In March 2020, a group of 16 strong elephants became international stars because of their starting long northern journey from Xishuangbanna in Yunnan Province.
The group did not harm any people or animals during their long march, but caused chaos on farms. In December, a baby elephant was born.
The wild group was seen on CCTV walking down the streets of the city at night, and they were also filmed constantly by more than a dozen drones (无人机) — which, the Chinese government said, were helping to minimize damage and keep the animalsand people out of danger.
The group had a sudden attack on farms for food and water and even showed upat a care home, where they reached out their trunks into some of the rooms, makingone elderly man hide under his bed. Meanwhile, reports said the damage caused tocrops totaled more than 700,000.
In April 2021, seventeen animals were originally in the group, but the government said two returned home during the walk.There were many guesses about the reasons for the migration (迁徙) of the elephants. Some people thought the elephants appeared to be especially attracted to com, fruit and other crops. Others supposed that the elephants’ leader might simply be lost in the rich tropical region, which is home to about 300 other Asian elephants. But, in fact, there was no exact scientific explanation.
In order not to do any harm to the species, farmers and others were told to exercise maximum control when they met with them, while the government had ordered people to stay inside and not use firecrackers or other techniques to frighten them away. Less force was being used to keep them out of the city, like parking cars and some equipment to block roads and using food drops to attract them away.
More than 410 emergency response police, lots of vehicles and 14 drones had been used to monitor the group. Locals were evacuated (疏散); short-time traffic control measures were carried out, and two tons of elephant food was put in place. Finally, this group of migrating elephants returned to their wild living areas safely under the protection of everyone.
4. What can we know about the elephants on the move
A. They attacked an elderly man.
B. One of them gave birth to a baby elephant
C. They damaged a care home.
D. They harmed the animals on farms.
5. Which of the following can best describe the reasons for the elephants’migration
A. approval. B. Unsure C. Boring. D. Worrying.
6. How did the government drive the elephants away
A. They scared them by techniques. B. They trahsported them by vehicles.
C They guided them in a friendly way. D. They made loud noise with firecrackers.
7. What does the last paragraph intend to tell us
A. The elephants caused a lot of damage.
B. The elephants enjoyed a high level of protection.
C. The government felt powerless to stop the elephants.
D. The government successfully sent the elephants to the zoo.
C
Too much eating. Too many unhealthy foods. Too many ads for food. Too few activities. Different reasons are given for America’s weight problem---a problem increasingly shared by other countries. Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight.
Schools have been asked to increase physical education an important tool for public health. However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in P.E. classes.
Researchers say one possible reason for this is a decrease in the number of school nurses. Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.
Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education. This “New P.E.” expands the kinds of sports that are taught. But activities that some schools offer now, like rock climbing and skateboarding, can also increase the risks, says Cheryl Richardson, who is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education(NASPE).
She also says not all states require P.E. teachers to be specially trained. Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.
Cheryl Richardson points to one of the study’s findings –that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure. This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.
Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries: running, basketball, football, volleyball, rugby and gymnastics.
The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries. Larger classes can mean less supervision(监督). The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E. class should be the limit.
8. What does the passage mainly discuss
A. What leads to the weight problem in America.
B. Whether students should have more P.E. classes.
C. Why there have been more injuries in P.E. classes.
D. What kinds of activities are safe for school students.
9. We can know from the third paragraph that__________.
A. nurses are paid more in hospitals than in schools in America.
B. many nurses in American schools don’t have good skills.
C. fewer people choose to become a nurse in America.
D. American schools need more school nurses at present.
10. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. P.E. classes become more dangerous for students now in America.
B. Fewer and fewer students are interested in P.E. classes in America.
C. The number of P.E. teachers in schools must be increased now.
D. P.E. classes follow the traditional ideas in physical education.
11. According to Cheryl Richardson,____________.
A. students should do more exercise when they are at school
B. teachers are partly responsible for injuries in P.E. classes
C. the equipment for P.E. classes must be improved in all schools.
D. P.E. teachers should give students more freedom in their classes
D
How clever can a computer be Maybe you can get the answer after reading the following passage about a newly-developed US computer program called SmarterChild.
If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can remember many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows everybaseball player in every team this season and the weather in every city across the US.He also knows every word in the dictionary. However, if you ask Smarter Child other private questions, you will get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns, “I’ll be older than you after further study!”, and asking where he lives, you will get, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”
Smarter Child uses the huge information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for example, Smarter Child goes towww.ahdictionary.com. For the weather, he visits www.. He turns to www.the- for scientists and www. for a fantastic movie.
Some scientists believe that by joining many systems of the Internet, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the combined (结合的) knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, Smarter Child has difficulty in discerning whether a behavior is right or wrong, which is obvious to any young child. If he wants to think and learn without any help from the programmers like boy-computer David in the movie Artificial Intelligence (AI), he must solve two problems.
The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files aresorted in different ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where tolook for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it byhimself. Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information moreexactly and faster than any human, he needs programmers to make better systems thatallow machines to solve problems of common sense, which is a huge challenge.
12. What may be unknown to Smarter Child
A. A word in the dictionary. B. The weather in New York.
C. personal information D. A player’s name of the Boston Redsox.
13. Which website can Smarter Child visit to answer the spelling questions
A. www. B. www.
C. www.the- D. www.ahdictionary.com
14 What does the underlined word“discerning”in paragraph 4 mean
A. Preventing、 B. Copying. C. Inventing. D. Telling
15. How is boy-computer David diffeIent from Smarter Child
A. He has a huge memory. B. He can think and learn independently.
C. He can make a weather forecast. D. He deals with information fast.

