Fairy Chimneys (仙女烟囱)

The Earliest Mummies (木乃伊)
Wrapped simply in reeds and decorated with hair and clay masks,Chile’s Chinchorro mummies are 2,000 years older than Egypt’s.At San Miguel de Azapa Archaeological Museum,only a few of the 300 samples are on view,while at Colón 10,visitors can see 48 mummies buried in the earth through a glass floor.
Dinosaur Fossils
Dinosaur Provincial Park in Canada gives some paleontologists (古生物学者) a chance to explore landscapes.Although visitors are not permitted to dig in this fragile environment,the park offers a full schedule of family-friendly fossil tours,guided activities,and dinosaur displays.Families can camp out under the stars and dream of the days when various dinosaurs lived in this region.

语篇导读:本文是应用文。文章主要介绍了被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产的几个全球景点的相关信息。
答案及剖析:
1.C　细节理解题。根据“Wildlife Wonders”部分的第二句可知,这里生活着地球上最濒危的动物,包括现存数量最多的大象、猎豹、非洲野狗、肉垂鹤和大白鹈鹕。由此可知Okavango Delta的亮点是多样化的野生物种。故选C。
2.B　细节理解题。根据“The Earliest Mummies”部分可知,智利的Chinchorro木乃伊仅用芦苇包裹,用毛发和黏土面具装饰,比埃及的木乃伊早了2 000年。因此,如果游客想看最早的木乃伊,应该去智利。故选B。
3.A　细节理解题。根据“Dinosaur Fossils”部分可知,在恐龙省立公园一家人可以在星空下露营,想象着各种恐龙生活在这个地区的日子。故选A。
B
Holidays can be very exciting but they require a bit of preparation in advance to make sure everything goes smoothly.One requirement is to pack for the trip—and an organisational expert has exposed an important luggage mistake.
Holidays see many travellers grabbing (抓住) the majority of their clothing while packing in a panic,but they won’t have enough options when they get to their destination.This often ends up in overpacking,and numerous items never being worn.It’s important to think carefully about what you put in your luggage.Cutting down the items to take is the key.
An organisational expert,Vicky Silverthorn,provides some tips around how packing can be made much easier.The result is a less stressful experience,meaning people get more out of their holidays.
One of Vicky’s top holiday tips is to make sure you pack clothes together.“Everyone’s made the mistake of not thinking through clothes while packing—throwing random items into a suitcase before realising that nothing goes,” Vicky said.“To avoid this,pack complete clothes together so that every item has a purpose.When you come to unpack they’ll be ready to wear,and it always works to separate them out by ‘pool’‘beach’‘evening’ and so on.”
Vicky claims,“The night before you travel is also important—and,if you’re travelling early,you can make life easier for yourself in advance.One top tip is to leave your suitcase by the front door along with a list of things to do before you leave the house.If you do this the night before,you’ll limit the chances of forgetting any key details,this can be particularly vital if you’re flying with family.”
(　　)4.What’s the purpose of this passage
A.To make a summary about travelling.
B.To advertise travelling for a company.
C.To inform some guidelines about travelling.
D.To provide some suggestions about how to pack.
(　　)5.What do travellers mostly do when packing
A.They are in a panic while packing.
B.They take too many clothing never being worn.
C.They won’t have enough options about their destination.
D.They think carefully about what they put in their luggage.
(　　)6.What is Vicky’s suggestion for packing clothes
A.Packing together with someone.
B.Throwing random items into a suitcase.
C.Arranging clothes for a specific purpose.
D.Wearing suitable clothes to a certain place.
(　　)7.Why should a traveller put things near the front door
A.Because he travels early.
B.Because the front door is near.
C.Because he can fly with his family.
D.Because it might prevent leaving important items behind.
语篇导读:本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一些关于如何打包行李的建议。
答案及剖析:
4.D　推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句和第三段第一句可知,本文的目的是提供一些关于如何打包行李的建议。故选D。
5.B　细节理解题。根据第二段前两句可知,在度假期间,许多旅行者在打包行李时惊慌失措,装了大部分衣服,但当他们到达目的地时,他们却没有足够的选择。这往往导致过度打包,许多衣服总穿不着。由此可知,旅行者在打包行李时通常会携带太多从来不穿的衣服。故选B。
6.C　细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知,为了避免这种情况,把成套的衣服打包在一起,这样每一套衣服都有一个用途。把它们按“泳池”“海滩”“晚上”等词区分开来总是很有效的。故Vicky建议为特定用途安排衣服。故选C。
7.D　细节理解题。根据最后一段最后两句可知,旅行者要把东西放在前门附近,因为这样可以防止遗漏重要的东西。故选D。
