AThere are many places to go on safari in Africa, but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Oavango Delta must ran as one of the world's most eciting wildlife journeys.Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to eplore deep into the delta. The camps have ecellent horses, professional guides and lots of support worers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding eperience.The morning ride, when the guides tae you to beautiful, shallow laes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlie any other riding eperience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly eciting. You are very liely to come across large wild animals, too. On horsebac it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of ecitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drin. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust iced up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.Bac at the camp you can ic off your boots and enjoy ecellent food and wine. Looing bac on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horsebac Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.21.

Maing classificationsD. Giving eamplesBThe other morning on the subway I sat net to an attractive young blonde woman who was reading something on her iPad. She was very well-dressed, carrying a Prada bag with tastefully applied mae-up indeed, she had an unmistaable air of wealth, material success and even authority. I suspected she wored as a highly-paid Wall Street lawyer or stocbroer or something of that sort. So, I was curious to see what she was so focused on. The Wall Street Journal perhaps? The Economist?Quite the contrary; rather, she was concentrating on a romance novel. Then I realied that I have nown many women who love romance novels—smart, attractive, successful, “liberated,” modem females who nonetheless find some ind of deep satisfaction and thrill from those hyper-romantic, artificial and etremely unrealistic tales of handsome, manly heroes falling in love with virginal women, enduring a series of adventures, then no doubt having a happy ending.These romance stories are to literature what hot dogs are to fine food. Yet, the genre(体裁) remains enormously popular. Consider some of these surprising statistics from the good fols at the Romance Writers of America (RWA)*More than 9,000 romance titles were released last year, with sales of about $1.44 billion (more than triple the revenues generated by classic literary fiction).*More than 90 percent of the maret are women (oay, that’s not at all surprising).* Readers are typically women between the ages 30 and 54 who are themselves involved in a romantic relationship (betraying the stereotype that only lonely women long for these tales of love and adventure).*Almost 40 percent of romance boo consumers have an annual income of between $50,000 and $99,900 (placing them firmly in the middle class).I had thought that romance novels accounted for a very small share of the literary maret, so I was quite surprised that this part has such enormous popularity. But I must wonder why so many women—forty years after the women’s liberation movement continue to indulge in the fanciful tales?I’m not sure if it represents a ind of “rejection” of the women’s liberation movement, but clearly something is missing in the lives of contemporary ladies. A romance author named Donna Hatch who focuses on the Regency period (early 19th century Britain) eplained the appeal of such bo os this way “Regency men were civilied and treated women with courtesy. When a lady entered the room, gentlemen stood, doffed their hats, offered an arm, bowed, and a hundred other little things I wish men still did today. But they were also very athletic; they hunted, raced, boed, rode horses. They were manly. Strong. Noble. Honorable. And that is why I love them!”Mrs. Hatch may have epressed the secret desires and attitudes of untold millions of her peers---that is, in the early 21st century, have women grown tired of the burdens and epectations that the “freedoms” they have gained give them? Is this a rejection of modem feminism? Do women long for days of old when men were masculine gentlemen and women were feminine and protected as precious treasures and regarded as possessions?Perhaps most women (even the ones who get lost in romance novels) do not want to goall the way bac but it is obvious, .24. What is the function of the opening paragraph?A. To summarie the whole passage.B. To prove the author’s argument.C. To lead in the main topic of the passage.D. To raise problems that will be solved later.25. What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?A. Romance novels are satisfying and thrilling.B. Romance novels are not of much “nutrition”.C. Romance novels are as popular as hot dogs.D. Romance novels are an essential part of contemporary life.26. In the author’s opinion, what is missing in the lives of contemporary women?A. Authority.B. Dignity.C. Liberty.D. Care.27. Which sentence can be put in the blan in the last paragraph?A. they prefer tales of innocent romance to classicsB. they are unhappy with how the world has turned outC. true love described in romance novels does eist in realityD. romance novels provide them with an access to societyCA man waled into a small Irish pub and ordered three beers.

We have made an agreement, that every time we go to pub each of us will order etra two beers and it will help eeping up the family bond ”.Soon all the town have heard about the man’s answer and lied it a lot.