It was summer, and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Uncle Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm, “he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze (吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper, “Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven (编织的) blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.

In March 2020, a group of 16 strong elephants became international stars because of their starting long northern journey from Xishuangbanna in Yunnan Province.
The group did not harm any people or animals during their long march, but caused chaos on farms. In December, a baby elephant was born.
The wild group was seen on CCTV walking down the streets of the city at night, and they were also filmed constantly by more than a dozen drones (无人机) — which, the Chinese government said, were helping to minimize damage and keep the animalsand people out of danger.
The group had a sudden attack on farms for food and water and even showed upat a care home, where they reached out their trunks into some of the rooms, makingone elderly man hide under his bed. Meanwhile, reports said the damage caused tocrops totaled more than 700,000.
In April 2021, seventeen animals were originally in the group, but the government said two returned home during the walk.There were many guesses about the reasons for the migration (迁徙) of the elephants. Some people thought the elephants appeared to be especially attracted to com, fruit and other crops. Others supposed that the elephants’ leader might simply be lost in the rich tropical region, which is home to about 300 other Asian elephants. But, in fact, there was no exact scientific explanation.
In order not to do any harm to the species, farmers and others were told to exercise maximum control when they met with them, while the government had ordered people to stay inside and not use firecrackers or other techniques to frighten them away. Less force was being used to keep them out of the city, like parking cars and some equipment to block roads and using food drops to attract them away.
More than 410 emergency response police, lots of vehicles and 14 drones had been used to monitor the group. Locals were evacuated (疏散); short-time traffic control measures were carried out, and two tons of elephant food was put in place. Finally, this group of migrating elephants returned to their wild living areas safely under the protection of everyone.
4. What can we know about the elephants on the move
A. They attacked an elderly man.
B. One of them gave birth to a baby elephant
C. They damaged a care home.
D. They harmed the animals on farms.
5. Which of the following can best describe the reasons for the elephants’migration

