An American explorer John Charles Fremont travelled through the area in the early 1800's. He found the land shaped like a bowl. So he named it the Great Basin. It is a land of unusual beauty and sharp differences. For example, you can climb a mountain covered with green forests, then cool yourself in a field of snow as you arrive at the top. Here and there, sharp rocks push out through the snow. Among the rocks you might see homes of the golden hawk (鹰), a bird that was once in danger of dying out. You can camp in a campground on the edge of Lehman Caves. These caves are a group of large underground rooms made of limestone (石灰石). You can walk through them for about a kilometre. Before the park opened, the caves were the centre of interests for anyone travelling through this area. The state of Nevada has wanted a national park for more than 60 years. There have always been the opposite ideas from people who believes that a park would harm(损害) mining and agriculture. The bill that set up the park, however, promises that mines will remain open, and that sheep and cows will continue to feed on the mountainsides. Lehman Caves are______.

W: Does it have three bedrooms？ M: No. There are two. The master bedroom is quite spacious though. Maybe you could let the children share the larger room, and you and your husband could use the smaller one. W: I suppose I could do that. M: A three-bedroom apartment will be difficult to find. W: Yes, I know. Believe me, I have been looking for over a week. The few three-bedroom apartments that I have found are either extremely expensive or the owner won't allow children as tenants. M: Well, the owner allows two children in this apartment complex. W: Aren't you the owner？ M: No. I am the manager. I live here, too, on the first floor of this building. W: Oh. That's nice. Then if anything gets broken... M: Just leave a note on my door. W: You said that the rent would be 350 dollars a month. Does that include any of the utilities？ M: Yes. It includes gas. Your furnace and stove axe gas, so, as you can imagine, your other utilities, electric and water, are quite inexpensive. W: This sounds better and better. But before I sign a lease I would like my husband to see it. M: Why not stop by with him this evening？ W: How late are you open？ He doesn't get off work until five. M: Come by at six. I will still be in the office. I am sure that you are eager to move from the hotel, and if we get the paper work out of the way tonight, you can move in tomorrow. W: Oh, that would be wonderful. (23) A．The woman's husband. B．The owner of the apartment. C．The apartment manager. D．The tenant who occupies the apartment now.

I have to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that three are as few as there are any other great artists. It might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit. My three teachers had these things in common: They all loved what they were doing; they did not tell, but stimulated a burning desire to know. Under their influence, the horizons sprang wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable. I shall speak only of my first teacher because in addition to the other things, she brought discovery. She aroused us to shouting, book-waving discussions. She had the noisiest class in school and she did not even seem to know it. We could never stick to the subject. Our speculation (思绪) ranged the world. She breathed curiosity into us so that we brought in facts or truths shielded in our hands like captured fireflies (萤火虫). She was fired, and perhaps rightly so, for failing to teach fundamentals. Such things must be learned. But she left a passion in us for the pure knowable world and she inflamed me with a curiosity which has never left. I have had many teachers who told me soon-forgotten facts but only three who created in me a new attitude a new hunger. What deathless power lies in the hands of such a person？ 21.
