Hearst Castle is a palatial(宫殿式) park on the central California coast and a National Historic Landmark. It was designed by architect Julia Morgan for William Randolph Hearst from 1919 until 1947. In 1957, the Hearst Corporation donated the fortune to the state of California. Since that time it has been maintained as a state historic park where the estate and its considerable collection of art and antiques are open for public tours. In spite of its location far from any urban center, the site attracts roughly one million visitors every year.

Guided Tours

Tour One is recommended for first time visitor. It now includes the movie, Hearst Castle Building the Dream.

Tour Two gives visitors a closer look at the main house's upper floors, Mr. Hearst's private suite, the libraries, and the kitchen.

Tour Three looks at the Castle's North Wing, guest rooms and guest house Casa Del Monte.

Tour Four features the impressive gardens and grounds, the largest guesthouse, the wine basement, and the Hidden Terrace.

The evening tour is a special tour that allows visitors to experience the Castle at night as one of the Hearst's own visitors might have.

Thousands of hungry birds left the countryside of Britain in the bitter winter to find food and warmth in urban gardens. The move included species such as the redwing and the fieldfare, almost unknown outside rural areas

The hard situation of farmland birds has been revealed in the latest survey of bird populations from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds released today.

The redwing has an obvious stripe over the eye and a red flash on the flanks (侧翼), while the fieldfare has a grey head, a peach under?belly, and a distinctive dark band on the tail.

Graham Madge, the society's spokesman, says, “For many urban birdwatchers the sight of these striking species is a real treat. Many people have never imagined there being such an amazing chance.”

“Frozen ground prevented them from getting food in the countryside and they have been saved from starvation in towns，” he added.

He says the unusual sight this year somewhat tempered the frustration felt at the suffering of small garden birds such as robins and wrens. These birds are sensitive to cold and must eat almost continuously to stay alive. Data from people who took part in the society's Big Garden Birdwatch recorded sightings in 280，000 gardens during the last weekend of January, with the goldcrest down 75 percent, the long?tailed tit down 27 percent, and the coal tit down 20 percent. The study highlighted the need for food to be left out for birds during winter.

The redwing and the fieldfare are relatively unknown outside the eastern part of the country. The research shows, however, that they moved to the other side of the country where the climate is generally mild in winter and that many for the first time have reached Cornwall and Isles of Scilly. The number of redwing sightings was up 185 percent, those of the fieldfare 73, and of the yellowhammer 68.

Another surprise garden “guest” this year was the blackcap. This robin?sized, silver?grey bird was rare in Britain 50 years ago, but increasing numbers now arrive each year from Germany and Austria.

1.How did the urban birdwatchers probably feel when seeing the hungry birds?

A. Excited. B. Worried.

C. Annoyed. D. Motivated.

2.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “tempered”？

A. Prevented. B. Relieved.

C. Explained. D. Increased.

3.According to the passage, Cornwall is perhaps ________．

A. a village in eastern Britain

B. a city in western Britain

C. a village in western Britain

D. a city in eastern Britain

4.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. The tough living conditions of some British birds.

B. The various species of Britain's garden birds.

C. The changes of some bird's population in Britain.

D. Unusual bird visitors in Britain's urban gardens.
