            • 1． There are many places to go on safari（观赏野生动物）in Africa，but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys．
              Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure，providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta．The camps have excellent horses，professional guides and lots of support workers．They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience．
              The morning ride，when the guides take you to beautiful，shallow lakes full of water lilies，tends to be more active．It is unlike any other riding experience．With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face．It is truly exciting．You are very likely to come across large wild animals，too．On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants，giraffes and many other animals．The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though，as does your heart rate，as you move closer to them．
              In the evening，rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace．With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink．Sedate though they are，rides at this time of day are still very impressive．As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses，the romance of Africa comes to life．
              Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine．Looking back on your day，you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild．

            • 2． Hilversum is a medium-sized city between the major cities of Amesterdam andUtrecht in theGooi area of North Holland，the Netherlands．Unlike most of theNetherlands，Hilversum is actually in a hilly area with the soil mostly consisting of sand．Once called the Garden of Amsterdam，it still attracts travelers to come over to cycle and walk through the surrounding forests．They visit it for a relaxing day off from the urban madness．For Dutch people，Hilversum is all about textile（纺织）and media industries，and modern architecture．
              In history，Hilversum was largely an agricultural area．Daily life was marked by farming，sheep raising and wool production．A railway link to Amsterdam in 1874attracted rich traders from Amsterdam to Hilversum．They built themselves large villas（别墅）in the wooded surroundings of the town．One of the families moving in was the Brenninkmeijers，currently the wealthiest family of the Netherlands．They moved in after big success in the textileindustry and aided a substantial textileindustry in Hilversum．But the textile boom lasted only several decades．The last factory closed in the 1960s．
              The change to a media economy started in 1920，when theNederlandseSeintoestellenFabriek （NSF） established a radio factory in Hilversum．Most radio stations settled in the large villas in the leafy areas of the town．Television gave another push to the local economy．Hilversum became the media capital of theNetherlands，and Dutch television stars moved into the leafy neighborhoods surrounding the town．
              In the early 1900s，modern architects W．M．Dudok and J．Duiker placedhundreds of remarkable buildings in Hilversum．These modern architecturalmasterpieces（杰作） are so many that Hilversum almost feels like an open airmuseum．Dudok alone shaped most of 20th century Hilversum and approximately 75buildings still bear his unique characteristics．His masterpiece，Hilversum Town Hall，was built in 1928-1931．It has wide international fame and is included in manyarchitecture textbooks．The building has remarkable shape and looks like acombination of“blocks”．Actually，one may start his journey of modern architecture by walking or biking the W．M．Dudok Architectural Route in Hilversum．

              59．Hilversum is different form most of the Netherlands in that    ．

              A．Building a railway link to Amsterdam．
              B．Helping its textileindustry to develop．
              C．Constructing large villas for the poor．
              D．Assisting its agricultural industry．
              61．The beginning of the media industry in Hilversum was marked by the establishment of    ．

            • 3． You’ve flown halfway around the world；you’ve sniffed out this place that nobody in Falongland or Thailand seems to have ever heard of； so what on earth is there to do here？You consider this question as you sink into an old wooden beach chair that holds you above the sand．
              It was a long journey from Bangkok to Huaplee．By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out，it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland．
              Huaplee is located just south of Hua Hin，about two hundred kilometres from Bangkok，down the west side of the Gulf of Thailand．Not many tourists find this place，and the ones that do wonder if finding it has been their purpose all along．
              There’s an apparent laziness that surrounds you here．It’s what this place offers，and it’s free of charge．The small waves that tap the shoreline seem to slow everything down．You settle into your beach chair in preparation for a long rest．You sit there and watch the sea．
              It’s early afternoon，so the cook comes out and asks what you’d like to eat this evening．Before long he’s rushed off to the market to buy the ingredients for whatever it was that you ordered-every meal fresh and to order．No menu here．
              There is no poolside noise here but just that wonderfully warm，clear blue sea．There’s no street noise．The only sounds are the murmurs of nature．
              For now you just count your blessings （福祉），listing them in the sand with your toe （脚趾）．You don’t have to worry about being late for work．You don’t have to do anything．
              The beach to your right stretches off to the horizon （地平线），slowly narrowing to nothingness only to re-emerge again on your left，now steadily widening until it covers the chair beneath you．Sand to your left and sand to your right； it’s unbroken，endless．No start，no end，just sand，sun，and peace．Step off it，and you re-enter the world of traffic，stress，work，and hurry．
              Normally you’re the type who can’t sit still for more than ten minutes，but you’re on Huaplee Lazy Beach now and，in the right frame of mind，it stretches all the way around the world．
              “How could it take me so long to find it？”you wonder．

