The road, originally built by early pioneers and then improved by Santa Fe Railroad, winds along the Canyon’s rim(边) for 7 miles and is closed to public vehicle traffic. It boasts the best scenic bike ‎ ride and the safest for families wanting to explore the rim by bike. After boarding our vehicle together with your bikes, we begin riding at Hopi Point which offers one of the most sweeping views of the canyon available on the South Rim.‎ From there the tour proceeds westward for 5.6 miles of low riding, stopping at amazing lookouts along the way to take in the sights and hear interesting information about the natural and human history of the area. The tour ends at Hermit Rest where you can take your picture with the historic bell at the entrance to the 1914 Mary Jane Colter building designed and preserved to provide shelter, food and curios(古玩) for tourists. From Hermit’s rest, our vehicle will return you and your bikes to our location at the Visitor Center. This is a fantastic tour for everyone including families with children!‎ Two-person minimum on tours: Please note that we have a two-person minimum requirement to run a tour. In the unlikely event that you are the only person booked on a tour, we’ll do our best to reschedule you on a different bike tour on the same day or give you a full refund.‎ Pricing:‎ ● ‎$58 adult ● ‎$45 child under 16‎ What the tour includes:‎ ● Rental bicycle ● Rental helmet ● ‎3 hours of enjoying Grand Canyon geology, archeology, biology, natural history, and recent human history Schedule: Tour departs twice daily: 10 am & 3 pm ‎21.

D. Tourists can learn more about the Grand Canyon.‎ B When the evening is coming, my dear son and I are preparing for the tape time. “Shoes on,” I remind 9-year-old Sam. “Snakes are always waiting for the chance to kiss you. But with our feet stepped into my car, we are safe.” We take blankets and cups of milk and head out to the shelter that serves as our garage. This has become our bedtime habit. ‎ I press “play.” A motherly voice fills the car. My mother and my aunt send us books on tape obtained from secondhand shops or rescued from the back of a drawer. Maybe no one in England plays cassettes anymore, but I still love them. ‎ Sam rests on his seat. He’s sitting in the front seat. I am listening to the cassette. But I am also thinking. In a month’s time, my boy will be 10. Next year, he will be 11. And so it will go on, until he leaves me and his father and his sister to live out his own stories.‎ Will he think back to the times when he sat in the dark in a car in Africa, listening to tales of Wales in World War II, the finest lady detective of Botswana, or a country he has visited, and tell me he finds them “very interesting”? Will he think, when he is grown-up, the poor mum always makes the ancient tape player which is out of date work?‎ I like to believe that he will recall those wonderful moments. By then, perhaps, my child will realize a deep love of sharing and understanding by listening to the old tape play. I hope Sam will think that these evenings we spend in the car are a story themselves. It is his own first chapter. In time my boy will ease off the hand brake and roll out into the world. Until then, I’ll keep pressing “play”.‎ ‎24. What habit did the writer and her son develop?‎ ‎ A. To play outside in the evening. ‎ ‎ B. To listen to tapes in a car. ‎ ‎ C. To drive in the evening. ‎ ‎ D. To read books together at night.‎ ‎25. In Paragraph 4, the two questions can prove that ______.‎ ‎ A. playing with children is fun for parents ‎ B. listening to stories is a good way to enjoy life ‎ C. children need to ask questions in reading ‎ D. listening experiences will be part of Sam’s life ‎26. The last paragraph implies that the writer ______.‎ ‎ A. will build up Sam’s memory of his childhood ‎ B. will ask Sam to play all by himself ‎ C. won’t give up playing until Sam grows up ‎ D. will keep the player playing all the time ‎27. The best title for the passage may be “______”.‎ ‎ A. A story of a tape player ‎ ‎ B. A childhood full of love and story ‎ C. Deep love for the tape player ‎ ‎ D. The future life of our children C When it comes to the Internet, people talk about the password (密码) most. Actually, it’s been under fire for a long time. Research has shown that passwords are not a very good way to protect sensitive information.‎ People would use some random characters, numbers and symbols. Furthermore, a unique password would be used for every site or application the user uses. Unfortunately, the longer and more complex passwords become, the more people are likely to forget them. Therefore, they use the same password for every service or application. These are all big no-noes and essentially defeat the purpose of a password.‎ Google is trying to kill off passwords on Android devices by introducing the Trust API, which does what simple passwords cannot and gives developers a framework for securing their application using a number of security systems and metrics (衡量标准) on the device. A Trust Score will be generated based on the metrics the device gathers and will allow or refuse access to applications based on whether or not your Trust Score is high enough. The Trust Score will be ‎ generated based on a number of metrics including your device location, face scanning, fingerprints, and the things like your typing speed or the way you speak. Taken one at a time, these metrics are not secure. But taken together, these metrics will help recognize the real “you”.