Asia has many wild places. The following national parks are among the most famous in Asia. People come to visit them from near and far in order to appreciate the unique qualities of the land and everything on it. Have you ever visited any of these Asian national parks?
Jiuzhai Valley National Park, China
The extraordinarily beautiful park is famous for its fascinating blue-green lakes, waterfalls and its unique wildlife. Located in the Minshan Mountain, Sichuan Province, it is a breathtaking park because of its scenery and it is also home to nine Tibetan villages, over 220 bird species as well as a number of endangered animals and plants, such as giant pandas, Sichuan golden monkeys and numerous orchids. This park was also declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992.
Khao Sok(考索)National Park, Thailand
This extraordinary park is several miles away from Phuket(普吉岛), yet its remoteness(遥远)prevents it from being visited. Even so, it is well worth a visit as scientists have noted that is rainforest stretches are not only longer than those of the Amazon, but also more divers(多样化的). Animals like tigers, Asian elephants, and macaaues make their home here. Everyone who visits the park, however, seems to want to have a look at the amazing Rafflesia, one of the strangest flowering plants on earth; it smells like smelly meat when it blooms.
Nikko(日高)National Park, Japan
It is lovely to visit this park all the year round with its waterfalls and picturesque Lake Chuzenji. And it is especially worth visiting in autumn when the leaves change from green to deep red and orange. Set with UNESCO protected shrines(神坛)and temples, the park is a unique mixture of natural and man-made attractions. With various routes perfect for adventurous hikers, a visit to the Nikko National Park is not to be missed.

C
Mars( 火星) appears to be flowing with small streams of salty water, at least in the summer, scientists reported Monday."It suggests that.it would be possible for there to be life today on Mars," NASA's science mission chief, John Grunsfeld, said at a news conference on September 28, 2015.
The streams are about 12 to 15 feet wide and 300 feet or more long, scientists said."What we're dealing with is wet soil.thin layers of wet soil, not standing water," said Aifred McEwen of the University of Arizona at Tueson ! the principal scientist for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's high-resolution imaging experiment.
Because liquid water is essential to life, the findings could have major implications for the possibility of Martian life.The researchers said further exploration is needed to determine whether microscopic life exists on the planet.
The presence of liquid water could also make life easier for astronauts visiting or
living on Mars.Water could be used for drinking and for creating oxygen and rocket
fuel.NASA's goal is to send humans there in the 2030s.
The evidence of flowing water consists largely of dark, narrow streaks(条痕) on
the surface that tend to appear and grow during the warmest Martian months and fade
the rest of the year.
Mars is extremely cold even in summer, and the streaks are in places where the
temperature is as low as minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit.But salt can lower the freezing point of water and melt ice.
The source of the water is a mystery.Scientists noted it could be melting
ice.It could be an underground aquifer, which is rock or sand that can hold water.It is possibly water vapor from the thin Martian atmosphere, Or it may be a combination Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA's Mars exploration program, said the only definitive way for now to determine whether there's life on Mars is to collect rocks and soil for analysis on Earth - something a U.S.lander set for lift-off in 2020 will do.
1.What would be the best title for the text? '
A.Streams of Water Spotted on Mars
B.Astronauts will Land on Mars
C.NASA's Mars Exploration Program
D.A Breakthrough in the Exploration of Mars
2.According to John Grunsfeld, there seems to be on Mars.
A.salty water
B.standing water
C.rocket fuel
D.human beings
3.Scientists are uncertain about the of the water on Mars.
A.state
B.source
C.temperature
D.taste
4.What matters to the existence of liquid water on Mars?
A.The distance from the sun.
B.The favorable climate.
