【題目】 There is nothing better than an old-fashioned swimming hole to get away from the heat this summer. Here's where to find the best places all over the country.
Madison Blue Spring, Florida This naturally-formed spring (泉水) lives up to its name (名副其實(shí)): The water is blue and attractive. Now a state park, the 25-foot deep swimming hole lies inside a lovely forest next to the Withlacoochee River in northern Florida. If you are brave, you can even swim into the hole's underwater caves. | Santa Rosa Blue Hole, New Mexico Like an oasis (綠洲) in the desert, this swimming hole keeps a perfect temperature of 62 degrees. The water is so clear that you can see the bottom. It is because the water, which is connected to an underwater cave system (系統(tǒng)), renews itself every six hours. You can even jump in from the edge of the broken sinkhole (沉洞), which is off the famous highway Route 66. |
Switzer Falls, California You can get out of the city with a trip to the Bear Canyon area of Angeles National Forest near Los Angeles. Follow the river to the 50-foot Switzer Falls, and you can pass lots of natural pools before and after the waterfall (瀑布). You can choose what you like! Getting there requires hiking a couple of miles out and back, but the cool water on a hot day is worth it. | Peekamoose Blue Hole, New York Sometimes natural beauty can be nearly ruined because it is famous. The Peekamoose Blue Hole is in such a worrying situation. The swimming hole faced overuse, environmental harm and pollution. So strict rules were made to protect the quiet place several years ago. In the future, a permit (許可證) may be required to visit the pool to limit the number of visitors. |

【題目】 The last football season was long over. Our team had done well but I wanted us to do even better the next year. But how? Then an idea hit me. I ordered cards with simple words—"BOONVILLE PIRATES—1974 STATE CHAMPIONS(州冠軍)!"
When the cards were printed, we gave them out all over the town. Pretty soon those cards were everywhere. That was what we wanted. We wanted our goal(目標(biāo)) to be right in front of us, and for all to see.
Although someone doubted our words, it only served to encourage us to make our dream come true. Our school had never won a state champion in any sport—we decided to change that history.
By the time football practice started in late August, we were focused. With our goal in our minds, we stepped into the final.
Then it started to snow. A huge storm broke and school was cancelled. But we made it to the school gym(體育館) and kept practicing.
Our coach received a call the night before the game. He told us that sate officers were thinking of cancelling the game and announcing that both teams were champions because of the bad weather. We were asked if we would accept that. "No way" was our answer.
The day came. We arrived at the football field and found it was covered in snow. Still, we began our warm-ups.
Both teams didn't score in the first half. We became worried because time was running out on our team. During the break, Coach Rengan reminded us of what we had been through to get to this moment. Then he pulled out the card, saying. "Do you want this?"
Paying conditions were still difficult, but our determination didn't disappear. We unbelievably scored 34 points in the second half. Our year-long dream came true—1974 STATE CHAMPIONS.
【1】Why did the members give out the cards all over the town?
A.To make their dream about a state champion known.
B.To call on people to join their team.
C.To tell their success in the last football season.
D.To invite people to watch the game.
【2】What do we know about the team?
A.They changed the words in their cards.
B.They learned a lot from the other team.
C.They refused the decision made by the state officers.
D.They practiced out of school because of the storm.
【3】Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A.The author(作者) ordered cards in 1973.
B.Some people in town doubted the words on the card.
C.The players became worried when arriving at the football field.
D.The author's team scored 34 points in the final.
【4】What did the Coach Reagan do during the team's break time?
A.He taught them to stay calm.B.He gave them some valuable advice.
C.He comforted (安慰) them for a scoreless first half.D.He reminded them of their dream.
