Module 5 A Trip Along the Three Gorges
培优练习
一、短文改错。
As tour guide, I’m glad to tell you that more and more tourists are paying attentions to environmental protection. Several years before, in one place of interest I saw rubbish throwing away everywhere, such as waste paper and plastic bags. However, some tourists climbed trees or picked up flowers. Some even scared or catch little animals. What’s more, some of them made a fire to cook, which might cause a forest fire. Recently great changes had taken place. Most tourists take rubbish away with them while they leave. They no longer hurt little animals. Trees and flowers are well taken care of. In the forest, smokers give up smoking so as not to start a fire. Now, I sing high praise for so good deeds.

One summer in college, I was invited to be an instructor at a high school leader-ship camp.

I was instructed to care more about campers who might feel 5 . So I 6 him and said, “Hi, I’m Kevin. It’s nice to meet you. How are you?”?
7 a shaky voice he 8 answered, “OK, I guess.”?
I calmly asked him to join in the activities and 9 some new people. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.”?

The next day, I was leading camp songs for the campers. They eagerly participated. But the boy was just sitting alone, 14 out of the window.?
That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my 15 about him known. I asked them to pay special attention and spend time with him 16 they could.?
The days flew by fast. When the “last dance” came, surprisingly, the boy from under the tree was now a shirtless dancing 17 . He owned the dance floor 18 meaningful time with others. I couldn’t believe it was him.?
In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of 19 every day. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tell this story as 20 as I can, and I advise others to look out for their own “boy under the tree”.?

三、阅读理解。
While travelling, you'll be taking money, license or passport. Or you will buy something expensive to take back home with you and you don't want it to get stolen. Here are some ideas on how to keep your valuables (贵重物品) safe while traveling.
Plan ahead of time
Think of what you really need and don't need to take on your trip. Only take the valuables that you must have, not just ones that you would like to have.
Carry your valuables on your person
Something that is small, like cash and credit cards and your passport, can be carried in a money
wallet around your neck or in a money belt. This way, your valuables are hidden and right next to you, where you know where they are at all times. Wear clothing that can hide the money belt.
Carry larger valuables in your carry-on bag.
If you can't fit it in your money wallet like some large valuables, you'd better put them somewhere that you will keep touch with them. You can put them on the plane, so you don't have to worry about the airline losing your bag or someone stealing it from the belt after the flight before you get to it.
Choose a hotel that has the front desk for valuables.
This way, you don't have to worry about housekeeping getting hold of your valuables, or someone stealing your valuables if your room is broken into. If you give the valuables to the front desk to keep for you, choose a time when others are not looking.
1. The passage is mainly about ________.
A. what to do while travelling
B. how to carry your valuables on your person
C. how to keep your valuables safe while traveling

B. you take valuables as many as possible
C. you take valuables that you would like to have
D. you take valuables that you have at home

三、阅读理解。
There is no better way to enjoy Scottish traditions than going fishing and tasting a little bit of whisky(威士忌) at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle. When Queen Victoria visited the castle in 1873, she wrote in her diary, “I never saw a lovelier spot.”
Scotland is not easily defined. In certain moments, this quiet land of lakes and grass and mountains changes before your very eyes. When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange light, the rivers, teeming with fish, can turn into streams of gold. As you settle down with just a fishing pole and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle, any frustration(烦恼) will float away as gently as the circling water. It’s just you and purple, pink, white flowers, seeking a perfect harmony. If you are a new comer to fishing, learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetime's fun. For many, fishing is more than a sport; it is an art.
Scotland offers interesting places where you can rest after a long day's fishing. Set against a wild mountain and hidden behind woodland, the beautiful Inverlochy Castle Hotel below the Nevis is a perfect place to see the beauty of Scotland's mountains. Ben Nevis is the highest of all British mountains, and reaching its 1,345-metre top is a challenge. But it's not just what goes up matters; what comes down is unique. More than 900 metres high, on the mountain's north face, lies an all-important source of pure water. Its name comes from the Gaelic(盖尔特) language “usqueb” or “water of life”. And it is the single most important ingredient(原料) in Scotland's best-known drink: whisky.
1. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A. By making comparisons.
B. By following time order.
C. By analysing causes.
D. By giving descriptions.
2. What is Ben Nevis specially noted for?
A. The challenge up to its top.
B. The water from the mountain.
C. The beauty of its surroundings.
D. The Inverlochy Castle Hotel.
3.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce Scottish traditions to tourists.
B. To describe the pleasures of life in Scotland.
C. To show the attractions of Scotland to readers.
D. To explore geographical characteristics of Scotland.
4.What does the story of Queen Victoria show?
A. The Queen is rich in tour experience.
B. The year of 1873 is special for the Queen.
C. Tasting whisky is better than going fishing.
D. The castle's a good place to go in Scotland.
