1．Activities to Get You Outdoors While Traveling Many of us would enjoy getting outside and escaping our day-to-day with some fresh air while traveling．But where do you start？Try out a few of these activities，and you're sure to find a new outdoor hobby to help you enjoy nature on your next holiday．
Horseback Riding
Many people may shy away from this，excusing lack of experience with horses，but most operators have horses for riders of any experience including none if they meet the physical requirements．Horses can take you greater distances in a shorter time，covering areas that would be difficult or inaccessible otherwise．
Fly-Fishing
For an excuse to stand in a river，enjoying the sounds，smells and scenery of some of the most beautiful places，try fly-fishing．Fishing is perfect activity to enjoy with children，grandparents or whoever．With enough practice，you may ever catch a delicious big fish．
Cycling +Mountain Biking
On the path or the road，spending time on a bike allows you to slow down and leisurely take in the scenery around you．Mountain biking can give you the biggest excitement，while road cycling may offer a more peaceful and calming experience．Travel with your bike or rent one at your travelling places，and your possibilities for exploration have already increased．
Rock Climbing
For a more physical and challenging experience outdoors，try your hand at rock climbing．You can get a feel for climbing in a gym，but its real rewards lie in putting those skills to use outside．Many popular travel places have great climbing within a day-trip distance．

2．Granny had just bought a sandwich for her office and was stopped at a red light in the city center．She had the window rolled down to enjoy the soft wind when a man rushed up to the driver's side window to rob her．The robber broke into the open window with one hand in his pocket．He ordered Granny to get out of the car，or he would shoot her．A word like that would have frightened anyone else．Instead，Granny saw it as a challenge．
Completely unafraid，she said that if he really had a gun，he would have pulled it out．She was right．The criminal had no gun actually and tried to pull her out of the car．Granny sounded the horn and started shouting out to draw others' attention．With the door now open，she started kicking the man anywhere her foot could reach．After a kick to his stomach，the man attempted to escape．But Granny wouldn't stand for that．It was now her turn to grab onto him．That poor fool didn't have a chance．She called for help to bystanders，and they rushed to her aid．With Granny leading the charge，a group of strangers came together and took the man to the sidewalk，holding him there until the police came．
When asked by a young reporter covering the story why she fought back and wasn't afraid，Granny's answer was surprisingly simple：She had had her new car for less than two days and a pack of good sandwiches for her office．And there was no way for the robber to get either of those．Although we were angry with her because she could have gotten herself killed，we all learned an important lesson from her that day．

3．Most of Earth's freshwater sits underground．Worldwide，about 70 percent of the groundwater drawn to the surface goes for farming．But surface waters-rivers and streams come from groundwater，too．Drawing too much groundwater over a short time can be harmful．Natural waterways can begin to empty．And that car hurt freshwater ecosystems．Scientists consider this a tipping point when small actions can begin making unusually big differences．
A new study has found that 15 to 21 percent of tapped water（自来水）areas have reached this sort of tipping point．Most of those tapped rivers and streams are in dry areas．Farmers in rates these areas use groundwater to water their crops．At present drawing rates，the study predicts that 42 to 79 percent of water areas around the world where groundwater is drawn up for use at the surface will reach tipping points by 2050．
A healthy groundwater aquifer（含水层）protects ecosystems against seasonal ups and downs in the use of water．That provides stability for area plants and animals．But if too much groundwater is drawn up from below，surface waters will begin to flow into the aquifer，which can harm what are living in rivers and streams．
De Graaf and the study team set up a computer model．It linked groundwater drawing and water flows within rivers．The model covered fifty years，from 1950 to 2010．Then the researchers used climate forecasts to help the model predict what might happen in future years．Throughout，they kept groundwater drawing rates sustainable．More than half of drawn water areas are likely to cross this ecological tipping point before 2050，the model finds．
"We need to be thinking about this now，not in 10 years，" De Graaf says． "Our study shows us where to target more sustainable efforts．"
（1）What does the "tipping point" in paragraph 1 mean？
A．End point．
B．Breaking point．
C．Freezing point．
D．Boiling point．
（2）Which of the following causes the "tipping point"？
A．Water pollution．
B．Climate change．
C．Increasing population．
D．Overusing groundwater．
（3）What is the part the groundwater plays in the environment？
A．Clearing surface waters to be drinkable．
B．Protecting ecosystems from pollution．
C．Keeping the stability of natural water．
D．Providing stability for the local economy．
（4）How did the researchers conduct the study？
A．They predicted the result based on old data．
B．They happened to work out the result．
C．They measured all the groundwater and surface water．
D．They did questionnaire surveys on the water information．组卷：6引用：3难度：0.5
