Unit 3　Fascinating Parks单元提升强化练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A There are numerous amusement parks all over the world.A famous magazine,Amusement Today,does a survey among park lovers every year both in the US and overseas,based on which,“Top 5 List of the Best Amusement Parks in the World” has come out as follows: Disneyland,California Disneyland is a theme park in Anaheim,California,the US.More than 515 million guests have travelled to this American landmark from around the world since the park first opened to guests on 17 July,1955.The park is made up of many world-famous sections,such as Main Street,Adventure Land,New Orleans Square,and so on. Magic Kingdom,Disney World,Florida Magic Kingdom is a theme park within the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista,Florida,near Orlando that opened on 1 October,1971.It is the most famous theme park in Florida.The park’s design and attractions don’t make much difference from Disneyland Park in Anaheim. EPCOT,Disney World,Florida EPCOT is the second theme park built at the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando,Florida.The park opened on 1 October,1982,and was named EPCOT Centre from 1982 to 1993.It was the largest Disney theme park in the world until 1998,when Disney’s Animal Kingdom opened. Disney-MGM Studios,Florida MGM’s streets are the home to some great movie-themed attractions with a history of less than 30 years.With the addition of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and the Rock ‘N’ Roller Coaster,the park is now home to Disney World’s most thrilling rides. Universal Studios,Florida Go behind the scenes,beyond the screen and jump right into the action of your favourite movies at Universal Studios.Opened on 7 June,1990,the park’s theme is the entertainment industry,in particular movies and television. 1.Which park has the longest history? A.Magic Kingdom,Disney World,Florida. B.Disneyland,California. C.EPCOT,Disney World,Florida. D.Disney-MGM Studios,Florida. 2.Which of the following theme parks have similar attractions?

B Sustainable travel is an idea that many experts within the travel industry agree on.To continue enjoying this extraordinary world,both travelers and the travel industry must adapt to be more sustainable in actions.A report reads:“At this important moment in climate history,if there is a lack of actions,by 2040 many of the world’s favorite destinations will be forced to go virtual.” What is sustainable travel?It is about traveling in a way that reduces negative impact on the climate and environment,as well as the communities and people we visit.For many years,the attention around sustainable travel was based on reducing environmental pollution.While it is still important,there is now an even more pressing issue.With the growth of a privatized (私有化的) market that means local communities aren’t benefiting much from tourism as they should,change is needed more than ever.  To deal with the problem,we need to rethink how we see travel.Instead of just focusing on our own experiences,we should consider the needs of our hosts alongside our hopes for a fun-filled holiday.All it takes is a little thoughtful planning. One of the most effective ways you can make a difference when traveling is to reduce your carbon footprint (碳足迹).Wherever you choose to go,your transport will likely account for the majority of your CO2 emissions.By simple math,that means traveling shorter distances and in a way that uses less fuel (燃料) will make a big difference.And by doing so,you can visit more places and benefit more communities and people. And traveling out of peak season can be a more enriching experience.You’ll avoid the crowds at popular sights and find lower prices for hotels,restaurants and activities.For local people who work in tourism and are seasonal workers,the money they make outside of busy periods is much valued and needed. Another impactful way to be more sustainable is to stay in community-owned accommodation rather than chain hotels.It means the money you spend goes directly to local people who are serving you and need it most. 4.Why does the author mention the report in paragraph 1? A.To try to describe sustainable travel. B.To point out the main idea of the text. C.To show the urgency of sustainable travel. D.To present climate change’s effect on travel. 5.What do the words “an even more pressing issue” in paragraph 2 refer to? A.Climate change. B.Environmental pollution. C.Fast growth of tourism. D.Little attention on locals. 6.What does the author suggest a sustainable traveler do? A.Travel less. B.Choose long trips. C.Make a package tour. D.Try off-season travel. 7.Why are community-owned hotels recommended? A.They provide better service for guests. B.They are friendlier to the environment. C.They help local people earn more money. D.They are the backbone of the local economy. C Helen Thayer,one of the greatest explorers of the 20th century,loves challenges.She says,“I like to see what’s on the other side of the hill.” She has gone almost everywhere to do that.

Start small. Pick a manageable activity you can do soon—this weekend—close to home.　1　 Taking gradual steps teaches your brain that experience is not as bad as you expected and you can handle it.  　2　  Research from Harvard University shows that people who interpreted their nervousness about activities such as karaoke singing and public speaking as excitement enjoyed the experiences more and performed better than those who tried to press down their anxiety.This changed their threat mindset into an opportunity mindset. Use your imagination. 　3　 Say you want to go on a hike but are worried you’ll become lost,hurt or too exhausted to get home.Try to picture this.Next,visualize the best-case scene:the beautiful view,the fun you’ll have,your sense of accomplishment afterward.This exercise helps put fear in perspective.  Write yourself a letter. Think of it as an uplift talk.Start by addressing your fear.“I know you’re nervous.This is normal because you’re leaving your comfort zone.”　4　 The point is to ensure your feelings and remind yourself that,even though you feel nervous,you can handle this.  Relax about the outcome. If you could do this whole thing perfectly,it would not be the adventure you’re looking for.Remember:Whatever happens,it should make a good story.Imagining how fun it will be to tell your friends about your adventurous story later will help you stop complaining now.　5　  A.Picture the worst-case scene. B.Arouse your anxiety. C.This will break your inactivity and help you build up to bigger adventures. D.Shift how you view anxiety. E.And you’ll feel connected to others. F.This can boost your mood and change your thinking by making you feel more stressed. G.Then write about the skills you have and the past experiences that went well. Ⅲ.完形填空 Snow is a normal occurrence in Buffalo,New York.So when a snowstorm was 　1　,many people went to work as usual.　2　,this time the awful weather took many by surprise and they were unable to get home.Despite many 　3　 stories about the storm,there were also many stories about snow angels who opened their homes and businesses 　4　 for people who were stuck.  A group of ten tourists had an unexpected experience during the snowstorm when their van was 　5　 in the snow.The tourists were on their way to Washington D.C. and were 　6　 of the weather reports about the storm.But a nice couple came to their 　7　.Alexander Campagna 　8　 a knock on his door from two of the tourists asking to borrow shovels (铲子) to 　9　 the van that was stuck.Campagna and his wife asked the 　10　 travelers in and provided their unexpected guests with a place to sleep.  As the snowstorm struck Amherst,a suburb of Buffalo,on Friday afternoon,McDonald’s employees 　11　 people that were stuck on the street to come to the fast-food restaurant.“We accepted the 　12　 that we weren’t going home,so we might as well open up.” an employee said.“We 　13　 that someone might need help.” More than 50 people 　14　 the storm at the restaurant.  There’re countless others who are willing to go the extra mile.These snow angels performed acts of 　15　 that’ll be remembered forever.  1.A.revealed B.predicted C.claimed D.assumed