6. How did the government drive the elephants away
A. They scared them by techniques. B. They trahsported them by vehicles.
C. They guided them in a friendly way. D. They made loud noise with firecrackers.
7. What does the last paragraph intend to tell us
A. The elephants caused a lot of damage.
B. The elephants enjoyed a high level of protection.
C. The government felt powerless to stop the elephants.
D. The government successfully sent the elephants to the zoo.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了2020年3月开始的一群大象从云南西双版纳向北迁徙的事件，包括大象迁徙的过程、对当地的影响、人们对此的反应以及关于大象迁徙原因的各种猜测。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The group did not harm any people or animals during their long march, but caused chaos on farms. In December, a baby elephant was born.(这群大象在长途跋涉中并未伤害任何人或动物，但却在农场里制造了混乱。在12月，一只小象诞生了。)”可知，在这群大象迁徙的过程中有只小象出生了，也就是有头大象生了一只小象。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“There were many guesses about the reasons for the migration (迁徙) of the elephants. Some people thought the elephants appeared to be especially attracted to corn, fruit and other crops. Others supposed that the elephants’ leader might simply be lost in the rich tropical region, which is home to about 300 other Asian elephants. But, in fact, there was no exact scientific explanation.(关于大象迁徙的原因有很多猜测。一些人认为大象似乎特别喜欢玉米、水果和其他作物。另一些人猜测，大象的首领可能只是在富饶的热带地区迷路了，那里生活着大约300头其他亚洲象。但事实上，并没有确切的科学解释)”可知，对于大象迁徙的原因，人们并不明确。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第六段“In order not to do any harm to the species, farmers and others were told to exercise maximum control when they met with them, while the government had ordered people to stay inside and not use firecrackers or other techniques to frighten them away. Less force was being used to keep them out of the city, like parking cars and some equipment to block roads and using food drops to attract them away. (为了不伤害这个物种，农民和其他人被告知，当他们遇到它们时，要最大限度地控制它们，而政府则命令人们呆在家里，不要用鞭炮或其他方法吓跑它们。用较少的武力将他们赶出城市，比如停车和一些设备来封锁道路，用食物来吸引他们。)”可知，政府并没有采取强硬措施驱赶大象，而是采用了较为友好的方式来引导它们。例如，使用食物来吸引大象离开，并使用车辆和设备来封锁道路，但并没有使用鞭炮或其他方法来吓唬它们。因此，可以推断出政府是以友好的方式引导大象，而不是驱赶它们。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“More than 410 emergency response police, lots of vehicles and 14 drones had been used to monitor the group. Locals were evacuated(疏散); short-time traffic control measures were carried out, and two tons of elephant food was put in place. Finally, this group of migrating elephants returned to their wild living areas safely under the protection of everyone.(410多名应急警察、大量车辆和14架无人机被用来监视这群人。当地居民被疏散；实施了短时交通管制措施，并安置了两吨大象食物。最后，这群迁徙的大象在大家的保护下安全返回了野外栖息地。)”可知，最后一段提到了当局为监测这群大象动用了大量资源，包括应急警察、车辆和无人机，并对当地居民进行了疏散，实施了交通管制措施，还放置了大象食物。这些措施表明政府为了确保大象的安全和减少它们对人类的潜在威胁，给予了高度的关注和保护。因此，最后一段意在告诉我们这群大象受到了高级别的保护。故选B。
C
Too much eating. Too many unhealthy foods. Too many ads for food. Too few activities. Different reasons are given for America’s weight problem---a problem increasingly shared by other countries. Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight.
Schools have been asked to increase physical education, an important tool for public health. However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in P.E. classes.
Researchers say one possible reason for this is a decrease in the number of school nurses. Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.
Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education. This “New P.E.” expands the kinds of sports that are taught. But activities that some schools offer now, like rock climbing and skateboarding, can also increase the risks, says Cheryl Richardson, who is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education(NASPE).
She also says not all states require P.E. teachers to be specially trained. Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.
Cheryl Richardson points to one of the study’s findings –that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure. This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.
Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries: running, basketball, football, volleyball, rugby and gymnastics.
The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries. Larger classes can mean less supervision(监督). The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E. class should be the limit.
8. What does the passage mainly discuss
A. What leads to the weight problem in America.
B. Whether students should have more P.E. classes.
C. Why there have been more injuries in P.E. classes.
D. What kinds of activities are safe for school students.
9. We can know from the third paragraph that__________.
A. nurses are paid more in hospitals than in schools in America.
B. many nurses in American schools don’t have good skills.
C. fewer people choose to become a nurse in America.
D. American schools need more school nurses at present.
10. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. P.E. classes become more dangerous for students now in America.
B. Fewer and fewer students are interested in P.E. classes in America.
C. The number of P.E. teachers in schools must be increased now.
D. P.E. classes follow the traditional ideas in physical education.
11. According to Cheryl Richardson,____________.
A. students should do more exercise when they are at school
