39;Heng in Chinese, recorded his observations of the tidal bore of Qiantang River like this: “The tide flows and ebbs with the wax and wane of the moon”. In ancient China, it was a common practice among men of letters not only to read widely but also to travel extensively. In the course of their travels, many of them had visited lots of famous mountains and magnificent rivers, but they had seen few sights that had impressed them as deeply as the tidal bore of Qiantang. Wielding their inspired pens, some of them had described the spectacular sight of the tidal bore. Poet Li Kuo of the Tang Dynasty(618—907)had these lines:
The bright mid-autumn moon casts its light on a thousand miles of land,
The thunderous bore at midnight loud as a million marching men.

20.[单选题] Professional travelers are similar to business travelers in many ways, although this type of travel is more elastic than business travel. Professional travel is built around the meeting and convention markets. These markets have grown as transportation, especially by air, has become more available and affordable. As professional travel continues to grow, new and expanded meeting and convention facilities have been developed to satisfy this increasing demand. Along with this growth, new management challenges have arisen to serve this specialized market. Some of the key market segments for meeting participants or attendees are associations, businesses, exhibitions and trade shows, religious organizations, political parties, and governments.
Many futurists have also predicted a decline in business and professional travel with the introduction of teleconferencing. However, people continue to have a strong desire to meet each other face-to-face. Although teleconferencing serves to introduce people to each other electronically, they will eventually want to meet in person to interact and network. This need for personal contact and interaction has allowed the business travel market to grow even in the face of advancing technology.
In response to the needs of the business travel segment, tourism service suppliers have offered a wide array of services and benefits. Airlines instituted frequent-flier programs and service upgrades including business class and provided corporate pricing, discounts and rebates, travel lounges, and preferred check-ins. Amtrak developed club service with reserved seating, snack and beverage service, telephones, and conference rooms on some trains. Car rental companies, following the lead of airlines, established frequent-renter programs, which provided corporate pricing, discounts, rebates, upgrades, and special check-in procedures. Hotels and other lodging properties have provided similar benefits to business travelers including corporate pricing, discounts, and rebates; special floors and sections including business centers, frequent stay programs, and upgrades.

21.[单选题] Earthquakes may rightly be ranked as one of the most devastating forces known to man: since records began to be written down, it has been estimated that earthquake-related fatalities have numbered in the millions, and that earthquake-related destruction has been beyond calculation. The greater part of such damage and loss of life has been due to collapse of buildings and the effects of rockslides, floods, fire, disease, tsunamis (gigantic sea waves), and other phenomena resulting from earthquakes, rather than from the quakes themselves.
The great majority of all earthquakes occur in two specific geographic areas. One such area encompasses the Pacific Ocean and its contiguous land masses. The other extends from the East Indies to the Atlas Mountains, including the Himalayas, Iran Turkey, and the Alpine regions. It is in these two great belts or zones that ninety percent of all earthquakes take place: they may, however, happen anywhere at any time.
This element of the unknown has for centuries added greatly to the dread and horror surrounding earthquakes, but in recent times there have been indications the earthquake prediction may be possible. By analyzing changes in animal behavior, patterns of movements in the earth’s crust, variations in the force of gravity and the earth’s magnetic field, and the frequency with which minor earth tremors are observed, scientists have shown increasing success in anticipating when and where earthquakes will strike. As a result, a worldwide earthquake warning network is already in operation and has helped to prepare for (and thus lessen) the vast destruction that might otherwise have been totally unexpected.
It is doubtful that man will ever be able to control earthquakes and eliminate their destructiveness altogether, but as how and why earthquakes happen become better understood, man will become more and more able to deal with their potential devastation before it occurs.
A.Earthquakes are highly feared but actually relatively harmless.
B.There is absolutely no way to predict when or where earthquakes might occur.
C.Man is now able to predict when earthquakes will happen but not where.
D.Man is now able to predict where earthquakes will happen but not when
E.the two great earthquake zones
F.the fact that earthquakes can happen at any time or place
G.the percentage of earthquakes
H.the exact cause of earthquakes
I.Changes in animal behavior.
J.Differences in the earth’s magnetic field and force of gravity.
BA.How often minor earth tremors have been observed.
BB.All of the above.
BC.to amuse and entertain
BD.to question and criticize
BE.to explain and inform
BF.to correct a misconception
BG.It will never be possible to predict earthquakes.
BH.Earthquakes can already be predicted with great accuracy.
BI.There is really no need to try to predict earthquake occurrences.
BJ.Earthquake prediction is becoming more and more possible.
22.[单选题] The 1,000-Island Lake, which was formed by damming the Xinan River Reservoir, and the Xinan and Fuchun rivers in west Zhejiang Province have become known as the Golden Tourist Belt. Beautiful scenery, historical sites, and participation in traditional life are all part of the package. Strange caves, 1,000 islands and islets, and colorful sites are scattered like stars in the sky.
Traveling eastward along the route from the Huangshan Mountain will bring tourists to Hangzhou. From there, a five-hour coach and boat trip takes travelers to Pailing Town, Chunan County in the center of the 1,000-Island Lake. On the Huolo (Furnace) Peak of Pailing Ridge, the highest of the ridges, is an ideal spot for an aerial view of the mountain and the lake where tourists can row boats to all the islands. From the Pailing Ridge, tourists can go to Jiande by coach along the river bank and through the Jian River tunnel. This is known as the “cool world” for the pleasantly cool temperature of the rivers, lakes and mountain caves. “Xinan mist illusion” is a peculiar sight rarely seen in China. The water of the Xinan River maintains 14-18 degrees C in temperature all year round. Each winter and summer, because of the great temperature difference between air and water, mist forms on the 20-km river surface on the lower reaches of the hydropower station. Blown by wind, the mist transforms itself into endless sights.
From Jiande, tourists can go by boat to the ancient town of Meicheng. Meicheng, with a history of more than 1,700 years, is where the Twin Pagodas shrouded in clouds and other famous sights are located.
Boating eastward with the current from Meicheng, tourists will eventually arrive at the Fuchun River basin area. Here they can appreciate various sights along the Qililong section of the river where the water surface narrows and steep cliffs flank both banks. The winding river course, dangerous shoals and deep pools are known as the “Lesser Three Gorges.”
Tianmu Stream is one of the Fuchun River system. The water is so clear, the bottom of the stream is visible. Tourists can drift on rubber rafts the 5-kim distance from Yaolin Bridge to Yuanchuan Wharf. Xinshan is an islet in the Fuchun River. This is where the Happy Farmer Household folklore tour is held. By way of bamboo rafts and ox carts, tourists can visit and take part in such traditional activities as operating traditional farm tools and making flour with a stone grinder. They can also create hand-made paper, make straw sandals, reel silk, and watch goat fights.
A.Xinan River
B.Fuchun River
C.the 1000-Island Lake
D.Mt. Huangshan