              63．When the author first went to Huaplee Beach，    ．
              A．he found it unworthwhile
              B．he failed to sort himself out
              C．he became sensitive to smell
              D．he had difficulty in finding it
              64．What is special about the food service at Huaplee Beach    ？
              A．No menu．
              B．Free food．
              C．Self service．
              D．Quick delivery．
              65．In the author’s opinion，a tourist can enjoy Huaplee Beach most when he    ．
              A．sits in a beach chair
              B．forgets his daily routine
              C．plans a detailed schedule
              D．draws pictures in the sand
              66．What does the author imply by his question at the end of the passage    ？
              A．He shouldn’t have counted his blessings．
              B．He should have understood the wonder of nature．
              C．He shouldn’t have spent so much time on the trip．
              D．He should have come to the place earlier．

              【1】A safari park is a park in which wild animals are kept．They are mainly located in east or central Africa．They often occupy a very wild area，with mountains and rivers．To visit the park and look at the animals，people have to drive around in a car for a few of hours because the park is huge．
              【2】In south Africa there is a safari park，which contains all sorts of wild animals like lions，elephants，rhinoceroses（犀牛），zebras，wild pigs，deer and giraffes．
              【3】There is a wild road leading through the park，but nobody is permitted to walk on the road．Anyone traveling in the park has to go in a car because wild animals may fiercely attack people．From the car he may see almost every types of African wildlife．Some of these are getting scarce （稀有的） because people kill them for various reasons．For example，rhinoceroses are killed for their horns （角），which are used in traditional Chinese medicines for colds and headaches．Perhaps they will be seen only in museums and books one day．
              【4】Travels may purchase food for the animals．They can feed them when they tour the park．Of course，they should not feed them in a close distance because the wild animals may attack people．In addition，they should only give proper food to the animals．
              【5】A  traveler may carry a gun with him in his journey．The gun is given to him by the government．However，it is not used for hunting．In fact，a seal is fixed to it．The traveler may fire at a wild beast to defend himself in case he is attacked．However，he has to prove to the government that he has been attacked and that he has not fired at a harmless animal．

            • 6． Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place．Around 1870，it was experiencing an economic（经济的）boom，and the capital，Buenos Aires，attracted many people．Farmers，as well as a flood of foreigners from Spain and Italy，came to Buenos Aires seeking jobs．These jobs didn’t pay well，and the people felt lonely and disappointed with their new life in the city．As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city，the dance known as the tango（探戈舞）came into being．
              At the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes．It was danced in the bars and streets．At that time there many fewer women than men，so if a man didn’t want to be left out，his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the few available women．Gradually，the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable．

              The popularity（流行）of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world．Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America．It reached Japan in 1926，and in 2003the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act an a kind of dance ambassador，and promote tango dancing throughout South Korea．

            • 7． In the United States，there were some well-constructed houses for native Indians，ranging from the simple brush shelter to the five-storied pueblo．
                In the eastern United States，one of the existing types was that commonl y know under the Algonkian name of wigwam in which the Iroquois Indians lived．The wigwams were of wagon-top shape with straight sides and ends，made by bending young trees to form the round shape．Over this shape pieces of tree bark were laid to protect the Indians from bad weather．Over the bark dried grass was added．A small hole allowed smoke to escape from the top．Doorways at each end served also as windows，The Iroquois Indians built trunk walls all around their villages．The wall had only one opening，They could quickly close this opening if their enemies came near．
                Interestingly，the Choctaw Indians in Mississippi also lived in a wigwam of a most primitive（原始的） construction，but different from those of the Iroquois Indians．The Choctaw Indians’wigwams，made from mud，cane and straw，were in the form of a bee-hive．The covering was made of a long，tough grass．A post in the centre supported the roof．A hole in the top admitted the light，and allowed the smoke to pass out．
                The tipi tent-housing of the upper lake and plains area was put up with poles set lightly in the ground，tied together near the top，and covered with bark and grass in the lake country．It was easily portable，and two women could set it up or take it down within an hour．
                The Pawnee，Mandan and other Indian tribes （部落） along the Missouri built solid ring-shaped structures of trunk，covered with earth and dried grass，housing a dozen families．
                The Wichita and other tribes of the Texas border built large ring-shaped houses covered with dried grass．
                Apart from the regular housing，almost every tribe had some style of housing．
