Welcome to Yellowstone National Park. Before we begin our nature walk today, I’d like to give you a short history of our National Park Service. The National Park Service began in the late 1800’s. A small group of explorers had just completed a month-long exploration of the region that is now Yellowstone. They gathered around a campfire, and after hours of discussion, they decided that they should not claim this land for themselves. They felt it should be accessible to everyone.
So they began a campaign to preserve this land for everyone’s enjoyment. Two years later, in the late nineteenth century, an act of Congress signed by President Ulysses S. Grant proclaimed the Yellowstone region a public park. It was the first national park in the world. After Yellowstone became a public park, many other areas of great scenic importance were set aside and in 1916 the National Park Service was established to manage these parks.
As a park ranger, I am an employee of the National Park Service. In a national park, park rangers are on duty at all times to answer questions and help visitors in any difficulty. Nature walks. Guided tours, and campfire talks are offered by specially trained staff members. The park service also protects the animals and plants within the parks.
8. Who is the speaker?
9. According to the speaker, who originated the idea of a public park?
10. What does the speaker say about Yellowstone National Park?
11. According to the speaker, what is one of the duties of a park ranger?
选项
A、Several explorers.
B、Representatives of Congress.
C、President Grant.
D、A group of animal lovers.
答案
A
解析
19世纪末,一小群探险者在现在的黄石公园地区进行了为期一个月的勘探之后,通过讨论一致认为他们不应该认领这片土地,而应该让大家都可以享受到这片土地的自然风光,于是发起了一场运动。两年后,黄石公园被President Gra.nt确立为第一个国家公园。可见,国家公园这一想法最早是由这群探险者想到的。
