The Best National Parks to Visit in Winter
While most parks tend to draw families in the summer and fall, there are also ideal spots for adventurous winter trips.
Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming
The country’s oldest and best-known national park takes on an almost otherworldly atmosphere in winter: the air filled with rolling steam, the strong colors of hot springs, the surrounding white landscapes, let alone the impressive wildlife during this time, like bison, wolves, and playful red foxes. Just book a guided hiking tour to get a ranger’s perspective on the park and local people.
Joshua Tree National Park, California
With its giant red rocks and unique trees, you’ll feel like stepping onto a foreign planet as you spend hours hiking the Panorama Loop or Maze Loop. The park is recognized as an International Dark Sky Park, featuring virtually zero light pollution and the country’s best views of a starry sky.
Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona
A significantly lower number of visitors in winter means you can take in unblocked views of the South Rim, and get to see the rare beauty of the Grand Canyon dusted with snow. For those adventurous and daring, it is recommended to hike the Bright Angel Trail and take the chance to see the canyon’s wintertime wildlife, including mule deer, elk, and bald eagles.
Virgin Islands National Park, St. John
Surprise! Not all wintertime national park trips need to involve snow. Virgin Islands National Park is most famous for its white-sand beaches. You can also hike inland to visit old sugar plantations, or venture out to the water to swim along with sea turtles and manta rays. You will definitely enjoy a different winter here.
1. Which park will one choose if he/she is interested in stars?
A. Yellowstone National Park. B. Joshua Tree National Park.
C. Grand Canyon National Park. D. Virgin Islands National Park.
2. What do we know about the Grand Canyon National Park?
A. We can have a poor view of the South Rim there. B. It lies in an area with rolling steam and hot springs.
C. There is a slight decline in visitor numbers in winter. D. The Bright Angel Trail is challenging in cold weather.
3. Which activity is mentioned in all of the parks?
A. Hiking. B. Skiing. C. Swimming. D. Hunting.
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. A

The past few years have been difficult for 13-year-old Adeola Abraham. In 2020, the teen was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder, and he survived a successful bone marrow transplant (骨髓移植) and rounds of chemotherapy (化疗). Thankfully, Adeola is now out of the hospital. During his recovery, he found out that he had qualified for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ask for a dream wish from Make-A-Wish Mississippi. While many teens would choose a memorable Disney trip, meet a favorite figure or get a PlayStation, Abraham instead chose to feed the homeless in his local community.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation is famous for brightening the lives of children suffering from critical illnesses by meeting their wishes. A wish typically falls into three categories: a wish to have something, go somewhere or meet someone. Abraham’s charitable wish to give came as a surprise to the organization. Linda Sermons, a Make-A-Wish Mississippi representative, said that Abraham’s generous wish was the first of its kind in the organization’s 35-year history. She was impressed with the teen’s maturity and sense of sympathy.
Make-A-Wish Mississippi approved of the teen’s wish in a big way. They created a service named after the teen, called Abraham’s Table, which would provide free meals to the homeless every month for the next year. Local businesses generously donated food and supplies, and receivers gathered in Jackson’s Poindexter Park for the meals. Abraham and his proud mom personally attended and handed out the food. Abraham’s Table fed more than 80 people at its first event. Abraham said it warmed his heart when the receivers came back to thank him for the meal he provided.
Abraham now wants to inspire other teens to get more involved in local charities. He also wants to continue his mission of helping others by starting his own nonprofit that helps those experiencing food insecurity.
