   Peru is an unbelievable destination for tourists. For me, traveling there changed the definition of “vacation”. Women dressed in colorful, woven clothes wandered the street. The food, however, was something I couldn’t get over. It was a huge culture shock for me to dine on alpaca pizza and have guinea pigs as a dish.

We spent the majority of the trip in a unique mountain city called Cusco. The hotel in Cusco was a pretty little place. The bedroom had three twin beds. Another interesting thing our hotel offered was coca tea. The tea leaves are the same leaves used for cocaine.

I thought that New York City had the worst traffic on the Earth until I visited Cusco. There were taxis everywhere, and local drivers ignored red lights. We would be completely stuck in traffic, yet oncoming cars seemed to believe they could magically drive through the middle of our taxi.

During the trip, we joined in several bus tours. One of them included a visit to a marketplace filled with foods and handmade goods. It was an amazing experience because the market was not jam-packed with tourists like every other place. The majority of the shoppers were Peruvian residents. We weaved in and out of streets, gazing at the beautifully handcrafted(手工制作的)rugs and ponchos. I wish I could have bought everything.

Also on the trip was a tour of a genuine village. The villagers there showed us their lifestyle. One of the women showed the boring process of making different products. Their only income was from the goods they sold. Another trick they showed us was using a bug as a lip stain. They would take a bug, press it, and spread the red blood on their lips. I was shocked when they explained that to us. After the tour was over, we were allowed to view their products. I departed with a soft pair of gloves that not only had the four normal finger holes, but also a thumb hole.

【小题1】What did the writer find most terrible in Peru?
A.Eating the local food.

On a cloudless summer day, 13-year-old Charlie Finlayson was ready for a long hike with his father, David.
Around noon, David was inching his way across a cliff 800 feet above the valley, searching for a line of cracks that would lead them to the top. Charlie stood on a rock a dozen yards to the right as he fed rope to his dad. Reaching up, David missed his step. In the next moment, he heard a sharp crack from above as something larger broke loose.
When Charlie saw his father sailing through the air alongside the huge rocks that had struck him, he pulled the rope fiercely.
“Tell me it’s OK,” Charlie begged, struggling to control his fear.
“I think I broke my leg,” David told him. “And we must get off this mountain.” He proposed a plan: Charlie would lower David half a rope length at a time, then lower himself to the same level, and at a new place, begin again.
As hours passed, they came to the base of the cliff, and David was shaking with cold and exhaustion.
Worried that David would die if he fell asleep, Charlie kept the conversation going; they talked about past travels. Eventually Charlie allowed himself to catnap, checking on his father each time he awoke. When the sun rose on their camp, Charlie was relieved to see that his father was awake.
Just after dawn, Charlie headed off on the trail toward the volunteers’ cabin 12 miles away, bringing back a helicopter that would carry his father to safety.
“Charlie’s as strong as anyone I know,” says his father, “I’m so proud of him.”
【小题1】What happened to David when he climbed up?
A.He missed his step and broke his leg.
B.He lost his way across the cliff.
C.He caught sight of a sharp crack from above.
D.He stood on a rock a dozen yards from the cliff.
【小题2】How did Charlie feel at his father’s sailing through the air?
A.Puzzled.
B.Fearful.
C.Relieved.
D.Proud.
【小题3】What does the underlined word “catnap” in Paragraph 7 mean?
A.become less calm
B.continue talking
C.comfort himself
D.take a short sleep
【小题4】What might be the best title for the passage?
A.A Father and His Brave Son
B.An Accident Happened in a Valley
C.A Story on a Cloudless Summer Day
D.A Boy Saved His Father’s Life from Cliff