J.the changes of the daily weather patterns in summer
BA.the difference of temperature between air and water
BB.the difference of distances between islands and banks
BC.to drift on rubber rafts
BD.to boat with the current
BE.to make flour with grinders
BF.to ride through narrow tunnels
BG.curving rivers
BH.deep pools
BI.steep cliffs
BJ.rapid current
23.[单选题] The climate of the west coast is the most moderate in Canada. Summers are cool and fairly dry and winters are mild, cloudy and wet. Even in mid-winter, average temperatures are usually above freezing.
The central plain from the Rocky Mountains to the Great Lakes is characterized by cold winters, short but hot summers, and light precipitation.
The large water-surfaces of Central and Eastern Canada produce considerable modification in the climate. Southern Ontario and Quebec experience cold, damp winters and hot, humid summers.
Most of Atlantic Canada has a humid climate owing to its maritime character. Nevertheless, it experiences weather-systems arriving from the dry continental interior as well as from the sea. The combined influence of these systems creates some of the most variable day-to-day weather conditions to be encountered anywhere in Canada.
The north-central part of Canada is usually snow-covered for more than half the year, with a frostfree period of barely two months. Precipitation is relatively light. Further north, on the islands along the Arctic coast and round Hudson Bay, tundra conditions obtain. Average temperatures stay above freezing for only a few weeks of the year. The Arctic Islands and the northern fringe of the mainland do not have a summer season of the kind known is Southern Canada.
A.The west coast
B.The Arctic coast
C.The east coast.
D.The central plain
E.The-month frost.
F.Modification.
G.Humidity
H.No summer.
I.the central part of Canada
J.Hudson Bay
BA.southern Ontario and Quebec
BB.the Pacific coast
BC.cold and dry
BD.humidity and heat
BE.light precipitation
BF.variation
BG.The temperatures in the west side of the Rocky Mountains are usually above zero.
BH.It’s hot and dry in the summer of Southern Ontario and Quebec.
BI.There is no summer in the northern islands along the Arctic coast.
BJ.The north-central part is covered with snow for more than six months.
24.[单选题] People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their picture taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year is in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean (地中海) has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacations. They all come for the same reason: sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy& |
