The Horsetail Fall is one of Yosemite National Park's most amazing views. Around the second week of February, the setting sun hits the Horsetail Fall at just the right angle（角度）to light the upper parts of the waterfall. And when conditions are right, the Horsetail Fall becomes orange and red at sunset. It is like red-hot lava（熔岩）pouring down from the top of the EI Capitan. So, it got the name "firefall".

The firefall is a perfect match of the weather, the fall, the time and the watching place. It usually appears on dry, warm and cloudless days. There must be enough flowing water to make a firefall too. So there must be enough snow on the mountain top, and it turns into water on warm afternoons.

The sun goes to the best place before the fall in late February. And the best time to watch the fall is 5 to 15 minutes before the sunset. Only at this time can visitors see the firefall. The EI Capitan Picnic Area is the best place to watch, because it is close to the fall and is perfect to set up cameras and tents.

Every year in February, thousands of photographers come to watch the firefall. Although the view may appear just minutes before sunset, many of them have to come hours earlier to get a right place to set their cameras in time. "I'm just saying that the Yosemite Firefall is something you don't want to miss during the winter," says Kate Moore, a traveller and the lead content creator for ParkedInParadise. com.

(1)、Paragraph 1 mainly tells us ____.

A、how the firefall got its name B、why it's easy to see the firefall C、who was the first to find the firefall D、on which day we can visit the firefall

(2)、What can we know about the firefall?

A、It lasts for half an hour before the sunset. B、It usually appears on wet, warm and cloudy days. C、Rivers provide enough flowing water to make a fall. D、Its best watching place is the EI Capitan Picnic Area.

(3)、From the words of Kate Moore, we can infer that ____.

A、the firefall is worth seeing B、it's dangerous to watch the firefall C、the firefall brings little surprise D、it's a waste of time to visit the firefall

(4)、What does the underlined word "them" refer to?

A、Travellers. B、Photographers. C、Creators. D、Leaders.

(5)、What's the theme of the passage?

A、Art. B、Nature. C、Technology. D、History.

五、阅读还原（每小题3 分，共15 分）

19. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A. Mr. Purja was born in Nepal, in the Himalayas.

B. In 2018, he left there to follow his dream of mountain climbing.

C. He began on April 23, by climbing Annapurna in Nepal.

D. His goal was to climb all of them in less than seven months.

E. They had to deal with winds as fast as 75 kilometres per hour.

Nirmal Purja has set several world records after climbing the world's 14 highest mountains in less than seven months.

Though he was born l,600 meters above sea level, he didn't climb any serious mountains until he was 29.

But Mr. Purja was trained to be strong. He used to be a soldier in the British army, where he had special training for fighting in very cold weather.

There are only l4 mountains in the world that are higher than 8,000 metres. Mr. Purja had already climbed several of them. The old record for climbing the 14 mountains was seven years, ten months and six days. It was set by South Korean climber Kim Chang-ho in 2013.

Mr. Purja named his challenge "Project Possible". On October 29, just a little more than six months after he started, Nirmal Purja had finished climbing the l4th mountain.

Though Mr. Purja completed his challenge unbelievably quickly, it wasn't easy. For example, during one day of climbing Shishapangma, Mr. Purja and his team climbed for 15 hours nonstop.
