Camp memories last forever!We make sure they are unforgettable!

Shadow Ridge Summer Camps offer so many exciting things for campers to do.Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program,at Shadow Ridge horses ARE the program!We are 100% horse from stable(马厩) management,nature walks,and track rides to bedroom furnishings.

Horses help us achieve many of our aims.Girls can learn to develop responsibility,self-confidence and personal connections in their lives while having fun.Using horses as a wonderful tool for education,our camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.

Imagine each girl having her very own horse to spend time with and a best friend to love and take care of.Each camper is responsible for a horse for the week.Our riding program provides a lot of riding and lesson time.Campers will learn how to take care of the horse and the tack(马具),as well as how to ride.Days are filled with horse-related activities to strengthen the connection between each girl and horse,as the girls learn to work safely around the horses.

At Shadow Ridge we try to create a loving,caring family atmosphere for our campers.We have “The Bunkhouse” (4 girls),the “Wranglers Roost” (4 girls),and “The Hideout” (2 girls) in our comfortable 177-year-old farm house.All meals are home cooked,offering delicious and healthy food for the hungry rider.

Our excellent activities create personalized memories of your child’s vacation.Each child will receive a camp T-shirt and a photo album.(usually 300-500 pictures) of their stay at camp.

Our camps are offered during June,July and August 2007,for small groups of girls aged 13-16 years,not only from Canada but also other parts of the world.

We will send you full program descriptions at your request.

What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To attract people to the camps.

B.To talk about camping experiences.

C.To describe the programs of the camps.

D.To explain the aims of the camps.

What do we know about the camp programs at Shadow Ridge?

A.Campers are required to wear camp T-shirts.

B.Horses play a central role in the activities.

C.Campers learn to cook food for themselves.

D.Horse lessons are offered all the year round.

The programs at Shadow Ridge mainly aim to help people ______.

A.understand horses better

B.enjoy a family atmosphere

C.have fun above other things

D.achieve an educational purpose

The passage is written mainly for ______.

A.horse riders                                           B.teenage girls

C.Canadian parents                                    D.international travelers

【小题1】A

【小题2】B

【小题3】D

【小题4】C


解析:

【小题1】这是一道主旨题。本文是个广告,介绍了一个夏令营的活动,目的是吸引孩子们参加这个夏令营。

【小题2】这是一道细节推断题。根据第二段“Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program,at Shadow Ridge horses ARE the program!”可以推断出这个夏令营的主题就是马。

【小题3】这是一道推断题。根据第三段“Using horses as a wonderful tool for education,our camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.”可以推断出这个夏令营利用马来使得参加者获得教育。

【小题4】这是一道推理题。根据倒数第二段“Our camps are offered during June,July and August 2007,for small groups of girls aged 13~16 years,not only from Canada but also other parts of the world.”可知夏令营主要面向13~16岁的女孩开放。干扰项是B项,本题问的是广告主要是面向谁,由于13-16岁的还是孩子,所以广告面向的是他们的家长。

Can people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.

The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science.

Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.

It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinned Europeans also have a mutation(变异) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.

However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is different in human and zebrafish genes.

Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun(太阳光紫外线), which can cause skin cancer.

But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vitamin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.

Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they probably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, said Cheng.

The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.

The passage mainly tells us that ________.

  A. people can not change their skin colour without any pain

  B. the new discovery could lead to search into ways to change skin colour safely

  C. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he liked

  D. scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene

It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

  A. nowadays people who want to change their skin colour have to suffer a lot from the damage caused by the chemical  treatment

  B. Europeans and Africans have the same gene

  C. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancer

  D. there are two kinds of genes

Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.

  A. find the different genes of humans’

  B. prove the humans’ skin colour is determined by the pigment gene

  C. find out the reason why the Africans’ skin colour is dark

  D. find out the ways of changing peopl’s skin colour

The writer’s attitude towards the discovery is ________.

  A. neutral                      B. negative                   C. positive                    D. indifferent
