I fell in love with Yosemite National Park the first time I saw it, when I was 13. My parents took us there for camping. On the way out, I asked them to wait while I ran up to El Capitan, a __16__ rock of 3,300 feet straight up. I touched that giant rock and knew __17__ I wanted to climb it. That has been my life's passion (钟爱) ever since — __18__ the rocks and mountains of Yosemite. I've long made Yosemite my __19__.
About 15 years ago I started seeing a lot of __20__, like toilet paper, beer cans, and empty boxes, around the area. It's __21__ me why visitors started respecting the place __22__ and treated such a beautiful homelike place this way.
I tried __23__ trash (垃圾) myself, but the job was too big. I would __24__ an hour or two on the job, only to find the area trashed all over again weeks later. Finally, I got so __25__ it that I decided something had to change.
As a rockclimbing guide, I knew __26__ about organizing any big event. But in 2004,together with some climbers, I set a date for a __27__. On that day,more than 300 people __28__. Over three days we collected about 6,000 pounds of trash. It was amazing how much we were able to __29__. I couldn't believe the __30__ we made—the park looked clean!
Each year volunteers come for the cleanup from everywhere. In 2007 alone, 2,945 people picked up 42,330 pounds of trash and __31__ 132 miles of roadway.
I often hear people __32__ about their surroundings. If you are one of them, I would say the only way to change things is by __33__ rather than complaining. We need to teach by __34__. You can't blame others __35__ you start with yourself.

16. B 从下文的that giant rock可知选B。
17. A 句意:我触摸到那块巨石时,立刻知道我想攀登它。immediately立即,马上。

29. C 根据上一句 “Over three days we collected about 6,000 pounds of trash”可知选C(完成)。
30. D 根据破折号后的 “the park looked clean”可知,因为我们把公园里的垃圾捡完了,公园变得干净了,与以前不同了,故选D。
31. C 此句的意思是“2007年一年中,2945个人捡了42330磅垃圾,覆盖了132英里的路面。”
