Preserving dark skies is essential for all living things, and being a respectful astrotourist helps you play a part in protecting our planet for future generations — here’s how to do it responsibly. Where and when to go stargazing (观星) The ideal stargazing locations are far from city lights, with unblocked views of the horizon. Mountains, deserts and remote islands are good choices, thanks to their isolation, clear conditions and lack of light pollution. Winter is the best time of year because there are longer hours of darkness, and the air tends to be clearer. Whether it is worth joining a stargazing tour A guide can provide equipment and valuable information, helping you spot planets, constellations and deep-sky objects that you might otherwise miss. Some destinations, such as observatories in Chile or New Zealand, even offer night-time viewing sessions on professional-grade telescopes. What to bring on a stargazing trip Night-time temperatures can drop significantly, especially in desert or mountain locations. Dress in layers and bring a good pair of gloves and a hat, even in warmer climates. Though your eyes are all you really need, binoculars on a tripod can be surprisingly effective and cost-friendly for observing nearby objects like our moon and the rings of Saturn. Dark sky requirement Be respectful of other stargazers by using only red torch lights, which protect our night vision and protect wildlife. Don’t shine torches or phone screens at others — it can take 20 minutes for your eyes to re-adjust to the darkness after exposure to light. 1．Which is the ideal location for stargazing? A．The deserts in winter. B．The cities with less pollution. C．The mountains during the day. D．The remote islands in summer. 2．What are stargazers required to do? A．Wear fewer clothes. B．Bring professional cameras. C．Record observations in detail. D．Show respect to others and wildlife. 3．What is the purpose of the text? A．To promote stargazing tours. B．To compare stargazing locations. C．To guide responsible stargazing. D．To explain stargazing rules to beginners. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了如何负责任地进行观星活动，包括观星的理想地点和时间、是否值得参加观星旅行团、观星时应携带的物品以及观星时的注意事项等。 1．细节理解题。根据Where and when to go stargazing (观星)中“The ideal stargazing locations are far from city lights, with unblocked views of the horizon. Mountains, deserts and remote islands are good choices, thanks to their isolation, clear conditions and lack of light pollution. Winter is the best time of year because there are longer hours of darkness, and the air tends to be clearer. (理想的观星地点是远离城市灯光，地平线视野无阻的地方。由于偏远、条件清晰且缺乏光污染，山脉、沙漠和偏远岛屿都是不错的选择。冬季是一年中最好的时间，因为黑夜时间更长，空气往往更清澈)”可知，冬季的沙漠是理想的观星地点。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据Dark sky requirement中“Be respectful of other stargazers by using only red torch lights, which protect our night vision and protect wildlife.

It has both a roadway and a railway and is the longest suspension bridge (悬索桥) with two decks. The bridge is 4,518 feet long and 676 feet tall, which was designed by Mott MacDonald. The construction was begun in 1992 and completed in 1997. Tower Bridge The Tower Bridge is situated in London, which is a combination of the drawbridge (开合桥) and suspension bridge. Designed by Horace Jones and John Wolfe Barry, it was built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge stretches across the River Thames near the Tower of London. The drawbridge is drawn about 1,000 times a year. Golden Gate Bridge The Golden Gate Bridge joins the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, whose chief designer was Jbseph Strauss. The bridge has been named the most beautiful and most photographed bridge in the world. It is 8,981 feet long, 746 feet tall and 90 feet wide.

Preserving dark skies is essential for all living things, and being a respectful astrotourist helps you play a part in protecting our planet for future generations — here’s how to do it responsibly. Where and when to go stargazing (观星) The ideal stargazing locations are far from city lights, with unblocked views of the horizon. Mountains, deserts and remote islands are good choices, thanks to their isolation, clear conditions and lack of light pollution. Winter is the best time of year because there are longer hours of darkness, and the air tends to be clearer. Whether it is worth joining a stargazing tour A guide can provide equipment and valuable information, helping you spot planets, constellations and deep-sky objects that you might otherwise miss. Some destinations, such as observatories in Chile or New Zealand, even offer night-time viewing sessions on professional-grade telescopes. What to bring on a stargazing trip Night-time temperatures can drop significantly, especially in desert or mountain locations. Dress in layers and bring a good pair of gloves and a hat, even in warmer climates. Though your eyes are all you really need, binoculars on a tripod can be surprisingly effective and cost-friendly for observing nearby objects like our moon and the rings of Saturn. Dark sky requirement Be respectful of other stargazers by using only red torch lights, which protect our night vision and protect wildlife. Don’t shine torches or phone screens at others — it can take 20 minutes for your eyes to re-adjust to the darkness after exposure to light. 1．Which is the ideal location for stargazing? A．The deserts in winter. B．The cities with less pollution. C．The mountains during the day. D．The remote islands in summer. 2．What are stargazers required to do? A．Wear fewer clothes. B．Bring professional cameras. C．Record observations in detail. D．Show respect to others and wildlife. 3．What is the purpose of the text? A．To promote stargazing tours. B．To compare stargazing locations. C．To guide responsible stargazing. D．To explain stargazing rules to beginners. Passage 2 （2025高二下·云南玉溪·期末） There are over 400 heritage sites across the UK.