‎ The good news is that Google has already been testing this on real world data. Google has proven the Trust API works. Next Google will run tests with some banks to see if the Trust API meets their needs before rolling out the system on Android phones later. It may take another year for apps and popular sites to start using the Trust API.‎ This is a pretty exciting change. Passwords have been around for a long time. Although the security of systems has been improved, the usability of systems hasn’t been proved much. Google appears to have the best of them. Maybe that never-ending conflict between security and convenience will be able to take a break once the Trust system comes out.‎ 28. ‎ What is implied in the underlined sentence in Para. 2?‎ A. Users make mistakes in using passwords.‎ B. Users should know the purpose of passwords.‎ C. Users have learnt to say no to their passwords.‎ D. Users misunderstand the meaning of passwords.‎ 29. How is the key part of the Trust API generated?‎ A. By taking one metric at a time.‎ B. By combining various metrics.‎ C. By developing security systems.‎ D. By analyzing complex passwords.‎ 30. What can we know about the Trust system from the text?‎ A. It needs to be improved in future.‎ B. It hasn’t been proven to be effective.‎ C. It will be used on Android devices first.‎ D. It is secure and convenient for the users.‎ 31. What would be the best title for the text?‎ A. How does Google develop the Trust API?‎ B. Will the Trust API meet the users’ needs?‎ C. Will passwords soon be a thing of the past?‎ D. How do passwords protect personal information?‎ D The Diary of Anne Frank was first published in the United States 60 years ago. The classic account has long been an international bestseller. Many know the story. Few realize how difficult it was for the story to be published, and how even more difficult it was to get the book adapted for the stage. Several collections across the Harry Ransom Center help to tell this story.‎ ‎ After his liberation from Auschwitz in 1945, Anne’s father Otto Frank discovered he was the sole survivor of the family. He was given his daughter’s diaries by a family friend who had helped hide the Franks. Frank edited the diaries himself, and had them published in Dutch by Contact Publishing of Amsterdam in 1947.‎ ‎ In the years after, Frank struggled to find an American publisher. After the manuscript was offered to several publishers, it eventually made its way to Alfred Knopf, Inc. in July of 1950. But the reviewer found the manuscript to be “childish” and “very dull reading”: “Despite the unusual ‎ circumstances of the two years it covers, this diary is a dreary record of typical family quarrel and adolescent emotions. It is not in any way a literary achievement.”‎ ‎ Later, the American rights to the Diary of Anne Frank were picked up by Doubleday, but Doubleday delayed publication. The editors of Commentary magazine learned of the Diary and wrote to Doubleday requesting permission to publish excerpts of the manuscript. According to Commentary, Doubleday initially refused, stating that they had hoped to syndicate (联合出版) the story “in a magazine that pays top prices.” When they failed to find a magazine, Doubleday returned to Commentary. Thus, the first time The Diary appeared in print in the United States was in the May and June 1952 issues of Commentary. The response was enthusiastic, and Doubleday moved forward with publishing the full manuscript.‎ After this overwhelming success, Otto Frank looked for several adapters for a stage adaptation. Among them was Lillian Hellman who declined the opportunity. “I think it is a great historical work which will probably live forever, but I couldn’t be more wrong as the adapter. If I did this it would run one night because it would be deeply depressing. You need someone with a lighter touch.” Hellman finally recommended Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, who would go on to write the Pulitzer Prize-winning drama. The play opened on Broadway on October 5, 1957, and ran for over 700 performances. ‎ ‎32. Why was The Diary refused to be published by Alfred Knopf, Inc.?‎ A. Because The Diary gives a description of two unusual years.‎ B. Because Anne Frank was too young to be recognised.‎ C. Because the publisher didn’t see much value in The Diary.‎ D. Because Anne’s father found another publisher.‎ ‎33. Which word is closest in meaning to the underlined word “excerpts”?‎ A. parts B. abstracts C. quotes D. themes ‎34. Which of the following is true according to the passage?‎ A. Lillian Hellman wrote an adaptation of The Diary.‎ B. Anne and her father were saved in the end.‎ C. The Diary has been a very popular for a long time.‎ D. The Diary experienced a cold shoulder when first put on Broadway.‎ ‎35. What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A. What The Diary of Anne Frank was about.‎ B. How The Diary of Anne Frank first made it to the US.‎ C. Why The Diary of Anne Frank was popular in the US.‎ D. When and why The Diary of Anne Frank was published.‎ 第二节：七选五（共5小题，每题3分，满分15分）‎ Imagine being the only person in the Forbidden City. _36_.
