(2025·重庆一中高二期末)In October 2024, 3-year-old Journey Castillo completed a quest to visit all 63 of America’s national parks.Her parents, Eric and Valerie Castillo, said she is likely the youngest person to reach that milestone.
The family, from San Antonio, Texas, ended their travels with a trip to Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska.“Mission complete,” they wrote on Instagram.“After three years of adventure, countless logistics work and not giving up, we could not be more proud to share the conclusion of our quest.” Journey hasn’t been officially verified as the youngest traveler to visit all 63 parks.But more important than the title, her parents say, is the experience.
“Our thing was: ‘Let’s ... inspire in Journey a passion for nature, inspire in her that she can handle the strenuous parts of the traveling: the environments, the weather changes, different cultures.’” Valerie Castillo told The Guardian’s Ramon Antonio Vargas.
Before she could walk, Journey Castillo’s parents set out to visit every national park in the U.S.They hiked up Pikes Peak and explored Rocky Mountain National Park, all with an infant in tow.As far as they could tell, Journey seemed to enjoy herself.
“We could see her little eyes open and take it all in,” Valerie Castillo told the San Antonio Express-News last year.“She was so aware, even being a few days old.She’s adapted so well.”
They then ventured to Grand Canyon National Park — and decided to keep going.They set a goal of visiting 21 parks by Journey’s first birthday, then 42 parks by her second birthday.Eventually, they decided to go for all 63 parks.The family has been documenting every step of the way on Instagram and their website, Journey Go Explore.
Reaching the last few parks on their list — all in Alaska — required lots of logistical management, including renting flights, ferry rides, and even special permission from the National Park Service to visit a seasonally closed park.Though their visit was challenging at times, the Castillos say it helped their daughter develop confidence.Journey walks fearlessly through airports and happily greets park rangers.“When she’s out at these parks, she comes to life, and her personality brightens up,” Eric Castillo said.
24.Why did Journey Castillo’s parents take her to visit all America’s national parks?( )
A.To inspire others to be more active. B.To document their travels on Instagram.
C.To inspire a passion for nature in Journey. D.To break a record as the youngest traveler.
25.What does the underlined word “strenuous” probably mean in the third paragraph?( )
A.Identical. B.Appealing.
C.Mild. D.Challenging.
26.What did the parents perceive about Journey during their visits to national parks?( )
A.She was uninterested in the surroundings.
B.She adapted well and seemed to enjoy herself.
C.She preferred staying indoors with her parents.
D.She only enjoyed specific environments and attractions.
27.How did Eric Castillo describe Journey’s personality during those travels?( )
A.Shy and introverted. B.Reliable and anxious.
C.Fearful and splendid. D.Enthusiastic and confident.

The Disneyland parks are full of amusements, but they are also small cities that deal with deliveries, rubbish, and groups of visitors.People need to move from one place to another; they have to refuel and relax.To meet these requirements, the parks are well-equipped in reality.For example, Disneyland Park in California has a reliable transport system.In Walt Disney World in Florida, dustbins are spaced 30 feet apart, and all of them are emptied through underground tubes.
None of this happened by accident.Walt Disney first had his idea for a play land in 1937.He first imagined the park’s buildings in a small size.He spent years collecting ideas by visiting other places.He studied Beverly Park in Los Angeles, including rebuilt historic villages.He visited Colonial Williamsburg, where employees dressed up and walked around.Then he organised a team of engineers and designers to plan and build a small world he called Disneyland.Walt Disney had blueprints (蓝图) drawn up, and tried to get the permission to break ground (破土动工).
In 1953, he bought some land in Anaheim.Some designers thought it was too far, but Disney went ahead.It was like building a new city.Pipes had to be fixed.Railway track had to be laid around.Disney chose the hub-and-spoke (轴辐式的) street pattern that many cities have.“I want Disneyland to be a place where you can’t get lost,” he said.Designers and architects also diagrammed the rides and made models, while artists painted the background.
Finally in July 1955, the visitors came.If they picked up maps, they could see the results of years’ planning: the shops and restaurants, the square, and the streets.The magic city had finally jumped off the drawing board and come into real life.
28.What does the author want to show about Disneyland parks in paragraph 1?( )
A.The convenient environment. B.The amusing tourist attractions.
C.The differences between the parks. D.The visitors’ common requirements.
29.Why did Walt Disney travel to different places including Beverly Park?( )
A.To choose a place for construction. B.To advertise his Disneyland Park.
C.To experience American culture. D.To get inspiration for his park.
30.What kind of person is Walt Disney according to the passage?( )
A.Confident but selfish. B.Stubborn but kind-hearted.
C.Considerate and determined. D.Careful and hard-working.
31.What’s the best title for the text?( )
A.It Is Worthwhile to Build Large Parks
B.Disneyland Has Been Built like a Brand-new City
C.How a Theme Park Was Built in a Big City of USA
D.Disneyland — a Famous Park Around the World