4. What made Abraham a remarkable boy?
A. His exceptional choice for a dream wish. B. His great sufferings from a critical disease.
C. His special qualifications for a dream wish. D. His successful survival from a blood disorder.
5 What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Eighty people or so benefited from Abraharn’s Table.
B. Abraham’s act of kindness received positive reaction.
C. The organization provided financial help for the homeless.
D. The local businesses were greatly appreciated by the receivers.
6. According to the passage, which words can best describe Abraham?
A. Energetic and determined. B. Mature and intelligent.
C. Sympathetic and selfless. D. Generous and cautious.
7. Which of the following can best describe the story?
A. Hard work always pays off. B. It’s a blessing to be a giver.
C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Miracles often occur in bad luck.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了身患重病而康复的13岁的Abraham许下一个梦想，为当地社区的无家可归者提供食物，作为一个给予者，慷慨无私地帮助他人，使Abraham感到无比幸福的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“During his recovery, he found out that he had qualified for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ask for a dream wish from Make-A-Wish Mississippi. While many teens would choose a memorable Disney trip, meet a favorite figure or get a PlayStation, Abraham instead chose to feed the homeless in his local community. (在康复期间，他发现自己有资格得到一个千载难逢的机会，可以在‘许愿密西西比’许下一个梦想。虽然很多青少年会选择难忘的迪士尼之旅，遇见最喜欢的人物或得到一个游戏机，Abraham却选择了为当地社区的无家可归者提供食物。)”可知，是Abraham对梦想的特殊选择使他成为一个非凡的孩子。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Make-A-Wish Mississippi approved of the teen’s wish in a big way. They created a service named after the teen, called Abraham’s Table, which would provide free meals to the homeless every month for the next year. Local businesses generously donated food and supplies, and receivers gathered in Jackson’s Poindexter Park for the meals. (‘许愿密西西比’在很大程度上支持了这名少年的愿望。他们以这名少年的名字创建了一项名为‘Abraham的餐桌’的服务，在接下来的一年里，每个月都为无家可归的人提供免费的食物。当地企业慷慨地捐赠了食物和物资，接受者聚集在Jackson的Poindexter公园参加宴会。)”以及“Abraham said it warmed his heart when the receivers came back to thank him for the meal he provided. (Abraham，当接受帮助的人回来感谢他提供的食物时，他感到很温暖。)”等内容可以推知，Abraham的善举得到了积极的反应。故选B项。
【6题详解】

【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，根据第一段中“While many teens would choose a memorable Disney trip, meet a favorite figure or get a PlayStation, Abraham instead chose to feed the homeless in his local community. (虽然很多青少年会选择难忘的迪士尼之旅，遇见最喜欢的人物或得到一个游戏机，Abraham却选择了为当地社区的无家可归者提供食物。)”以及第三段中“Abraham said it warmed his heart when the receivers came back to thank him for the meal he provided. (Abraham说，当接受帮助的人回来感谢他提供的食物时，他感到很温暖。)”可知，本文主要讲述了身患重病而康复的13岁的Abraham许下一个梦想，为当地社区的无家可归者提供食物，作为一个给予者，慷慨无私地帮助他人，使Abraham感到无比幸福的故事。从而推知，选项B“做一个给予者是一种祝福。”最能描述这个故事。故选B项。
C
Scientists in Australia have discovered that they can use the world’s smelliest fruits to make devices that could power electric cars. A durian is a fruit that looks like a pineapple. It is a delicacy in some Asian countries, but its smell is so unpleasant that some of those countries have banned it from public places. Its smell has been compared to rotting eggs and even smelly old gym socks.
Vincent Gomes and his colleagues at the University of Sydney, in Australia, used a durian and a jackfruit — another fruit known for its terrible smell — to make energy storing devices called supercapacitors.
Supercapacitors are an alternative to batteries. They can’t store as much energy as a normal battery does, but they are much quicker to recharge. Durians and jackfruits contain some of the chemicals used in supercapacitors, which gave Gomes the idea. To make the fruit-based devices, the team heated and then freeze-dried the uneatable cores of the durian and jackfruit to make a special kind of material called an aerogel.
Aerogels are one of the world’s lightest solid materials. Often called “frozen smoke”, they are made by removing the liquid from a gel and replacing it with air. They have many scientific uses, but one of their special properties is the ability to conduct electric currents, which makes them an important part of supercapacitors. The aerogels made from durian and jackfruit both worked well when placed inside a supereapacitor, although the durian aerogel was found to be the better of the two.
The discovery is important because the materials currently used to make supercapacitors are expensive. Using natural foods like durians and jackfruits, Gomes says, could reduce environmental pollution, as well as costs.
