A Hike with Explosive Views Adapted from National Geographic USA-March 2025 Volcán de Fuego, a geological marvel in Guatemala, is best glimpsed from the heights of its neighbor, the currently inactive Volcn de Acatenango, which, at 13，045 feet, is the third highest mountain in Guatemala. The uphill hike moves visitors from lush coffee plantations through the cloud forests, up to the otherworldly terrain near the peak, where the reward is an incredible view as the earth rumbles underfoot. The most natural starting point for the journey is in the small, cobblestoned city of Antigua, which functioned as Guatemala's capital until the late 18th century. Now it is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site to protect its rich Spanish architectural legacy. At 5，000 feet above sea level, the city offers the adventurer a place to get used to the altitude and enjoy some of the local cuisine—from a hearty bowl of xicuitl soup (墨西哥传统汤：鲜花汤) to the mouthwatering steak. Then, the hike to base camp on Acatenango takes five to six hours on average, depending on pace and weather conditions. The final stretch of the climb to Acatenango's summit must be done on foot. Therefore, many travelers opt for overnighting at base camp before making the final push. Travelers who venture up the summit and stay overnight should be prepared for a dramatic temperature range on account of the hike's 5，000-foot elevation gain. Daytime highs can reach beyond 68°F, while at night, the temperature can fall below freezing. The journey up Acatenango to view Fuego, while demanding, has become one of the most popular hikes in Central America for good reason. Visitors can take in the spectacular sights and sounds of lava gurgling on Fuego. And for those who make the overnight trip with a guide, the payoff comes in the form of a well-earned glass of wine, along with a sky lit by stars and lava. 1．geological marvel 地质奇观 2．Guatemala 危地马拉 3．glimpse v．瞥见 4．currently adv.当前；目前 5．uphill adj.上坡的；费力的 6．lush adj.茂盛的 7．otherworldly adj.超世俗的 8．terrain n．地形；地势；地带 9．rumble v．发出隆隆声 10．cobblestoned adj.铺有鹅卵石的 11．be listed as 被列为 12．legacy n．遗产 13．altitude n．海拔；高度 14．mouthwatering adj.令人垂涎的；诱人的 15．stretch (熟词生义) n．一段(时间或路程) 16．opt for 选择 17．venture v．冒险；敢于 18．on account of由于 19．demanding adj.要求高的；费力的 20．take in 欣赏；理解 21．spectacular adj.壮观的 22．lava n．岩浆 23．in the form of...以……的形式 　 答案：1.place　2.neighbor　3.starting　4.demanding Volcán de Fuego in Guatemala can be best seen from Volcán de Acatenango. The hike 1.starts from Antigua, with a 5-to 6-hour trek to 2.base camp. If staying overnight on the summit, travelers should prepare for temperature changes. Though demanding, the hike is very 3.popular for its great view. 1.Volcán de Fuego, a geological marvel in Guatemala, is best glimpsed from the heights of its neighbor, the currently inactive Volcán de Acatenango, which, at 13，045 feet, is the third highest mountain in Guatemala.