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a small town,there was a community talent show held every year in the local park.The event was a highlight for many, with performances from various local talents.Among the audience was a woman named Emily, a kind-hearted local librarian, along with her 12-year-old daughter Anna.Both of their eyes were filled with excitement.
As the show began, Emily and her daughter watched a young girl in amazement, about eight, confidently sing a song.Her voice was surprisingly powerful for her small body.Then a group of teenagers followed.Their hip-hop dance routine was full of energy, leading to cheers from the crowd.There was even an elderly gentleman who performed a series of magic tricks.However, as the sun began to set, many in the audience grew tired and the applause (掌声) after each act became less enthusiastic (热情的).
Then came the turn of a young boy, around ten years old, nervously holding his violin.As he started playing, it was clear that he was a beginner.His notes were shaky and he missed a few beats.The audience, already tired, responded with only a little polite applause.Emily noticed the boy’s frustrated face as he finished his performance.
It was at this moment that Emily recalled a powerful memory from her own childhood—the time when she had stood on a similar stage, her voice trembling (颤抖) through a song.But the kindness she had received from a stranger in the audience pushed her to carry on.Drawing from the lesson she had learned from the past experience, Emily stood up, clapping loudly and cheering for the boy.“Great job! Keep practicing, and you’re doing wonderfully!”she called out.Her enthusiasm inspired other members of the audience to join in the applause, their claps growing louder and more sincere.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式作答。
Anna looked up at her mother, surprised by her actions.
Since that day, Anna has been carrying her mother’s lesson with her.

(Text 1)
W:I don’t understand how you got a ticket. I thought you were a careful driver.
M:I usually am, but I thought I could get through the crossing before the lights turned red. I was driving too fast so I hit a car.
(Text 2)
W:Can you tell me how much it costs to repair the TV set?
M:Well, the set is very old. It’ll cost about 100 pounds. However, a new one may cost you 120 pounds more or less. So it’s not worth repairing.
(Text 3)
W:How many people are they interviewing?
M:They interviewed sixteen the first time, and now four of us were chosen to go back for the second interview.
W:I hope it goes well. Good luck. I hope you can get the job.
(Text 4)
M:The guests are leaving for New York today on the 11 o’clock flight. It’s too late. So there will be no bus then. We need someone to get them to the airport on time.
W:I’d be happy to, but my car is under repair now.
M:In that case, we have to call a taxi.
(Text 5)
W:Mary and I are going to the concert. Do you want to come, too?
M:Sorry, but I’m meeting Jane. She’s writing an article and she has asked me to help collect materials for it.
W:An article? About what?
M:Oh, just old churches. Anyway, I’ll see her at the library at half past two.
(Text 6)
W:Sunshine Hotel, may I help you?
M:Yes, I’m phoning up because I have booked a room for an overseas visitor who won’t be able to come now and so I’ll have to cancel it, I’m afraid.
W:What is the name, please?
M:It was a double room booked in the name of Dr. R. Sun from January 14th, for a week.
W:Ah, yes, I’ve got it. And now you want to change the booking, do you?

