Different types of maps have different uses. Tourist maps, for example, have signs to show places of interest in an area. When tourists read these maps, it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places. Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long journeys. Different types of roads are given different numbers. For example, if you want to go to Wood Green, you just follow No. 621 Road and keep looking at the road signs. Distribution maps (分布图) use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, where different languages are spoken, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.

C Frederick Law Olmsted Frederick Law Olmsted was born on April 26, 1822, and grew to become nineteenth-century America’s number one landscape (景观) architect. Bad eyesight forced him to abandon his plans to attend university, so he had to choose a new course for his life. As a boy in Hartford, Connecticut, he had always admired natural beauty. So, instead of studying academics, he decided to focus on engineering and farming. In the 1850s, he ended up in charge of creating Central Park in New York City. Olmsted and a partner entered a design contest for a new park and won with a design patterned after gardens and natural landscapes that Olmsted had seen and admired around the world. To create the new park, they removed nearly 5 million cubic yards of dirt, blew up rock with 260 tons of gunpowder, and planted 270,000 trees and shrubs. In 1864, New Yorkers could have walks along wooded paths, paddle a boat around the lake, or people-watch from the hills. Today, many people cannot imagine New York City without its Central Park. Maybe it was watching those people enjoy his creation that inspired Olmsted. He became one of the first members of designing committee of Yosemite National Park because he was determined to protect its breathtaking beauty. He did the same for Niagara Falls and helped turn it into a public reserve. Working well into his seventies, Olmsted designed more parks and even an entire Chicago suburb (郊区), Riverside. And to think that bad eyesight led him to create such beautiful places! 54. Which of the following shows what Olmsted did in time order? a. He studied engineering and farming. b. He took charge of creating Central Park. c. He gave up his plans to go to university. d. He took part in the designing of Yosemite National Park. e. He designed a Chicago suburb. A. a-c-b-d-e B. a-c-d-e-b C. c-a-b-d-e c-a-e-b-d 55. Which statement would Frederick Law Olmsted agree to? A. It is not necessary for young people to go to university. B. Money provided for public parks should be reduced. C. Beauty of the natural land should be protected. D. It is a waste of time entering design contests. 56. We can infer from the passage that ______. A. Olmsted designed the breathtaking Niagara Falls B. Olmsted traveled a lot before designing Central Park C. Olmsted’s poor eyesight contributed to his great creations D. Olmsted majored in engineering and farming in university D D.
Train-spotting Many people around the world have seen Danny Boyle’s movie Trainspotting starring Ewan McGregor, but how many of us really know what train-spotting is all about? Now this is not considered cool in town and the word “train-spotter” in Britain is related to “geek” or “nerd” (someone who seems very ridiculous). But is this reputation really deserved? First of all, let’s see what train spotting is. It is said that there are some 100,000 train spotters in the UK. Exactly as the title suggests, they spot trains, that is, they stand in train stations, look at the number of each train that leaves and arrives and write it down. The eventual aim is to have seen every train in the country. Being crazy about railways and trains is not modern and it dates back to 1804. As the number of trains grew and they got faster and faster, so did the interest in them grow. Is this any stranger than people who love cars? So, what do you need to be a train-spotter? Well, all you really need is a pen or pencil and a notebook to write down the train numbers. Other equipment includes hot tea in a thermos, a camera and some sandwiches for those long afternoons spent on train platforms when you don’t want to risk the delights of railway station food. It’s interesting to note that despite the “bad name” of train-spotting, there have been famous railway lovers in history, such as Alfred Hitchcock, who filmed them regularly, especially The 39 Steps. There is evidence, too, that being a train-spotter is not necessarily a strange phenomenon in Britain. One glance at the US train stations should be enough to convince you that train-spotters there are alive and well. In America, they try to call rail lovers “train-fans” and talk of “train-fanning”. Don’t let this fool you—these people are train spotters and there are a lot of them. Each month, two million pages are visited on the website TrainWeb.org. 57. According to the author, what is train-spotting? A. A way of pastime. C. A strange phenomenon. B. A type of sport. D. A mental problem. 58. What do train-spotters usually do? A. They keep a careful track of every train. B. They number each railway engine they view. C. They count the trains passing in front of them. D. They produce films about trains with video cameras. 59. The author writes the article to ______. A. introduce some famous train-spotters B. encourage readers to do more train-spotting C. try to present a true picture of train-spotting D. describe the necessary equipment in train-spotting 60. What do we learn from the passage? A. Train-spotters are much stranger than car lovers. B. Train-spotting relates to a dangerous lifestyle.
