23、Petra may be the treasure of the world, hidden among mountains. Its most beautiful scenery makes it the greatest ancient site stillstanding nowadays. Common sense says, “Perhaps there’s nothing on the planet that resembles it.” Without doubt, there’s nothing on the world that resembles it. The rockcarved (雕刻的) rosered town of Petra is filled with mysterious charm; it had been “designed to strike wonder into all who entered it”.
Petra is the most wellknown and beautiful site in Jordan that is about 262 km south of Amman, and 133 km north of Aqaba. The Dead Sea is 80 kilometers north of it. It was the legacy from the Nabataeans, who settled in the southwest of Jordan a lot more than 2,000 years back. Because of its excellent culture, buildings and many water channels, Petra has become a UNESCO world heritage site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World that attracts visitors all over the world.
To get there, you must pass through a kilometer long, cool, dark and narrow gorge (峡谷) whose two high sides keep the sunlight out. Suddenly the gorge opens right into a natural square covered with Petra’s most wellknown monuments (遗址), which glow in the bright sun. The old town shows the visitors its beautiful look. It leads people to think about the creativity of the Nabataeans who made Petra as their capital.
Petra flourished for more than 400 years at about the time of Rome until it had been occupied through the Roman legions in 106 AD. Petra has 800 monuments, including buildings, tombs, baths, halls, temples, and streets, which were mostly carved in the pretty sandstone.
Petra sights are in their finest at the beginning of morning and late afternoon. Once the sun warms the colorful stones, you will see the greatness of Petra since it was seen first when discovered in 1812 after being lost through the 16th century for nearly 300 years!
【1】What does the underlined part “mysterious charm” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．The unbelievable power to attract people.
B．All kinds of visitors from the world.
C．A number of usual places of interest.
D．The shops, restaurants and hotels.
【2】Visitors’ reaching Petra ________.
A．must be disappointed

24、It is early 5:30 a. m. I am seated in a restaurant near my gate, considering breakfast. You are seated at the bar. I hear the waitress tell you that she is forbidden to serve alcohol until 6 a. m. You look at your watches and say you’ll wait.
Then a young girl appears and sits between the two of you. From the way you interact, I guess that she is your daughter. I watch her spin on the bar stool. Then she jumps up and enters a newsstand. In a few minutes, she returns with a purchase. You check your watches. I watch your daughter put her head down on the bar for a few moments. At 6:00, the waitress ceremoniously serves you beer. Your daughter twirls again.
And then I wonder judgmentally “What is going on here? What are you doing here at a bar at 6:00 a.m. with your young daughter at your side?” My next thought, in an effort to be more charitable, is “What happened that made you want to drink at a time and in a way that would likely raise a lot of eyebrows?”
Adults, of course, are free to do as they choose. But you are here with your young daughter. Has it crossed your mind that you are quite possibly influencing her future drinking behavior?
For better or worse, many life lessons are “caught” rather than taught. Kids have a way of learning the things we never get around to talking about with them—and they learn from watching us. From the time they learn to walk, our children are observing and imitating us. The truth is that the best way to teach children any healthy behavior is to model it ourselves.
To the parents at the bar, look into the mirror hanging over that bar and try to see what I see—a beautiful young girl, watching you and looking for clues on how to best live her adult life. You are her most influential teachers. Teach her well.
【1】What do the parents do in the early morning?
A．Drink beer.
B．Have breakfast.
C．Wait for a friend.
D．Play with their kid.
【2】What does the underlined part “raise a lot of eyebrows” in the text mean?
A．Cheer others up.
B．Waste much time.
C．Shock many people.
D．Make one feel better.
【3】What is the author’s attitude towards the girl?
A．Worried.
B．Tolerant.
C．Admiring.
D．Disapproving.
【4】What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To thank a family.
B．To praise a pretty girl.
C．To tell an interesting story.
D．To criticize a girl’s parents.
