[2016·山西四校联考]Driving on up to Yosemite with my family was exciting but nerve-racking (神经紧张的). I had never been to such an amazing national park before, yet I wasn't the most athletic person so I knew that I couldn't stick through all the hiking up and down. It actually ended up being a fun and adventurous experience.
The ride there was definitely long but worth it. As I woke up from my nap, I saw the beautiful scenery of the tall mountains and beautiful streams. The trails were made nicely for visitor. The waterfalls were breathtaking. Climbing up rocks was one of my favorite parts. Even though I fell a couple of times, I still have a lot of fun. The fact that my family and I spent so much time together all trying to find out which route to take and what views to watch really brought us closer together.
The great thing about nature is that, it's just you, the views, and the people around you. There's nothing there to bother you and it's the best way to relax and enjoy yourself. Yosemite has 5 of the worlD s highest waterfalls, and about 300 lakes. The structure of each mountain is incredible; it's formed in ways that almost take your breath away. Some of them are of a deep dark color with waterfalls forming; some are formed with spots of green peeking (窥探) out. It's definitely something you wouldn't want to miss.
Yosemite isn't the only great National Park but based on my experience I highly recommend going out and enjoying nature with family and friends. It's a great time to bond, laugh, and take in what Mother Nature offers.

[2016·山东济南模拟]The recent capsizing (倾覆) of Eastern Star,with 454 people on board, will not affect cruise (乘船游览) ship tourism in China in the long term,but may have an immediate fallout (附带影),an analyst says.
On June 1,the ship sank in the Yangtze River in Central ChinA s Hubei province, in the face of a fierce storm, killing all but 12 people aboard. According to Zhang Lingyun, the deputy dean of tourism college at Beijing Union University, the ship capsized owing “mainly to rare weather conditions”. “But the public needs time to put the tragedy behind, so there might be a shortterm fallout from it. ”
Ctrip, a major Chinese online travel agency, has received some requests from customers seeking to cancel their bookings on cruise ships after the incident. More than 50 tourists canceled their planned cruises, says Huang He, general manager of Xiyanghong Travel Agency in Suzhou in eastern ChinA s Jiangsu province. His company expects more people to withdraw (撤销) from such trips in the coming days. The Nanjing branch of Shanghai Xiehe Travel Agency, which organized the river excursion (游览) of the capsized Eastern Star, canceled its next cruise, which was to start on June 15. The private company said another trip, set for June 17,might also be canceled.
The cruise business in China is developing very fast as more Chinese take to this mode of luxury travel. Last year, more than 220 cruise ships set sail from Shanghai alone, with approximately 1.2 million passengers, according to the annual report on ChinA s cruise industry, prepared by Shanghai Center for International Cruise Economic Research, an industry body.
Most river cruise routes are between Hubei province's Yichang to Chongqing on the Yangtze River, says Chen Caiyin,public affairs manager of Ctrip's Beijing office. “We still have guests signing up for the cruise trip at the moment,” Chen says, adding that Ctrip has a procedure to refund money if their customers wish to cancel their cruise trip. Many travel agencies still offer tourism products on the Yangtze River. A five-day cruise on the river costs around 2,000 yuan ($322) at present—the usual price has not been changed after the tragedy, Chen says.
游轮沉没可能在短期内对旅游业有所影响。
5.What can be the main idea of the news report?
A.Cruise ship tourism in China is increasing rapidly.
B.Long-term cruise business is unlikely upset by Eastern Star tragedy.
C.Tourism products offered by travel agencies on the Yangtze River.
D.Eastern Star sank in the Yangtze River in Central ChinA s Hubei province.
答案:B 主旨大意题。从文中第一段以及第二段最后一句话及最后一段谈到旅游的价格并未受事故影响,可概括出主要内容为B项。
6.The ship overturned mainly due to________.
A.unusual weather conditions
B.its hitting something in the river
C.its traveling at too fast a speed
D.the overload of too many passengers
答案:A 事实细节题。从文中第二段“owing ‘mainly to rare
weather conditions’.”可知选A。
7.Which of the following phrases can replace the underlined word “refund ” in Para. 5?
A.Put out.
B.Take on.
C.Turn over.
D.Give back.
答案:D 词义猜测题。从本句中“if their customers wish to cancel their cruise trip”可知refund为“退还”。

One possible version:
Dear_Mr_Principal,_
I_am_a_senior_student_of_our_school._I'd_like_to_say_something_about_the_canteen_service_in_our_school. In general, the service is satisfactory. The hall is clean and tidy. The dishes look inviting and taste delicious as well. What's more, the workers there treat us as their friends, which makes us feel very happy.
However, we feel the price of the meals is a little too high. Besides, we can only have a limited variety of dishes with little change every week. In addition, we often have to stand in line for a long time before we can get the meal. You could understand how precious time is to us students. Therefore, may I suggest something be done to solve the problems so that we can all enjoy our meals at school?
Thanks for your consideration.
Sincerely_yours,_
Li_Hua
