Harry Potter Theme Park

“The Wizarding World of Harry Potter”is set to open at Universal's Islands of Adventure theme park in late 2009, complete with the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry，the Forbidden Forest，and Hogsmeade village.
“The plans I've seen look incredibly exciting, and I don't think fans of the books or films will feel disappointed，”said author J. K. Rowling, who has been working with a creative team to make sure the park resembles the books and films.
“More than a dozen artists led by Stuart Craig, the production designer of the movies, have set up houses in the studio where the movies are being filmed to make sure every detail is considered，”said Scott Trowbridge of Universal.
The park will let visitors view the famed locations in Rowling's magical world, like Dumbledore's office in Hogwarts and the shops in Hogsmeade. Some locations may be in upcoming (即将出现的) books.
Many tourists outside the theme park said the experience would boost its appeal to younger audience.
Trowbridge said while there would not be any character looking alike at the park, fans wanting to see Harry Potter and his magical friends wouldn't leave disappointed.
“This is Harry's world，”said Trowbridge. “Every fan wants to have an encounter (相遇) with the stars of the show.”
The Harry Potter book series has been translated into 65 languages with more than 325 million copies sold in over 200 territories around the world.

Disney decided to build his park in California, and in 1952 he began to buy land. This proved to be a difficult task, since the land he wanted was owned by no fewer than twenty families. In 1954, he sent four members of his staff around the United States looking for ideas at establishing amusement parks. The only idea on which they found general agreement was that Disney was insane. Owners of other parks said it was impossible to succeed without dangerous rides or using methods that were at least a little dishonest. However, Disney went on with his plans for a clean, safe park, which he decided to call Disneyland.
At last Disneyland was built and opened to the public. Very quickly, it came to be regarded as one of the wonders of the modern world.
Disneyland was a personal satisfaction to Disney. It expressed his ideas of all that is true, good and beautiful in this world. He never tired of visiting the park himself, of expanding it or improving it. Even today, Disneyland is kept spotless(无污点的). Every night, every street and walkway is washed, and workers with knives get down on their hands and knees to scrape out(刮去) chewing gum dropped by visitors.
Disney himself didn't live long enough to visit his Florida park. Death came in December 1966. On the day of his death, this headline appeared in the New York Times：
Walt Disney, 65, dies on coast
Founded an empire(帝国)on a mouse
He was a dreamer who had worked hard to make his dreams come true, and he had brought joy to millions.
文章大意：本文介绍了迪斯尼是怎样建立起自己的迪斯尼帝国的。

B．some people gave great support to Disney
C．the owners of some parks showed jealousy(嫉妒)to Disney
D．Disney was not influenced(影响)by others' disagreement at all
答案：D 推理判断题。由第一段可知，别人都认为迪斯尼的做法是不会成功的，但他还是继续自己的计划。
61．In the first paragraph, the word “insane” can be replaced by ________.
A．excited B．mad
C．kind D．interested
答案：B 词义猜测题。 由下一句中的impossible可知，别人都认为这是不可能的。因此insane的含义应和B项mad(疯了)是一致的。
62．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．In 1954 Disney began to buy land to build his park in California.
B．From the investigation of four members of his staff, his idea was very acceptable.
C．Disney died after he built his Florida park.

Drayton Manor in the UK first opened its gates to the public in October, 1949, as an inland pleasure resort and was originally just a normal park with tea rooms, boat rides and a pet's corner. Since then it has grown to become the UK's leading familyrun theme park and the fourth most popular theme park in the UK. The park's motto is “Family Run for Family Run”．
Drayton Manor Theme Park stands in an area of 280 acres and boasts 36 rides in total, including 4 roller coasters and 3 water rides. Within the park is a 15acre zoo which houses over 100 species of animals. Drayton Manor is proud to be the first in the world for some of its rides. For instance, the Apocalypse is the world's first standup tower drop ride and G Force is the world's first X Car Coaster (apart from its original design in Germany)．
If you fancy a camping holiday at Drayton Manor, there is a 75pitch camping and caravan(宿营拖车) site with onsite facilities such as toilets, showers (for the disabled, too), and security. Not only are you situated on the park itself, but you are also close to a large number of other local attractions and facilities.
A day at Drayton Manor is fun for all the family. Unfortunately, there are height restrictions on some of the rides. Children over 1.4 m can ride on all the rides by themselves. Children between 1.4 m and 1 m must be accompanied by an adult to enjoy some rides. There are several rides which children shorter than 1 m are not allowed to ride on. There are numerous places to eat and drink, so you will never need to go hungry. And for the smaller children at Drayton Manor, there is Robinson's Land which had some big events happening in 2010.
All in all, Drayton Manor has something for the whole family and is well worth a family day trip this summer. For opening times and ticket prices, check out Drayton Manor Home Page.

