Jeff Flake of Arizona decided to find out. Jeff Flake took a vacation and went (28) a four-day Robinson Crusoe style holiday with his two teenage sons, 15-year-old Tanner and 13-year-old Dallin. They traveled 5,200 miles (29) Phoenix, Arizona to Biggarenn Island, a distant island in the North Pacific Ocean. They didn’t carry any food (30) water. The island is part of the Marshall Islands. It offered (31) basic equipment, so the Flakes had to catch and cook their own food and purify their water. Their diet was made up of coconuts, crabs and fish. (32) captured the crabs and fish by themselves and cooked the food over (33) open fire. The Flakes carried two pumps to remove salt from ocean water. It took (34) several hours each night to pump for just a few gallons of fresh water. (35) the adventure was challenging, it was still an enjoyable holiday for them. “For a dad it was a wonderful trip. No video games around, no television, and no texting, Flake said. Part II Reading Comprehension Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. A ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A giant snowman named Snowzilla has mysteriously appeared again this year - despite the city’s ban. Someone again built the giant snowman in Billy Powers’ front yard in Anchorage. Snowzilla reappeared before dawn Tuesday, two days before 2011 Christmas. For the last three years, Snowzilla - to the delight of some and the disagreement of others - has been a very popular attraction in Powers’ yard. In 2008, Snowzilla rose 16 feet. He had a corncob pipe and a carrot nose and two eyes made out of beer bottles. This year, Snowzilla is about 25 feet tall. He’s wearing a black stovepipe hat and a scarf. Snowzilla has been rising outside Powers’ home. His children - he is the father of seven - collected snow from neighbors’ yards to make the snowman big enough. Each year, Snowzilla got a bit bigger. Not everybody in the neighborhood liked all the cars and visitors who came to see him. City officials thought Snowzilla to be a public nuisance and potential danger. The city put up a public notice on Powers’ door. City officials said Snowzilla increased traffic to the point of endangerment and that the snowman itself was unsafe. The mayor’s office on Tuesday issued a statement defending its move against Snowzilla. “He has repeatedly ignored city efforts to find ways to cater for his desire to build a giant snowman without taking the quiet life quality of the neighborhood into consideration, said an official from Mayor Mark Begich’s office. “This is a neighborhood of small homes on small streets. It can’t support so heavy traffic and visitors that are interested in Snowzilla. The city said it did not expect to take any further action until after Christmas. 查看更多