8. What makes some countries have different attitudes toward the durian?
A. Its smell. B. Its appearance.
C. Its value. D. Its popularity.
9. Which paragraph mentions Gomes’s inspiration of innovation?
A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2.
C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4.
10. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Aerogels. B. Scientific uses.
C. Properties. D. Electric currents.
11. What can we learn about fruit-based supercapacitors?
A. They are devices for producing electricity.
B. They are chemicals from durians.
C. They are green and economical.
D. They are light and liquid.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，可以使用榴莲和菠萝蜜等天然食品制造超级电容器，这样可以减少环境污染和制作成本。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段关键句“A durian is a fruit that looks like a pineapple. It is a delicacy in some Asian countries, but is smell is so unpleasant that some of those countries have banned it from public places.（榴莲是一种看起来像菠萝的水果。在一些亚洲国家，它是一种美味，但它的气味非常难闻，以至于其中一些国家禁止在公共场所食用它）”可知，有些亚洲国家认为榴莲是一种美味，但因为它的气味非常难闻，所以其中一些国家禁止在公共场所食用它，由此可知，一些国家对榴莲有不同的态度是因为它的气味。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“Supercapacitors are an alternative to batteries. They can’t store as much energy as a normal battery does, but they are much quicker to recharge. Durians and jackfruits contain some of the chemicals used in supercapacitors, which gave Gomes the idea.（超级电容器是电池的替代品。它们不能像普通电池那样储存能量，但充电速度要快得多。榴莲和菠萝蜜含有超级电容器中使用的一些化学物质，这让Gomes产生了这个想法）”可知，文章第三段中介绍了因为榴莲和菠萝蜜含有超级电容器中使用的一些化学物质，这让Gomes获得了创新的灵感，由此可知，文章第三段提到了Gomes创新的灵感。故选C项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线单词上文“Aerogels are one of the world’s lightest solid materials, Often called “frozen smoke”, they are made by removing the liquid from a gel and replacing it with air. They have many scientific uses, but one of their special properties is the ability to conduct electric currents…（气凝胶是世界上最轻的固体材料之一，通常被称为“冷冻烟雾”，它们是通过从凝胶中去除液体并用空气代替而制成的。它们有许多科学用途，但它们的一个特殊特性是传导电流的能力……）”可知，上文主要介绍的是气凝胶，句中指气凝胶有许多科学用途，气凝胶的一个特殊特性是传导电流的能力，由此可知，画线单词所在句指的是这使得气凝成为超级电容器的重要组成部分，由此可知，句中“them”代指的是上文提到的“Aerogels”（气凝胶）。故选A项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段内容“The discovery is important because the materials currently used to make supercapacitors are expensive. Using natural foods like durians and jackfruits, Gomes says, could reduce environmental pollution, as well as costs.（这一发现很重要，因为目前用于制造超级电容器的材料很昂贵。Gomes说，使用榴莲和菠萝蜜等天然食品可以减少环境污染和成本）”可知，使用榴莲和菠萝蜜等天然食品制造超级电容器可以减少环境污染和成本，由此可知，关于水果超级电容器，我们能知道它们既环保又经济。故选C项。
D
After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.
Together, these deep human urges（驱策力）count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, "Why? Why? Why?"
Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them.
"The great man," said Mencius（孟子）, "is he who does not lose his child's heart. " Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied.
Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.
How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. How she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.
One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven't any special ability? Most people don't; there are only a few geniuses. You haven't any time? That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You're too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.
However you start remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.
12. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________.
A. propose a definition B. make a comparison
C. reach a conclusion D. present an argument
13. What does the example of Galileo tell us?
A Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.
B. Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.
C. Creativity results from challenging authority.
D. Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.
