(像珍·古道尔一样，在乌干达的丛林里与濒临灭绝的黑猩猩一起旅行。)”以及本段中“YouwillbeputtingyourtourismdollarstowardhelpingprotecttheanimalsthroughaseriesofprotectionprojectswithJaneGoodallInstitute.(你将把你的旅游收入用于帮助保护动物，通过简·古道尔研究所的一系列保护项目。)”可知，在该公园中旅行既可以帮助保护动物也可以在乌干达的丛林里旅行。故选A。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据HiketotheIceland’seruptingvolcano(活火山),Iceland部分中“Bookthistripfasttocatchtheeruptionbecausenooneknowshowlongitwillcontinue,ortryiceclimbingSkaftafell,thehighestmountaininIceland－noexperiencenecessary.(赶紧预订这趟旅行，赶上火山喷发，因为没人知道它会持续多久，或者试试爬冰岛最高峰斯卡夫塔瀑布——不需要任何经验。)”可知，在本次旅行中不确定火山喷发会持续多久，因此现在应该观察火山喷发。故选C。【23题详解】推理判断题。通读全文，文章主要介绍的是四个旅游路线，因此推断文章出自于报纸的旅游部分。故选D。BTheWorld’soldestpenpalshavebothturned100after84yearsoftransatlantic(跨大洋)letters.GeoffBanksfromHoniton,Devon,UKandCelestaByrne,fromtheUS,startedwritingtoeachotheragedjust16in1938.TheymetaspartofaneducationalprojecttoputBritishandAmericanstudentsincontact－and84yearslatertheyarestillcontacting.Geoff,aretiredengineer,said,“Ican’tquiterememberhowwegotintouch,butIwastalkingtoCelestarecentlyandIthinkitwassomethingtodowithanAmericanschool’splan,whichmatchedusupwithAmericansforapenpalrelationship,andsomehowIendedupwiththisletterfromanAmericangirl,andwejustkeptcontactingeversince.Therewereacoupleofyearswhenwetriedveryhardtokeepintouchbecauseofthewar.Nowofcoursesheispoorlysighted,soIcontactmainlybyemailtooneofherdaughterswholivesnearby.EmailismucheasierformethesedaystoobecauseIcan’twriteverywellanymore.Wejusttalkaboutdailylivesandourfamilies.She’salwaysbeentheretowriteto,evenifitwasjustbirthdaycardsandChristmascards.”Thoughhavingchattedforover80years,thepairhasonlyevermettwice－firstin2002whileGeoffvisitedNewYork,andthentwoyearslater.Geoffisnowagreatgrandfather,havingthreesonssettlingacrosstheworldandmanymoregrandchildren.“IhavethisnewthingcalledZoomIthinknowtochatwithher,butIleaveallthetechnologytoyoungerpeople.They’remuchbetteratpressingallthebuttons.”24.WhatmaybringGeoffandCelestatobepenpals?A.Theworldwar.
