over 1,100 miles of land, it stretches across the western slopes (斜坡) of the Sierra Nevada mountains.
So it supports a wide variety of biological diversity (生物多样性).
When exploring Yosemite, it"s important to understand that you will see all sorts of wildlife, perhaps
even some of the more exotic if you"re lucky. If you"re the type of person who loves camping and being outdoors, go on an overnight or several days" backpacking trip, hike up to the falls, try out some rock
climbing, go biking and generally enjoy the amazing beauty of Yosemite.
If you"re a person who doesn"t really like nature or enjoys it from a distance, Yosemite still offers many great opportunities. Stay in the luxurious Yosemite hotel and walk to the neighboring village to try an ice
skate. Check out the mall museum and go on several guided tours.
Some must-see places in Yosemite include: El Capitan, one of the most famous rock-climbing areas in
the world; Yosemite Falls, easily the highest waterfall in North America at 2,425 ft; Ribbon Falls, the
longest single-drop water fall in the US at 1,612 ft; Mount Lyell, the highest point in the park, and many
other amazing sights.
Thus Yosemite truly has something for everyone. If you have a chance, it"s worth a visit, but events like swimming and boating are only available late spring through summer. In winter, there"s cross-country

can"t even remember what happened.
In the past nine years, I"ve seen her twice, and each time we"ve been polite but distant. And that
troubles me because we were once inseparable. I"d like nothing more than to go back nine years, and
continue our friendship. But how? How do you reconnect with friends you"ve lost throughout the years?
Linking to your past
The desire to reconnect with lost friends isn"t unusual. Why? Because friends link us to the past.
"Friends from years ago are custodians (监护人) of our past," says Sandy Sheehy.
Although you can share information about your past with friends you"ve met recently, you don"t
have a shared history with them. So you wind up only telling them about your past, rather than sharing
it with them.
But many people never try to reconnect. Women especially have trouble taking the first step. Shyness
or fear that the other person doesn"t want to reconnect often stops many women. And that shouldn"t be.
Your friends probably want to be in touch with you as much as you want to be in touch with them.
Searching for friends
Fortunately, finding lost friends isn"t as difficult as it once was, thanks to tools like the Internet. Our
experts offer these suggestions for locating contact information:
Search Internet sites designed to locate people like classmates.com and switchboard.com.
Contact your high school or college alumni (校友) office to request current address information.
Surf online yellow pages. Check current phone records from your friend"s hometown.
Network with other friends who might have known your friend.
Get in touch with any of her relatives, if you know where they live. If you know where she works,
find the company"s website and search the directory of personnel.

C. Regret and shame.
D. Fear and shyness.
B. By searching your friends"telephone number on the Net.
C. By asking the local post office about your friends"new address.

There are, however, a few things that are best left at home. Here are a few things to forget when you"re
traveling with pets. Forgetting them will make your trip run more smoothly and more effectively.
Time
Traveling with pets will take longer and will have unexpected turns. In reality, forgetting about time
means leaving impatience behind. Don"t be in a rush. Your pets will require more extra stops than you will,
and they"ll often surprise you with unpredictable delays. Plan on leaving early and arriving later and you"ll
be right on time.
Anger
Getting angry at the delay will only make matters worse. Your feelings can add unnecessary stresses
to you and your pets" travel experience. If you feel yourself becoming out of control, stop and take a deep
breath. Your pets have little control over their emotions, bowel movements, or motion sickness when
traveling. Remember to be kind and understanding at all times, especially when under pressure.
Work Attitude
This may seem like a no-brainer, but when you are traveling, leave your work attitude behind. Traveling
is not a task to be accomplished; it can be an enjoyable and memorable experience for both you and your
pets as long as you have the right attitude.
Control
Part of the joy of traveling with pets is dealing with the unexpected. You can"t control everything and
trying to do so will only end in frustration (挫败) and anger. Knowing that things will happen beyond your
control will bring great relief to you and your pets. Messes happen; accidents happen. Once you accept
that, traveling with your pets will be far easier to manage.
Selfishness
Traveling with pets often requires an extreme amount of selflessness. Your pets rely on you to take
care of their needs, and sometimes you will need to put their needs before your own. Leave your selfish
bitions behind when traveling with your pets. They need your attention and care more than anything else
because of the stresses and strains of traveling.
Traveling with pets can and will be a joy if you remember to leave these five items behind. It can be
difficult at times to handle, but the traveling will go well if you can manage to do so.
| Benefit | You"ll have a(n) 2 and more effective trip by following the tips. | |

| How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and old people wishing they were young again! Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child - things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents. He is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society. | ||

| 2. After a child grows up, he _____. | ||
| A. will have little time playing B. has to be successful in finding a job C. can still ask for help in time of trouble D. should be able to take care of himself | ||
