The Best Places To Watch Fireworks This Fourth Of July

CALIFORNIA: LIGHTS ON THE LAKE (LAKE TAHOE)

Launched from boats on the shore of Lake Tahoe, this show is considered one of the biggest such displays in the West, which means the fireworks are visible all over town. If you’re worried about getting a seat, park your picnic at the El Dorado Beaches before 9:45 p.m. Or you can take the road less traveled and hike to the top of Mount Tallac for an unforgettable and best view of the display. Just remember you’ll have to hike down, so bring a headlight.

DELAWARE: REHOBOTH BEACH

Launched from the beach south of Rehoboth Avenue, these fireworks are visible up and down the boardwalk and beach. So jump on the Jolly Trolley(观光车) early and spend your whole day at the beach. There’s even live music after the fireworks. Note: This year’s fireworks display is scheduled for July 1, 2018.

FLORIDA: SERTOMA’S 4TH OF JULY FIREWORKS (PENSACOLA BAY)

The Gulf Coast knows how to celebrate the Fourth of July. With vendors, arts and crafts, kid-friendly activities and live entertainment, this fun-filled day in Old Seville culminates(达到高潮) with the largest fireworks display in the area. Unfortunately the pony rides and face painting are only for the kids, though.

GEORGIA: DAHLONEGA’S 4TH OF JULY CELEBRATION

Pack up your lawn chairs, blankets and coolers and head about an hour outside of Atlanta to the University of North Georgia. It’s even pet friendly — just make sure your dog can take the noise. And if you get to town early enough (11 a.m.), there’s a Fourth of July parade that aims to put all other Fourth of July parades to shame.

1.Where is the best spot to watch the fireworks in Lake Tahoe?

A.At the El Dorado Beaches. B.On the top of Mount Tallac.

C.Anywhere all over the town. D.On the shore of Lake Tahoe.

2.Which display is most suitable for children?

B.LIGHTS ON THE LAKE.

D.DAHLONEGA’S 4TH OF JULY CELEBRATION.

3.What do Georgians think of their parade?

A.The best. B.Just so so.

C.Not so bad. D.Very terrible.

 

1.B 2.C 3.A 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了四个在美国国庆日观看烟火的最佳之地。 1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Or you can take the road less traveled and hike to the top of Mount Tallac for an unforgettable and best view of the display. ”可知,Mount Tallac的山顶是观赏烟火的最佳地点,故B项正确。 2.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“kid-friendly activities and live entertainment和Unfortunately the pony rides and face painting are only for the kids, though.“”可知,塞尔玛的七月四日烟花展最适合孩子,故C项正确。 3.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“there’s a Fourth of July parade that aims to put all other Fourth of July parades to shame”可知,乔治亚州人认为他们的国庆游行会让其他的游行相形见绌,由此可知,乔治亚州人认为他们的游行是最好的,故A项正确。

The other day, we moved to the new school yard, where lies in the far north of the city. We were all on high spirits. It is much big than the old one. The classrooms are bright and clean.

    Ways to Get Your Kids into Nature

Being in nature for kids has tremendous health benefits. There are many ways you can incorporate nature into your children’s lives, even if you live in the city.

Inspire curiosity by being curious yourself. A parent’s excitement can be spread to the children, and when you show respect for nature, your children follow suit. 1.. “I don’t know! Let’s find out together.” is a wonderful way to get the ball rolling. Be open to a mutual adventure and allow your curious inner child to come out while you explore nature with your children.

2.. If you have to carpool(拼车) in the morning, turn off the devices instead and encourage your children to look out of the window. The early morning fall skies are beautiful with color and migrating birds. After all, even views of nature from the car window are calming and beneficial.

Stop thinking about nature time as leisure time. Time in nature is an essential investment in your children’s health and well­being. If you view nature time as essential to good health, you will be more likely to engage in it. 3. nurturing creativity and wonder is part of your responsibility as parents.

Look at the stars. Visit your local observatory, and then drive out of the city some morning or evening for your own stargazing(天体观察) with a blanket and telescope. Observing the stars offers a deeper and wider understanding of the universe. 4..

Plant a small garden. 5.. Bean and pea plants grow quickly and can be eaten when mature, so teach your children about food and the wonder of growth.

A.Limit electronic devices while driving

B.Encourage questions you don’t know the answers to

C.If you want to raise your healthy, well­balanced children

D.If you have the space, help your children plant a few vegetables

E.It will teach teamwork, pride in the community, and family togetherness

F.If your child is interested, encourage him to get involved in the community

G.Allow yourself to think about it, and talk to your children about that wonder
