在墨西哥度假

Each year more travelers are finding their way to the sun coasts of Mexico; where ancient civilizations once honored the sun, modern sun worshippers are discovering superb vacation destinations. Airlines now schedule weekly flights from major national and international points to a variety of sun coast resort areas.

The peninsula of Baja California provides one of the most splendid vacation sites in the Western Hemisphere. The peninsula is divided into two states: Baja California Norte and Baja California Sur, which are now connected by the Benito Ju rez Trans-peninsular Highway, so that the entire peninsula can be easily reached by car, as well as by sea and air. A chain of new hotels offer deluxe accommodations, but there are also numerous camping grounds, trailer parks and wayside inns for those who prefer casual-living vacations. At the southern end of the peninsula, La Pazi San Jos del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas offer rapidly expanding deluxe facilities to accommodate the growing influx of visitors. All have good accommodations, restaurants, sports facilities and meeting rooms. In addition, La Paz, with its duty-free zone, is a shopper’s paradise.

Kino Bay, a coastal resort on the mainland near Hermosillo, is expanding and will soon offer new luxurious tourist accommodations.

South along the coast are Topolobampo and Los Mochis, the former a ferry terminus serving La Paz on the peninsula, and boasting the largest natural bay in the world; and the latter a starting point for the Chihuahua-Pacific Railway trip which goes through the breath-taking Copper Canyon to the city of Chihuahua.

Mazatlan, the sailfish capital of the world, has developed a large new resort complex to accommodate its many visitors. Famous for its jumbo shrimp and other delicious seafood, Mazatlan also offers seasonal bullfights, lively evening entertainment and big-game fishing. An international fishing tournament is held there each fall. Modem convention and sports facilities are available. Mazatlan is easily reached from other major cities by good high-ways and an international aiport.

Puerto Vallarta, once a sleepy fishing village, is now one of Mexico’s fastest growing resorts. The red-tiled roofs and cobblestoned streets contrast with the luxurious new hotels. The annual temperature averages around 80°F., offering a perfect climate for parasailing, skin diving, surfing and other aquatic sports. Evening entertainment includes seafood dinners, floor shows and disco dancing that lasts until daybreak. Big-game hunting and fishing are also popular within this region of coastal Mexico.

In Mazatlan, tourists can enjoy all the following except()

A.delicious seafood

B.watching seasonal bullfights

C.visiting a famous aquarium

D.evening entertainment

答案

阅读下面的文字,完成下列各题(15分)

母亲心中的月亮 柳 荫

(1)从很小的时候起,对中秋节最深刻的印象,就是一个圆字――月饼是圆的,苹果是圆的,葡萄是圆的,酒瓶是圆的,月亮是圆的……家更要团圆。就连中秋节全家聚餐,餐具都要细心挑选,挑没有残的碗,选圆形的盘子,摆放在圆的饭桌上,图个圆圆满满的吉利。那时呵,圆,好像就是过中秋节的企盼。

(2)长大工作到了外地,每逢中秋节,只要能够回家,总要赶回老家过节,满足母亲团圆的愿望。看到我节前赶回家,母亲就会眉开眼笑,第一句话准是:“老大赶回来了,这回好了,咱家又过个团圆节。”可见这团圆二字,对于作为家庭轴心的母亲,该是多么重要呵。我甚至于隐约地觉得,只有全家团圆了,这中秋节才属于母亲。否则,月饼再甜,水果再多,饭食再丰盛,美酒再醉人,月亮再圆润,都跟她没有关系,这时,反而让她更思念远方的我,后来思念中又增添两个下乡的弟弟。就是为了让母亲心中,这颗圆圆的皎洁月亮,在中秋节这天更明亮,我总是一年又一年,匆匆忙忙地奔回家过中秋节。

(3)父亲曾经告诉我说,我在异乡流放的那些年,母亲知道我中秋节回不了家,她总是在节前几天催促父亲,从邮局寄几块月饼给我。尽管在当地也有月饼卖,同样的香甜,同样的精致,但是在母亲的心目中,只有吃到家乡的月饼,她的儿子才是在她身边过节。千里迢迢寄的月饼,在我看来,分明是母亲的心啊。真难为母亲啦。

