Question

7．There are many places to go on safari（观赏野生动物）in Africa，but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys．
Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure，providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta．The camps have excellent horses，professional guides and lots of support workers．They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience．
The morning ride，when the guides take you to beautiful，shallow lakes full of water lilies，tends to be more active．It is unlike any other riding experience．With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face．It is truly exciting．You are very likely to come across large wild animals，too．On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants，giraffes and many other animals．The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though，as does your heart rate，as you move closer to them．
In the evening，rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace．With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink．Sedate though they are，rides at this time of day are still very impressive．As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses，the romance of Africa comes to life．
Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine．Looking back on your day，you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild．

Answer 1

分析 本文是说明文，主要介绍了非洲观赏野生动物的野营的项目，能给游客提供美妙和最让人激动的骑马经历，几个safari营地有着优良的马匹，专业的指导和很多人的服务人员，野营声望非常好，骑马的紧张与兴奋会让人心跳加速，与他们更亲近，晚上骑马很放松，惬意，令人印象深刻．

解答 1．C   考查代词指代． 根据上两句中谈到了"Several safaricamps"给游客提供的服务以及它们的特点，本句又说明它们因为给游客提供美妙的骑马的经历而闻名，因此They指的是上文提到的"Several safari camps"．故选C．
2．D   考查细节理解．根据第三段的第四、五、六句可知，作者认为坐在马背上近距离接触那些野生动物最让人激动．故选D．
3．B   考查词义猜测．根据上一句中的"a more relaxed and unhurried pace"可知，傍晚的旅程是缓慢的、平静的，故选B项．
4．B   考查写作手法．作者在第三段中先说了早上的旅程，第四段涉及晚上的旅程，尾段谈到回到营地，由此可知作者是按时间顺序写的．故选B．
