举一反三
While in Banff, make time for a walk around town. A special treat is to go up the mountainside on the Banff Gondola for a surprising view of the valley below. Here is The pines, whose cook has developed a special way of mixing foreign food such as caribou, wild boar, and reindeer with surprising sauces.
Best time to visit is during the off-season, from early May to mid-June, or in October. This way you can avoid sharing the high way with mobile homes which can be pulled by cars. But whatever the season, take some lunch with you from Banff, because there are only a few food stops on the road.
Forty minutes north of Banff, side by side with the Banff National Park, sits world-famous Lake Louise. This surprisingly small body of water is attractive with towering mountains around it. Glaciers, huge masses of ice, moving very slowly against rocks, produce what is called glacier rock flour, making its water dark to see. It is worth taking a walk around the grounds of the Chateau Lake Louise, another beauty, proud of its early 20th century history.
Back on the road, and it’s time to continue north past the astonishing Columbia Icefield, then turn off the highway and take the short road to the base of the Athabaska Glacier. You can rent ice cleats (夹板) and do some climbing or do a more pleasant snowmobile tour. Either way, you can enjoy endless beautiful sights.
Finally you’ll reach Jasper, the usual turning around the place for the Banff-Jasper loop (回路). It’s worth riding the Jasper Skytram, and be sure to visit the wonderful Jasper Park Lodge, also dating back to the 1920s. If you can have lunch there, do it. The restaurant has an adventurous menu and their wine list would put a smile on any visitor’s face.
小题1:According to the passage, The Pines is a ________.
A.place in which you can see many mobile homes
B.mountain where you can get a good view of the valley
C.town which happens to be near the Banff National park
D.restaurant where you can ask for some special kinds of food
小题2: What will probably happen when visitors come at the end of June?
A.They may have trouble finding a restaurant.
B.They may come across traffic jams.
C.They may travel more easily with cars.
D.They may do much more sightseeing.
小题3: Similar to the Chateau Lake Louise, ________.
A.the Banff National Park is to the west of Banff
B.the Columbia Icefield lies between Lake Louise and the Banff National Park
C.the Jasper Skytram has a history of more than 80 years
D.the Jasper Park Lodge was built in the 1920s
小题4:Besides the beautiful sights in Jasper Park Lodge, visitors to Jasper can enjoy themselves by ________.
A. taking the Jasper Skytram and eating in the restaurant
B. taking the Banff-Jasper loop and Jasper Skytram

For the person keeping a journal, whatever he experiences and wants to hold he can write down. But to get it down on paper begins another adventure. For he has to focus on what he has experienced, and to be able to say what, in fact, the experience is. What of it is new? What of it is remarkable because of associations in the memory it stirs up? It is a good or bad thing to have happened? And why, specifically? The questions multiply  (增多) themselves quickly. As one tries to find the words that best represent this discovery, the experience becomes even clearer in its shape and meaning.
Beyond the value of the journal as record, there is the value of the discipline it teaches. The journalist begins to pay closer attention to what happened to and around himself. He develops and sharpens his skills of observation. He learns the usefulness of languages as a means of representing what he sees, and gains skill and certainty in the expression of his experiences. To have given up one’s experience to words is to have begun marking out the limits and potential of its meaning. In the journal that meaning is developed and clarified (澄清、阐明) to oneself. When the intention of the development of that meaning is the consideration of another reader, the method of the journal redirects itself and it becomes the essay.
小题1:According to the author, keeping a journal is good for ________.
A.observation and expression
B.certainty and discipline
C.experience and adventure
D.consideration and development
小题2:By keeping a journal, one can ________.
A.develop the usefulness of language
B.develop his memory
C.clarify the consideration to everyone
D.have a thorough understanding of his experience
小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT correct?
A.The journalist can express what has happened.
B.A journal can serve as a record of the past happening.
C.The journalist must be able to observe closely.
D.Writing helps develop the consideration of others.
小题4:The passage is mainly about ________.
A.how to write a journal
B.the expressions of a journal
C.the values of keeping a journal
D.how to solve the problems in a journal

If you want to get the most out of the study of a language, you must also read for pleasure: novels, plays, travel books, and so on. And in reading books of this kind the important thing is to get on with the reading; to try to grasp what the writer is going to tell you in the book as a whole. This is impossible if you stop and think over the meaning of every single word which happens to be unfamiliar(不熟悉). You can not enjoy a story if you stop half a dozen times on every page in order to look up words in the dictionary. You may even prevent yourself from understanding the story as a whole by doing this.
When you are reading books of this kind, therefore, you will usually have to rely mainly on(依靠) the context (上下文) to help you. If you meet an unfamiliar word, do not let it take too much of your attention from the main thread(主线) of the story. In all probability(可能) you will meet the same word again a few pages later on in a slightly different context, and each time you see it that your understanding of it will become more exact.
小题1:To read for pleasure means _____________.
A.to take pleasure in reading
B.to be satisfied in reading book
C.to read such books as novels, plays, travel books, etc

A.to try to grasp the meaning of every sentence in the book
B.to try to catch the meaning of every word in the book
C.to try to understand all the writer is going to tell you
D.to try to understand the main idea of the book
小题3:、When you meet new words in reading such kinds of books, you’d better _________.
A.stop and look them up in a dictionaryB.stop and think them over

If you are in a town in a western country, you"ll often see people walking with their dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful animal in the world. But the reason why one keeps a dog has changed Once upon a time, a man met a dog and wanted it to help him in the fight against other animals, and he found that the dog listened to him and did what he told him to.
