Topic 1　Travel journal (Book 1?Unit 3)Ⅰ.阅读理解A话题词数建议用时旅游经历2526分钟Dear Jorge, Are you enjoying your break from school? My family are now in Sacramento, California. We are here paying a visit to my aunt Gloria. We have been to the California State Capitol Building, the nature center, and the zoo. I have seen many interesting things, but one stands out above the rest. This morning we drove from my aunts home to Calistoga to see Californias Old Faithful Geyser (老忠实泉). I had read about it in my book, SightseeinginCalifornia: WhereYouShouldGo. You have probably heard of Old Faithful, the geyser farther north in Yellowstone National Park. This California geyser is sometimes called “Little Old Faithful.”When we arrived Californias Old Faithful was only a calm pool of water. The geyser didnt look very deep. “Whats the big deal？” I wondered. As I turned, I saw some steam rising from the water. Before I knew it, there was hot water shooting up about 60 feet into the air. We could not believe our eyes! It continued for almost three minutes.Aunt Gloria told me that the water came from an underground river. She also said that the water temperature was about 95℃. This water can sometimes shoot 170 feet into the air.My aunt said that other geysers around the world reach hotter temperatures and shoot water even higher than Californias Old Faithful Geyser. Id love to learn more about this geyser and other geysers in different countries when I get home. Ill see you soon!Your friend，Bennetto语篇解读：本文是一封书信。作者主要讲述了自己的旅游经历。1．According to the text, Bennetto ________.A．visited his aunt Gloria by himselfB．had never heard of Old Faithful GeyserC．thought nothing of Old Faithful Geyser at firstD．flew all the way from Sacramento to Calistoga解析：选C　细节理解题。由第二段中的“When we arrived Californias ...