B. teachers are partly responsible for injuries in P.E. classes
C. the equipment for P.E. classes must be improved in all schools.
D. P.E. teachers should give students more freedom in their classes
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。美国学生在体育课上发生意外伤害的情况增加了。原因有很多：校医数量少，班容量大，一些危险的运动的形式的增加，学生活动空间不够，体育老师的相关培训不够都有责任。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。 根据文章的主要内容，尤其第二段的“However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in P.E. classes.然而，一项调查表明，体育课上意外伤害的数量在增加”以及其后分段分析美国学生在体育课上发生意外伤害的情况增加的原因，可知，本文主要讲述为什么体育课上意外伤害会增加。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.没有校医的学校更有可能把受伤的孩子送往医院”可知，学校的医护人员少，所以不得不把受伤的孩子送到医院，如果学校里有校医，那这种情况就会缓解。由此推知，现在美国的学校需要更多的校医。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的 “However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in P.E. classes.然而，一项调查表明体育课上意外伤害的数量在增加”可知，对于美国学生来说，现在体育课变得更加危险了，因为体育课上的意外伤害数量在增加。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段的“She also says not all states require P.E. teachers to be specially trained. Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.她也指出，并非所有州都要求体育老师经过专业训练。未受训练的老师更不容易意识到不安全的情况”和第六段的“This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.这告诉她，有些老师并没给每个学生足够的安全空间进行锻炼”可知，有一些体育老师没有经过专业的培训，给学生的活动空间不够等导致学生受伤，这些和体育老师有关。即， Cheryl Richardson认为老师要对体育课的意外伤害负大部分责任。故选B。
D
How clever can a computer be Maybe you can get the answer after reading the following passage about a newly-developed US computer program called SmarterChild.
If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can remember many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows everybaseball player in every team this season and the weather in every city across the US.He also knows every word in the dictionary. However, if you ask Smarter Child other private questions, you will get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns, “I’ll be older than you after further study!”, and asking where he lives, you will get, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”
Smarter Child uses the huge information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for example, Smarter Child goes towww.ahdictionary.com. For the weather, he visits www.. He turns to www.the- for scientists and www. for a fantastic movie.
Some scientists believe that by joining many systems of the Internet, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the combined (结合) knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, Smarter Child has difficulty in discerning whether a behavior is right or wrong, which is obvious to any young child. If he wants to think and learn without any help from the programmers like boy-computer David in the movie Artificial Intelligence (AI), he must solve two problems.
The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files aresorted in different ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where tolook for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it byhimself. Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information moreexactly and faster than any human, he needs programmers to make better systems thatallow machines to solve problems of common sense, which is a huge challenge.
12. What may be unknown to Smarter Child
A. A word in the dictionary. B. The weather in New York.
C. personal information D. A player’s name of the Boston Redsox.
13. Which website can Smarter Child visit to answer the spelling questions
A. www. B. www.
C. www.the- D. www.ahdictionary.com
14. What does the underlined word“discerning”in paragraph 4 mean
A. Preventing、 B. Copying. C. Inventing. D. Telling
15. How is boy-computer David diffeIent from Smarter Child
A. He has a huge memory. B. He can think and learn independently.
C. He can make a weather forecast. D. He deals with information fast.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要Smarter Child这款新开发的电脑程序，详细解释了其工作原理、能力、局限以及面临的挑战。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“However, if you ask Smarter Child other private questions, you will get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns, “I’ll be older than you after further study!”, and asking where he lives, you will get, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”(然而，如果你问Smarter Child其他私人问题，你会得到奇怪的答案。一个关于Smarter Child年龄的问题又回来了，“再深造我就比你大了！”，然后问他住在哪里，你会得到：“在加州一栋高科技大楼的一间洁净房间里。”)”可知，对于一些个人信息，Smarter Child并不知道答案。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“To answer questions about spelling, for example, Smarter Child goes towww.ahdictionary.com.(例如，回答有关拼写的问题，Smarter Child 会求助www.ahdictionary.com。)”可知，Smarter Child可以访问www.ahdictionary.com来回答拼写问题。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词前“Smarter Child has difficulty”和其后的“whether a behavior is right or wrong(一种行为是对还是错)”以及下文“which is obvious to any young child.(这对任何一个年幼的孩子来说都是显而易见的。)”可推测，聪明的孩子很难辨别一种行为是对还是错，划线单词的意思和“分辨”相似。选项A“Preventing(预防)”；选项B“Copying (复制)”；选项C“Inventing (发明)”；选项D“Telling (辨别)”。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“If he wants to think and learn without any help from the programmers like boy-computer David in the movie Artificial Intelligence (AI), he must solve two problems.(如果他想在没有程序员帮助的情况下思考和学习，就像电影《人工智能》(AI)中的男孩电脑大卫一样，他必须解决两个问题。)”可推测出，David能够独立思考和学习，而Smarter Child在这方面有所欠缺，需要依赖程序员。因此，男孩电脑David与Smarter Child的不同之处在于他能够独立思考和学习。故选B。

