17.Seek Out a Unique BeachVISIT
Oregon.For sun and fun away from the crowded beaches of Florida,check out the Oregon coast and its 363miles of gorgeous shoreline,stretching from the Columbia River south to the redwood forests of California.Every beach is public and free."The coast is a perfect place to watch sea lions sun themselves or simply see the mighty Pacific waves crash in the sunset followed by a seafood feast in one of the busy fishing communities located between the coves (小海湾),"says Bramblett.July and August aren't peak gray whale migration season,but there's still a good chance you could catch a glimpse of some of the 200 whales that spend the summers off the Oregon coast.
SLEEP
Next to a lighthouse.Imagine yourself an ancient mariner when you book a room overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Heceta Head Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast in Yachats,Oregon.The working lighthouse,which dated to 1894,cast a bright beam 21 miles out to sea,making it the brightest light on the Oregon coast.The cliff-top rooms at the Light Keeper's home nearby aren't cheap-you'll shell out up to 385 foraweekendnightduringpeakseason(priceincludesaseven-coursebreakfast).
BEWARE
Dangerous currents.Unless you love cold water (or wear a wet suit),you may not want to venture into the sea off the Oregon coast,even during the summer.But if you do,be prepared for tip currents.To get out of a dangerous current,don't panic,warns Tom Grill,a spokesman for the U.S.Lifesaving Association.Swim parallel to the beach until you're no longer being pulled out to sea,then swim diagonally (成对角线地) toward the shore.
BRING
Baby powder.Use a generous amount of baby powder to remove sand from your hands,feet or hair.The powder quickly absorbs moisture,allowing sand to fall off easily.

60.It can be inferred from the section SLEEP thatC.
A.the price of one night stay remains the same all the year around                  
B.those who stay there can have a free access to the beach and the lighthouse
C.those who want to stay there have to pay more during a tourist season                      
D.the price includes the breakfast for seven people

A.Avoid wearing wet suits.
B.Never dive into the cold water off the coast.
C.Bring baby powder to protect your skin from sand scratches.

B.a mariner like stay in the more than 100-year-old lighthouse
C.a seafood feast in the popular local community

61.D.细节理解题.根据第三段Swim parallel to the beach until you're no longer being pulled out to sea,then swim diagonally (成对角线地) toward the shore可知有危险的暗流时不要直接游向岸边;故选D.
62.B.细节理解题.根据第二段Imagine yourself an ancient mariner when you book a room overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Heceta Head Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast in Yachats,Oregon可知文章没有提到水手喜欢在古老的灯塔停留;故选B.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

Just a few months following the events,Driver decided to join the United States Marine Corps.He considered 9/11as being one of the reasons for joining the army,with his desire to leave Indiana providing the rest.He once said,"I'm grateful for having grown up in Indiana,but I needed to go out and the Marine Corps was a nice,stable option."After serving for two and a half years,and just two months before he was sent to Iraq,Driver injured his sternum in a biking accident.After he was healed,he injured it again during military training,which resulted in an honorable medical discharge.

