五、阅读理解(每小题2分,共10分)
Our planet has many amazing places, and one of them is Vinicunca in Peru. Known as the Rainbow Mountain, it is famous for its bright lines of red, yellow, green, and purple. It is part of the Andes Mountains, the longest mountain range(山脉) on earth. At 5,200 meters tall, the Rainbow Mountain makes visitors feel like stepping into a magical world!
The colorful lines come from different rocks under the ground. For example, iron(铁) in the rocks turns red when it meets air, and sulfur(硫磺) makes the bright yellow lines. Over thousands of years, wind and rain slowly washed away dirt and ice, showing these colorful parts. Scientists say nature is like an artist! The colors also change with the weather — they look bright in sunlight and softer on cloudy days.
Before 2015, the Rainbow Mountain was covered in ice. When the ice turned into water because of warmer weather, the colors became perceptible. Now, many travelers visit it every year. But tourism can harm the mountain. To protect it, local villagers control the number of visitors and ask everyone to follow the rules, like taking rubbish home.
The Rainbow Mountain reminds us that the earth’s wonders are both beautiful and easily harmed. Thus, everyone’s action matters: treating nature with respect, supporting(支持) local guides, and sharing its story can all help ensure this colorful wonder remains for the future.

A.It has three bright colorful lines.
B.It is the highest mountain range on earth.
C.Its color becomes brighter and brighter each year.