【16题详解】
根据上文“As is known to all, true beauty comes from within, but sometimes it’s not easy to know how to explain it.( 众所周知，真正的美来自内心，但有时要知道如何解释它并不容易)”可知，上文提到了内在美，后文主要介绍了了解内在美的方法，故E选项“以下这四个方面有助于你了解内在美”符合语境，故选E。
【17题详解】
根据后文“Honesty is real inner beauty. While no one is perfect, inner beauty will show itself in the repeated choices a person makes.(诚实是真正的内在美。虽然没有人是完美的，但内心的美会在一个人反复做出的选择中显现出来)”可知，后文提到了诚实是真正的内在美，故C选项“诚恳之心造就明智之选”符合语境，故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了春节和春节的庆祝。
【36题详解】
考查考查动词-ed形式作定语的用法。句意：中国新年的庆祝活动，也被称为中国春节，诞生于恐惧和神话。分析句子可知，设空处作后置定语，修饰名词Chinese New Year，且逻辑主语Chinese New Year与动词call之间为被动关系。故填called。
【37题详解】
考查关系代词。句意：传说每年年底都会出现野兽“年”，攻击村民。分析句子可知，设空处引导定语从句，指代名词Nian，且在从句中作主语。故填that/which。
【38题详解】
考查动词-ing形式作状语的用法。句意：传说每年年底都会出现野兽“年”，攻击村民。分析句子可知，设空处作状语，且逻辑主语Nian与动词attack之间为主动关系。故填attacking。
【39题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：巨大的噪音和明亮的灯光被用来吓跑野兽，中国的新年庆祝活动由此诞生。分析句子可知，这里考查be used to do sth表“被用来做某事”，为固定搭配。故填to frighten。
【40题详解】
考查一般现在时被动语态。句意：现今，中国春节放假一周。根据语境和上文中的Today可知，此处描述客观事实，用一般现在时；又因句子主语the Spring Festival与动词celebrate之间在逻辑上为被动关系。故填is celebrated 。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意：通常，一家人会聚集在指定的亲戚家里吃晚饭，但如今，越来越多的家庭选择在餐馆里吃年夜饭。分析句子可知，设空处作状语，修饰后面的整个句子，用副词，且句首时首字母应大写。故填Typically。

考查可数名词的复数。句意：通常，一家人会聚集在指定的亲戚家里吃晚饭，但如今，越来越多的家庭选择在餐馆里吃年夜饭。根据设空处前的these可知，此处填days。these days意为“目前，现在”。故填 days。
【43题详解】

【44题详解】
考查代词。句意：中国的新年是一个为期15天的庆祝活动，每天，许多家庭轮流在亲戚家里举行庆祝活动。分析句子可知，此处表达的是“他们的”亲戚，所以这里应用形容词性物主代词。故填their。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意：庆祝活动是一整天的，有时，一家人会为亲戚做两顿饭，一顿在午餐，另一顿在晚餐。根据设空处前的a family ends up cooking two meals for relatives可知，once at lunch和once at dinner是并列关系，而非选择关系。故填and。

任务型阅读
It was summer, and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Uncle Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm, “he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze (吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper, “Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven (编织的) blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.

To my relief, it stopped slowly. But before we jumped off the horses, we found that we had been off the beaten track and got lost. (81 words)

It was then that my mind raced. “Listen, Dad, the rushing river water,” I shouted excitedly, “we can return to the farm house down the river.” Before long, we caught sight of the lights in the distance. We knew we were safe. What a thrilling vacation, like never before, we had! (93 words)
