Learn all about the world of building and maintaining hiking trails, and experience it in a safe, teamwork-oriented environment in various locations across the state. WTA offers first-time participants country trips and returning students have the option to go on trips in the back country(边远地区).‎ Front Country Trips Our front country trips provide opportunities for people to experience projects near the ocean, in the scenic Cascade Mountains and in northeast Washington. All our trips provide you with experienced crew leaders, a great project, some camping tents, sleeping bags and all your meals for the week.‎ Advanced Back Country Trips On these trips you will be backpacking to the work site and will have a chance to advance your trail and leadership skills under the supervision of a WTA crew leader. Approval from a previous crew leader is necessary.‎ Trip Details In 2014, trip fees for WTA members will be $195 for the first trip and $145 for each additional trip. Non-members will pay an additional $40 for their first trip and can be qualified to be members in the second trip. Due to the popularity of our trips, please submit your payment and application within two weeks of signing up for a trip. If a trip is full and you would like to be added to the waiting list, please ‎ call us at 206/625-1367 or email trail-teams@wta.org.‎ Scholarships We believe no student should have to stay at home this summer because he or she can’t afford to go outside. Thanks to donations from members and supporters, WTA is proud to announce that we are able to offer a limited number of scholarships. Application deadline: March 1, 2014.‎ ‎2014 Youth Volunteer Vacation You must be 14 to 18 years old to go on one of our Youth Volunteer Vacations.

The seal takes several deep breaths, and then she opens her mouth and turns her head from side to side. With her teeth, she scrapes（刮掉）off bits of ice. Seals are mammals, and they need to breathe air. So seals use their teeth to make sure their breathing holes stay open. ‎ The seal makes the hole bigger. When she can fit her large body through it, she jumps out onto the ice--she is getting ready to have a baby. On the ice shelf, the seal gives birth to a pup(小海豹). The pup is about three feet long and is covered with thick fur that protects it from the cold wind. The pup drinks its mother’s milk and grows quickly. Under the seal’s skin is a thick layer of fat called blubber, which keeps the seal warm in the frozen world.‎ When the pup is about two weeks old, it begins to dive with its mother. They slide through the breathing hole into the water below the ice, where the pup learns to swim, diving deeper and deeper. In order to stay underwater, it must learn to hold its breath and control its heart rate.‎ Below the ice, the sun shines brightly through the hole. Finding the opening to breathe is easy, but getting back onto the slippery ice can be difficult for a young seal. With practice and its mother’s help, the pup soon feels at home both on the ice and under it.‎ The young seal spends more and more time below the ice, where it learns to hunt for food. The mother shows her pup how to catch fish, squid and octopuses. These are important lessons. When the pup is about two months old, it will have to feed itself. When the pup becomes an adult, it will swim farther out in search of food，but it ‎ will always live on or under the ice.‎ ‎6. What do you learn about the summer in Antarctica?‎ A. It is not dark at all at night. B. There in no ice on the sea.‎ C. It is often rainy and windy. D. Days are longer than nights.‎ ‎7. What keeps the seal warm in the cold sea?‎ A. Milk. B. Blubber. C. Skins. D. Hearts.‎ ‎8. We can infer that octopuses are a kind of_______.‎ A. large predator B. body fat C. sea ice D. sea creature C Robots that can chat, find misplaced glasses, draw aeroplanes and play with your children are  attracting thousands of visitors during an expo in Tokyo as Japan adapts to changes in society. Robots, such as the sound, sensitive Chapit, answer simple questions and even joke with  people to help them fight loneliness and stay alert in old age. Japan has one of the world’s fastest-ageing societies and the government predicts that by 2050  the proportion of people over 65 will reach 40 percent. “Many older people in Japan live alone and have no one to talk to, ”said Kazuya Kitamura representative of the expo organizer. “Communication robots accompany people and don’t mind listening to the same stories over and over again. ” Matsumoto’s “Personal Mobility Robot”, equipped with four cameras and a sensor to  recognize the user's centre of gravity, is designed to help elderly move around without pressing buttons, using joysticks(操纵杆) or rotating wheels as in traditional wheelchairs. The robot can also help find misplaced glasses by identifying them with a sensor. Other robots, such as the award-winning “DiGRO” can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children. The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictures, keeping children company while parents work. While Chapit, a relatively simple robot, managed to attract a corporate partner, Kiyoshi Matsumoto, a professor at the University‎ of ‎Tokyo, struggling to attract sponsors for more expensive projects.