## 题目原文

00:00:00,220 
 Part two. 
 00:00:02,200 
 You will hear the warden of a nature trail talking to a group of people who are interested in hiking on the trail. First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to fourteen. 
 00:00:20,480 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions eleven to fourteen. 
 00:00:52,240 
 Good morning. I'm Susan Meyer, trail warden for the McFadden Hiking and Nature Trail. Let me tell you a bit about the trail. 
 00:01:02,160 
 The trail is twenty-five miles long, running roughly east to west. 
 00:01:08,100 
 To hike it, you may start at either end of the trail or in between. 
 00:01:14,160 
 You can hike the whole length of the trail or just a couple of miles because there are twenty entry points along the trail, each connected to public roads by short paths. 
 00:01:27,620 
 For hikers coming from Johnson City, there's a shuttle bus to each of the two endpoints every morning and evening. 
 00:01:36,440 
 And four of the entry points have a free car park with television camera surveillance. 
 00:01:43,260 
 At one-mile intervals along the trail, there are rest stations providing picnic areas, water, toilets, and places where you can recharge your electronic devices. 
 00:01:56,520 
 In response to a poll of walkers last year, we've recently installed kiosks at each rest station with clear, easy-to-follow maps and other trail information. 
 00:02:08,900 
 There are several distinct sections of trail. The Red Rock Walk offers a superb opportunity to study a huge variety of vegetation along the way. 
 00:02:21,360 
 There's lots to look at, though you can't see great distances. 
 00:02:27,000 
 Birds are actually hard to spot, 
 00:02:30,460 
 but with a pair of binoculars and at certain times of day, you may see some rare varieties. 
 00:02:38,810 
 The River Walk comprises about five miles of trail winding along the bank of the Mulder River. 
 00:02:46,660 
 Personally, I prefer this section of the trail in winter. The river does freeze over, and the snow can accumulate, but that doesn't always discourage visitors. 
 00:02:59,440 
 Sometimes, though, if the weather conditions are really unsuitable, we might have to close this walk to the public. 
 00:03:07,860 
 But often it can get crowded with hikers who've discovered the attraction of the area. 
 00:03:16,660 
 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions fifteen to twenty. 
 00:03:33,840 
 Now listen and answer questions fifteen to twenty. 
 00:03:59,620 
 Now let me tell you about the Halfway Hostel, located approximately midway along the trail. It has a range of facilities available to help make your walking experience memorable. 
 00:04:12,329 
 Let me give you some information about the various facilities available there. 
 00:04:17,720 
 Of course, there are beds in dormitories for use at a very reasonable seven dollars per person, weekdays or weekends. 
 00:04:26,469 
 Unfortunately, we found that pre-booking beds just didn't work, so now we allocate them as people arrive. But we have extra cots and sleeping bags to help with any overflow. 
 00:04:39,760 
 There are two family rooms accommodating six people each with private bathrooms. They're thirty-five dollars per room, and for them, you will need to make arrangements ahead of time as they're very popular, especially at the weekends. 
 00:04:56,640 
 A popular facility that we've recently added is coin-operated washing machines for your clothes. You can get awfully wet and dirty if you're walking the trail in bad weather. And since we got these machines, you can put on clean gear when you set out in the morning. 
 00:05:16,780 
 The hostel serves two meals a day, breakfast at four dollars and dinner at eight dollars. The same for adults and kids. There's always a vegetarian and a non-vegetarian option, depending on your preferences. 
 00:05:33,760 
 We do ask you to give a hand with serving and cleaning up after meals. 
 00:05:39,240 
 We have plenty of showers and unlimited hot water available, so you can have this luxury at no charge, and you can enjoy it as long as you like. 
 00:05:49,580 
 Now, some people like to spend time on the trail on mountain bikes and maybe take a bit of a rest from all that walking, and that's permitted as long as you observe basic safety rules. 
 00:06:03,480 
 The hostel's in the process of creating a bike rental scheme, which should be up and running next year. 
 00:06:10,280 
 So if you think that... 
 00:06:15,940 
 That is the end of part two. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part two.
