9、e minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it. Suddenly, the rain stopped and the clouds cleared. The sun rose behind me and shone on the rocks. Far below me, the ground fell away and down to a river. I was looking across one

10、 of the wonders of the natural world -the Grand Canyon. I looked down to the Colorado River, a silver stream nearly one mile below me. If you put the two tallest buildings in the world on top of each other at the bottom of the canyon, they still would not reach the top. Then I looked across to the o

11、ther side of the canyon. It was about fifteen miles away, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon went far away for more than 200 miles.

15、ght c all it “a drop in the bucket” . These sayings dont mean exactly what the words say .But its easy to tell why we use them. Blue is a cool, quiet color.So its a good word for “sad”. A bucket holds too many waste drops to count. So just one drop is very little. Some sayings are difficult to under

16、stand. When you go to bed, you “hit the hay（甘草）”. If you want to know the meaning of the saying, you must know where it came from. It was first used in the 1930s. At that time, many Americans were out of work. Some went from place to place，looking for jobs. At night they were very tired. They often

17、made a bed of hay in a field or barn. As soon as their heads “hit the hay”, they fell asleep. Here is another saying. When you are not feeling well，you might say you are “under the weather”.

21、story 27. How is the passage organized? D “Are you cold?” This is a question Ive heard many times since I came to China.

22、little in winter. But when my Chinese friends refuse to eat or drink cold things, even during the hot summer, I become the one who is confused.

23、 drinks are bad for their digestion （消化）. One friend even told me that cold drinks, such as ice water, can cause the fat in our stomach to become solid（固体）. But after doing some research of my own, I wasnt sure whether it was true or not. According to an article I read on the website, the food that
