1．Ifyouwanttotakeanundergroundjourney,whichplaceisthebestchoice?
A．Pole’sCavern.B．PavilionGardens.
C．BuxtonMuseum.D．GreenManGallery.
A [细节理解题。
根据题干信息undergroundjourney，定位Highenergy中的“...journeybeneaththeearthatPoole’sCavern”可知，在Poole’sCavern，可以在地下旅行，也就是乘坐地铁旅行。
所以如果你想乘地铁旅行，Poole’sCavern是你最好的选择。
]
[错项分析] 本题的关键是抓住题干信息undergroundjourney和文中journeybeneaththeearth的对应关系。
其他选项没有undergroundjourney的描述。

A．ridesinsmalltrains
B．coursesinmodernarts

C [细节理解题。
由Highminded中的“Buxtonisjustifiablyproudofitsculturallifeandyouwillfindmuchtosuitalltasteswithart，music，opera，andtheperformingartsatBuxtonOperaHouse&PavilionArtsCenterandGreenManGallery”可知，Buxton以其丰富的文化生活而自豪，在BuxtonOperaHouse&PavilionArtsCenterandGreenManGallery，您将发现许多适合各种品味的艺术、音乐、歌剧和表演艺术。
所以BuxtonOperaHouse&PavilionArtsCenter特别是因为它提供艺术和文化活动。
]
[错项分析] 本题其实是在考查该段落的主题内容，总结出全段主要内容也就理解了所提供的特色服务。
其他三项都不是在本段提到的内容。
A．ridesinsmalltrains乘小火车；B．coursesinmodernarts现代艺术课程；D．basiccoursesinhorseriding骑马基础课程。

[分析] 本文为记叙文。
讲述了二十世纪六十年代BobChristiansen在研究黄石公园的火山历史时，奇怪地发现到处看不到火山的影子，原来，这儿的火山并不是像我们大部分人想象的那种圆锥体形状的高耸的样子，而是一个巨大的洞，这个洞太大了以至于从地面上的任何地方都看不见。
3．WhatpuzzledChristiansenwhenhewasstudyingYellowstone?
A．Itscomplicatedgeographicalfeatures.
B．Itsever-lastinginfluenceontourism.
C．Themysterioushistoryofthepark.
D．Theexactlocationofthevolcano.
D [细节理解题。
根据题干信息puzzled定位第一段，在根据段中句子whilestudyingthevolcanichistoryofYellowstoneNationalPark，BobChristiansenbecamepuzzledaboutsomethingthat，oddly，hadnottroubledanyonebefore:
hecouldn’tfindthepark’svolcano.可知，他困惑的是到处看不到火山。
]
[错项分析] 其他选项都跟关键词puzzle没有关系。
A．Itscomplicatedgeographicalfeatures.复杂的地理特色；B．Itsever-lastinginfluenceontourism.对旅游业持久的影响；C．Themysterioushistoryofthepark.这个公园神秘的历史。
4．Whatdoesthesecond-paragraphmainlytalkabout?
A．Theshapesofvolcanoes.
B．Theimpactsofvolcanoes.
C．Theactivitiesofvolcanoes.
D．Theheightsofvolcanoes.
A [段落主旨大意题。
本段讲述了两种形状的火山，一种是通常人们所理解的由火山岩浆堆积形成的圆锥体。
还有一种极具爆发力的火山，它们会在一个大裂缝中爆裂，留下一个巨大的洞。
]
[错项分析] 其他选项无法概括本段介绍的两种类型的火山。
B．Theimpactsofvolcanoes.火山的影响；C．Theactivitiesofvolcanoes.火山的活动；D．Theheightsofvolcanoes.火山的高度。
5．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“blow-up”inthelastparagraphmostprobablymean?
A．Hot-airballoon.B．Digitalcamera.
C．Bigphotograph.D．Bird’sview.
C [词义猜测题。
根据第三段第一句JustatthistimeNASAdecidedtotestsomenewhigh-altitudecamerasbytakingphotographsofYellowstone.Athoughtfulofficialpassedonsomeofthecopiestotheparkauthoritiesontheassumptionthattheymightmakeaniceblow-upforoneofthevisitors’centers.可知，美国国家航空和宇宙航行局为测试一些新的高海拔照相机而拍摄了黄石公园的照片。
一位深思熟虑的官员把其中的一些照片副本转交给了公园管理部门，认为他们可能会将其放大以供一个游客中心展示。
故可知，此处意为将照片放大。
]
[错项分析] 本题的关键是抓住photos和visitorscenter两个信息，photo是从空中拍摄的黄石公园的照片，放在visitorscenter展览肯定要放大后才有效果，其他选项不符合此意。
A．Hot-airballoon热气球；B．Digitalcamera.数码相机；D．Bird’sview.鸟瞰。
C
