Unit 5 Theme parks reading课时作业

Ⅰ.完形填空

　　I have two friends who love backpacking. They spent a lot of time in a part of New York State's Adirondack Mountains. It __1__ 46 mountains with a height of over 4,000 feet. The Adirondack Mountain Club gives __2__ recognition and an award to anyone who __3__ all 46 mountains. My two friends decided to go for this award.

　　Now what you have to understand is that __4__ many of the 46 mountains have well­marked __5__ to their summits (山顶), others are not marked at all. You have to "bushwhack (在丛林中开路)" using a compass and a map.

　　My friends had climbed 45 of the mountains. They had just one __6__ - it was the most __7__， requiring bushwhacking. A hiking path led past the base of the mountain, but from that point they were on their own.

　　Early one morning they left their __8__ and walked five miles on the hiking path to the base of a chain of mountains. When they arrived, they __9__ that they had left their compass and map in the camp. Rather than __10__ the camp, they decided to bushwhack without the compass and map.

　　For hours they __11__ uphill experiencing the enduring heat, thick bushes, and black flies. __12__， in the late afternoon they found themselves at the __13__ of a mountain successfully. They were exhausted but __14__.

　　The feeling was short­lived, however. When they looked across the valley, they __15__ another higher mountain. They had climbed the __16__ one! It was too __17__ that weekend to correct their error. They had to __18__ another four months to climb the right mountain.

　　This story __19__ us a good lesson. Often in life we put in a great effort to reach a goal. But without the right "map" and "compass"， it is __20__ to get "lost"．
