keep physical control of any pet disturbing their visit in the park.

Liu Yang, China’s first female astronaut, reportedly, has touched the hearts of millions with a letter to her two children that was made public after she set off into space for the second time earlier this month.
“You’re my strongest armor (盔甲) and softest spot. I didn’t allow you to see me off at the launch site because I was afraid that I would burst into tears,” Liu wrote in the letter to her daughter, 8, and son, 6, just days before being launched into space for the second time on June 5 on the Shenzhou XIV mission.
Liu, 43, became China’s first female astronaut in 2012, when she spent 13 days in space during the Shenzhou IX mission. During the Shenzhou XIV mission, she will stay at the Tiangong space station for six months, working with two male colleagues to complete the construction of the station.
Many people said that Liu’s words allowed them to see that a national hero is also an ordinary mother, and they wished for her safe return. “Liu fully expressed her love for her children in the letter. It brought tears to my eyes,” commented one netizen on Sina Weibo, China’s Twitter-like micro-blogging platform.
“I feel more confident and relaxed,” Liu told the media ahead of the launch of the Shenzhou XIV mission. “When I was about to return to the orbital module during the Shenzhou IX mission, I stopped and turned around to salute (致敬) the experimental space station module that I stayed in. At that moment, I told myself that I would come back to space in the near future. I didn’t expect the ‘near future’ to be a decade long,” Liu said.
In the letter, she encouraged her children not to be afraid of failure while pursuing their dreams. Liu added that she felt sorry that she could not be there for her son on his first day at primary school.
“Although I cannot be with you, I won’t love you any less,” she wrote in the letter. “My babies, if you miss me, just look up into the starry sky. Every time you see the stars twinkle, it’s because I’m saying ‘I love you’.”
24．What is the common reason for Liu’s and netizen’s tears
A．Liu’s affection for her children. B．Liu’s determined expressions.
C．Liu’s separation from her family. D．Liu’s refusal to meet with her kids.
25．Which of the following best describes Liu taking over the Shenzhou XIV mission
A．Thoughtful and excited. B．Brave and hopeful.
C．Confident and unexpected. D．Optimistic and well-equipped.
26．What is Liu’s purpose of writing this letter
A．To say sorry to her children and comfort them. B．To encourage kids to try.
C．To attract public attention. D．To praise the spirit of space.
27．From which is the text probably taken
A．A news coverage. B．A woman’s autobiography.
C．A Chinese textbook. D．A science magazine.
Coming into the town of Santa Catarin a Palopó, in the highlands of Lake Atitlan inGuatemala, the first thing you notice is the bright colors. Most of the buildings along the main street are eye-catching, in deep blues and greens, dotted with red and yellow to form diverse patterns and designs.
Santa Catarin a Palopo was once a sleepy town of 5,000 people, most of them dependent on agricultural work. But as agriculture began to dry up here, poverty came. To deal with poverty and promote economic growth through tourism, a small but creative group of laborers, artisans, domestic workers and stay-at-home moms created the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project.
The project aimed to paint all 850 homes and buildings in bright colors to change the hillside town into a work of art. “We wanted to paint the houses with colors and figures that represent the community,” says the project's executive director Stephany Blanco. “Families can choose designs for their house that are representative of the family.”
One of the most representative characteristics of the region is the blue huipil, a traditional blouse which has been worn commonly by local women since the 16th century.That deep sky blue was chosen as the primary color for the Pintando project, with secondary colors found in the sunsets and the nearby lake to make the design more attractive. Inspiration was also found in local culture, symbols such as volcanoes, flowers, and the national bird ofGuatemala.
Each week, local artists, community members and tourists pick up paintbrushes to make buildings colorful. “At first, the idea of the project was uncertain, but now you can see a considerable difference in the town,” Melissa Whitbeck said. “The color of the buildings is believed to improve the quality of life of the people. It uplifts the people's mood and encourages them to be proud of their hometown.”
28．Why was the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project started
A．Because of a workforce shortage.
B．Due to the poor economic conditions.
C．Thanks to the increase in population.

29．What is the project about
A．Building family art galleries in Guatemala.
B．Creating job opportunities for local artists.
C．Developing local tourism by selling artworks.
D．Changing the town into a cultural destination.
30．What is the inspiration of the primary color for the project
A．The surrounding volcanoes.
B．Mayan-styled butterflies.
C．A type of traditional clothing.
D．The national bird of Guatemala.
31．What is Melissa’ s attitude towards the project
A．Positive. B．Critical. C．Concerned. D．Doubtful.

M: Yes, I’ve seen many of her videos.
5．A
【原文】M: When are you going to give me the schedule

W: I'm really fond of different kinds of butterflies worldwide. It must be a natural place to take photos, but what is dog run
M: It's located on a hill and it's for dogs to run freely. Do you want to watch dogs play there
W: Frankly I'm not interested in it, but my kids will be like a dog with two tails if they go there. They are dog lovers. Should I order tickets in advance
M: No, you can get into it for free through the main entrance or from Pavilion Park. There's one more access, but that's not convenient.

W: What inspired you to make such an app
M: Back then, some of my classmates complained that they didn’t like preparing for their exams. They found it boring. So I wanted to create an app that could make learning more fun. In the end, I created an app that lets teachers create resources in the form of game style quizzes.
W: Is it helpful
M: I think so. Students love using it. Now it is used by learners in more than 100 countries across the world. Research shows that it can increase learning by up to 14%.
W: I’ll certainly introduce it to my younger brother. I hope it can help him learn better.

18．B 19．C 20．B
【原文】M: Did you hear that the business negotiation between our Chinese team and the German partner almost failed
W: Really, why I thought the terms were well discussed.
M: It was all because of a body language misunderstanding. The German partner Mr Schmidt patted our female team leader on the shoulder to show appreciation, but she felt uncomfortable because physical contact between opposite genders is less common in our culture.
W: That’s tricky. Were there other misunderstandings
M: Yes, Mr Schmidt thought our team wasn’t interested because they nodded frequently. He didn’t know that in Chinese culture, frequent nodding often means I’m listening rather than full agreement.
W: No wonder he was confused. Cultural differences in body language can really affect communication.
