Question

 

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.

Answer 1

【答案】

1.A

解析: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。

2.B

解析: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。

3.D

解析: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。

4.C

解析: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。
