I went to Grand Canyon (大峡谷) National Park in July 2012 for the firsttime and I knew I wanted to work there as a park ranger(管理员). Park rangers protect the park's animals, plants, land, buildings, andpeople.

Now, as a park ranger forGrand Canyon National Park, I share the science, history and beauty of this parkwith thousands of visitors from around the world.

National parks are like outdoormuseums. Park rangers have all kinds of jobs, depending on where they work and whatthey studied during college. I teach school field trips(实地考察), work at visitor centers and helppeople stay safe during their visit.

My favorite part of my jobis showing children their first look at the Grand Canyon during school field trips.Children are often amazed at the canyon's size and colors. Sometimes, they thinkit looks like a painting.

Being a park ranger requiresa lot of energy. I walk several miles and talk with hundreds of people each day.Park rangers must enjoy working with people and speaking in front of groups. Nearly5 million people visit Grand Canyon National Park every year.

Park rangers must also beprepared for any situation. Recently, I broke a traffic jam(堵塞). It was caused by a huge elk(麋鹿)standing in the road. Elks can become dangerous when they get scared,so I asked visitors to stop their cars and take pictures from far away. Believeit or not, I also help protect people from monkeys. It is not allowed to feed animalsin national parks. But sometimes, visitors try to feed monkeys.

Do you know Tianshui, a big city along the ancient Siłk Road? It is one of the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (最古老的) cities in Gansu Province. So people {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (通常地) visit Tianshui for its history and culture. Things have {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (改变) these days, however. More and more people are traveling there for its spicy hot pot(麻辣烫). According to Trip.com, bookings for hotels and attractions in Tianshui have risen {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (四十) percent from a year ago.

In early February, a student posted a video of the spicy hot pot on social media. So far, the video has quickly deceived 1,000,000 likes. Many people said that they wanted to taste the food {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (他们自己).

What makes the food special in Tianshui? That's all thanks to the seasonings (佐料). {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (蔬菜) and meat are cooked with a mix of peppercorns and red pepper oil. The red pepper is grown in Tianshui's Gangu County (甘谷县). The {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (气候) there makes the pepper look bright red and taste great. This gives the hot pot an unusual look and flavor.

The city's increasing popularity has excited the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (本地的) government. They hope to follow the examples of Zibo and Harbin and {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (发展) the city. Since March 11, they have offered two new bus services to take tourists from train stations to dining places. Also, a food festival was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (举办) to show the delicious food. They hope to make tourists feel at home.

①Our body language tells the world a lot about us. But can it change the way in which we see ourselves? The answer is Yes.

②Two scientists, Amy Cuddy and Danna Carney, who know much about body language, did a famous research. According to the result of their research, body language can change the chemistry of our brains. Some high-power body language can make you become confident. For example, you will feel confident when you hold your head high; you will feel confident too when you put your arms out wide as if you have won a race. However, some low-power body language can make you feel unconfident, such as sitting with your arms close to the body, sitting with your legs together or walking with your head down.

③Why do all these happen? The scientists think the reason is that body language changes the amount of something special in our brains. It's called hormone(激素). One kind of hormone can increase your confidence; another kind can increase your stress(压力). But too much stress hormone is bad for learning. It also increases the risk of health problems.

④The result of the research is helpful for your studies. Please remember: try to use more high-power body language in your studies, and you will be confident. That is, always believe you can study well, act as if you were doing well, then you will make greater progress in real life.

 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

My father is lucky. He falls asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. However, my mother is not so lucky. Sleep usually takes longer to come, counting sheep may be the answer. With their` eyes closed, people picture a line of white sheép. Then, they count as each sheep jump over a· fence.

This method is as old as time. Some people believe it comes from the Islamic culture. While others believe it started with shepherds in old Britain. They couldn't get to sleep at night because they were worried about all of the sheep in the field. So they would calm themselves by counting the sheep up to make sure they were all safe.

A team of scientists at Oxford University sarried out a study on counting sheep. They aimed to see if the method really worked. They put 41 people with sleep problems in three groups. The first group went to sleep in their normal ways. And group two needed to imagine peaceful scenes like waterfalls to help them fall asleep. The last group counted sheep.

The scientists got some interesting results. The people in the second group got to sleep around 20 minutes faster than usual. However, those in the last group took longer than usual to fall asleep. I he scientists believed counting sheep made the people feel nervous. As a result, they had more difficulty falling asleep. So, it looks like counting sheep may not be the answer for people with sleep problems.

When falling asleep, it is likely to be more helpful to make the mind filled with something relaxing rather than active." You have to keep record of those sheep. It takes a lot of work to count them all up." said Michael Decker, Ph. D, you can try taking a bath to help fall asleep. You can also think about a quiet beach or a walk in the woods."^

Remember next time, no more sheep in your bed.

 Before the 1930s, shopping carts(购物车) were not needed by people. Almost every family didn't have fridges, so people bought a day's food at a time. They had to do shopping at different stores, such as fish shops, vegetable shops and meat shops. The rise of supermarkets changed that.

Sylcan Goldman, who owned many supermarkets in Oklahoma City, noticed that when customers in his stores used handheld baskets, they often stopped shopping when the baskets became too full or too heavy. He told his staff to walk up to people whose baskets were full and offer them another basket. It didn't work, so Goldman searched for something better.

One evening in 1936,a good idea came as Goldman worked late in his office. He looked at a folding chair and had the idea of replacing the seat with two shelves(掷架)—— one higher and one lower than the seat's usual position— and adding wheels to the legs. The shelves would hold shopping baskets, which could be taken off when not in use.

After several tries, Goldman built some carts and introduced them in his stores in the following summer. However, they were not popular with customers. Most housewives said they didn't need a cart because they already had a baby carriage (婴儿推车).

 Goldman didn't give up. He made people of all ages act as customers and use the carts. This way worked, and customers began to give them a try. Within a few years, shopping carts were everywhere. They were quite similar to the shopping carts used in the supermarkets nowadays.