It was early in the spring; there had been a little frost④ in the night, and a light mist⑤ still hung over the woods and meadows. I and the other colts were feeding⑥ at the lower part of the field when⑦ we heard, quite in the distance, what⑧ sounded like the cry of dogs. The oldest of the colts raised his head and said, “There are the hounds (猎犬)！” and immediately cantered (慢跑) off, followed by the rest of us to the upper part of the field, where⑨ we could look over the hedge (树篱) and see several fields beyond. My mother and an old riding horse of our master's were also standing near, and seemed to know all about it. “They have found a hare (兔子)，” said my mother, “and if they come this way we shall see the hunt.” And soon the dogs were all tearing down⑩ the field of young wheat⑪ next to ours. I never heard such a noise. They did not bark⑫， nor howl⑬， but kept on a “yo! yo, o, o! yo! yo, o, o！” at the top of their voices. After them came a number of⑭ men on horseback⑮， some of them in green coats⑯， all galloping (飞奔) as fast as they could. The old horse snorted (喷鼻息) and looked eagerly after them, and we young colts wanted to be galloping with them, but they were soon away into the fields lower down. The dogs left off⑰ barking, and ran about every way with their noses to the ground⑱. “They have lost the scent⑲，” said the old horse; “perhaps the hare will get off⑳.” “What hare？” I said. “Oh! I don't know what hare; likely enough it may be one of our own hares out of the woods; any hare they can find will do for the dogs and men to run after㉑；” and before long㉒ the dogs began their “yo! yo, o, o！” again, and back they came altogether at full speed㉓， making㉔ straight for our meadow at the part where the high bank and hedge overhang the brook. “Now we shall see the hare，” said my mother; and just then a hare wild with fright㉕ rushed by and made for the woods. On came the dogs; they burst㉖ over the bank, leaped the stream, and came㉗ dashing across the field followed by the huntsmen. Six or eight men leaped their horses clean over, close upon the dogs. The hare tried to get through the fence; it was too thick, and she turned sharp round㉘ to make for the road, but it was too late; the dogs were upon her with their wild cries; we heard one shriek (尖叫), and that was the end of her. It was astonishing. But when I looked over the bank, there was a sad sight; two fine horses were down, one was struggling in the stream, and the other was groaning (呻吟) on the grass. One of the riders was getting out of the water covered㉙ with mud, while㉚ the other lay quite still. “His neck is broken，” said my mother. “And serve him right㉛， too，” said one of the colts. But my mother did not join with us. ①此处为before引导的时间状语从句。 ②circumstance n. 情况 ③此处为which引导的定语从句，which在从句中作宾语。 ④frost n. 霜 ⑤mist n. 薄雾 ⑥feed v. 进食 ⑦此处为“be doing...when...”句型，意为“正在做……这时……”。 ⑧此处为what引导的宾语从句。 ⑨此处为where引导的定语从句，where在从句中作状语。 ⑩tear down 拆毁 ⑪wheat n. 小麦 ⑫bark v. 犬吠 ⑬howl v. 嚎叫 ⑭a number of 许多 ⑮此处为介词短语置于句首引起的完全倒装。 ⑯此处为独立主格结构。 ⑰leave off 终止 ⑱此处为with复合结构。 ⑲scent n. 气味 ⑳get off 逃脱 ㉑run after 追赶 ㉒before long 不久之后 ㉓at full speed 飞速 ㉔此处为v.-ing形式作状语。 ㉕wild with fright 吓得发狂 ㉖burst [熟词生义] v．猛冲 ㉗此处为动词的联动。 ㉘turn sharp round 急转弯 ㉙此处为v.-ed形式作状语。 ㉚此处while作并列连词，表转折。 ㉛serve sb. right 活该 ㉜此处为though引导的让步状语从句。 ㉝make out 理解 ㉞此处为why引导的宾语从句。 ㉟spoil v. 糟蹋 ㊱此处为同位语。 ㊲pride n. 骄傲 ㊳此处为that引导的定语从句，that在从句中作主语。 ㊴dreadful adj. 可怕的 ㊵toll v. 鸣(丧钟) She said, “Though㉜ I have seen and heard a great deal, I never yet could make out㉝ why㉞ men are so fond of this sport; they often hurt themselves, often spoil㉟ good horses, and tear up the fields, just for a hare or a fox, or a stag (雄鹿), which they could get more easily some other way; but we are only horses, and don't know.” My master was the first to help. There was no noise now; even the dogs were quiet, and seemed to know that something was wrong. They carried him to our master's house. I heard afterward that it was young George Gordon, the squire's (乡绅) only son, a fine, tall young man㊱， and the pride㊲ of his family. There was now riding off in all directions to the doctor's, to the farrier's (蹄铁工), and no doubt to Squire Gordon's, to let him know about his son. When Mr. Bond, the farrier, came to look at the black horse that㊳ lay groaning on the grass, he shook his head because there was no hope—one of his legs was broken. Then someone ran to our master's house and came back with a gun; later there was a loud bang (巨响) and a dreadful㊴ shriek, and then all was silent; the black horse moved no more. My mother seemed much troubled, saying she never would go to that part of the field. Not many days after, we heard the church-bell tolling㊵ for a long time. They were carrying young Gordon to the churchyard to bury him. He would never ride again. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