14. What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent?
A. Observe the unknown around you.
B. Develop a questioning mind.
C. Lead a life of adventure.
D. Follow the fashion.
15. What could be the best title of the passage?
A. Curious Minds Never Feel Contented
B. Reflections on Human Nature
C. The Keys to Achievement
D. Never Too Late to Learn
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了获得成就的两个关键因素——好奇心和不满足。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.(经过多年对人性的观察，我认为有两个品质决定了成就非凡的人和平庸的人的区别好奇心和不满足。据我所知，任何一个杰出的人都缺乏这两点。我从来没见过一个普通人同时拥有这两种能力。他们俩是天生一对) ”可知，作者经过多年对人性的观察，认为成就非凡的人和平庸的人的区别在于好奇心和不满足，而且两者是相辅相成的。因此，作者写第一段的目的是提出一个论点。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, ‘Why? Why? Why?’(像伽利略一样，历史上所有的伟人都感到好奇，并不满地问：“为什么？为什么？为什么？”) ”可推断，伽利略的例子告诉我们，伟大来自于持久的探索欲望。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, ‘Why? Why? Why?’(像伽利略一样，历史上所有的伟人都感到好奇，并不满地问：“为什么？为什么？为什么？”) ”；以及第四段中的“‘The great man,’ said Mencius (孟子), ‘is he who does not lose his child's heart.’ Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd.(孟子认为“不失去孩子的心，就是伟大的人。”然而，我们大多数人确实失去了它。我们不再问问题。我们不再挑战习俗。我们只是随大流) ”可知，你可以通过培养了一个善于提问的头脑，来重新获得好奇心和不满足。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together. (经过多年对人性的观察，我认为有两个品质决定了成就非凡的人和平庸的人的区别好奇心和不满。据我所知，任何一个杰出的人都缺乏这两点。我从来没见过一个普通人同时拥有这两种能力。他们俩是天生一对) ”及下文论述可知，本文主要论述了获得成就的两个关键因素——好奇心和不满足。所以“The Keys to Achievement(成就的关键)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选C。
第二节 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。（满分12.5分，每小题2.5分）
A few years ago, I was giving a presentation to the CEO of a company. Through the entire meeting time, the CEO sat at the conference table with his arms tightly crossed without a smile. I was sure that he was not satisfied, but later his assistant told me her boss was impressed with my presentation. Suddenly, I realized that, it was his usual behavior. ___16___ Here are three more: ignoring the context, finding meaning in a single gesture, comparing with a proper culture.
First, context is king. The same nonverbal gestures can take on totally different meanings in different contexts. You can’t really make sense of someone’s nonverbal message unless you understand the circumstances behind it. For example, if you yawn in a staff meeting because you were up early for an international business call, let people know why you’re tired. ___17___
Then, people are constantly trying to evaluate your state of mind by monitoring your body language. But often they will assign meaning to a single nonverbal gesture. Generally speaking, people take more notice of any sign that indicates you’re in a bad mood and not to be approached. ___18___ So, you may be more comfortable standing with your arms folded across your chest, but others judge that single gesture as resistant and unapproachable.
When I talk about culture, I’m referring to a set of shared values that a group of people hold. ___19___ More importantly, they are the kind of criteria by which people judge others. We all have cultural biases that regard some nonverbal behaviors as normal and right and others as strange or wrong. What’s proper and correct in one culture may be ineffective or even rude in another.
___20___ Understanding them, and trying not to make the same ones, will help you display your nonverbal ability.
A. Such values affect how members of the group think and act.
B. Nonverbal signals are very common in our daily life.
C. These are people’s most common mistakes when they read your body language.
D. As with me, when people don’t know your usual behavior they can easily jump to the wrong conclusion.
E. Without this context, you’ll look like you’re just bored.
F. If they don’t know the context embarrassment will appear.
G This is because the human brain pays more attention to negative messages than it does to positive ones.