(4)其实,我又何尝不想回家呢?我又何尝不想团圆呢?只是身不由己呀。无数个中秋的夜晚,在远离亲人的地方,摆上父母寄来的月饼,常常是不忍心切开,先看看这个中秋夜晚,月亮圆不圆亮不亮,如果夜晚月亮又圆又亮,这才把月饼切开吃。倘若这中秋的月亮,被阴云严严遮住了,看不到那圆圆“玉盘”,就把月饼视为月亮,观赏一两天才切开吃,想以此慰藉远在家乡的母亲。我冥冥中相信,此刻的母亲,会知道儿子的心意。

(5)后来,渐渐习惯这中秋离别,再后来,慢慢父母相继地逝世,这中秋夜晚的月亮,是阴是晴是圆是缺,我似乎已经不再注意。就连这中秋月饼,好像也是可有可无,更没有当年过中秋节时,那股勃勃的心劲儿。这时有人提到中秋节,我总是“噢”地应一声,表示知道要过节而已。再再后来,自己到了父母在世时的年纪,每逢中秋节的夜晚,偶尔仰望高远太空,随便地瞅上一两眼月亮,至于月亮的境态如何,我已经全然没有兴趣。

(6)这时才真正地明白,天上的月亮,就是面高悬的明镜,照着人间万事万物。月亮本身都有阴晴圆缺,何况被月亮照着的人呢?想到这里,一切烦恼忧伤,荡然无存。心境如一片月光似的纯净。从此不再在意人间的冷暖厚薄,只想着生活过得像中秋月亮,年年如期地来,年年如期地去,哪怕被云遮雾蔽,都永远是从从容容地放光。中秋的月亮呵,不属于母亲,却属于了我。我没有母亲那么多的牵挂,就越发觉得月亮也是这般地平常,跟人生一样圆缺明暗全都自然。

(7)母亲走了许多年了,如今我还过中秋节,不过没有从前隆重。有时中秋想起赏月,在自家楼舍阳台上,随便走走看看月亮,不管今夕是圆是缺,眼前总会出现母亲身影。仿佛母亲总算有所领悟,此时来告诉她的儿女:“世界上的一切事情,都不可能总是不变,就如同中秋的月亮,时阴时晴时圆时缺,这才是真实的月亮。你们万万不可再追求诸事圆满哪。”可惜母亲和我,都领悟得迟了。

(8)这时再看天上月亮,它正在被云遮蔽着。可是不知为什么,此刻在我的心中,月亮,依然明亮,依然圆润,依然美丽……这时涌上心头的,常常是“人有悲欢离合,月有阴晴圆缺,此事古难全”的诗句。噢,读了,没有悲观的情绪,没有失望的感情,有的只是关于人生的深深思索。

小题1:下列对作品有关内容的分析和概括,正确的两项是:(5分)

A.“对中秋节最深刻的印象,就是一个圆字”的“圆”,在这里既有月饼、月亮、餐具等物品之“圆”,又有母亲渴望“团圆”的心理之“圆”。

B.第二段的画线句子运用五个“再”,跟“都”“反而”等构成了转折关系,在这里强调了我对回家过中秋的企盼和母亲在我心目中的重要意义。

C.作者之所以“一切烦恼忧伤,荡然无存”,是因为作者感情到月亮的阴晴圆缺正如人世间的悲欢离合,应该用坦然的心态去面对这无常的世事。

D.全文综合运用环境描写、心理描写、神情描写等手法,语言储蓄深沉,情感真挚,字里行间饱含着游子对漂泊他乡遭受苦难的深切倾诉。E.全文以“母亲对我的思念”为线索,通过母亲的“团圆”愿望、邮寄月饼及“我”匆忙回家过中秋节等描写,渲染了母子之间的牵挂和思念。

小题2:第三段中,母亲知道我回不了家便催父亲寄月饼,这表达了母亲怎样的情感?(4分)

小题3:文章结尾说,读了古诗“没有悲观的情绪,没有失望的感情,有的只是关于人生的深深思索”。在全文中,作者有哪些思索?请结合全文加以分析。(6分)