At the Smithsonian's National Zoo, animals are getting their paws dirty with harmless waterbased paints to create unique works of art. Is there a growing Picasso in the group?
According to information from the zoo, painting is one of many activities that fall under Animal Enrichment—a program that provides physically and mentally stimulating(增进健康的) activities and environments for the zoo's residents. The animals have the opportunity not only to choose how to behave, but also to use their natural abilities and behaviors in new and exciting ways.
Enrichment is a necessary part of the daily care of the species in the zoo's collection. Keepers carefully study animals' behaviors and determine what kinds of enrichment programs are suitable for each species. Keepers have a number of choices for enrichment. They may change an exhibit, train an animal, introduce new smells, sounds, foods, and objects, or enlist an animal in a research project, such as a study about the skills to search for food or cognitive(认知的) research. Adding a variety of engaging activities helps keepers ensure the zoo's animals have a high quality of life.
Though the subjects of the animals' paintings remain mysterious, visitors to the zoo can support the effort by dropping off canvas(画布), art paper, paint brush or harmless waterbased paints at the Visitor Center for the animal care staff to give to the animals. Zoo keepers are collecting gifts for the animals this holiday season.
Art produced by many of the zoo's residents will be available for purchase at the American Association of Zoo Keepers' Art Show, which will take place next spring. If you are interested, you can also go and buy one.

In order to encourage the students to take outdoor exercise, our school organized a mountainclimbing on April 10. Hundreds of us took part in it.
It was a nice day. At 8：00 a．m., we gathered at the foot of Daqing Mountain and set out for the top in high spirits. All the way we were chatting, singing and laughing, enjoying the fresh air and the beautiful scenery. When some fell behind, others would come and offer help. About 2 hours later, we all reached the top. Bathed in the sunshine, we jumped and cheered with joy.
The activity benefited us a lot. Not only did it get us close to nature and give us relaxation from heavy school work, it also promoted the friendship among us. What a wonderful time!

“The Wizarding World of Harry Potter”is set to open at Universal's Islands of Adventure theme park in late 2009, complete with the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry，the Forbidden Forest，and Hogsmeade village.
“The plans I've seen look incredibly exciting, and I don't think fans of the books or films will feel disappointed，”said author J. K. Rowling, who has been working with a creative team to make sure the park resembles the books and films.
“More than a dozen artists led by Stuart Craig, the production designer of the movies, have set up houses in the studio where the movies are being filmed to make sure every detail is considered，”said Scott Trowbridge of Universal.
The park will let visitors view the famed locations in Rowling's magical world, like Dumbledore's office in Hogwarts and the shops in Hogsmeade. Some locations may be in upcoming (即将出现的) books.
Many tourists outside the theme park said the experience would boost its appeal to younger audience.
Trowbridge said while there would not be any character looking alike at the park, fans wanting to see Harry Potter and his magical friends wouldn't leave disappointed.
“This is Harry's world，”said Trowbridge. “Every fan wants to have an encounter (相遇) with the stars of the show.”
The Harry Potter book series has been translated into 65 languages with more than 325 million copies sold in over 200 territories around the world.

Disney decided to build his park in California, and in 1952 he began to buy land. This proved to be a difficult task, since the land he wanted was owned by no fewer than twenty families. In 1954, he sent four members of his staff around the United States looking for ideas at establishing amusement parks. The only idea on which they found general agreement was that Disney was insane. Owners of other parks said it was impossible to succeed without dangerous rides or using methods that were at least a little dishonest. However, Disney went on with his plans for a clean, safe park, which he decided to call Disneyland.
At last Disneyland was built and opened to the public. Very quickly, it came to be regarded as one of the wonders of the modern world.
Disneyland was a personal satisfaction to Disney. It expressed his ideas of all that is true, good and beautiful in this world. He never tired of visiting the park himself, of expanding it or improving it. Even today, Disneyland is kept spotless(无污点的). Every night, every street and walkway is washed, and workers with knives get down on their hands and knees to scrape out(刮去) chewing gum dropped by visitors.
Disney himself didn't live long enough to visit his Florida park. Death came in December 1966. On the day of his death, this headline appeared in the New York Times：
Walt Disney, 65, dies on coast
Founded an empire(帝国)on a mouse
He was a dreamer who had worked hard to make his dreams come true, and he had brought joy to millions.
文章大意：本文介绍了迪斯尼是怎样建立起自己的迪斯尼帝国的。