8.The digital onslaught of e-books and Amazon-style e-trailers has put bookstores in an existential situation.Digital books are expected to outsell print titles by 2015in Britain,says Sam Hancock,digital product manager at HarperCollins,and even sooner in America.With the demise of HMV,that music-peddling stalwart,still fresh in everyone's minds,bricks-and-mortar bookstores appear to be on borrowed time.So,what is the future of the bookstore?
This was the burning questions on everyone's lips at a recent event at Foyles's flagship bookshop on Charing Cross Road in London,where some of Britain's leading literary agents,authors,marketing managers and booksellers gathered to discuss its fate ahead of the bookseller's move from its current big,old building to the former home of Central Saint Martin's,art school just up the road.
For a bookstore to remain successful,it must improve"the experience of buying books,"says Alex Lifschutz,an architect whose London-based practice is designing the new Foyles.He suggests an array of approaches:"small,quiet spaces cocooned with books; larger spaces where one can dwell and read; other larger but still intimate spaces where one can hear talks from authors about books,literature,science,travel and cookery."The atmosphere is vital,he adds.
Exteriors must buzz with activity,entrances must be full of eye-catching presentations and a bar and cafe is essential.
The trend for not only incorporating cafes in bookstores but also placing them on the top floor makes good sense.The new Foyles will have one,Mr.Lifschutz explains,because this draws shoppers upwards floor-by-floor,which is bound to encourage people to linger longer and spend more.
There are plenty of ways to delight the bookstore customer,but few are easily changed into money.The consensus is that bookstores need to become cultural destinations where people are prepared to pay good money to hear a concert,see a film or attend a talk.The programming will have to be intelligent and the space comfortable.Given how common it is for shoppers to browse in shops only to buy online later,some wonder whether it makes sense to charge people for the privilege.Victoria Barnsley,head of HarperCollins,thinks it might be a good idea.She cited similar experiments among clothing retailers to charge customers for trying on merchandise.
But forcing people to pay for the privilege of potentially paying for goods could discourage shoppers altogether.A more attractive idea might be a membership scheme like those offered by museums and Other cultural venues.Unlike reward cards,which offer discounts and other nominal benefits,a club membership could provide priority access to events (talks,literary workshops,retreats) and a private lounge where members can eat,drink and meet authors before events.Different memberships could tailor to the needs of children and students.
To survive and thrive,bookstores should celebrate the book in all its forms:rare,second-hand,digital,self-printed and so on.Digital and hybrid readers should have the option of buying e-books in-store,and budding authors should have access to self-printing book machines.The latter have been slower to take off in Britain,but in America bookstores are finding them to be an important source of revenue."The quality is now,almost identical to that of a book printed by a major publishing house,"says Bradley Graham,owner of a leading independent bookstore in Washington,DC,called Politics&Prose.His shop leases an Espresso Book Machine and makes it available to customers.
The bookstore of the future will have to work hard.Service will be knowledgeable and personalized,the inventory expertly selected,spaces well-designed and the cultural events enticing.Whether bookstores,especially small independents are up to the challenge,is not clear.
The fate of these stores is a cliffhanger.

63.What will be the future of bookstores?B
A.Bright.
B.Unclear.
C.Helpless.
D.Promising.
64.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a strategy to help a bookstore to be successful?C
A.Attractive presentations around the entrance.
B.Suitable spacing arrangements.
C.Luxurious decorations.
D.A bar and cafe.
65.Which of the following might be a better idea to attract shoppers?B
A.Charges on privileges.
B.Club memberships.
C.Periodic discounts.
D.Reward cards.
66.To survive,bookstores shouldD.
A.find ways to attract children and students
B.offer more second-hand books
C.lower the price of books
D.provide books in different forms.

6.Four Wild Animal Species Were EndangeredMaybe you can still see them at the zoo.But that doesn't mean they're doing alright in the wild.
Tigers
All six tiger species are endangered,with Suatran tigers and South China tigers at a seriously endangered status.The main reasons for their population decline are illegal hunting and destroyed habitats,as humans clear forests to gather timber and build roadways.Only about 3890 tigers presently live in the wild.
Ground squirrels
That's right,even squirrels are endangered,specifically the San Joaquin ground squirrel.Native to California,USA,these guys have been disappearing since 1979 on account of the construction and human developments going through their habitat.Their total population is unknown,but it could be anywhere between 124000 and 4130000.
Giraffes
The International Union for the Conservation of Nature recently put giraffes at a vulnerable status,the level just before endangered.Th e giraffe population has declined 40 percent in the last 30 years,primarily due to loss of habitat and illegal hunting.Some giraffes are killed just for their tails,which are considered status symbols in Africa.
Asian elephants
The main threat to Asian elephants,one of the most intelligent animals,is their shrinking habitat.As the human population grows,people invade their land to build roads and railway tracks.Elephants in Myanmar are at an especially high risk for being captured and traded or used illegally in the tourist industry.Fewer than 50000 are left on the entire continent.

21.What is the total population of tigers living in the wild?A
A.Around 3890.
B.50000.
C.124000.
D.413000.
22.Which of the following is considered one of the most intelligent animals?D
A.Tigers.
B.Giraffes.
C.Ground squirrels.
D.Asian elephants.
23.What is the common threat to the four wild animals?B
A.Illegal hunting.
B.Disturbed habitat.
C.Developing tourism.
D.Unnecessary construction.
24.Which word can best describe the present situation for protecting wild animals?C
A.Satisfactory     
B.Optimistic.
C.Urgent.
D.Stable.
