For six hours we shot through the landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I'd bought in a market in Mozambique.
Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometer from clean water.
As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty -- we of dust rising behind them -- brown, muscular horses almost close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn't know how long they had been there next to us.
I shouted to Dan: "Look!", but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet. They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
"Wild horses?" he said. "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds."
"Are you sure you didn't dream it?"
"You were the one who was sleeping!"
“Typical, ”he said. "The best photos are the ones we never take."
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
59. During their journey in Africa, the two travelers________
A. recorded their experiences in different ways
B. complained about the poor living conditions
C. enjoyed the sunset in the Karoo desert most
D. made friends with local residents
60. What does the phrase "heroic forms" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Racing cars. B. Eye-catching locals. C. Wild horses. D. Running dogs.
61. What did Daniel think when he woke up and was told what had happened?
A. He had already taken beautiful pictures. B. He always missed out on the best thing.
C. A sound sleep was more important. D. The next trip would be better.
62. What is 'the passage mainly about?
A. How to view wildlife in Africa. B. Tourist attractions in southern Africa.
C. Running into wildlife in Africa. D. Possible dangers of travelling in the desert.

After moving to the United States, immigrant groups trying to fit in tend to choose high calorie fatty foods in an attempt to appear more American，a new study finds．That's one reason why immigrants approach US levels of obesity（肥胖）within 15 years of moving to America．
The researchers also did an experiment that measured whether or not the threat of appearing un-American influenced respondents' food choices．After being questioned about their ability to speak English，75 percent of Asian-Americans identified a typical American food as their favorite. Only 25 percent of Asian-Americans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same.
When their American identity was called into question during a follow-up study, participate in the study. Those who chose the more typical American fare ended up consuming an extra 182 calories，including 12 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat（饱和脂肪）.
"People who feel like they need to prove they belong to a culture will change their habits in an attempt to fit in，"said Sauna Cheryan，an author of the study and assistant professor of psychology at the University of Washington." If immigrants and their children choose unhealthy American foods over healthier traditional foods across their lives，this process of fitting in could lead to poorer health." Cheryan added．
Social pressures，the study concluded, are at the heart of the problem．"In American society today, being American is associated with being white．Americans，who don't fit this image even if they were born here and speak English，feel that pressure to prove that they're American," said Cheryan．
63. The author wants to show that __________.
A. more and more Asians enjoy high-calorie snacks
B. most Americans are at the risk of heart disease
C. immigrants tend to eat American junk food to fit in
D. all the American people have a bad eating habit
64. According to the survey, __________.
A. Asian-Americans care less about their health
B. 25 percent of Americans like junk food
C. immigrants are forced to eat junk food
D. choosing food is related to Asian-Americans' situation
65. The underlined word "fare" in Paragraph 3 most probably means" __________".
A. a person taking a taxi B. food offered as a meal
C. money spent on food D. an arranged thing to do
66. According to Sauna Cheryan, __________.
A. what immigrants have done is ridiculous
B. American traditional foods are healthier
C. American culture affects immigrants deeply
D. immigrants risk their health in order to fit in
67. Which of the following should take the blame for the bad eating habit?
A. The pressures from society. B. The traditional culture.
C. The American government. D. The situation of employment.

Talk to yourself
It may be obvious, but the best way to get better at a language is to speak it. Even if there is no one around to speak to, talk to yourself. Name things as you pass them – chair, television, cat, tree, school. Learn basic phrases like – ‘it is cold today’ or ‘it is sunny today’ and use whichever is appropriate when you first look out of the window. This simple language learning tip will help this everyday vocabulary sink in and become second nature.
