2、Tanzania Tarangire is a national Park which lies in Tanzania．The park itself covers an area of around 2,850 square kilometers, making it the sixth largest park of its kind in the country．I recently visited Tarangire to see what it was like．
One of the first sightings upon entering the park which I found was a
huge group of elephants．Our guide told us that Tagrangire was probably
the best place in Tanzania to find large group of elephants, and that their
population in the park was around 2,500．We continued to watch the
elephants as they stood under trees and scratched themselves against the
trees to hit the spot of an itch.
To the right of the elephant group, we noticed a big tree! Our guide informed us that this was a Baobab tree and that they could live for hundreds of years．Compared with this tree, the elephant just looked like dwarfs (much smaller plants or animals)! We were informed that Tarangire was one of the best National Parks in Africa to see so many Baobab trees．
As we continued our drive through the park, we finally reached a watering hole．Our guide warned us that there were lions all around us．It took us all a while to find them, but there they were! Most of them are resting in the shade under bushes, but there was one that was drinking from the watering hole directly in front of us．We then noticed just to our right, there were a couple of fresh zebra bodies — it seemed as if the lions which were resting had killed them! We were unlucky not to have seen the kill, as our guide had mentioned that the zebra bodies were fresh and the kill had happened within the last hour．
Our final big sighting was one that none of us were expecting to see, even our guide! We stopped at a place where there were quite a many cars, with a sleeping leopard（美洲豹）there! We took photos and watched its surprising body before returning to our hotel as it was getting late．
So, I hope you enjoyed my description of Tarangire, and add this amazing park to your very own Tanzania travel route．（401）

3、“USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?”We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world.
It’s true that studying abroad can help studen ts develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs.
But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.
Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.
Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it? We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice.

4、 Imagine the situation. You are driving along in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device（装置）which uses satellites to fi nd the user’s position. It can find your position to within 20 meters. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System（全球定位系统）, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in you pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. the second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate（精确的）. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
( ) 1.According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people _________.
A. can’t be lost in a new city
B. can’t find their way in different counties
C. can learn about the culture of an unknown place
D. can spend the least time getting to another place
( ) 2.We can learn from the passage that ___________.
A. there are three parts to the GPS
B. a GPS can’t be put into a watch
C. a GPS can help you start your car
D. the GPS are becoming more and more expensive
( ) 3. The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “__________”.
A. Receivers
B. GPS devices
C. Satellites
D. Ground stations
( ) 4. The passage is mainly about ____________.
A. The history of the GPS
B. the introduction of GPS
C. the shape of the GPS
D. the three parts of the GPS
( ) 5. What can we infer（推断）from the passage?

7、"The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence. "That's an old saying in English. It means other places often look better, more interesting than the place where you live. Some people worry that young Ch inese are beginning to feel that way. They see young Chinese ignoring Chinese culture and, instead, buying Japanese cartoon books, watching Korean soap operas and even celebrating Western holidays.
Foreign books and soap operas are good, but Chinese writers and actors are just as good. As for holidays, Christmas is nice, but it can never have the meaning for Chinese that Spring Festival has, and the West has nothing to compare with Mid-Autumn Festival. And let's not forget the part of Chinese culture I like best: its friendliness. Not all countries are as warm as China.
It's good to enjoy other cultures and to learn from them, but they cannot replace your own culture. It's good to look on the other side of the fence, but make sure you take a good long look. You will find that the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the fence.
判断正误；正确写T 错误写F
( ) 1.The Spring Festival is more meaningful for Chinese people.
( ) 2.The saying means the place where you live looks better than other places.
( ) 3.Foreign culture can't replace Chinese culture.
( ) 4.Some people worry that young Chinese ignore Chinese culture.
( ) 5. This passage mentioned three Chinese festivals.

Golden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan，Gansu，Shanxi province and Shennongjia mountainous area of Hubei Province．Golden monkeys have golden—orange fur．They move around in the daytime，usually in groups of as many as l00 to 200 heads，or 20 to 30 heads．They feed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos．But people are destroying the environment where they live．Trees and bamboos are disappearin9，so golden monkeys have less and less to eat．

9、Can you remember a world before the Internet? If you answer is “no” then you are probably a millennial．Millennials are the new generation of young Americans．They were born between l982 and l992．There are 33 million of them，and they are just starting to enter the workforce（劳动力）．Many experts believe that millennials are different from young Americans of past generations．They also believe that millenials will change the workforce in important ways．

Millennials also grew up with a lot of structure in their lives．Many of them went to school from the age of two or three and played on sports teams．At work，they will expect the rules to be clear．They will also expect a strong but fair boss，like a coach on a sports team．They will follow the person in charge（主管）if he or she is fair．But they will not follow an unfair boss．They will also expect their work to be fun and creative，similar to their experience on a sports team．
