24、 Once upon a time, a young man wanted to go to a village on business. Halfway there was a mountain. Before he left home, his family warned him to stay calm and climb onto trees if he was in face of beasts(野兽). In this way, the beasts couldn’t do anything to him. The young man remembered these words and began his trip.

The tiger roared(咆哮) around the tree and even jumped to reach the man. The young man was too scared to hold the tree and fell right on the back of the tiger. Full of fear, he had to hold the tiger tightly. The tiger thought that must be a giant beast. So it was afraid and started running madly.
People on the road didn’t know what happened and said, “Look at the young man. He is riding a tiger!” “Cool!” “Superman!”

25、
Machu Picchu is one of the world's most impressive historical sites. It was built around 1450 by the Incas, who ruled most of South America at that time. They called themselves children of the Sun.
Located in the Andes Mountains of Peru, at 8000 feet above sea level, the “City of the Incas” was mysteriously abandoned (遗弃) just 100 years after it was built. This was when the Spanish were beginning their conquest of the Inca Empire, in the 1530s. There is no evidence that the Spanish ever reached mountaintop city, so many believe that the site of the city was given up because of a small pox epidemic(天花疫情).
The city was almost forgotten until 1911, when it was discovered by an American historian, Hiram Bingham, after he heard rumors (传言) of its existence. Bingham was led to the site by local farmers and was amazed by what he saw, which seemed like an unbelievable dream. He wondered if anyone would believe what he had found.
Though the surrounding jungle had overgrown the site, what remained was impressive. The city had been built on a faraway mountaintop, often covered in clouds. Forty rows of falling terraces (梯田) hugged the steep mountainside, each over 10 feet high, and linked together by over 3000 stone steps. Among the city were what appeared to be neighborhoods of homes, and beautiful stone buildings that are thought to be temples. Even today, the mystery remains as to the purpose of these temples, how the city was used and what its citizens did.
Machu Picchu has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. Every year, thousands of people travel to Peru to admire its magnificent stonework and breathtaking design. What they see is a wonderful harmony (和谐) between the city and the landscape around it.

【3】It can be inferred that the relationship between the city and scene around it is________.

A.To tell the history of Machu Picchu. B.To explain why Machu Picchu was abandoned.
