任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Duane, Rodney, Horace, Sandra 和 Rachel 正计划选一个景点去过周末。阅读下面六个景点的介绍，选出符合个人个性特长的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余选项。

Now Obama has been President of the USA. Rodney is very excited because his grandfather used to be a friend of Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks and devoted himself to the struggle of civil rights for black people in the USA. He wants very much to find a museum where he can learn more about their struggle.

Noticing Sandra has been very tired from weeks of hard work at her lessons, her father decides to take her for a relaxation visit to an entertainment place. Now Sandra is asked to pick out an attraction where her father can see some wonderful exhibits, while she herself can enjoy some splendid music.

As a hard-working student who will head for the major that has a lot to do with botany after he graduates from high school, Rachel hopes to find an attraction which offers him the knowledge of plants and the connection between plants and nature.

As an active and energetic student, Duane has a special interest in the great athletes, great champions and their achievements of his state. Therefore, he has a strong desire that he should find a wonderful place where he can feast his eyes by using the coming weekend.

Maybe greatly affected by his father who is a well-known scientist, Horace has shown a great gift for science. Now he has come up with an idea: Why not try to find a science center where he himself can do some real scientific actions?
