module2 highlights of my senior year.阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c、d)中，选出最佳选项。anew zealand has long been mountain bike mad.over the last 25 years an increasing number of dedicated (专用的) cycle tracks and parks have sprung up in both town and country，many developed by bike clubs and other community groups. recreational cycling was already on a roll，when in 2009 a 50 million new zealand dollar government fund was established to create a continuous touring route running the length of the country，supported at a grass roots level by an additional 50 million new zealand dollars offered up by councils and local organizations. it soon became apparent，however，that building one continuous route across the two islands was not only too ambitious，but it also would bypass many of the most remote and interesting corners of the country. restoring and extending historic pathways made more sense，enabling cyclists to visit fascinating historic and cultural sites while seeing natural wonders along the way，and inspiring both locals and people from overseas to ride them. the first sod(草皮) of the new trails was turned by prime minister john key in late 2009.since then，armed with machetes，shovels and diggers，some of the worlds best singletrack designers and builders have bushbashed，benched，sidled and switchbacked their way through a diverse range of terrain(地形) by the end of 2012,10 of the 20 trails were open to riders，with the remainder scheduled for completion by the end of 2013.the 2,340 km network will be even further extended by alreadyestablished trails，such as the famous 71 km queen charlotte track that goes through the marlborough sounds at the top of the south island.1restoring and extending historic pathways would_.awork natural wonders along the historic pathwaysballow

because i interview stars.and i have to admit that when i first started working at sassy in 1987，i was excited about that part of my job for the first couple of months，anyway.then i noticed how stars would fool me for months.i could never get enough time with a star to find out anything interesting，and some acted just simply rudely.i started hating the way i was treated，and i was really disappointed to see that these people i had worshipped(崇拜) before were pretty ordinary.so i decided i would just tell the truth instead of keeping up their myths(不真实的事)if the star was a bad guy，i would say so.if i thought someone was stupid，i did not hold back that information. i thought readers would appreciate that kind of honesty.surprisingly，many of them hated me for it.i have gotten so many attacks on my character.in their eyes，being famous is everything，even more desirable than being truly creative and talented. why do we need stars？in fact，the media created stars to satisfy our basic need for gossip(闲话)over time，talking about people we have never met and we are never likely to meet has become what we are crazy about.thus，some people are more interested in the personal lives of stars than in the lives of their own family and friends.that is why it is so ridiculous when a star wants to discuss only his or her work in an interview as we care.we want the dirt in their personal lives.there is another reason why we worship stars.as a whole，our society is not as religious as it once was.it seems that people need something to fulfill them in the way religion once did.star worship exists as an unfulfilling desire for true heroes. we make them stars，but then their reputation makes us feel unimportant，and we truly feel better about ourselves when they die.i am part of this whole process.no wonder i feel soiled at the end of workdays.4what are stars like according to the author?athey always treat others rudely.bthey always talk about something dull.cthey are actually ordinary people.dthey are usually honest and polite.解析：选c。细节理解题。根据第一段第五句中的“.i was really disappointed to see that these people i had worshipped(崇拜)before were pretty ordinary.”可知，作者认为明星实际上就是普通人。5we worship stars because_.awe need true mental heroes to support usbwe can learn something useful from themcwe concern about their family and friendsdwe like talking about

heroes.”可知，人们崇拜明星是因为他们渴望真正的英雄来作为精神寄托。6when the author is writing this article，his tone sounds_.aexcitedbangrycworried dcalm解析：选d。推理判断题。作者在文中介绍了自己对明星的看法，客观地分析了人们崇拜明星的原因，因此他的语气应该是平静的。7what is the main purpose of the author in writing the passage?ato show the disadvantages of working with stars.bto remind us not to worship stars blindly.cto laugh at the stars he has interviewed.dto talk about the reasons why we worship stars.解析：选b。目的意图题。通读全文可知，作者通过自己的工作经历向人们揭示了明星不过是普通人，人们不应该对他们盲目崇拜。因此选b项。.语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。it is usually free for foreign students to stay in a host
