Rotorua canopy tour (树冠之旅):ziplines (滑索) are just the beginning
Have you ever imagined being a monkey and swinging freely from tree to tree in the forest? Now in Rotorua, New Zealand, our fantastic canopy tour makes your dream come true. This once-in-a-lifetime experience lets you fly across ziplines at speeds of up to 80 km/h. Starting from platforms 18 metres high in the trees, you’ll fly from one tree to the next. Between flights, you’ ll cross swing bridges and special walkways, discovering the beautiful treetop world.
Our ziplines were built in a very special forest in New Zealand. It is one of the country’s last ancient forests that remains untouched. After years of hard work to restore (修复) it, the forest is now alive with local birds. This area is incredibly wild, beautiful, and carefully protected.
Along the way, you may hand feed curious Robins, learn the secrets of the forest and meet the guides. Our guides are like superheroes, who keep you safe, make you laugh and love what they do. We keep our groups small to provide a more personal, safe, and engaging adventure for everyone.
Choose our canopy tour, and you will explore below the surface and high above the trees, learn about the past, and become part of the future. This is a truly unique adventure.

Have you heard of the term “crab mentality”? It ____45____ a self-centred and narrow-minded way of thinking. It means, “If I can’t have something, then you can’t have it either.”
People use the term to talk about those who try to stop others from achieving their dreams, often by criticizing (批评) them. As a general rule, if you say someone has “crab mentality”, you are saying something very negative about their ____46____.
The idea of “crab mentality” comes from the natural behavior of crabs. When they are trapped in a bucket, they prevent each other from escaping. If one crab tries to get out, the others will pull it back in. ____47____, they sometimes wait until it has almost escaped before pulling it down. Since all the crabs will face the same bad end, to be cooked and eaten, why don’t they help each other to freedom?
People with “crab mentality” do not want you to win or escape a bad situation. Instead, they will try to pull you back down. Their advice always seems ____48____, but it is actually designed to hold you back. For example, if you want to start a business, they’ll say, “That’s far too risky. You should just keep your safe job.” If you want to take part in a singing contest, they’ll say, “I heard the judges are really mean. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
Now that we know what a person with “crab mentality” is like, it’s worth asking: could we sometimes be the crab in someone else’s bucket? And how can we fight “crab mentality”?

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)
It was Tuesday night. On the balcony of my tenth-floor apartment, I looked at the sky with eager eyes, hoping to see a shooting star. “Shooting stars are lucky.” Grandma always says.
“Will I see a shooting star tonight, Grandma?”
“There are too many lights tonight, Judy,” Grandma said,“and I hear dreams calling.” She kissed my hair and put me to bed.
When I woke up the next morning, I smelled buttermilk biscuits. My favourite! “Your shooting stars came for breakfast” Grandma winked. In her hands was a plate of star-shaped biscuits, each with a lovely little tail My eyes went wide, and then they filled with something shining.
Then it was time for school. Before the third floor, the elevator stopped with a loud noise and went dark. My heart pounded so hard that I felt the beating in my ears. Grandma rang the bell for help. Then, in the darkness, she found my cold hand. She began to hum (哼曲子), and soon, my shaky voice joined hers. Grandma’s little song seemed to have magic power.
Before long, our neighbours helped us out. But I didn’t want to go to school any more.
“A stuck elevator doesn’t get to decide your day. Let’s go.” Grandma took my hand and walked out to school, humming our favourite song...
When I got home, Grandma was cooking in the kitchen. I told her about school.
“Sarah found a four-leaf clover. Ben got the last cookie from the cafeteria...Will I see a shooting star tonight?”
“The night isn’t over yet. Go to the balcony and wait.” Grandma smiled.
After dinner, I couldn’t find Grandma anywhere. I went to the balcony alone, still hoping to see a shooting star.
Suddenly, the dark sky was lit up. I nearly shouted out. A shooting star? But then— boom!—a fountain of gold sparks exploded right above me, dancing and falling slowly. Fireworks! Before I could catch my breath, another followed, a shining blue, then a red, painting the quiet night with bright colours.
My heart jumped with joy and wonder. When I turned around, I saw Grandma standing in the doorway, with an empty firework box in her left hand. “Do you like the shooting stars tonight?” She smiled.
At that very moment, I realized: I may not be “lucky” in a traditional way, but I know I AM truly lucky.
58. Where did Judy wait to see a shooting star on Tuesday night?

