    　　Rock climbing(攀岩)did not become a sport until late in the 1900s．But now it has become a popular outdoor activity．While rock climbing may still be necessary for mountain climbing, most people just climb low mountains for fun．

    　　If you have ever done rock climbing, you will know that it is not a very easy sport．Indoor and outdoor rock climbing both need practice．What most people don' t know is that rock climbing is one of the sports that depend on your body and mind(意志)．

    　　To climb successfully, one must use wonderful skills(技能)．One of the important rules is to always have three parts of your body on the rock face．Another important rule is that your arms only hold you close to the rock face while your legs are pushing(推)you up, the closer you are to the rock face, the easier it is to climb．

    　　Rock climbing is a wonderful sport．Once you start to learn how to climb, you'll find more fun．People who like games such as chess playing or problem-solving may love rock climbing, because they are nearly the same in the way of thinking．For anyone who wants to get into beautiful shape(体形), rock climbing is a fun and good way．Anyone who enjoys a difficult game and loves the outdoors should think of taking rock climbing as a new hobby．

    　　Hueco Tanks State Historical Park is home to thousands of Native American paintings and drawings．Ancient works of rock art dating back thousands of years lie within caves hidden in the hills．The paintings at Hueco Tanks have lasted for centuries．

    　　The walls tell stories of many people and many times for at least 10, 000 years．Several different groups of people have traveled through and lived in the area．These groups often left their mark with rock paintings and drawings．Scientists have studied these ancient works of art to learn more about the people who made them．Scientists believe that around 6, 000 BC a group now known as the Desert Archaic people occupied(占有)the area．The earliest of their drawings are simple wavy and straight lines．Later drawings show scenes of people holding spears(矛)while deer and other animals run around them．

    　　Around 1, 000 AD the Mogollon people lived in the area．The Mogollon were farmers．More than most farmers, the Mogollon valued water．For them water held great meaning．This group of farmers painted many pictures of water flowing over the land and rain with lightning．

    　　The Mescalero Apaches created some of the most recent rock art at Hueco Tanks．They stayed in the area for a short time around 1, 600 AD．Spanish explorers had arrived in North America by this time．Many of the cave paintings from this period show Spanish soldiers on horses．

    　　In 1849 the California Gold Rush was well under way．Some people traveled through hot, dry West Texas as they made their way to California’s goldfields．Hueco Tanks provided water and shade(阴凉处)for these travelers．Many of these travelers put their names and dates on the rocks at Hueco Tanks．These writings are still found on the rocks today．

    　　In May 1970 Hueco Tanks was made a state park, giving the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department control of the area．

    　　The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is using technology to help take care of the rock art．By studying these works of art, visitors and scientists can learn much about the lives of some early Native Americans．

    　　Comets(彗星)are parts of our solar system(太阳系)．Like the planets, they go around the sun．

    　　But comets are not made of solid rock like planets．A comet is a ball of dust, stones, and ice．Many people call comets dirty snowballs．

    　　The “snowball” may be only a few miles across．But when the sun heats the “snowball,” much of it is changed to gases．The gases spread out and form the comet’s head, which may be thousands of miles across．

    　　***

    　　A comet moves fast in its trip around the sun．But when we see it, the comet does not seem to move．That’s because it is so far away．The moon moves fast, but when you look at it, you can’t see any motion．That’s because the moon is far away．

    　　So comets do not rush across the sky．You cannot see any motion．But if you look night after night, you can see that a comet changes position among the stars．If you watch the moon night after night, you’ll see that it also changes position．

    　　Each year astronomers discover new comets．Some of them are seen only

    　　once．They make one trip around the sun and then go way out into space．The sun’s gravity(重力、引力)cannot hold them．

    　　Other comets, like Halley, keep returning．They have been captured by the sun．Halley’s earliest visit was probably 3,000 years ago．It may keep returning for another 3,000 years．

    　　But every time a comet goes around the sun, the comet loses part of itself．Gases and dust are pulled out of the comet．That’s why Halley is now dimmer than it used to be．Next time it visits us, in 2062, it may be even dimmer．Each visit it may get dimmer and dimmer, until it finally disappears．

    (1)

    What is this passage mostly about?

    [　　]

    A．

    Comets and the sun．

    B．

    Why comets are like snowballs．

    C．

    Who discovered the first comet．

    D．

    Facts about comets．

    A．

    The comets are rushing into the sun．

    B．

    The comets have been brightened by the sun．

    C．

    The comets are stuck in the sun’s gravity．

    D．

    The comets have been burned by the sun’s heat．

    (3)

    How does the author help the reader understand what a comet looks like?

    [　　]

    A．

    By telling about a famous one．

    B．

    By explaining how far away it is．

    C．

    By describing how fast it moves．

    D．

    (4)