【答案】16. D 17. E 18. G 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文为说明文。介绍了人们可能会对别人的肢体语言产生误解的几种常见的情况及原因。
【16题详解】
根据上文“A few years ago, I was giving a presentation to the CEO of a company. Through the entire meeting time, the CEO sat at the conference table with his arms tightly crossed without a smile. I was sure that he was not satisfied, but later his assistant told me her boss was impressed with my presentation. Suddenly, I realized that, it was his usual behavior.(几年前，我在给一家公司的首席执行官做演讲。整个会议期间，首席执行官都坐在会议桌旁，双臂紧紧交叉，没有一丝笑容。我确信他并不满意，但后来他的助手告诉我，她的老板对我的演讲印象深刻。突然，我意识到，这是他的惯常行为)”以及后文“Here are three more: ignoring the context, finding meaning in a single gesture, comparing with a proper culture.(这里还有三个原因：忽略上下文，在一个手势中找到意义，与适当的文化相比较)”可知，该句承接上文，与前面作者的亲身经历紧密联系，并与后面的“Here are three more”构成承接关系，引出另外三个对肢体语言产生误解的原因。故D选项“和我一样，当人们不知道你通常的行为时，他们很容易得出错误的结论”符合语境。故选D。
【17题详解】
根据上文“First, context is king. The same nonverbal gestures can take on totally different meanings in different contexts. You can’t really make sense of someone’s nonverbal message unless you understand the circumstances behind it. For example, if you yawn in a staff meeting because you were up early for an international business call, let people know why you’re tired.(首先，语境很重要。相同的非言语手势在不同的语境中可能具有完全不同的含义。你无法真正理解某人的非语言信息，除非你了解其背后的情况。例如，如果你在员工会议上打哈欠是因为你很早就要打国际商务电话，那么让人们知道你为什么累)”可知，前一句为：如果你在员工会议上打哈欠是因为你早起接打一个商务电话所致，那你要说明情况。E选项中context对应上文中context。故E选项“没有了这个语境，你看起来的样子是对会议感到无聊了”符合语境。故选E。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Then, people are constantly trying to evaluate your state of mind by monitoring your body language. But often they will assign meaning to a single nonverbal gesture. Generally speaking, people take more notice of any sign that indicates you’re in a bad mood and not to be approached.(然后，人们不断尝试通过监控你的肢体语言来评估你的心理状态。但通常他们会给一个非言语的手势赋予意义。一般来说，人们会更多地注意到任何表明你心情不好的迹象，不要接近你)”可知，上文提到一般来说，人们更注意那些表明你心情不好、不想让人接近的迹象。G项中“This is because”对上面的现象做出解释：这是因为人类大脑对消极信息的关注多于对积极信息的关注。选项中的pay more attention to、negative messages 分别与上句中的take more notice、bad mood and not to be approached对应。故G选项“这是因为人脑更关注负面信息，而不是正面信息”符合语境。故选G。
【19题详解】
根据上文“When I talk about culture, I’m referring to a set of shared values that a group of people hold.(当我谈论文化时，我指的是一群人持有的一套共同价值观)”可知，本句成绩上文说明拥有共同价值观的作用：影响团队成员的思维和行为方式。故A选项“这些价值观会影响团队成员的思维和行为方式”符合语境。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据后文“Understanding them, and trying not to make the same ones, will help you display your nonverbal ability.(理解它们，尽量避免重复，这将有助于你展示自己的非言语能力)”可知，本句是文章最后一段，对上文所叙述的内容进行概括总结，“These are people’s most common mistakes”不仅起到承上的作用，又对后文起到了启下的作用。下句中的them和ones即选项中提到的most common mistakes。故C选项“这些是人们在阅读你的肢体语言时最常见的错误”符合语境。故选C。

52. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was summer, and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Uncle Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm,” he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze (吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon, I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a hose ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper,” Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven (编织的) blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.

Paragraph 2：
We had no idea where we were and it got dark.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. Its abrupt appearance scared my horse, making it run off the track wildly. I spared no efforts to hold on as hard as I could and my dad was trying to keep up, extremely worried about my safety. Fortunately, minutes later, the horse stopped before a river, out of breath. Relieved, we looked around trying to find the track. However, it was nowhere to be found. So aimlessly did the frightened horse run that we got lost unconsciously.
Paragraph 2:
We had no idea where we were and it got dark. Nothing in sight was familiar and neither did we know where the farm house was. Just at the point of desperation, from the distance came a faint voice. “It must be Uncle Paul,” I exclaimed excitedly. That we didn’t come back for dinner made him realize something unusual might have happened. So my uncle went out to look for us. Finally, we reached our uncle’s farm house safe and sound.
