【解析】

试题分析:本文通过叙述一位游客在美国自助餐厅就餐的事情阐述了美国社会的价值观。

【1】settling 考查动名词用法。在介词的后面通常使用名词或者动名词做宾语。句意:在一个岛上定居以后,他去了一家咖啡店吃东西。

【2】to eat 考查不定式用法。本句中不定式充当定语修饰名词something,不定式含有未来的意思。句意:在一个岛上定居以后,他去了一家咖啡店吃东西。

【3】 Finally 考查副词。本句中副词finally在句中充当时间状语。句意:最后,一个拿着满满食物的托盘的妇女坐到了他的对面并告诉他这个咖啡店是如何运营的。

【4】how 考查连词。本句是一个how引导的宾语从句,充当动词tell的宾语,句意:一个拿着满满食物的托盘的妇女坐到了他的对面并告诉他这个咖啡店是如何运营的。从下文的描述可知这是一家经营自助餐的饭店。

【5】the 考查冠词。在两头中的另外一头使用at the other end在…另外一头,定冠词the表示特指。句意:在另外一边他们会告诉你要付多少钱。

【6】 surprised 考查形容词。动词surprise的过去分词surprised感到惊讶的,通常修饰人或者与人有关的事物。本句中surprised是对主语I的情况进行的说明。

【7】but 考查连词。句意:只要你愿意付钱,你可以得到你想要的一切,甚至是成功。但是如果你想等着别人给你,那你什么也得不到。根据句意可知上下文之间是转折关系,所以使用but。

【8】 yourself 考查反身代词。本句中反身代词yourself充当状语,表示强调。句意:你得自己站起来,自己去拿想要的东西。

【9】 is 考查系动词和时态。句意:你唯一能做的事情是控制你的态度。本句的主语是the only thing you can do这是一个单数名词,所以谓语动词也使用单数形式。最后一段属于评论性的话,所以使用一般现在时。

【10】satisfaction 考查名词。句意:一旦你达到了生活中那一点,幸福和满足就不会太远了。

【题目】Nearly 60 million visitors flooded to the 384 national parks across America every year. And you won’t have to wander far from home to enjoy one of these national treasures, with Michigan’s Isle Royale National Park nearby.

Located 56 miles from Copper Harbor on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, the park remains_______that can only be reached by tour boat. With the exception of the Rock Harbor Lodge, which offers both rooms with private baths and accommodations in the form of small cottages, the 572,000 acres that make up the 45-mile-long park are rough, threaded with hiking paths that lead to tents-only campsites. You are likely to see a deer crossing mist-covered ponds in search of breakfast, gaze bald eagles flying overhead, or hear a beaver(河狸) clapping its tail on the water. If you are especially lucky, you might even glimpse a grey wolf, nearly dying out from hunting on the mainland.

Plenty of hiking paths open the area to exploration. The 4-mile Stroll Path winds through various trees and offers a tour of the island’s history, including prehistoric Indian mines. The Jungle Path leads to Scoville Point——a perfect picnic spot surrounded on three sides by the shining waters of Lake Superior.

You can also rent a boat at the park’s service center and row down the shore to the Rock Harbor Lighthouse. Here park’s service employees use nets to show how lake fishes used to be caught by the original local people. Their catch ends up on the dinner menu at the Rock Harbor Lodge.

The park is open from mid-April through October; Rock Harbor Lodge is open from Memorial Day weekend until just after Labor Day.