M:Yes. My name is Ronald Schuller.
W:And may I ask who referred you to our office?
M:Uh, I drove past your office yesterday and I saw your number.
W:Okay. How about the day after tomorrow on Wednesday at 4 o’clock?
M:Uh. Do you happen to have an opening in the morning? I usually pick up my kids from school around that time.
W:Okay. How about Tuesday or Thursday at 8:00 am?
M:Can it be earlier, like 7:30?
W:No. I’m sorry.
M:Well, in that case, Thursday would be fine.
(Text 8)
W:Look! Here is the information about the evening courses.

M:OK, relax. Let’s see what else is there.
W:Photography. That looks interesting.
M:But look at the price. I don’t think I can afford it. Web design is pretty cheap. What do you think?
W:I don’t want to work on the computer in the evening.
M:Hey, look, how about Indian cooking? It starts this week. A little bit expensive.
W:You know how much I love Indian food. I’ll call them tomorrow to see if they want new students.
M:OK.
(Text 9)
W:Hey, Jack. Are you going to the party in town tonight?
M:No, I’d better stay at home.
W:Why? It is your favourite.
M:Well ... no.
W:Jack, are you yourself? What has happened? Are you having a fever?
M:Not really. It’s all because of my professor. We were asked to turn in a paper on Friday morning, but I haven’t started writing even a single word.
W:Why didn’t you write it?
M:I was very busy these days. I had been preparing for my English exam all the time, so I had no time.
W:Oh, come on. I think you should have a good rest. Let’s enjoy this free Wednesday night.
M:Anne, listen, I really can’t.
W:Are you serious?
M:Yes, you know it means a lot to me.
W:OK, I understand. I will go by myself. Could you lend me your car, please?
M:But you don’t have a driver’s license.
W:Who cares?
M:Well, well, Anne. I am going to drive you there and you can call a taxi when the party is over.
W:All right.
(Text 10)
M:What would your life be like if you were Albert Einstein? What clothes would be in your wardrobe if you were Madonna? Well now you can discover the answer to all these questions at the Fame Hotel in California.
When you enter the room, you enter the life of a famous person. The owner of the hotel has tried to fill the room with objects, clothes, even food that he thinks the stars would have liked. Madonna’s wardrobe is full of beautiful white dresses; Albert Einstein doesn’t have any socks in his wardrobe because he never wore them! I spoke to one guest staying in the Elvis Presley room. “I love this hotel,” he said to me. “I wanted to know what Elvis Presley would eat for breakfast and now I know.” That guest eats pancakes and strawberry ice cream every morning, just as Elvis liked to do. On the next table, the Einstein room’s guest is eating cabbage soup! The company plans to open another Fame Hotel in New York next year and there are plans to expand into Europe too. I look forward to staying in the Winston Churchill suite in London!

(2025·重庆一中高二期末)In October 2024, 3-year-old Journey Castillo completed a quest to visit all 63 of America’s national parks.Her parents, Eric and Valerie Castillo, said she is likely the youngest person to reach that milestone.
The family, from San Antonio, Texas, ended their travels with a trip to Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska.“Mission complete,” they wrote on Instagram.“After three years of adventure, countless logistics work and not giving up, we could not be more proud to share the conclusion of our quest.” Journey hasn’t been officially verified as the youngest traveler to visit all 63 parks.But more important than the title, her parents say, is the experience.
“Our thing was: ‘Let’s ... inspire in Journey a passion for nature, inspire in her that she can handle the strenuous parts of the traveling: the environments, the weather changes, different cultures.’” Valerie Castillo told The Guardian’s Ramon Antonio Vargas.
Before she could walk, Journey Castillo’s parents set out to visit every national park in the U.S.They hiked up Pikes Peak and explored Rocky Mountain National Park, all with an infant in tow.As far as they could tell, Journey seemed to enjoy herself.
“We could see her little eyes open and take it all in,” Valerie Castillo told the San Antonio Express-News last year.“She was so aware, even being a few days old.She’s adapted so well.”
They then ventured to Grand Canyon National Park — and decided to keep going.They set a goal of visiting 21 parks by Journey’s first birthday, then 42 parks by her second birthday.Eventually, they decided to go for all 63 parks.The family has been documenting every step of the way on Instagram and their website, Journey Go Explore.
Reaching the last few parks on their list — all in Alaska — required lots of logistical management, including renting flights, ferry rides, and even special permission from the National Park Service to visit a seasonally closed park.Though their visit was challenging at times, the Castillos say it helped their daughter develop confidence.Journey walks fearlessly through airports and happily greets park rangers.“When she’s out at these parks, she comes to life, and her personality brightens up,” Eric Castillo said.