‎ ‎ “We have developed a robot that can assist many people, but we still haven’t found a sponsor,”said Matsumoto, who added that the cost of the machine, if mass-produced, would be comparable to that of a car. “In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project,” he said.‎ 9. It can be inferred from the text that ________.‎ A. many children lack love from parents B. robots helpful to the old will be in great demand C. robots are the most useful to children D. robots do better than people in healthcare 10. It is difficult to find sponsors for robots because _______.‎ A. Japan‎ is suffering economy depression B. The robots are of poor design C. The production of robots costs a lot D. The future market is worrying 11. What is the author’s attitude towards the robots referred to ?‎ A. Unsatisfied B. Doubtful B. Favourable D. Regretful D When Columbus “sailed the ocean blue in 1492” he wasn’t looking for America. He was searching for a route from Spain to China; America just got in the way.‎ The Spanish were after the riches of Asia: silk, dates, spices. Until later adventurers discovered how to sail to the Far East, trade with China depended on the Silk Road. The trade between China and Europe brought huge wealth, so the Spanish had a strong desire to find a new way to the East. Eventually a way appeared; as sea traffic developed from the 17th Century onwards, the overland route diminished.‎ Now China is seeking to revive(复兴) the Silk Road and is preparing to invest 4 trillion pounds in new roads, rail links, oil pipelines and other basic facilities. It is hoped that goods can be shipped westwards by land far more quickly and economically than by sea.‎ But the plan is also to attract more tourists. Actually, China does pretty well for tourists already; it’s the world’s fourth most visited country. Two cities—Beijing and Shanghai—possess the tourism business, with significant ‎ interest in destinations such as Xi’an and Chengdu. While Beijing is modern, cities such as Lanzhou and Dunhuang have one foot planted firmly in old China.‎ Other places featured include Xi’an, the former capital of China, where you can come face to face with the Terracotta Army built to protect China’s first emperor in the afterlife. From Lanzhou tour members take the train to Jiayuguan, China’s western gateway and a key location on the Silk Road.‎ There is also a fourday coach journey along the original Silk Route through the Xinjiang region to Kashgar. Along the way, at Kurla, you can visit the ruins of the Iron Fortress.‎ 9. What does the underlined word“diminished” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A．Discovered.　　　　　　 B．Disappeared.‎ C．Disturbed. D．Displayed.‎ ‎13. What is the purpose of reviving the Silk Road?‎ A．To rebuild the ruins of the Iron Fortress.‎ B．To construct new roads and other basic structures.‎ C．To make transportation westwards faster and cheaper.‎ D．To draw more inland tourists’ attention to the western gateway.‎ ‎14. What can we learn about the Silk Road?‎ A．It is nothing but a trade route.‎ B．It may destroy some cities’ ancient style.‎ C．It attracts foreign investment of 4 trillion.‎ D．It promotes the tourism industry of China.‎ ‎15. What is the best title for the text?‎ A．The Charming of the ‎Silk Road B．The Function of the ‎Silk Road C．The Origin of the ‎Silk Road D．The Future of the Silk Road ‎ 第二节 （共5小题 每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Getting along with parents Mom and dad are the most important people in your life, and they’re likely to ‎ influence you more than anyone else in your lifetime. It’s a parent’s job to love and ‎ guide kids, and most parents will do this as long as they live__1.__. Here are four ways ‎ you can stay close, get along, and build a strong relationship.‎ Spend time together. It might be easy to be physically in the same place with your ‎ mom and dad.__2.__ Instead of playing a computer game or watching TV by yourself, ‎ maybe you should ask your mom and dad to play with you. You can go outside together, ‎ ‎ try a board game, or read a book together.‎ ‎__3.__ Many kids say they would like their parents to help them when they’re upset. ‎ But your mom and dad might not know that you’re having a problem. Tell your parents ‎ if you’re sad or struggling with something. If you don’t usually do this, give it a try and ‎ you will be glad.‎ Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mom and dad. _4.__It’s also lovely ‎ when a kid offers to help fold the laundry or cleans up his or her room without being ‎ asked.  And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents might ‎ be so excited!‎ Show your care. Some families are always kissing, hugging, and saying “I love you” .‎ ‎_5.__ In addition to kisses and hugs, kids and parents can show their love by respecting ‎ each other, being caring, polite, and thoughtful.‎ A. But how much time do you spend just enjoying each other’s company?‎ B. It’s important to show that you care for each other.‎ C. But parents do a lot more than just pass down their hobbies.‎ D. Share your feelings and ask for help.‎ E. Talk on the phone and email each other to stay in touch.‎ F. You can brighten your parents’ day with a hug, a card or a joke.‎ G. That means you have many years to share with your mom and dad.‎ 第二部分：英语知识运用（共二节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 ‎ 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D)中，选出最佳选项。‎ As a kid I loved everything about school. I loved books,_21___, tests and homework.
