Reading Comprehension
25 For years, millions
of Americans and people from around the world have
crowded
into the well-known major
parks. They have read the travel literature or
heard firsthand
reports about these
wonders, and naturally they've had to see for
themselves.
At times, visiting some
of our parks has become more like rubbing elbows
at a jam-
packed Major League baseball
game than sensing the solitude of the wilderness.
We have
tried to see the most and the
best in the least amount of time. We have jumped
into cars
and campers and rushed off to
cover a dozen parks in a week or two-madly
snapping
photographs as we go.
26 According to the
passage, many Americans visit the major parks
because ______.
（
A
）
they like the well-known
major parks
（
B
）
they want to gain the same
knowledge as others
（
C
）
they want to show the
pictures of those parks to their friends
（
D
）
they don't care for line historic parks
27 We can infer from the
passage that
（
A<
/p>
）
people should not visit
several parks superficially
（
B
）
people should
not spend more time thinking about the park itself
（
C
）
people should visit the famous parks in
America