The Disneyland parks are full of amusements, but they are also small cities that deal with deliveries, rubbish, and groups of visitors.People need to move from one place to another; they have to refuel and relax.To meet these requirements, the parks are well-equipped in reality.For example, Disneyland Park in California has a reliable transport system.In Walt Disney World in Florida, dustbins are spaced 30 feet apart, and all of them are emptied through underground tubes.
None of this happened by accident.Walt Disney first had his idea for a play land in 1937.He first imagined the park’s buildings in a small size.He spent years collecting ideas by visiting other places.He studied Beverly Park in Los Angeles, including rebuilt historic villages.He visited Colonial Williamsburg, where employees dressed up and walked around.Then he organised a team of engineers and designers to plan and build a small world he called Disneyland.Walt Disney had blueprints (蓝图) drawn up, and tried to get the permission to break ground (破土动工).
In 1953, he bought some land in Anaheim.Some designers thought it was too far, but Disney went ahead.It was like building a new city.Pipes had to be fixed.Railway track had to be laid around.Disney chose the hub-and-spoke (轴辐式的) street pattern that many cities have.“I want Disneyland to be a place where you can’t get lost,” he said.Designers and architects also diagrammed the rides and made models, while artists painted the background.
Finally in July 1955, the visitors came.If they picked up maps, they could see the results of years’ planning: the shops and restaurants, the square, and the streets.The magic city had finally jumped off the drawing board and come into real life.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a small town,there was a community talent show held every year in the local park.The event was a highlight for many, with performances from various local talents.Among the audience was a woman named Emily, a kind-hearted local librarian, along with her 12-year-old daughter Anna.Both of their eyes were filled with excitement.
As the show began, Emily and her daughter watched a young girl in amazement, about eight, confidently sing a song.Her voice was surprisingly powerful for her small body.Then a group of teenagers followed.Their hip-hop dance routine was full of energy, leading to cheers from the crowd.There was even an elderly gentleman who performed a series of magic tricks.However, as the sun began to set, many in the audience grew tired and the applause (掌声) after each act became less enthusiastic (热情的).
Then came the turn of a young boy, around ten years old, nervously holding his violin.As he started playing, it was clear that he was a beginner.His notes were shaky and he missed a few beats.The audience, already tired, responded with only a little polite applause.Emily noticed the boy’s frustrated face as he finished his performance.
It was at this moment that Emily recalled a powerful memory from her own childhood—the time when she had stood on a similar stage, her voice trembling (颤抖) through a song.But the kindness she had received from a stranger in the audience pushed her to carry on.Drawing from the lesson she had learned from the past experience, Emily stood up, clapping loudly and cheering for the boy.“Great job! Keep practicing, and you’re doing wonderfully!”she called out.Her enthusiasm inspired other members of the audience to join in the applause, their claps growing louder and more sincere.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式作答。
Anna looked up at her mother, surprised by her actions.
Since that day, Anna has been carrying her mother’s lesson with her.
参考范文:
Anna looked up at her mother, surprised by her actions.“Mom, why did you do that?”she asked curiously.Emily smiled and said that the boy was brave enough to share his talent with them.She thought it’s important to encourage and support each other, especially when someone is just starting out and that people can never know how much a simple act of kindness can mean to someone.Anna nodded thoughtfully, watching as the young violinist left the stage with a shy but proud smile.
Since that day, Anna has been carrying her mother’s lesson with her.She found herself looking at situations differently, seizing opportunities to offer support and kindness.In school, when classmates struggled or felt nervous, Anna was there with a word of encouragement, remembering her mother’s example at the talent show.She realized that these small acts of kindness didn’t just help others, and that they made herself feel good too.Anna hoped that just like her mother, she could be a source of initiative and encouragement in someone else’s life.
