Our planet has many amazing places, and one of them is Vinicunca in Peru. Known as the Rainbow Mountain, it is famous for its bright lines of red, yellow, green and purple. It is part of the Andes Mountains(安第斯山脉), the longest mountain chain(山脉) on earth. At 5,200 metres tall, it is even taller than other famous mountains. Did you know the Andes grow about 1 centimetre higher every year Visitors say visiting the Rainbow Mountain feels like stepping into a magical world!
The colourful lines come from different rocks under the ground. For example, iron(铁) in the rocks turns red when it meets air, and a yellow material called sulfur(硫磺) makes the bright yellow lines. Over thousands of years, wind and rain slowly washed away dirt and ice, showing these colourful parts. Scientists say it's like nature is an artist! The colours also change with the weather—— they look bright in sunlight and softer on cloudy days.
Before 2015, the Rainbow Mountain was covered in ice. When the ice turned into water because of warmer weather, the colours became perceptible(看得出的). Now, many travellers visit it every year. But too many people walking here can harm the mountain. To protect it, local villagers control the number of visitors and ask everyone to follow simple rules, like taking rubbish home.
The Rainbow Mountain reminds us that earth's wonders are both beautiful and easily harmed. Saving these places helps plants, animals, and people who live close by. Everyone can help! If we treat nature kindly, we can protect the mountain. Helping local guides means villagers can protect their home better, and telling friends about the Rainbow Mountain teaches others to care too. Even small steps today can keep this colourful wonder safe for tomorrow.
( )55. 新考向 段落大意 What's the main idea of Paragraph 2
A. The reasons for the Rainbow Mountain's colours.
B. Which colours look bright in different weather.
C. The importance of protecting the Rainbow Mountain.
( )56. What does the underlined word“it” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. The ice. B. Warmer weather. C. Rainbow Mountain.
( )57. 新考向主题推断 What's the main theme of the passage
A. Science. B. Nature. C. Travel.
( )58. 新考向 写作意图 What's the writer's purpose of writing the passage
A. To introduce a natural place and call for its protection.
B. To describe the reasons for rock colours in nature.
C. To encourage people to visit the Rainbow Mountain.

Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber. 59 Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure in South America, covering 7,800 miles. He was even named“the Adventurer of the Year”by a famous geography magazine in 2018.
Although Jerry has achieved great success, he didn't feel satisfied(满意的). He asked himself,“Is it enough to climb the highest mountains Am I doing something helpful 60 ”
Jerry learned that some scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本) from the places far away to do research. However, the scientists can't get there themselves as such places are hard to reach— only the bravest adventurers can make it. 61 He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for the scientists. 62
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant on Mount Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped the scientists learn how plants live in extreme(极端的) conditions.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is the most satisfying.“Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn't important for me. 63 There is still much more we can do,” said Jerry.
A. Adventurers can sometimes work as scientists. B. Jerry thought that he could do something to help. C. He has climbed many high mountains in the world. D. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing mountains. E. How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world F. By studying the samples, the scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.
