Passage Two
[29]Majestic, serene. Just two words to describe the scenic regions of Utah in the Mountain West of the United States. Now, our office offers fabulous, five-day outdoor packages to the state for the adventurous.
On the first day of your tour, visit the capital of historic Salt Lake City, Temple Square, home to the world-famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and other local historical sites.
Then, your tour will take you on a four-day adventure of a lifetime to central and southern Utah where you will [30]hike and backpack through Arches National Park, Goblin Valley, and Bryce National Park. You'll also explore the magical world of Little Wild Horse Canyon. This very narrow, winding chasm, with its steep walls on either side of you, will leave you in amazement knowing that it was formed from rushing water and erosion over millions of years.
You'll also hike and scramble up to remote Indian ruins, study their history along the way, and learn how to respect and preserve the sites and wildlife you encounter. You also learn the basics in rappelling-techniques designed specifically for the amateur climber.
[31]The price of your package includes local transportation in Utah, one-night's lodging in a four-star hotel in Salt Lake City, hiking and camping gear, two meals a day, and your professional tour guide. Transportation from your point of origin is not included. Contact our office between 8 and 5:30 p.m. for more information and current availability on this wilderness trek, and reservations must be made thirteen days in advance. Let us show Utah like no one else can.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. What is the feature of the scenic regions?
正確答案:B
解析:短文一開頭就提到,猶他州只需用兩個詞來形容:壯美、寧靜。B為原文中majestic和serene的同義替換,故為答案。
30. Which activity is included in the package tour?
正確答案:B
解析:短文說,游客們將背包徒步穿行猶他州內的Arches, Goblin Valley, and Bryce三個國家森林公園。故答案為B。四個選項都描述了游玩的項目。注意做好記號,謹防有的項目沒有出現(xiàn)、有的項目的描述張冠李戴。
31. What is covered in the price of the tour?
正確答案:B
解析:短文說,這個旅行套餐的費用包括猶他州本地交通,鹽湖城四星級酒店一晚住宿,遠足裝備,一日兩餐和專業(yè)導游。故答案為B。四個選項分別講述食、宿、交通和裝備四個細節(jié),注意每個細節(jié)的限制或修飾條件。