D．Disney was not influenced(影响)by others' disagreement at all
答案：D 推理判断题。由第一段可知，别人都认为迪斯尼的做法是不会成功的，但他还是继续自己的计划。
61．In the first paragraph, the word “insane” can be replaced by ________.
A．excited B．mad
C．kind D．interested
答案：B 词义猜测题。 由下一句中的impossible可知，别人都认为这是不可能的。因此insane的含义应和B项mad(疯了)是一致的。

A．In 1954 Disney began to buy land to build his park in California.
B．From the investigation of four members of his staff, his idea was very acceptable.

Drayton Manor in the UK first opened its gates to the public in October, 1949, as an inland pleasure resort and was originally just a normal park with tea rooms, boat rides and a pet's corner. Since then it has grown to become the UK's leading familyrun theme park and the fourth most popular theme park in the UK. The park's motto is “Family Run for Family Run”．
Drayton Manor Theme Park stands in an area of 280 acres and boasts 36 rides in total, including 4 roller coasters and 3 water rides. Within the park is a 15acre zoo which houses over 100 species of animals. Drayton Manor is proud to be the first in the world for some of its rides. For instance, the Apocalypse is the world's first standup tower drop ride and G Force is the world's first X Car Coaster (apart from its original design in Germany)．
If you fancy a camping holiday at Drayton Manor, there is a 75pitch camping and caravan(宿营拖车) site with onsite facilities such as toilets, showers (for the disabled, too), and security. Not only are you situated on the park itself, but you are also close to a large number of other local attractions and facilities.
A day at Drayton Manor is fun for all the family. Unfortunately, there are height restrictions on some of the rides. Children over 1.4 m can ride on all the rides by themselves. Children between 1.4 m and 1 m must be accompanied by an adult to enjoy some rides. There are several rides which children shorter than 1 m are not allowed to ride on. There are numerous places to eat and drink, so you will never need to go hungry. And for the smaller children at Drayton Manor, there is Robinson's Land which had some big events happening in 2010.
All in all, Drayton Manor has something for the whole family and is well worth a family day trip this summer. For opening times and ticket prices, check out Drayton Manor Home Page.

At the Smithsonian's National Zoo, animals are getting their paws dirty with harmless waterbased paints to create unique works of art. Is there a growing Picasso in the group?
According to information from the zoo, painting is one of many activities that fall under Animal Enrichment—a program that provides physically and mentally stimulating(增进健康的) activities and environments for the zoo's residents. The animals have the opportunity not only to choose how to behave, but also to use their natural abilities and behaviors in new and exciting ways.
Enrichment is a necessary part of the daily care of the species in the zoo's collection. Keepers carefully study animals' behaviors and determine what kinds of enrichment programs are suitable for each species. Keepers have a number of choices for enrichment. They may change an exhibit, train an animal, introduce new smells, sounds, foods, and objects, or enlist an animal in a research project, such as a study about the skills to search for food or cognitive(认知的) research. Adding a variety of engaging activities helps keepers ensure the zoo's animals have a high quality of life.
Though the subjects of the animals' paintings remain mysterious, visitors to the zoo can support the effort by dropping off canvas(画布), art paper, paint brush or harmless waterbased paints at the Visitor Center for the animal care staff to give to the animals. Zoo keepers are collecting gifts for the animals this holiday season.
Art produced by many of the zoo's residents will be available for purchase at the American Association of Zoo Keepers' Art Show, which will take place next spring. If you are interested, you can also go and buy one.

In order to encourage the students to take outdoor exercise, our school organized a mountainclimbing on April 10. Hundreds of us took part in it.
It was a nice day. At 8：00 a．m., we gathered at the foot of Daqing Mountain and set out for the top in high spirits. All the way we were chatting, singing and laughing, enjoying the fresh air and the beautiful scenery. When some fell behind, others would come and offer help. About 2 hours later, we all reached the top. Bathed in the sunshine, we jumped and cheered with joy.
The activity benefited us a lot. Not only did it get us close to nature and give us relaxation from heavy school work, it also promoted the friendship among us. What a wonderful time!
