18、re walk away from your college. Kings Art CentreA day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere.

21、o a place for wildlife-enthusiasts. Look for grass snakes in the lake. A snake called Hissing Sid is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun. 6Byrons Pool Many stories surround Lord Byrons time as a student of Cambridge University. Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was
22、 a place of “mess and drunkenness”. However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough. Im not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms. He spent a great deal of time walking in the village. It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in th
23、e lake, which is now known as Byrons Pool. A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields. The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the villa
24、ge for afternoon tea. If you dont trust me, then perhaps youll take it from Virginia Woolf over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool. 36.

27、lourful life in the countryside. D. Unknown stories of Cambridge University.BGrey clouds move as low as smoke over the treetops at Lolo Pass. The ground is white. The day is June 10. It has been snowing for the past four days in the Bitterroot Mountains. Wayne Fairchild is getting worried about our
28、trek over the Lolo Trail 95 miles from Lolo Montana to Weippe in Idaho, across the roughest country in the West. Lewis and Clark were nearly defeated 200 years ago by snowstorms on the Lolo. Today Fairchild is nervously checking the weather reports. He has agreed to take me across the toughest, midd
29、le section of the trail.When Lewis climbed on top of Lemhi Pass, 140 miles south of Missoula, on August 12, 1805, he was astonished by what was in front of him; “high mountain chains still to the West of us with their tops partially covered with snow.” Nobody in what was then the US knew the Rocky M
30、ountains existed, with peaks twice as high as anything in the Appalachians back East.Today their pathway through those mountains holds more attraction than any other ground over which they traveled, for its raw wilderness is an evidence to the character of two cultures: the explorers who braved its
31、hardships and the Native Americans who prize and conserve the path as a sacred (神圣的) gift. It remains today the same condition as when Lewis and Clark walked it.The Lolo is passable only from July to mid-September. Our luck is holding with the weather, although the snow keeps getting deeper. As we 8
32、climb to Indian Post Office, the highest point on the trail at 7,033 ft, we have covered 13 miles in soft snow, and we hardly have enough energy to make dinner. After a meal of chicken, I sit on a rock on top of the ridge(山脊). There is no light visible in any direction, not even another campfire. Fo
33、r four days we do not see another human being. We are occupied with the things that mix fear with joy. In our imagination we have finally caught up with Lewis and Clark.41. According to the passage, the word “trek” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to_.A. a comfortable walk in a separate country
34、B. a pleasant journey across the countrysideC. a journey over untraveled pathways D. a long, hard journey over rough areas42. We learn from the text that before 1805 .A. the Rocky Mountains were wholly covered with snowB. there were no people living in the western part of AmericaC. no Americans knew
35、 of the existence of the Rocky MountainsD. the Appalachians were the western frontier of the United States43.

36、mber of tourists to visit44. Judging from the text, Lewis and Clark were most probably_.A. two native Indians B. explorers of the early 19th centuryC. merchants who did business with the IndiansD. travelers whose curiosity took them over the Lolo Pass45.

37、 the Lolo Pass the author_.9A. was attempting the impossible B. was trying to set a world recordC. was following the trail of Lewis and Clark D. was fighting with weather and taking unnecessary risksCTheres a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble In The World. Marley un
38、derstood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too thats why it made Nov 16 “International Day for Tolerance”. But first of all, what is tolerance? French philosopher Voltaire (16941778) can give us some h
39、elp. According to him, tolerance “is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each others folly that is the first law of nature.”Nobodys perfect. When were tempted to criticize another person, we should perhaps remember our own imperfections first.Very
40、often, people dont realize that theyre intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UNs campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men dont put themselves in the shoes of w
41、omen.Its worth thinking a little about the words “tolerance” and “intolerance”. Are they the best words to describe the evils of which were speaking here? To agree to be “tolerant” of someone isnt necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that theres something wrong
42、with them.But it seems wrong that people should agree to “tolerate” people with black skin, for example. And should women think they have received the respect they are due when men agree to “tolerate” them?Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this 10weakness is something t
43、hat we all share. Thats the reason we should be tolerant.Its a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness. Bob Marley understood this. In the song mentioned above, he advised: “All you got to do: give a little”. Or, as this older piece of wisdo
44、m says: “Write your love on a rock so it stays for eternity; write your hate in the sand so the waves will wash it away”.46.

48、to show tolerance.DDont we all know a “Happy Meal” when we see one the famous boxed meal that includes a hamburger, kid-sized French fries, fruits and milk, served with a toy thats extremely popular with children who love to collect them?A Happy Meal is a form of kids meal sold at a certain fast-foo
49、d chain since 1979. A toy is included in the meal, both of which are usually contained in a box or paper bag. However, collectors of these little toys will not get them any longer, since the company will replace toys with books and each of these books will mainly pass on nutritional messages.Happy Meals are extremely popular with kids, especially
