Long before there wasn’t any Washington or any United States, while there were trader Indians on the shores of the river that flows by the place where the present Washington D. C. stands. These Indians paddled canoes(划独木舟) up and down the river and traded with other Indians, swapping things they had for things they wanted-beads for furs, bows for arrows, corn for potatoes. In the Indian language the name for traders was Potomac, so now we call the river the Potomac River after these trader Indians. The Potomac separates two states-Maryland and Virginia. They are named after two English queens-Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth I who never married and was called the Virgin Queen. The Potomac Indians paddled their canoes down the river until they came to a much broader body of water. This body of water was so big that it seemed to them like the ocean, and they called it “the Mother of Waters”, which in their own language was “Chesapeake”. Though Chesapeake Bay is not the ocean, it is the biggest bay in the United States.

In the 19th century Americans from the eastern states moved out west to settle in the rich new lands along the Pacific Coast. The most difficult part of their trip was crossing the “Great American Desert” in the western part of the United States by horse and wagon..

The western desert can be very dangerous. There is little water and there are few trees. But the desert also has scenery of great beauty. Tall towers of red and yellow stone rise sharply from the flat, sandy valley floor. The scene has been photographed many times and appears in movies and on TV.

In Arizona, man-made dams across the Colorado River have made two large lakes in the middle of the dry desert country. At Lake Powell, the red stone arch(拱) of Rainbow Bridge rises high above the blue lake.

There are few roads. Many areas of Lake Powell’s shore can only be reached by boat or on foot. But hikers(徒步旅行者) in this empty desert land sometimes find very old native American pictures, painted on the rocks.

In Death Valley, California, the summer temperature rises to 130-165 degrees Fahrenheit. There is less than two inches of rain each year. Death Valley is the lowest place in America-925 meters below sea level. In the 1800s, many travelers died when they tried to cross this waterless valley in the terrible heat.

Although the desert is dry and seems empty, there is plenty of life if you look closely. Small insects, snakes, and rats have learned how to live in the desert heat. They live underground and come out at night, when it is cool. Plants such as cactus(仙人掌) need very little water. When it does rain in the desert (sometimes only once or twice a year), plants grow quickly, and flowers open in a single day. For a short time, the desert is covered with brilliant colour.

71. In the 19th century. Americans moved from the east to the west because they ______.

　　 A. enjoy the trip　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B. wanted to make their home there

　　 C. wanted to find new grass land there　　　　 D. had no water to drink

　　 A. the western desert is a good place for people to live in

　　 B. there is little water but there are many trees in the desert

　　 C. the desert is dangerous but it is full of beauty

　　 D. till now, people know little about the desert　

73. If you want to find some old native American pictures painted on the rock, you must travel ______.

A. on foot　　　　　　　　　　 B. by boat　　　　　　 　 C. by car　　　　　　　　　 D. by plane

74. In the 1800s, many travelers died in Death Valley because of ______.

A. illness　　　　 B. high temperature　　　　　　　　　　 C. cold weather　　　　　　 D. poisonous water

They had shared a flat with Watson for two years, so they knew that he slept like a log. Any amount of noise in the flat quite failed to wake him up if he was sound asleep. Even if they rushed into his room shouting his name to the skies, the sleeping Watson would not move. Even so, they were surprised and amused when he told them about his holiday in Norfolk. He had spent nearly a week riding a bike slowly round the long coastline, sightseeing by day and camping out each night in different places. He slept in a sleeping bag in a small tent, which he put up usually in a corner of a field near the roadside, with his bike locked onto one of the tent poles. Well, poor Watson woke up on the fifth morning about ten o’clock and looked about to find not only his bike and the tent pole gone but also the tent and all his clothes. Watson always slept with nothing on, so now he had to walk to the nearest house dressed only in his bed, so to speak(可以说/可谓), in which he had made two holes for his feet.

66. Watson’s one shortcoming(短处) was that _______.

　　 A. slept a dead sleep　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B. camped out at night

　　 C. made noise to skies　　　　　　　　　　　　 D. slept in the field

　　 A. all his clothes were stolen except a short pair of trousers

　　 B. everything in the tent was gone

　　 C. he was sleeping in the open air

　　 D. he had to go to the nearest house with nothing on

70. The last sentence of the passage tells us that Watson _______.

　　 A. made two holes and made a long pair of trousers of the sleeping bag

　　 B. put his feet out of the bed through the two holes and used the bed as his clothes

　　 C. sent his two feet out because the bed was too small for him to stay in
