On the way out, I asked them to wait while I ran up to El Capitan, a 　　 rock of 3,300 feet straight up. I touched that giant rock and knew 　　 　 I wanted to climb it.

History of amusement parks takes us back to the bar-periodic fairs, like the Bartholomew Fair which started in England. These can be considered a parent for the modern amusement park. Opening in the Elizabethan period, the fair had developed as a center of amusement with entertainment with fun, food, games, and many other attractions. The beer festival held in Munich, Germany which started in 1810 and the country and state fairs in the US, also played a part in the brief history of amusement park. Unlike the Bartholomew Fair, these annual events were usually held during an important time when crops were ripe, which deserved to be marked.

Amusement parks are also known to have grown out of the pleasure gardens that became very popular at the start of the Industrial Revolution. These were the zones where one could shun the dull urban life for a short while. We can find the oldest and still-surviving amusement park in the world: Bakken in Denmark, which opened in 1583. These parks consisted of fireworks displays, rides and the modern railroad to accommodate the growing expectations from their customers.

Another turning point in the history of amusement parks was the world’s fairs which began in 1851. The Crystal Palace in London, England was a landmark and celebrated the industrial achievements of the world. These were seen as symbols of economic and industrial success. In the last decade of the 19th century, the electric trolley lines became extremely popular. Mechanical amusements, dance hall, sports fields, and restaurants were included as regular entertainments, as the history of amusement parks reflects.

The golden age in the brief history of amusement parks didn’t appear until people especially Americans spent less time on work and got a steady rise in their personal income. A number of amusement parks including the Kiddie Park were set up outside major cities and in the countryside, to make full use of this new economic opportunity. The original Kiddie Park is located in San Antonio, Texas and is still in operation today.

1.What was the purpose of the early Munich beer festival?

A.To show local attractions. B.To celebrate harvest together.

C.To found a center of amusement. D.To create a stable agricultural market.

2.What does the underlined word “shun” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Avoid. B.Tolerate.

C.Experience. D.Complain.

3.What made the amusement parks fully developed?

A.The Industrial Revolution. B.More time and money for fun.

C.Advances in technology. D.Development of the world’s fairs.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Bakken was originally opened in 1583 in London.

B.The Crystal Palace is the oldest amusement park in the world.

C.The Kiddie Park located in San Antonio is still open at present.

D.The Bartholomew Fair was seen as economic and industrial success.