【58题详解】
根据“On the balcony of my tenth-floor apartment, I looked at the sky...”可知,Judy在十楼公寓的阳台上等待流星。故填On the balcony of her tenth-floor apartment.
【59题详解】

【62题详解】
根据“I saw Grandma standing in the doorway, with an empty firework box in her left hand.”可知,当Judy独自在阳台时,奶奶正在为她放烟花,制造“流星”。故填She was setting off fireworks to create “shooting stars” for Judy.

Have you ever imagined being a monkey and swinging freely from tree to tree in the forest? Now in Rotorua, New Zealand, our fantastic canopy tour makes your dream come true. This once-in-a-lifetime experience lets you fly across ziplines at speeds of up to 80 km/h. Starting from platforms 18 metres high in the trees, you’ll fly from one tree to the next. Between flights, you’ ll cross swing bridges and special walkways, discovering the beautiful treetop world.

Along the way, you may hand feed curious Robins, learn the secrets of the forest and meet the guides. Our guides are like superheroes, who keep you safe, make you laugh and love what they do. We keep our groups small to provide a more personal, safe, and engaging adventure for everyone.

Have you heard of the term “crab mentality”? It ____45____ a self-centred and narrow-minded way of thinking. It means, “If I can’t have something, then you can’t have it either.”
People use the term to talk about those who try to stop others from achieving their dreams, often by criticizing (批评) them. As a general rule, if you say someone has “crab mentality”, you are saying something very negative about their ____46____.
The idea of “crab mentality” comes from the natural behavior of crabs. When they are trapped in a bucket, they prevent each other from escaping. If one crab tries to get out, the others will pull it back in. ____47____, they sometimes wait until it has almost escaped before pulling it down. Since all the crabs will face the same bad end, to be cooked and eaten, why don’t they help each other to freedom?
People with “crab mentality” do not want you to win or escape a bad situation. Instead, they will try to pull you back down. Their advice always seems ____48____, but it is actually designed to hold you back. For example, if you want to start a business, they’ll say, “That’s far too risky. You should just keep your safe job.” If you want to take part in a singing contest, they’ll say, “I heard the judges are really mean. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
Now that we know what a person with “crab mentality” is like, it’s worth asking: could we sometimes be the crab in someone else’s bucket? And how can we fight “crab mentality”? The first step is to learn to ____49____ it in yourself. Once you are aware of your problem, you can actively find ways to overcome it. Next, make it a ____50____ to show happiness for someone’s success. When your friend gets a good grade or wins a prize, always say “You’ve earned it!” or “Let’s celebrate your success!” Your words can change your feelings. Soon, you’ll start to feel like their success is your success, too.

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)
It was Tuesday night. On the balcony of my tenth-floor apartment, I looked at the sky with eager eyes, hoping to see a shooting star. “Shooting stars are lucky.” Grandma always says.
“Will I see a shooting star tonight, Grandma?”
“There are too many lights tonight, Judy,” Grandma said,“and I hear dreams calling.” She kissed my hair and put me to bed.
When I woke up the next morning, I smelled buttermilk biscuits. My favourite! “Your shooting stars came for breakfast” Grandma winked. In her hands was a plate of star-shaped biscuits, each with a lovely little tail My eyes went wide, and then they filled with something shining.
Then it was time for school. Before the third floor, the elevator stopped with a loud noise and went dark. My heart pounded so hard that I felt the beating in my ears. Grandma rang the bell for help. Then, in the darkness, she found my cold hand. She began to hum (哼曲子), and soon, my shaky voice joined hers. Grandma’s little song seemed to have magic power.
Before long, our neighbours helped us out. But I didn’t want to go to school any more.
“A stuck elevator doesn’t get to decide your day. Let’s go.” Grandma took my hand and walked out to school, humming our favourite song...
When I got home, Grandma was cooking in the kitchen. I told her about school.
“Sarah found a four-leaf clover. Ben got the last cookie from the cafeteria...Will I see a shooting star tonight?”
“The night isn’t over yet Go to the balcony and wait.” Grandma smiled.
After dinner, I couldn’t find Grandma anywhere. I went to the balcony alone, still hoping to see a shooting star.
Suddenly, the dark sky was lit up. I nearly shouted out. A shooting star? But then— boom!—a fountain of gold sparks exploded right above me, dancing and falling slowly. Fireworks! Before I could catch my breath, another followed, a shining blue, then a red, painting the quiet night with bright colours.
My heart jumped with joy and wonder. When I turned around, I saw Grandma standing in the doorway, with an empty firework box in her left hand. “Do you like the shooting stars tonight?” She smiled.
At that very moment, I realized: I may not be “lucky” in a traditional way, but I know I AM truly lucky.
