Weve come up with 4 of the top picnic areas across the US.Cumberland Islands, GeorgiaJust a few hours south of Savannah, this national seashore is a picnic paradise. Its an unspoiled place in the Deep South with over 50 miles of hiking trails (小径). Covered in Spanish moss, the trails are lined with trees and since its still a rural area, the stars line up for a spectacular show at night and create the perfect evening starlit picnic opportunity.Grant Park, ChicagoIf you are looking for delicious food in Chicago, go for a taste of a 20-day, lake-front, foodie festival that happens in October each year.

Attached to it was a piece of paper with the Christmas wishes from a little girl,” Heiss wrote on his Facebook page.When he brought the list home to his wife, who speaks fluent Spanish, they determined that the little girl had asked for Enchantimals toys, clothes, art supplies and various other gifts. That's when Heiss set out to make the little girl's Christmas dreams come true. Heiss said he had attempted to send Christmas letters to Santa Claus via balloon when he was a kid but never received a response.Heiss sent a Facebook message on Wednesday to XENY, a radio station in Nogales, to see if it could help him track down the girl or her family. He later received a response from the station, which had determined the author of the letter was an 8-year-old girl named Dayami, and the station wanted to set up a meeting between the two on Thursday. “It just changed my entire day,” Heiss told the Washington Post. “Instead of going back to my office in Bisbee, I went with my wife to Walmart. “The couple bought almost everything on Dayami's list. They also brought a few gifts for Dayami's little sister, Ximena. They told the children they were “ ayudantes de Santa,” or Santa's helpers.Heiss,60, said the experience was very healing for him and his wife. Nine years ago,the couple's only son died. “ Being around children at Christmas time has been absent in our lives,” Heiss said. We now have friends for life. For a day, that border fence with its concertina wire melted away.28.How did Dayami send out her Christmas wishes?A. By calling Heiss.B. By attaching them to a balloon.C. By writing to a radio station.D. By sending a Facebook message.29.When did Heiss know what the girl exactly wanted?A. After the help of his wife.B. When he found the balloon.C. After their meeting in America.D. When he got a response from the radio station.30.What might make Heiss decide to fulfill the little girl's Christmas wishes?A. His son's will.B. The girls request for help.C. His similar unsuccessful experience.D. His desire to make friends with the girl.31.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The couple got out of the pain completely.B. The experience was a great relief to the couple.C. The couple would help more children from Mexico.D. There will be no border between countries one day.D A dove rested on a telephone wire. Ready for takeoff, it raises its wings, springs into the air and flaps away. This series of actions is so common that you probably do not pay it much attention. But University of Manchester bioinechanical engineer Ben Parslew does. He is trying to design robots that can jump like birds.Most conventional robots roll around on wheels, limiting mobility. There is a need for more agile robots that "can jump over obstacles in messy environments," Parslew says. To design such a machine, he turned to nature: "Birds are really good jumpers," he notes.The trouble is, when birds start to take off, they lean so far forward that they should tip over and fall onto their beaks(喙). Yet that does not happen. Parslew and his team used computer modeling to discover how birds avoid this fate. They discovered that birds twist their bodies slightly towards the back while accelerating into a jump. They also have flexible legs and toe joints, which prevent them from taking off briefly and immediately crashing into the ground. The result were published last October in Royal Society Open Science.Parslew thinks engineers can use this information to design robots that can not only jump well but also launch into flight more. efficiently. University of Southern California biomechanist Michael Habib, who was not involved in the study, says springs and levers(杠杆)enable more rapid acceleration-than wheels do. And many animals are masters of springs and levers.“If you can understand how that works,”Habib adds, “you can build a robot that's good at running around and good at flying, and it will also be good at taking off suddenly in all kinds of conditions and landing on a dime.”Parslew is now designing such a robot, as an alternative to wheeled rovers for exploring other planets.32.What is right about the dove mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. It takes off very beautifully.B. It catches everyone's attention.C. It gives Ben Parslew inspiration.D. It raises Ben Parslews curiosity.33.What can we-infer about the traditional robots?A. They can't jump over barriers.B. They can only move in one direction.C. They can't detect barriers before them.D. They can't adapt to complex environments.34.How does a bird avoid falling when taking off?A. By getting rid of gravity.B. By flapping its wings hard.C. By spinning its body backward.D. By jumping into the air quickly.35.What is the main idea of the text?A. Birds provide inspiration. for humans.B. New robots that can jump have been created.C. The development of robots benefits space exploreD. Studying birds' jumping helps scientist build better robots.第二节.七选五 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Helpful ways to deal with a know-it-all friendSometimes having a friend who thinks she knows everything and always offers her unsolicited(主动提供的) advice can really make one upset.
