Unit 2 Travelling Around
Passage1 阅读理解
The River Nile stretches more than 4,000 miles between Lake Victoria and the Mediterranean Sea. Out of all that length, the relatively short section between Aswan and Luxor in southern Egypt is the most fascinating. Read on for the main temples to visit on the journey down the Nile between Aswan and Luxor.
Philae Temple
This gorgeous Greco-Egyptian temple to the goddess Isis is easily reached by boat from Aswan. It was torn apart and moved to its current island location as part of the UNESCO project to save Nubia’s ancient monuments from the rising waters of Lake Nasser.
Abu Simbel
Although it’s not along the Nile between Aswan and Luxor, this stunning temple is often visited as a long day trip from Aswan by airplane or road. Constructed around 1260 BC, the temple was also rescued from Lake Nasser by the UNESCO project.
Edfu Temple
One of best-preserved temples from ancient times, the Edfu Temple is where the ancients worshiped the god of the sky. Over the centuries, the temple was nearly covered by sand from the nearby desert and inaccessible due to the annual flooding of the Nile, enabling it to be preserved in such an original state.
Temple of Karnak
The massive Temple of Karnak is both a masterpiece of ancient Egyptian architecture and one of the largest
temples ever constructed anywhere on the planet. It begs two visits: once by daylight to appreciate the engineering and artistic beauty of the Great Hypostyle Hall and again after dark when the ruins come alive during a sound and light show.
1 .Which temple will be a better choice if you plan to go at night
A .Abu Simbel. B .Edfu Temple. C .Philae Temple. D .Temple of Karnak.
2 .What do Philae Temple and Abu Simbel have in common
A .They are usually reached by boat. B .They are both located on an island.
C .They were once under the threat of floods. D .They were once pulled down and reconstructed.
3 .Why is Edfu Temple well preserved
A .Because it was difficult to spot and reach.
B .Because the ancients feared the power of the god.
C .Because it processed the beautiful scenery.
D .Because it was protected by the UNESCO project.

右。
Hudson had been looking forward to this trip for weeks. This was more than the usual excitement about end-of-year trips. And now, finally, after weeks of expectation, Hudson, Davion, Tasha, and their friends Trey and Justin were at Six Flags Great America, which was home to more roller coasters and games than any place north of
Florida.
They were waiting in line for the Twisted Twister—the scariest roller coaster. In front of them, the coaster rose threateningly out of the ground. From the very beginning, the Twisted Twister lived up to its name. The black coaster tracks corkscrewed 5 almost immediately. Then, the riders in the yellow cars were given a moment to catch their breath as they were cranked (转动) slowly to the top of a hill. But the relief didn’t last long. As soon as the
roller coaster cars were over the peak, the track twisted again. And again and again and again.
Glancing at it, Hudson felt his stomach was too tight to say anything at all, The Twisted Twister was the scariest roller coaster he had ever seen. But he wasn’t about to mention his fear to his friends. Because they would tell him that he was acting like a little kid, too scared to go on the park’s best ride. He felt dorky and awkward standing there. The sea of people between them and the Twisted Twister was steadily getting smaller. Hudson smiled weakly as his friends cheered when they counted just three rope barriers to go. Then two. Then one. And then they were at the stairs. Davion, Justin, and Trey were nearly jumping up and down with excitement. But Hudson could only hear people screaming, and he couldn’t even tell if the screams were because of delight or terror.
And he knew, suddenly, that he could not make it.
注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Without a word, Hudson turned, pushed past the crowd and ran out of the line.

Passage1
Dear Tom,
I’m glad to share a truly unforgettable travel experience that I had during my last summer holiday with you.
On July 7, my parents and I took a bus to Leshan, Sichuan Province, which is famous for its Buddha. The Buddha is really big. Looking up at the large head and down at the large feet, I felt I was so small. The next day, weclimbed Mount Emei, where there are many old temples and wild monkeys. The naughty monkeys were the most exciting things I experienced there. Toward evening we made our way back. We were all tired, but our trip to Leshan was really enjoyable.
I’m looking forward to going there with you next time.
Yours, Li Hua

Passage2
I am concerned about the phenomenon when the term “Instagram place” was coined to describe those scenic spots in China, which have gone viral online overnight due to the influence of those popular photo-sharing apps. Objectively speaking, being an Instagram place is a double-edged sword, and its negatives outweigh its positives.
Take my trip as an example. Last Sunday, my classmates and I went to our local Instagram place, a wetland park. The shuttle buses overcrowded, the aggressive and choked traffic disappointed us. Worse still, hardly had we followed the endless stream of people into the park when we became shocked at the rubbish everywhere,
uncollected. What we experienced changed our perception of the park. How I miss that quiet, clean park where I used to kill time by reading my novel peacefully!
In the face of a flood of tourists, those “Instagram places” make an immediate profit, but they tend to confront awkward problems, such as traffic congestion, a messy environment, and tourists’ poor experience, which, in turn, will have an adverse effect on the “Instagram places” themselves.

One possible version:
Without a word, Hudson turned, pushed past the crowd and ran out of the line. Their faces blurred in front of him. He’d made it down the stairs before he stopped to take a breath. Now that his fear and panic had started tofade, embarrassment was creeping in. “Hey!” Somehow, Tasha was standing in front of him, “It’s okay if you are afraid. I get so scared before shows that I can’t eat for about two hours before going on stage.” Shocked to hear those words, Hudson stood still without any words. It suddenly hit him that what mattered most was to have fun with his friends.
Just then, he saw his otherfriends coming, big smiles on theirfaces. “Are you ready to try with us ” Davion said. Seeing their grins and encouraging eyes, Hudson nodded his head. The moment they got to the stairs, his stomach started to clench again, but he tried to take each step forward. Finally, he got in the car. WHOOSH! Almost without warning, the ride started. It felt like he’d left his heart on the loading platform. He was flying and he heard himself scream as delight spilled out of him. Later when they got out, they took a picture by the ride’s sign. It served as a reminder of what was more important to him than fear.
