I was about 5 when I first heard the word “Greenland”, and my interest grew from there. Finally, after decades, I decided to go.
When I finally arrived, the place, at first glance, was clearly misnamed: The east coast of Greenland was an expanse (宽阔的区域) of ice and snow, with no sign of human habitation.
One of my purposes of going to Greenland was to make contact with some native Greenlanders. I didn’t know I would achieve this, but success came in an unexpected way.
When I arrived at the Illunnguujuk Hostel, where I had reserved a bed, a young couple and their baby were out front, enjoying the sun and unusual warmth. Greenlanders speak their own Inuit language and learn Danish in school, and many also speak English well. The young woman, however, was not one of these. Her English turned out to be anticlimactic.
When I identified myself, her eyes widened. Another traveler had arrived earlier and, mistaking him for me, they had given him my bed. There was no more space in the hostel. “But don’t worry,” she said, as she threw herself into cleaning a tiny house the family owned. “This is for you,” she said. And as if that weren’t enough, she invited me to eat supper with her family. That evening I sat down to a dinner of fresh fish with a loving, happy native family.
When I first set foot in Greenland I found myself all but shocked by the emptiness, the vastness, and the silence. I had decided that I would probably never return. And then I was taken into this Greenlandic home. I can now say that even cold, empty, and silent scenery is worth visiting, so long as one has a warm and welcoming place to go to.
1.What did the author intend to do in Greenland?
A.Get a part-time job.
B.Live with a native family.
C.Make some native contact.
D.Do business with the natives.
2.What does the underlined word “anticlimactic” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Simple. B.Modem.
C.Outstanding. D.Disappointing.
3.The author lost his bed in the hostel because of .
A.the language barrier B.a misunderstanding
C.a wrong address D.the high price
4.What made the author’s visiting Greenland worthwhile?
A.Tasting the local food. B.Helping a local family.
C.Meeting friendly people. D.Enjoying the great scenery.
