Here’s a look at our four favorite state parks in Colorado，and what to do at each one.
Eleven Mile State Park
Eleven Mile State Park is about 40 miles west of Colorado Springs.The highlight here is a
huge reservoir(水库) and nearby wetlands that are a huge draw to boaters，fishers，paddlers，and
windsurfers.While you can’t go swimming，you can go sailing or kayaking.Even in winter，
Eleven Mile is big for fishing.It hosts an annual，statewide ice fishing tournament.
Roxborough State Park
Roxborough State Park is where to go for the natural unique scenery.The park is home to 300-
million-year-old red sandstone formations.They appear from the earth at a shocking 60-degree
angle that makes you wonder how they don’t fall down.With dramatic geological masterpieces，
it is no surprise that this is one of Colorado’s official National Natural Landmarks.
State Forest State Park
If you want to spot a moose(驼鹿) (safely，from a distance)，explore the 71,000-acre State
Forest State Park in the small town of Walden.The State Forest State Park is Colorado’s moose
capital，home to more than 600 of the big guys.Moose aren’t the only attraction in this large，
adventure-filled park.It’s also home to black bears and elk(麋鹿)．It has lakes and lots of
trails(about 90 miles of hiking trails，plus more for biking)，and to top it all off，there are sand
dunes here.
Eldorado Canyon State Park
Eldorado Canyon is a super popular rock-climbing destination just outside of the city of
Boulder.This mountainous state park features 1,000 different technical climbing routes.It’s well
known in the climbing community.The routes are accessible to all levels and open during daylight.

From crystal-blue lakes to snow-capped mountains and thousand-year-old trees，Canada’s
nature is admired around the world.Now it might also be just what the doctor ordered.An ambitious
new programme allows doctors to write prescriptions(处方) for free annual passes to Canada’s
national parks，encouraging their patients to improve their health—both mental and physical—by
taking a stroll in nature.
The prescriptions are provided by PaRX，in partnership with Parks Canada.The first passes
were handed out last month，giving holders access to more than 80 national parks，historic sites
and nature reserves.PaRX，a health initiative(倡议) launched in 2019 by the British Columbia
Parks Foundation，notes on its website that spending time in nature can lead to longer lives，
increased energy，reduced stress and anxiety，improved heart health，less pain and better
mood.Vitamin D from the sun’s rays has proven health benefits.The organization also hopes that
the prescriptions will boost investment in conservation in Canada.
The initial provision covers four Canadian provinces：British Columbia，Saskatchewan，
Ontario and Manitoba.Participating doctors have only 100 annual passes to hand out for now，but
PaRX hopes that the programme will be expanded.
“Medical research now clearly shows the positive health benefits of connecting with
nature，” Steven Guilbeault，the environment minister，said.“I am confident this programme
will quickly show its enormous value to the well-being of patients as it continues to expand
throughout the country.”
Canada’s physicians are already in the habit of prescribing “nature therapy” as a
treatment for anxiety，depression，high blood pressure，immune function and insomnia(失眠)．
Previously，though，they would write more general prescriptions，such as spending time in
nature twice a week，for at least 20 minutes at a time.This is the first time that they have been able
to equip their patients with tickets.
4．Why does the author mention Canada’s nature in paragraph 1?
A．To recommend doctors’ prescriptions.
B．To advertise Canada’s natural scenery.
C．To introduce a health initiative program.
D．To demonstrate health benefits of nature.
5．What makes the prescriptions significant?
A．A boom in park visiting.
B．A rise in economy.
C．Investment in conservation.
D．Improvement in health.6．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Patients doubt the general prescriptions.
B．The previous “nature therapy” is popular.
C．It is a tradition to offer patients park tickets.
D．“Nature therapy” is no longer just on paper.
7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Nature Heals Mental Diseases
B．Canada Possesses Admirable Nature
C．Doctors Order a Walk in the Wilderness
D．Canadian Doctors Have Free Access to Parks

Some events have been added to the 2024 Olympics，with surfing，breakdancing and sport
climbing among the recent additions.With them come a group of terms that are foreign to the
French language.For some French-language purists，it’s too much to bear to rely on English to
praise surfers on their “noseriding”—standing on the front of the board.They’ve decided they
need a French solution.
The French government has created a team of language experts devoted to promoting the
national language.They will meet periodically over the next couple of years to identify and define
new sports terms.The French battle against the influence of other languages isn’t new.In 1994，
the Toubon law was passed，forcing the use of French in all government publications，contracts
and advertisements.Yet it contained several loopholes，which allow brands and companies to
extensively use English.As a result，Anglicisms are becoming more obvious.
Julie Neveux，professor of linguistics at Sorbonne University in Paris，said Anglicisms are
“sometimes estimated at just under 5% of the present vocabulary，but they are disturbing
because they show that we follow an economic and cultural model other than our own”．They are
particularly present in sports competitions and events，during which athletes from around the
world are used to communicating in English.“Sport was one of the first areas to be
globalized，”said sports historian Michael Attali.“This phenomenon has strengthened English as
the official language.”
Despite their best efforts，no committee has successfully prevented English from infiltrating
everyday language.By the time French officials agreed on a translation and its definition，the
English version has already spread throughout the nation.“Similar committees have been put in
place in the past，but nothing has changed so far，”said Attali.
“There are far fewer Anglicisms in French than there are French words in English，”said
Neveux.Adding these exchanges should not be seen as a threat.“All living languages exist by
borrowing from each other.Languages only exist thanks to their impurity.”8．What will a team of language experts do?
A．Promote the spread of French in the world.
B．Decide upon some new sports terms.
C．Bring English and French together.
D．Make French much purer.
9．What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A．Anglicisms.
B．English words.
C．French words.
D．Newly created words.
10．What’s the result of previous efforts to stop English from infiltrating French?
A．Unimportant. B．Successful.
C．Fruitless. D．Unmentioned.
11．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．English is more popular than French.
B．All languages should be preserved.
C．The exchanges between two languages can be avoided.
D．Neveux is positive about the impurity of language.
