Cycle travel is a cheap form of transportation.DistanceOn level terrain(地形),without a headwind, a cyclist of average fitness on a touring bike can comfortably cover 60-120km a day. Distances of up to 250km a day are possible, but anything much beyond 120km will require considerable physical tension and not allow many stops to enjoy the places you visit. For many80-100km a day will be the most suitable distance to aim for, as it will give a sense of achievement and also leave plenty of time for meals and activities.GeographyThe gradient（坡度）of the trip will reduce your range. A basic rule is that for every 100metres of altitude you climb, you should add an extra 15 minutes to your journey time. In hilly or mountainous areas, the easiest routes for cycling are downstream along major rivers, as they will be downhill overall. However, it is worth bearing in mind that the most scenic routes often come from hilly terrain(地形).EatFood choice depends largely on where you are, so see the respective(各自的) sections for more information about foods. On long trips away from major towns, there may be little quality food available, so be prepared to live on candy bars, prepared meat products and the like (and so on) if the need arises.SleepWhile you can take a tent with you, many hotels and especially campsites can accommodate (provide a place to stay) cyclists. However, there are also some hotels that may be less used to accommodating cyclists.33.Which of the following distance does the author suggest to ordinary cyclists a day? A.50kmB.90kmC.130kmD.250km 34.From the passage, we can learn that_. A.high quality food is easy to get on long trips B.hotels seldom provide accommodation for cyclists C.it takes cyclists 15 minutes to climb 100m of altitude D.cycling over a mountain is challenging but worthy 35.We can probably read this passage in_. A.a geography bookB.a travel magazine C.a science fictionD.a research reportIII、根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 (本大题共5小题，共10.0分)36.How to Love Your Parents Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part a source of who you are. Here are some ways to love your parents. (1). _A gentle “good morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents, we might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world. Respect them more and cherish these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them for when youre off on your own. Its OK to get angry but angry actions dont help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, journal about your feelings, or talk to a friend. （2）Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through hell when you dont get what you want or you have to clean. However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when its cold, raining, snowing, or too hot. Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes. (3)_. Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents? Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them. _(4). Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this way or another. Some people simply may not be able to love their parents. _(5). Seek help if you are being abused in any way. Parents do not have a right to harm you. AForgiveness is the key.BTell them you love them every morning.CParents will in turn express their love to you.DAfter this, share your feelings with your parents.E.
