Unit 2 Poems李仕才一、阅读理解。Millions of people visit Yosemite National Park every year to see the tall waterfalls and mountains.The mountains are a splendid sight when viewed from the valley floor.Lots of stores，hotels，and restaurants are needed to handle the crowds.Also，water，roads，and other service systems are part of the infrastructure(基础设施)that must be maintained.Unfortunately，these systems are starting to break down.Its not just in Yosemite but in national parks around the nation.Yosemite is thirty years old according to Dennis Calvin，a National Park Service worker.The park is not only old but worn out.Two or three times as many visitors come every year.That is too many visitors for the park to deal with.Four years ago a storm washed out a water pipeline in the Grand Canyon.The National Park Service had to send water trucks to provide water for the visitors.Last month pipes almost broke again and roads had to be closed for a while.Why hasnt the National Park Service kept up the park repairs？There is a lack of money.The United States has 378 monuments，parks，and wilderness areas.Between three and four billion dollars are needed for repairs.Yosemite is one national park that does have money for repairs.It has two hundred million dollars but cannot spend it any way it chooses.When the park workers started widening the road, they were forced to stop by the Sierra Club.The club claimed that the road work was damaging the Merced River that runs through the park.A Sierra Club lawyer, Julia Olson, feels that the infrastructure needs to be moved out of Yosemite.That way less pressure will be put on the already crowded park.1According to the text，the mountains in Yosemite look splendid when they are appreciated from _.Athe bottom of the valleysBthe top of the mountainsCthe

(convey) to the readers what the poet feels.答案：conveys由主句谓语动词is和从句中的feels可以判断用一般现在时。定语从句的先行词为a poem，为单数形式，故从句谓语动词也应用第三人称单数形式conveys，该从句含有“convey sth. to sb.”的结构。5She always exchanges words _ her

After in the classroom， volunteer took me to my dormitory. Altogether I had five roommates，two of arrived later.I got to know my new immediately. Although I was quite unwilling to say“Goodbye” to my father，/ he had to leave home. I suddenly realized I had grown up and that I had to look after and live independently.Not until then I know my senior high school life had begun.第一处：walkwalked。考查动词时态。根据“It was on a warm autumn day”可知，事情发生在过去，故用一般过去时。第二处：registeredregistering。考查动名词。after是介词，后跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语，故用动名词形式。第三处：thea。考查冠词。volunteer是可数名词，且第一次在文中出现，故用不定冠词修饰。第四处：whichwhom。考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，应用whom引导非限定性定语从句，在从句中作介词of的宾语，修饰先行词five roommates。第五处：roommateroommates。考查名词复数。由上文的“I had five roommates”可知，室友不止一个，故用复数形式。第六处：删除but或将but改为yet。考查连词。在英语中，although和but不能同时出现在一个句子中，故删除but。也可将but改为yet。补充：此处也可将Although删掉，但是语意上没有修改but好。第七处：leave后的to改为for。考查介词。leave for意为“前往”，为固定词组，符合语境。第八处：memyself。考查代词。与句子主语I呼应，应用反身代词，意为“照顾好自己”。第九处：then后加did。考查倒装句。not until置于句首时，常采用部分倒装，即把助动词放在主语之前。由时间状语then和下文的时态可知，此处用一般过去时，故用did。第十处：realreally。考查副词。修饰动词应用副词，故将real改为really。9
