1 . 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Where the Sidewalk Ends is a book full of fascinating poems written     1     Shel Silverstein. It contains more than 100 of all kinds of poems-some are happy, some are funny and some are     2     (excite). Each poem comes with a nice drawing by the author     3     (he). Some of the pictures are very silly.

My favourite poem     4     (call) Snowman. It is about     5     happy snowman, which always wants to see July. Other animals say that he will melt (融化) by then. But the snowman wants to see July so     6     (bad) that no matter what other people say, it does not bother the snowman one bit. This poem never says if he actually sees July. So you can only guess.

Another poem I really like is Santa and the reindeer. This poem is about Christmas. Santa has to give     7     (variety) presents to the children while one of his reindeer is always asking what’s for him. I guess Santa gets really annoyed because he puts a flea (虱子) in the reindeer’s ear. And the next thing you know, they fly away and are ready     8     (continue) their journey through the world handing out presents to all the children     9     have behaved well.

This book is fun to read because of all those unique poems. The     10     (character) of this book do many unusual things such as selling sisters, talking to fish and a lot more.

3 . From the gardens of Iceland to the mountains of Nepal, here are four places to celebrate abundance and beauty in the natural world.

Keukenhof Gardens, the Netherlands

The Netherlands produces nearly 90% of the world's tulips, making it the unique destination for a wonderful spring experience. Cycle along the 25-mile Flower Route, where flower fields paint the countryside in bright colors. Travelers can also visit Keukenhof Gardens 16 miles southwest of Amsterdam. Considered the world's largest flower garden, Keukenhof features seven million flowering tulips from March to May.

Umm Qais, Jordan

Despite being 75% desert, Jordan's northern highlands burst with brightly colored flowers from March to May. Take a self-guided hike on one of the several ancient trails starting from the ruins of Umm Qais or hire a local guide who can offer cultural and historical context and help you identify wildflowers along the way, including Jordan's endangered national flower, the black iris.

Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina

Travelers can find a wealth of plant species in North Carolina's mountains—the most in any similarly sized area in North America. The best known may be the pink and purple rhododendrons that blanket the Blue Ridge Mountains in summer.

Numerous hiking trails leading to the amazing sights are just 30 miles from downtown Asheville. In June, travelers can take the hour-long drive from Asheville to Bakersville to enjoy the North Carolina Rhododendron Festival.

Ghorepani Poon Hill, Nepal

Travelling along the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek in spring offers breathtaking views of the country's iconic rhododendrons. March or April gives travelers the rhododendrons in full bloom, but November gives drier weather. Go with local Sherpa guides and cooks—it's part of the experience.
