    Dreaming of summer picnics filled with family and fun? We’ve come up with 4 of the top picnic areas across the US.

Cumberland Islands, Georgia

Just a few hours south of Savannah, this national seashore is a wonderful picnic place. It’s an unspoiled place in the Deep South with over 50 miles of hiking trails (小径). Covered in Spanish moss, the trails are lined with trees and since it’s still a rural area, the stars line up for a grand show at night and create the perfect evening starlit picnic opportunity.

Grant Park, Chicago

If you are looking for delicious food in Chicago, go for a taste of a 20-day, lake-front, foodie festival that happens in October each year. Grab a spot near the fountain to enjoy your picnic, appreciate the city scenery and lake views and relax with family and friends. If you are there on July 4th, be sure to plan the day to include the fireworks display at the Navy Pier.

Cranberry Islands, Maine

Here, you’ll enjoy natural picnics with island views. The islands are a delightful group of islands about 20 minutes offshore from Acadia National Park. You can visit the islands by private boat or ferry service. Bring a picnic basket along for the ride as it’s a romantic picnic area to take your special someone or go for a family outing to visit the islands.

Big Sur, California

The Point Lobos State Reserve is a small gem. Besides the coastal wildlife there are rare plant communities, and unique geological formations. It’s good to have a picnic there. We recommend bringing a telescope, because much of the wildlife can be seen only at a distance.

1.Why does the writer advise us to go to Cumberland Islands?

A.Because they are just next to Savannah.

B.Because they have a grand show every night.

C.Because they are almost covered in Spanish moss.

D.Because they keep their original ecology (生态).

2.Where can you enjoy observing wildlife with a telescope?

A.At the Navy Pier. B.At the Point Lobos State Reserve

C.At Acadia National Park. D.In the Deep South.

3.Where can we most probably read this passage?

A.In a personal dairy. B.In a science report.

C.In a geography textbook. D.In a travel magazine.

 

1.D 2.B 3.D 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了四个最佳野餐地点。 1.细节理解题。根据第二段中Covered in Spanish moss, the trails are lined with trees and since it’s still a rural area, the stars line up for a grand show at night and create the perfect evening starlit picnic opportunity.(小路上爬满了西班牙苔藓,两旁种满了树。由于这里仍然是一个乡村地区,所以星星们会在晚上排起队来参加盛大的表演,这是在夜晚星光照耀下野餐的绝佳机会。)可知作者建议我们去坎伯兰群岛,因为那里保持着原生态。故选D。 2.细节理解题。根据最后一段中Besides the coastal wildlife there are rare plant communities, and unique geological formations. It’s good to have a picnic there. We recommend bringing a telescope, because much of the wildlife can be seen only at a distance.(除沿海野生动物外,还有珍稀植物群落和独特的地质构造。在那里野餐很好。我们建议带上望远镜,因为很多野生动物只能在远处看到。)可知在the Point Lobos国家保护区可以享受用望远镜观察野生动物的乐趣。故选B。 3.推理判断题。根据第一段Dreaming of summer picnics filled with family and fun? We’ve come up with 4 of the top picnic areas across the US.(梦想着充满家庭和乐趣的夏日野餐?我们列出了全美4个最佳野餐地。)以及文章主要介绍了四个最佳野餐地点可知最可能在一本旅游杂志上读到这篇文章。故选D。

In August 2014, paleoanthropologist (古人类学家)Yingqi Zhang and his team went down into a sinkhole on the hunt for Gigantopithecus, the largest known primate(灵长类动物)to ever live. They came back out with a mix of bones from the unfortunate 1. (creature) that had fallen into the natural "death trap". None of those bones belonged to the extinct ape, but the team was in for a surprise: The mix included a 22,000-year-old lower jaw from 2.ancient panda. And within its worn edges, the jaw contained 3. is now the world’s oldest sample of panda DNA. Moreover, the genetic evidence 4.(show) that the bone comes from a 5.(previous) unknown lineage of giant panda.

Why Do You Mishear Popular Song Lyrics (歌词)?

When Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" topped the charts in early 2019, it seemed like you couldn't go five minutes without hearing "I’m gonna take my horse to the old town road . " But a significant subgroup caught this instead “ I’m gonna take my horse to the hotel room. 1.We've been misunderstanding song lyrics for decades, Elton John's “hold me closer, Tony Danza" —er, "tiny dancer"— included. These modem musical mishearings even have their own name mondegreens.

2. When noise hits our eardrums, tiny hairs convert it into an electric signal, which travels through the auditory nerve to the temporal lobe (颗叶). 3. If the sounds are clear and the terms familiar, we then "hear" a mostly accurate translation of what someone is saying. But music can drown out lyrics, and singers can pronounce words with extra ability. The sounds in songs are often muddy and unclear. In this case, our brains struggle to find what makes sense.

In that panic, our head reacts by offering up similar-sounding but far more familiar phrases, says Thomas Ethofer, a professor of psychotherapy in Germany. For example, if the mind can't firstly comprehend taking a horse to an old town road, it offers up an alternative to quickly solve the problem. 4.

In fact, according to Ethofer, previous knowledge of the mondegreen will make you more likely to hear it. 5. From a psychological aspect, he says, perhaps these mix-ups are so common because we enjoy resolving unclearness. Regardless — the sky, this guy, tiny dancer, Tony Danza, old town road, hotel room — they are all still songs we'll listen to on repeat.

A.This was far from a first.

B.No wonder you will make this mistake.

C.How can you listen to something more accurately?

D.There, it turns nerve firings into words with meaning.

E.That's because your brain is already prepared for that version.

F.That translation can stick, even after we learn the correct lyrics.

G.So why does the Jimi Hendrix lyric "kiss the sky" often become "kiss this guy"?
