阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

  After three years on horseback, Tim Cope has followed the route of Genghis Khan(成吉思汗)and other Asian nomads(游牧民族)who crossed into Europe over the centuries.

  The 28-year-old Australian arrived in Hungary on Saturday, Sept.22, ending a 6200-mile travel through Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Southern Russia and Ukraine.Surrounded by his traveling companions-his dog and three horses, Cope said, “I'm very happy to be here.Sometimes I didn't think I would ever arrive.”

  Cope was inspired to make the horseback journey during a bicycle trip from Moscow to Beijing.Trying to push his bike through the sands of the Gobi Desert, Cope watched in frustration as nomad horsemen appeared out of nowhere and disappeared over the horizon.

  That got him interested in nomad life and the journey by ancient Asian groups.He set off from Mongolia in 2004 for a trip he thought would take 18 months.It ended up taking three years, and in late 2006, he had to return to Australia for several months when his father died in a car crash.

  Cope quickly learned to trust the wisdom of locals.“In Mongolia, the nomads always told me that wolves were the most dangerous things and I didn't believe them at first.” he said.Then one night he found himself surrounded by wolves.“When you hear that cry alone at night in the forest, it's one of the most frightening sounds you'll ever hear, ” Cope said.“After that I took their advice and threw firecrackers out my tent door every night to keep the wolves away.”

  Cope says he probably spent about half of his nights in his tent and the rest in farm houses and huts of strangers along the way.“In Kazakhstan, they believe that if you invite a guest, luck will fly into your house.”

  Cope wants to write a book and shoot a film about his voyage, and is already imagining future adventures in northwest China and the Middle East.

  “It's my way of life.It was not just a trip, ” Cope said.“I'll be back in the saddle(马鞍) as soon as I can.”

It was Mother’s Day, the day we do everything to celebrate for mothers. But I’ll   21         that the Sunday in 1996 was bitter sweet for me. As a single mother I tended to think of my shortcomings — how many evenings I couldn’t spend with my children, and how many things I couldn’t   22        my waitress’ salary to buy.

    But that great kids I had! My daughter Maria was a senior in college, and Denny was home visiting from his freshman year at Harvard University. They were       23         impolite enough to complain, but there was so much more I wished I had done for them. I just hoped they  24         .

    As I walked into the kitchen quietly to start breakfast, I was greeted by a vase  25        a dozen red roses. When had Denny possibly slipped down to leave them? But even their delicate beauty was over shadowed by the note sitting beside them, in the quick, manly  26         of an eighteen-year-old. It was about a story that happened between Denny and me long ago. It read:

    She took a day off from her busy  27         to take the boy to see his hero at the stadium. It took 3.5 hours just to get there, and they had to be there early so he could see his hero take batting practice. On their arrival, she took her hard-earned money to buy an overpriced T-shirt on which was  28          his hero making a diving catch. After the game, of course he had to get his hero’s signature, so she stayed with the little boy until one o’clock in the morning… It took me long enough to   29        , but I finally know who the  30       hero is. Mom, I love you!

    And suddenly, it was a happy Mother’s Day, after all.

23. A. merely                   B. usually         C. never                D. often

24. A. supported           B. understood      C. approved             D. disgusted

25. A. including      B. containing            C. possessing     D. pinning

26. A. handwriting      B. description    C. tone                 D. scratch

27. A. event               B. content          C. schedule      D. circumstance

  All Ric O Barry wants is to stop the dolphin-killing, so he is headed to this seaside Japanese town, Taiji.The American activist, who is the star of a new award-winning documentary that portrays the dolphin-killing here, got an unwelcome reception when he showed up here this week for the start of the annual hunt.

  His movie, The Cove(海豚湾), directed by National Geographic photographer Louie Psihoyos, was released in the United States a month ago but has not yet to come out in Japan.

  Scenes in the film, some of which were shot secretly, show fishermen banging on metal poles stuck in the water to create a wall of sound that scares the dolphins-which have supersensitive sonar(声纳系统)-and sends them fleeing into a cove.

  There, the fishermen sometimes pick a few to be sold for aquarium shows, for as much as $150,000.They kill the others, spearing(刺)the animals repeatedly until the water turns red.The meat from one dolphin is worth about 50,000 yen, and is sold at supermarkets across Japan.

  Greenpeace and other groups have tried to stop the hunt for years.Activists hope The Cove will bring the issue to more people internationally-and eventually in Japan.

  Already, the Australian town of Broome dropped its 28-year sister-city relationship with Taiji last month, partly because of the movie.

  “Some regions have a tradition of eating dolphin meat,” said fisheries official Toshinori Uoya.“Dolphin-killing may be negative for our international image, but it is not something orders can stop.”

  The town government in Taiji-which has made whales and dolphins its trademark-refused to comment about The Cove, or the growing international criticism against dolphin-killing.

  Many in Taiji take the dolphin hunt for granted as part of everyday life.They are defensive about The Cove, seeing themselves as powerless victims of overseas pressure to end a simple and honest way of making a living.

  The 60-year-old multi-millionaire from New York was sitting on board a Russian spaceship.He was on a journey to the International Space Station.It might have been a routine(常规的)trip for the two astronauts who were traveling with him, but for him it was certainly no ordinary journey.Dennis Tito was the first tourist ever in space, and he had paid the sum of $20 million to go there.As the spacecraft left the earth’s atmosphere, Tito drank a glass of fruit juice to celebrate and looked down at the earth’s blue-green surface.Two minutes later, he was sick.Luckily it was only a minor problem.He soon recovered, and from then on enjoyed a smooth journey.When he arrived at the space station, there was a big smile on his face.“A great trip!”he commented.“I love space.”
