Passage 1
Hidden Valley looks a lot like the dozens of other camps that dot the woods of central Maine.
There′s a lake, some soccer fields and horses. But the campers make the difference. They′re allAmerican parents who have adopted kids from China. They′re at Hidden Valley to find bridgesfrom their children′s old worlds to the new. Diana Becker watches her 3-year-old daughter Mikadance to a Chinese version of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." "Her soul is Chinese," she says, "butreally she′ s growing up American."
Hidden Valley and a handful of other "culture camps" serving families with children fromoverseas reflect the huge rise in the number of foreign adoptions, from 7,093 in 1990 to 15,774 lastyear. Most children come from Russia (4,491 last year) and China (4,206) but there are alsothousands of others adopted annually from South America, Asia and Eastern Europe. After cuttingthrough what can be miles of red tape, parents often come home to find a new predicament. "At firstyou think, ′I need a child′," says Sandy Lachter of Washington, D.C., who with her husband, Steve,adopted Amelia,5, from China in 1995. "Then you think, ′What does the child need′"
The culture camps give families a place to find answers to those kinds of questions. Most grewout of local support groups; Hidden Valley was started last year by the Boston chapter of Familieswith Children from China, which includes 650 families, while parents address weighty issues likehow to raise kids in a mixed-race family, their children just have fun riding horses, singing Chinesesongs or making scallion pancakes. "My philosophy of camping is that they could be doing anything,as long as they see other Chinese kids with white parents," says the director, Peter Kassen, whoseadopted daughters Hope and Lily are 6 and 4.
The camp is a continuation of language and dance classes many of the kids attend during the year.
"When we rented out a theater for′Mulan,′ it was packed," says Stephen Chen of Boston, whoseadopted daughter Lindsay is 4. Classes in Chinese language, art and calligraphy are taught byexperts, like Renne Lu of the Greater Boston Chinese Cultural Center. "Our mission is to preserve theheritage," Lu says.
Kids who are veteran campers say the experience helps them understand their complexheritage. Sixteen-year-old Alex was born in India and adopted by Kathy and David Brinton ofBoulder, Colo., when he was 7. "I went through a stage where I hated India, hated everything aboutit," he says."You just couldn′t mention India to me." But after six sessions at the East IndiaColorado Heritage Camp, held at Snow Mountain Ranch in Estes Park, Colo., he hopes to travel toIndia after he graduates from high school next year.
What can a culture camp help to do according to Peter Kassen
细节题。根据PeterKassen定位到第三段…Myphilosophy ofcampingisthatthey couldbedoing anything，as long as they see other Chinese kids with white parents，’says the director,Peter Kassen．"可见他的观点是“只要孩子们看到其他中国孩子能和他们的白人父母在一起做的，他们都可以做”，因此选B。A项“文化野营活动可以帮助被收养的儿童理解他们复杂的传统文化”，不是PeterKassen的观点。C项“文化野营活动可以帮助美国人从俄罗斯和中国收养更多孩子”．D项“文化野营活动可以帮助美国人从其他国家收养孩子”，这都与原文不符，也不是Peter Kassen的观点。

语言素材：
Yu Gong Moves a Mountain
Once upon a time，there was a very old man．There were two mountains near his house．They were so big and high that it took a long way to walk to the other side．The old man told his family that they should all help him to move the mountains．
Yu Gong said they could put them into the sea because it's big enough to hold everything．Yu Gong and his family began to move some of the soil and stone into the sea．
One day a mall saw Yu Gong and his children when they were working on moving the mountains．He told Yu Gong that he could never do it because he was old and weak．
As soon as the man finished talking，Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died．His family would live and grow，but the mountains could not get bigger．So Yu Gong and his family kept on digging day after day and year after year．
Finally，a god was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent two gods to take the mountains away．
This story reminds US that you can never know what’s possible unless you try to make it happen．

One question that all approaches of language teaching should answer is“_______”
Liberia，the oldest independent Negro state in West Africa，has been struggling for survival ever since its foundation in 1822．Progress has been hampered by constant hostility between the American
Negroes whose families returned there in the early 19th century，and the West Africans whose ancestors never left the continent．Though the two groups are of the same race，they are divided by language and outlook and regard each other with deep suspicion creating a conflict which was not foreseen by Liberia’s founders．
In addition，neighboring states，native tribe，disease，and poverty have made life dangerous and difficult．The government has tried desperately，through loans and a trickle of trade，to make ends meet．Anxiety about financial matters lessened somewhat when，in l910，the United States accepted responsibility for Liberia’s survival．However，not until Harvey Firestone，the American rubber king，
decided that the United States must produce its own rubber--with Liberia as the site of the rubber plantations-did Liberia have much hope of paying its debts and balancing its budget．
The rubber industry，founded in the l 920s，and the activity that followed it brought both progress and profit to Liberia．Before that time Liberia had DO roads，no mechanical transport and no good port；its people had little education and few tools．Liberians feel that the country is being ruled by rubber．
For this reason，the recent discovery of iron ore is important．Liberian leaders are trying to moderate the power of the rubber industry and to establish the country’s political and economic independence．
The best title for this passage is__________．
