21、Americans love to drive. They have drive — in movie theatres, drive — through restaurants and driving vacations. It’s often called the “Great American Road Trip”: Your whole family gets into a van or Recreational Vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and hits the road for a summertime trip across the country.

American cars are always big, but RVs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks — place to park your RV and spend the night.

As big as RVs are, they still seem very small to a family who has to spend every hour of every day together. With your little brother kicking you in the face all night in your tiny bed under the table, the dog barking and Mom playing her country music on the radio, your family is not at its best. What’s worse, RVs are always breaking down. So it’s possible to spend a lot of time watching Dad under the RV on side of a dusty road.

But RV travel can be a great time with the family too. You can see the country in the comfort of your own “home”. You can spend every night in a different, natural and beautiful place, or just stay where you are. You don’t have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But, best of all, you are free to go wherever you want at any time in your home — away — from — home.

【1】RVs have the following EXCEPT ________.

A．bathrooms

B．bedrooms

C．kitchens

D．gardens

【2】Why do American people like to travel in RVs？

A．Because RVs can go faster than other cars.

B．Because they can play country music on the road.

C．Because RVs never break down on the road.

D．Because it’s like travelling in their own home.

【3】If you travel in RVs, you only have to pay for ________.

A．hotels

B．gas

C．food

D．drinks

【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?

A．Travelling in RVs is more expensive than living in hotels.

B．RVs are big enough for families travelling together.

C．It is not difficult to find parking places for RVs and spend the night.

D．You can’t go anywhere you like when travelling in RVs.

【5】What’s the best title for the article?

A．Go to Travel in RVs

B．Go for a Trip Across the Country

C．A Family Trip

D．Americans Love to Drive

25、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words

Part of the Great Wall in north China’s Hebei Province has collapsed because of illegal mining. This has caused an alarm to ring for those concerned with protecting one of the country’s best known h【1】 sites, which is also a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site.

The damaged part of the Great Wall is located in a remote area near the country of Laiyuan in Hebei. The 150-kilometer stretch of the Great Wall in the county was built during the Ming Dynasty, it is known as the “wild Great Wall.” U【2】 the typical landmark tourist attraction in Beijing, the wild Great Wall has never been repaired but left untouched i【3】.

Laiyuan county, which is r【4】 in metals such as iron and copper, is home to a lot of small mines. Some of them operate as c【5】 as 100 meters to the century-old wall. Mountains around the Great Wall are full of holes d【6】 by illegal mining companies.

According to villagers and local officials, about 700 meters of the wall has already collapsed, and more parts of it will be in danger if the illegal mining continues. In fact, a study in Hebei found that more than 80 percent of the wild Great Wall in the province was in a p【7】 state or had disappeared altogether.
