A

According to RAGBRAI, columnist Donald Kaul and copy editor John Karras in 1973

published a short description about their intention to ride across the entire state. Any readers

equally crazy were welcome to join them.

The self-described "wannabe hippies（另类嬉皮士）”were surprised when they reached

the motel parking lot in Sioux City only to be greeted by some 250 bicyclists.

The modern RAGBRAI on its peak days now direct more than 20,000 riders from around

the globe into remote rural corners that thirst for such a tourism increase.

A woman named Marbro Rush-Osborn had reached out to RAGBRAI director T.J.

Juskiewicz because she had unearthed old photos of Kaul and Karras bicycling the rural Iowa

roads in 1971-two full years before our official two-wheeled activity.

Her late ex-husband, Larry Eckholt, was the Register's bureau chief in Iowa City in 1971

when Karras and Kaul decided that they would ride from Des Moines to Iowa City-a 125-

mile, 13-hour journey.

¨We went out to the west side of Iowa City to see them coming down the road," she

remembered.

The two journalists never had ridden more than 60 miles every time.

¨We used to bike from 44th street out to Waukee four times a week," Karras said. But

the Iowa City journey "put a whole different view on possibilities.” Yes, friends, this was the

ride on which Karras and Kaul more or less brainstormed RAGBRAI.

These rediscovered photos show the journalists with their wannabe-hippie hair blowing in

the window-not hidden beneath biking helmets.

21. What can we know about RAGBRAI?

A. It owns 20,000 riders in America.

B. It is popular worldwide.

C. It started with a formal cycling race.

D. It organized a riding across Sioux City in 1973.

B. Where will RAGBRAI go?

D. The history of RAGBRAI

B

Sometimes the best family vacations are those newly-planned trips that require just a little

bit of planning and a short drive in the car.

Boston to Fitchburg, Mass

TIME IN CAR: 1 HOUR

Drive northwest out of Boston to this city with a small-town feel. Then head indoors and

cool down as you enjoy the artwork at downtown Fitchburg Art Museum.

Pit stop: Historic Concord, Mass is the perfect place to stop for lunch.

Dallas to Grapevine, Texas

TIME IN CAR: 30 MINUTES

Kids will love the Grapevine Vintage Railroad in this historic town. Climb aboard trains

pulled by an 1896 steam locomotive (蒸汽机车) or a 1953 diesel engine (柴油机车) for a short

ride to and from the Fort Worth Stockyards.

Pit stop: the 5. 2-acre Nash Farm in Grapevine gives visitors a quick look at life in 19th-

century Texas.

Philadelphia to the Pocono Mountains

TIME IN CAR: 2 HOURS

Make a break from the City of Brotherly Love and head for the hills. Miles of trails are

perfect for hiking and biking, and sandy lakeside beaches are a great place to relax.

Pit stop: Stop at the Crossing Premium Outlets in Tannersville, Pa, and look through

more than loo stores for take-home gifts.

Washington to Williamsburg, Va.

TIME IN CAR: 3 HOURS

Pack up the family and head southeast to see Revolutionary War history come to life at

Colonial Williamsburg and Yorktown Victory Center, England's first colony at Jamestown.

The kids will be amazed at the way people used to make everyday items such as shoes and

baskets and they might just learn something, too.

There are several ways to become knowledgeable about different cultures. One way is to

read books written by authors from a particular culture. This allows people to gain a real look

into the culture.

For example, when a teacher wishes to expose his students to a different culture, he will

often read them stories based on the culture. To learn about various tribes of Native

Americans, he may read students books like The Rough Face Girl by Rafe Martin or The

Windigo's Return: A North Woods Story by Douglas Wood and Greg Couch. He may invite

Native American storytellers to visit the classroom so students can listen to authentic tales

from that culture.

Another way to learn about different cultures is to try to learn a foreign language. Many

language-learning books and audio programs are available. A person can choose a language he

has always wanted to learn and locate learning programs to help him master the language. If he

feels especially ambitious, he can attend a foreign language class. Making contact with native

speakers of the language allows him to gain firsthand knowledge of a particular culture as he

struggles to learn the language.

A person can learn about different cultures if he tastes authentic food from a specific

culture. Becoming familiar with a culture's authentic food is a giant step in the right direction.

Food allows people to gain insight into a special way of life.

Signing up for a pen pal deserves a try. The Internet has made it possible for people to

correspond with others from different countries just by logging on to the web. Corresponding

with people from other countries through e-mail or snail mail is another useful way to become

familiar with different cultures.

28. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that Douglas Wood is _ .

A. an American writer B. a famous American
